poopipe Posted September 7, 2007 Report Share Posted September 7, 2007 try it without the arm bit first. ermpull the bottom up rather than tipping the top downmight work, any time I get a decent tilt on the bike I end up hitting the ground before I can get it upright again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickyw Posted September 7, 2007 Report Share Posted September 7, 2007 My chain wont de-link...help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eskimo Posted September 8, 2007 Report Share Posted September 8, 2007 Tables...Push down with one arm while pulling up with the other. The motion will need to be done while turning the bars so sort of push, pull and turn all in one go. The leg bit is the main thing that really pops it out flat or inverted. Keeping your knees together help some people but i sometimes go bow-legged by accident. Also unleveling the pedals can help. I learnt them both ways in the end. Try doing them on a hip, it really will be easier! Just keep turn-barin' everything and before you know it they will go flat.This is a opposite one therefore the downside pegs from a while back. Oh why won't your chain break? Try a hammer nail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poopipe Posted September 8, 2007 Report Share Posted September 8, 2007 that's a much better explanation than mine nickyer - bigger chain tool? Mine's about 9 inches long and weighs well over a Kg, haven't found one it can't split yet.failing that just cut the f**ker off and buy a new one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poopipe Posted September 8, 2007 Report Share Posted September 8, 2007 ill try lol but the end of the pins in the links look too big to come out lolah - they've been punched or whatever. My bigass tool would split that - maybe take it down the LBS and see if they'll lend you one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wing Posted September 8, 2007 Report Share Posted September 8, 2007 Ok, i have a new frame, which means i need a new Bottom bracket. Apparently i need the American size one. I also need a cheaper one, so i was told pijin.co.uk are a cheap shop. However, they only have Euro, Spanish and Mid sizes, are any of these what i'm looking for? Also, i need a thinner tyre so i can slam the frame properly. A 1.75 should be adequate, any suggestions? Again, the emphasis is on price. I am a hobo.

I also need a cheaper one, so i was told pijin.co.uk are a cheap shop. However, they only have Euro, Spanish and Mid sizes, are any of these what i'm looking for?nope - none of them will do. Billy's might be a bit pricey but I'm pretty sure they had some last time I was in there. Winstanleys are probably cheapest - assuming they have them in stock (phone first)Also, i need a thinner tyre so i can slam the frame properly. A 1.75 should be adequate, any suggestions? Again, the emphasis is on price. I am a hobo.those gusset ones I used to use are fine - Billy's have them for about 11 or 12 quid I think. I've got a pair of 2.1s you can have for nothing If you want but that won't help at the backWhich frame did you get? I'm not ill anymore, come out and ride when I'm back from my high powered business trip to Romania Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wing Posted September 8, 2007 Report Share Posted September 8, 2007 I got this frame! It's black and looks a little bit like this.I'm not sure what it is though. If anyone is awesome at identifying frames, the picture might be useful. I have cracked the lens in my phone, which explains the blurry picture, i think. Oh yea, the frame is cracked too, but it looks like it should last a while.Cool, i'll pop into Billys soon and hopefully they can sort me out! What's the duration of your Romania trip?

Well i don't actually mean anything by saying 'officially' i thought it just sounds better. Mine have outlasted all my other tyres. I'm currently running them on both wheels and grip wise they're good even on metal ramps. The only downside is the weight. The new KHE dirt tyres seem alright by the way.

Barbra Posted September 10, 2007 Report Share Posted September 10, 2007 They actually make a difference to the bike when riding. One of the strangest things...So why are you selling them then?Because they blow up alot. 3 friends have had theres blow up, and not cos they've been harsh either, just randomly blown. One mate went through 2 sets as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
