  3. yup but if you google it and go from there it works tried it with keepvid and dosent work
  4. Take front freewheel off and try spacer my TI bash is enough to space it out on my rockman
  5. Drop out wont be square onto hub, more stress on welds, wheel moves about dropout more i tried it didnt go well for me I eventually took it to a local bike shop (wheel craft) and they let me use their stand and try various bb, spacers chains got a perfect line and a gap between chain and frame was a long slow proscess but word great no wheel moving until the frame cracked
  6. Had this problem on my DOB. I tried a smaller/no spacers on cog on rear hub, to move in/out , smaller/no spacers on cranks to move freewheel in/out, bottom bracket lenghts, thinner chains i eventually got the right combination , i also wouldnt recomend spreading the frame out with washer yea its a easy fix but not a good idea Tarty have spacers for hub and freewheel http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/hub_spares/tryall_sprocketfreewheel_spacer/c22p11328.html
  7. Just watched the FULL serise of Bob. For me this is what trials is all about fun and the hardship of the sport
  8. Finally some one i agree with im only 5"4 and i struggle with heights and need more technique and not getting any younger nearly in my 30s, i really envy young people who can pick things up quickly and tall people but i think dani rides to his ability and will be good to see him push benito in the comps next year

  10. Yea very true mate just need more effort i think and i am sick of hearing england this that snow on tv thats why the rant. Well the snow was level with number plate and another 1.5 ft fell after that when i dug it out lol I shovelled my wee heart out the days off, i dug my space and kept it off main road and cleared roads to get about. I have a 1 year old girl and need about ie nursary/work shops i wont get stuck in, every time i went out someone else would block road and he/she wheel spin like mad and get stuck and slide into parked cars i said get out i will do it and get it going again or they brake down and toe them away . On main roads there were parked car BOTH sides. Side streets wernt passable so only single track roads on main, then someone else would come other way,what to do, we look at each other and decide either to reverse all the way back or plough into 3 or 4 foot wall of snow/ ice left at side of road. Trees were falling due to snow stuck on branches and fell on car was epic and i had blisters on hands good times . Diesel froze 2nd year running (-20 at one point) scarry when it cuts out and on single track road no where to go now 3-4 inches of snow a breeze to drive I spent 3 hours to get my passat from my car park to main road just digging and then dug a space just off main road to still be mobile.One day i came back and some one STOLE myspace was ragging a total of 5 hours digging over a week keeping that space clear so i could get in and out. This all sound alot but most people i know done the same as me so get digging. the M8 up here got hit bad and closed with vehicles still on it overnight madness then it opened and was hard ice all over it and was like a rally, really bumpy off road feeling or going slow was like a pimp my ride car up down up down up down smillar to speed bumps on a motor way lol if yous get a few feet of snow really good luck!!!!!!
  11. SO why does it cause so much chaos on roads too and not just airports, just saying Scotland copes better even though more snow and we have less equipment less money and less people i know about the equipment cause i fix them. Englands get all new trucks, buses, council vehicles and after 4 years use they ship them to us and i fix them cause there done in replace engines/gearboxes thats most of the cases (ie ex london ) The last few weeks i drove 4 cars out of 2.5foot of snow stuck in, dug 3 cars out and shoveled 2 streets and also my car park and jump started 2 cars Any of yous done that?????????? Then why not Getting stuck and shoveling for 2-3 hours a day was routine for a while at home and keepcar park space clear so i dont have to abandon my car on main road and then gritter/ploughs cant get down thats what happened here still a fw lying thats why yous go in a state of panic, We all chip in ,salt, shovel, blanket, water some food all in boot of my car its not just down to councils to clear roads we should all do our bit AND I wouldnt have to put tv on and here is about snow in england again wouldall be fine
  12. Funny that England gets a few inches of snow and its all over the news, gridlock, airports shut, chaos. However over the last weeks Scotland and my area Cumbernald was well over 2 feet almost close to 1 meter and not a word on the news not only that there was no ploughs or grit we all had to dig the streets ourselves including car park spaces , get to work because there was a possibilty we would not get paid and carry on. Main roads turned into car park so people could go to work some streets to big to dig i got stuck at least a few times a day daily and one of the days was -20c So why cant England not cope they have more money/people/equipment ?????????????????????????????????????? Right now all scottish airports open and at least a few inches lying. Heathrow however???
  13. Cant agree any more built for what it does, since when looks are more important than form, looks dont help you improve do they? If they had a choice £XXXXXXX amount for a budget for manufacturing bikes and customers to buy They and we Spend £XXX on better geo and stronger/lighter materials/parts and dosent look great and lasts ORRRR They and we Spend £XXX on paint/ stickers names colour schemes and rides like crap snaps breaks like last few models you pick
  14. I've never used glue before . Always made sure its a good fit and squashed them in vice, will give them a try though ran coust cnc backings on the base from 6/7 years ago and many pads on different bikes. Untill my rockman which i got this summer and used tnn and gave wife the coust running out of pads all worn over the years koxx browns/green/ yellows heatsink blue/red, coust pads, lol zoo pads were the worst really soft
  15. What if there slightly smaller cant cut them down then? Thats why i am asking if any one has tried if smaller they will be loose. TNN seem to be slimmer backings could be wrong though
  16. I have a set on old coust cnc backings with original koxx browns in them very worn and was wondering if anyone has tried LGM Re-Fills in them. Its for another bike ( wifes bike ) and i run a TNN set up on mine, so more than happy to use their pads on other bike and would save from buying backings
  17. Correct me if i am wrong Chain tensioner is interesting no snail cam bolts Edit i see a stub ???? whats the idea in this then less chance of movement. Why dont they make a semi moon shape so the snail cam sit almost inside more contact less movement
  18. thanks for the advice got a smooth (very worn) try-all on front was wanting to try something eles might stick to try-all as you suggested
  19. mmm loving that whats the final weight What size is the kenda tire not sure what size to get??
  20. Man after seening the pics im gutted i was not fit to make it, more pics please and the results if possible
  21. Yea got to remember the other factors : Frame, Rim type, Clamps, Booster, Grind type, Brake system can all have an effect. You got to play around a little like ali c said, every one is different My past favs were koxx browns but I have tried Koxx yellow coust cnc,heats sinks red and blues all on differant frames, rims, grinds over the years and was not over impsressed but tried lgm and was feeling the same so tried some boosters 2 and 4 bolt still the same until i tried the tnn clamps and booster then thought wow wish i bought these ages ago, even in wet i feel safe still the same noise performance will never change to anything else more than happy and impressed they work to my high standards beeing a mechy engineer Check out my pink bike page to see all bikes set ups
