  1. 110 to 140 fork has transformed the bike! Loving it.
  2. Set up suits your style. Sweet spots and riding! Putting me in the mood.
  3. With the shape of my mouth being more upside down V than upside down U, my teeth are "crowded". Had 4 removed in the past and went through 2 years of braces on NHS from about the age of 16. Over time they've shifted back to where they were and look a bit higildy-pigildy again. I recently had a consultation with a local orthodontist and I'm about to put down 2k to have them straightened again. Like Tom says, it'd be nice to have the confidence to grin away for photos at special occasions etc.
  4. I suddenly want to take a Stanley to a Der Kaiser.
  5. 115 times National Champ, tries a half cab. Its fine, we'll cut that bit out.
  6. Just make sure he welds it on the right way round. He has previous.
  7. A wee bit of sick came up at 0.32. Broken freewheel or reeewiiiind?
  8. Everyone does it differently. All depends on how you're transporting your kit and what space you have to work with. Most go for the Russian doll method and build boxes which fit inside each other to make best use of space. Some get box section tubes welded up to specific sizes, some use scaffy poles and readily available connections.
  9. Have you done any of your own investigations dude? Tried simply googling teams and trying to see what they have? I know if I had my own team, which I'd spent hours/days/weeks/months/years building up, I wouldn't just post up here what I did, how I did it for all to see and copy.
  10. Stolen from Insta. If it was mine I'd have all others at the top and the 04 at the bottom.
  11. How's the chain line? I prefer to run my rear sprocket between the middle and inside of the freehub. Closer to the spokes the better! How do you space the crank axle out?
  12. Love that the freewheel set up has went splined. My mates Echo set up was perfect. Slide the FW on and it buts up against the axle spacer. No vice, no scaffy pole, no threaded rod and nuts, just smiles. In saying that, my TT SL cranks and Jitsie FW have been great.
  13. That is an excellent option. In the past I have used the short and long arm joined together to achieve the same thing, albeit fugly.
  14. I like bigger chain ring and cog set ups as it means the chain doesn't have to bend round as much - Puts less stress on the chain and makes it last longer. Although. That rohloff arm is so short it just about works with a 16 but you cant run it parallel with the chain stay, which is what you do if you're cool. Good job on the brakes. Have the cables just been snipped off?
