    you got good taste mate!
  2. hi mate, still interested in the typhoon frame?

  3. Aha ! cheers boss, i'l deffinately look into a Shimano or equally strong lever boby, thanks for all your help
  4. Cheers mate, and yeh i suspec there probably was but i love the feel of it too much to scrap the brake lol Thanks for you comments
  5. Hey, i've got a Magura Marta, was a gorgeous disc until i caught the lever on a bollard when i forgot the width of my riser bars (by the way, scaffolding on pavements should be banned ) so i've got a lovely snapped lever I've looked around a bit but i can't seem to find any info or levers that would fit for sure, anyone have any suggestions please feel free to write away Cheers Joel
  6. GET RID OF THAT 22T !! the general gearing for most average riders is 12 on the rear, 18 front, works for me, CLS and most other people Have a look in the f/s section there's some bargains on ENO freewheels, if you can bag yourself one of those you'll be sorted, if not the Tensile's are the next best thing as the 108.2 Monty ones explode with too may engagements and the try-all one's skip (i think ). Hope that helps a bit Joel
  7. dropping 16 pallets gotta be my P.B working on gapping aswell now, just got over a bike length on the flat so im pretty chuffed with those two
  8. There was some MENTAL riding in there ! THe first vid i've seen in a long time that made me actually go "he's not gonna go there...Oh My God..." Can't wait for another one, Keep it up lads Joel
  9. Yup, bang on, but the T-Comp is just an '06 T-Pro frame in blue, bit of a cop-off onza ...saying that the T-Pro was a pretty solid starter bike so it look's pretty good for £420.00 Joel
  10. Love it, music's a bit heavy but suits the video, some really god riding goin on there, straight up to handrail=pretty impressive Keep it up lads Joel
  11. too right ! Bike Mania is a class game, the luuugggee one is super hard but bike mania is just challenging and soo fun !!
  12. 1. Im not sure who has seen him but i'm pretty sure it was a dude that created the company in the 40's . 2. haven't got a clue mate ! 3. Nope, they're part of the ZOO!, Adamant, Echo group in China 4.I run citrus pads and i love 'em ! I'm not too sure about the heatsink's but i can't imagine they do 5.Water is always the easist one to go for, WD40 is an accident waiting to happen, if you get yourself a bit of clear hose you can put some food dye in with the water to match your color scheme, looks pretty fly Joel
  13. Yeah I know what you mean, they're not as tall so they flex less=they're stronger, but I just got an Echo '07 wheelbuild and its soo nice, the new hubs are smooth as silk and the allen key hole goes striaght through the whle hub not just the nut on the outside of the frame so you CAN'T round the buggers off. The rim has koxx sized holes so its a lot stronger than the '06 rim, deffinately go for it mate
  14. Lovely bike mate love the color, pretty rare you see a bike as unique as that ! Im really interested if it's still up for grabs, i've got a custom T-Mag so maybe you'd fancy a swap ? Cheers, oh and u can add me on MSN onzadude@yahoo.co.uk if that'd be easier
  15. Lovely bike mate, the yellow's great, you can always find a black or polished frame, but not a luminous yellow one ! I'm really interested in buying it if it's still up for grabs, I've got a custom T-mag, don't know i'f you'd like 2 swap with a little cash to go with it on my end . If not how much would you be looking for ?
  16. coulda been one funny bail on that bench but you nailed it in the end mate wats this i hear about the Bunny's gone..forever ?!! nice lil' movie mate, music goes quite strangely well with trials !
  17. Hey, cheers for all your comments, the guy that said welding it up would help, I don't need it, it works fine (apart from the ridiculously low gear ratio !) I've got a new wheel build coming down, Echo '07 Blue rim, same hub and munity black spokes, gonna look mint
  18. Heatsink blues are good, but personally I have found the new cheapie Onza citrus pads great couldn't believe they were outperforming pads nearly twice their price... http://82.110.105.16/tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?id=2003
  19. Yeah i think you kinda hit the nail on the head. We only did it because we had no choice and it was quite fun to see working ! The gear is stupidly light though, 18-12 = 18-18 (2 freewheels) = . I'll try and get some photos up now. thanks for all your comments. Right, signed uptp Photo bucket and im now officially a me , here's a few photos of my contraption...
  20. Right i've got a bit of an interesting situation here. My s#*t rear onza hub went bang the other day so I was off riding for a bit until my mate Ben found an old wheel I could use. We took my wheel off, but we couldnt get the 12T cog off my wheel and we couldn't get the old freewheel off his wheel so we tried it with 2 freewheels. I was adament I was going to take one pedal and the whole thing would fall apart in a big metallic bang, I was completely wrong it works absolutely fine ! We were standing there trying to work out how it worked ?! all comments welcome and i can put some photos up if someone would enlighten me as to how to do it, can't figure it out . Cheers Joel W-J
  21. I've got a tensile myself and i bloody love it ! never skips, has never come loose and its great value, deffinately go for one. The pedals my mate got some and they are too grippy, u cant adjust your foot on the peadl without taking chunks out of your shoes ! I would go for eithe DMR V8's, or the Wellgo replicas, the V8's are £9 cheaper, and the wellgos are £22 cheaper, which would get you the heatsink blues for the front . the wellgos are decent, i have a pair and they have never gone even slightly wrong, the pins wear down quite quickly but to a certain point so you can adjust your foot, but not rip your shoes to shreads, hope that helps a bit mate !
  22. That should just be it so give them a few days of heavy-ish riding and see how they are. If they're still crap try fiddling with 'em
  23. Looks great ! perfect song, i use Lost Prophets quite a lot to good effect That HAUGE wall gap by the sea was immense Rinding is awesome keep it up lads
  24. Yeh they're alrigh but i've got a louise FR which was great straight out of the box but i got it cheap, i would never spend the full price on it. The new avids and Hayes mech brakes are just as good and a LOT easier to fix, fiddle and tweak
  25. Great photos ! not one...but 2 thumbs up mate Love the editing you've done aswell, wait 2 see some more ASAP
