  1. ...Take a look out the window? Ohhhhhh, right... you mean for the ride? How about you check THIS bloody website? Don't know how to search/use iGoogle? No worries... There's a new fangled company called BBC. Try checking their website, and have a look around.

    Oh really? I couldn't tell I challenge you to hit 60" by NYE '09.

    'Bout time for a new'un'n'all, I reckon. ......................(^^^^^^^ Oh hells yeah.)
  4. That was rather bloody good. Is everyone in France stupid rich? Never seem to see one without a hydroxx, boxx, coust or atomz.
  5. Look cool as f**k though I really like that. Would deffinately have one myself - even with the spec. Can't afford a bike though
  6. A bit more variation/choice in the 24" realms would be nice - but I reckon if there was TOO many more than we currently have, shit'd get a tad confusing.
  7. So they DO get rub?! Cripes - I wasn't aware of that. Never mind then
  8. Who came with me the other night was Edd Potts ~ Dave85 on here. I was just around at Kris's house (he's a good mate). I'm going to try the K-Jet system first as I've read it's more reliable when using higher lifting cams than carb's though I think this is going to be very much trial and error
  9. Unless I'm missing something, that's not what I meant. The pads are about 3.5/4mm from the rim - loads of TPA to make it work. I'll check my dropouts for cracks when I get home.
  10. My grandad helped "dig" that
  11. So I hadn't even TOUCHed the wheelbuilds since I bought it complete in January. Jesus... Doesn't seem like a year :| ...Anyway - a couple weeks back, every time I put some power down, I got this horrid grinding noise. Moved the pistons out and just bunged the TPA all the way in for the rest of the ride. Leave it over Christmas, as I forgot it was dying - and then came to ride it the other day. I tightened everything evenly, (why did no-one inform me it's so soothing to sort a wheel out? I really enjoyed the process this time around ) and even got that elusive buckle out that was there, then not, and then there, then not... etc. [/2nd_ramble] It feels infinately better. I hadn't realised just how bad a shape it was in. Feels more springy, flicky, and controlled All from a tighter wheelbuild, and a few extra PSI. Now - the problem is, I'm still getting the grinding noise every now and then. Not NEARLY as often, but when I really go for it... The spokes are tight enough that I wouldn't want to tighten any more, for fear of stripping the threads. Slave prongs are both about 2mm away from the rim, which is now absolutely buckleless (to me - within 1mm... hell - I'll bend over and blow my trumpet - HALF A MILLIMETER). Now it's not really a problem, as I can go full out for a sidehop, and it's fine - just occasionally on starting a rolling gap's runup. (Rollup/rideup?) Before you cunning little buggers point it out - I know it's time for some new pads... But I'm skint These ones that are so dead are KoolStop Reds that I found in the bottom of my spares box, and I only moved onto them 'cause my Magura Blacks suffered the same fate. Heh :$ Any help offered would be very well recieved Cheers.
  12. Ok - you're free to go I know - I've ridden with him since he's been on it a few times - I'd just assumed he'd've kept the Adamant too. (By the way - try saying the word "solely" in the middle of a long sentance. It's a right b*****d of a word...)
  13. :$ I like it. Short+higher stem is in high levels of want, though.
  14. This...... Is this from the Ford avert? Even if not, it looks fun. I really wish I would start playing agin
  15. Straight - though that's tradition, I reckon. If it weren't for tradition, I think instinct would've worn off by now, and we'd all be bisexual.
  16. Well he needs to take on a helper then. If it was any business other than one with it's primary custom from teenagers who won't really kick up a fuss, he'd get eaten alive. Having said that, I understand that it's not a massive market, and so he can't afford to pay someone. This though, is besides the point. If you can't do it, shut down for a little while. Open back up when you can run it properly.
  17. You can afford one of those each year? Lucky you Looks nice. Always found that join looks a bit weird - not sure if I like it or not.
  18. In which case: GO C A SHRYNK LOL
  19. 'Course it does. They ALL look the same - with the exception of FatMike's.. which is different because it's muddy. Nice bike
  20. Chapter 3.1415926 That was perhaps the greatest thing I've seen. I so hope atleast SOMEONE takes it for serious

    My New Toy

    Wouldn't you like a new chain - to go with that swanky ass bike?
  22. I'd say it was just that one, else it would've been raised before. ...You do realise you're still aloud to have one, right? Just re-order... If you want one that much, why didn't you ask for a replacement, instead of a refund?
  23. Please tell me you're not serious?
  24. Upon a rewatch, I've only just noticed the mixture of fisheyed and non-fisheyed clips. Very good Really enjoyed seeing that [somewhat ENORMOUS] gap from rock to rock, in a perspective the brain can make sense of
