gayyy, my first comp of the year and its canceled do they normally re schedule them or just cancel it all together! i got the day of work and everything

haha just me and chris! no rain

cool, if you want chris we could go down earlyier like 5 ish then other people can come when they wanna? ill pm you my number!

okay, ride at 6.30 ish meet guils hall? chris i could give you a lift if you want in my shit mobile

im going, my first comp in 2 years or so! be coming down by myself though! gay looking forward to it

dont mind on time, im rather flexiable, could make it wednesday instead if its more suitable!? would rather be day time though. 11 ish mo fo

just been to the site where the accident happened and i was over welmed by the amount flowers and tributes hat have been left for nick in just couple of days. was really sad to see the amount of comments left there. there was even a few bike parts left there which probally used to belong to him. rip mate

hobbsie at hampshire comp, back in 2005 i think taken from the old denmeand bike trials website

anyone up for it?

theres no picture looking forward to hopefully having a little ride on this

24"

was a 2.4 but now running a slight smaller 2.2

common guys, any type of frame and geo you want. could be a good chance to get your 24" street frame or a replica of any of your frav bikes. all for around £100 quid altogether too. also completely steel which will mean it can be mended by a local welder if it cracks without any worry.

its all fun apart from these slippy hot s tires! i ended up doing a bit of drifting on some single track because off them last weekend

i think that would be a great idea, hobbsie was about one of the only riders ive met who inspired me when i rode with him. wish i could only ride with him one more time.

this is stupid, i cant really express in words. nick hobbs was one the most most social, happy and funnyest people. i feel gutted that i havat spoken to him in the last couple of years. i remeber riding with nick for the first time, way before i joined this forum. it was in portsmouth when we bumped into each other on his old giant! rode with him loads of time years ago. will truely be missed! i hate the world we live in which takes away precious life, where people can take a life this easliy.

i think from what we have been told already that this is true, but it seems any more information we should contact marino directly to get a quote. thats what im doing!

lever wise i would go for a shimano, i use a old xt lever and its great. i used to use an avid sd7 and they just dont feel as comfortable as any of the shimano range. by the sounds of it your just looking for a cheap alternative for now, so any lever would work really.

just out of interest does he also make xc frames also at a similar price? the frames look lush. any idea on weight, im guessing there not going to be amazingly light weight! i may also look into getting a street frame

im actually currently looking for a deep 19 tooth sprocket for the rear, my 18 tooth seems to heavy. cheers for the comment

its a kinda creamy white, but done poorly bars are some over sized backspire dh ones with a 1 1/2" rise. feels good to me.

hey just to show of my rides really. my ashton justice for the trials and my dmr trailstar for agreesive xc, free rides/ everything. picture quality on the justice is abit rubbish! cheers

cheers ill look in to both of them. im not up to date with all the pads that are available now, my mentality is still stuck in the past where the only good magura pads were plaz pads or koxxs brown

hey all im looking for a good set of v brake pads. basically my v plaz pads have just fallen apart, they gave amazing grip but with no modulation and gave a really flexy feel, which i didn't like. atm i have shimano standard pads on there which are hardly locking with gaps to front wheel, etc. can anyone recommend some good hard compond v pads? something like koxx browns but in v form? cheers

i wouldnt really think it would be worth it in my opinion, i have never had a problem with using ether the 04 or the new current levers. they both provide excellent locking potential, anything else is over kill. imo they only other levers i liked in the past is the rb levers, so comfy.
