  1. the other day i managed to cross thread one of the holes in my 4 bolt mounts in my frame (saracen m.a.d) there is still some thread in there as i managed to put a bolt into it but i should think it will get worse over time when the thread eventually dies what do i do? I could tap a new thread myself but im not sure is there some kind of specialist way of doing it. What is helicoiling by the way, Thanks
  2. i put on my rear maxxis minion today the dual ply side walls make my previous tyre (halo knobbler) look like poop! After about 30minutes of riding i can feel the difference the tyre feels pretty thick and strong and grip good 2 i would definately recomend a maxxis minion or highroller.

  8. All you need is a 9mm allen key and a bb tool that costs like £5 why not just do it yourself. But let him do the headset.
  9. It depends what suits you better, what you ride better on and what you feel good on. Isn't it usually that taller people have longer frames. But shorter frames are easier on the back wheel normally.

  15. What was that earlier about someone wearing reebok classics and they can't ride trials some people are just sad. Just cos you wear reeboks dosent mean your a chav, and i suppose if you don't wear jeans or skate type clothes it makes you a chav too? huh?
