  1. The braided element is just an outer sheath for protection against splitting the hose.
  2. Those forks look like a massive sack of dick. Talking of sacks, the head cap actually looks like a really elongated droopy ballsack too.
  3. I ride London regularly but I'm leaving in less than two weeks, doh! Try Joel Bennett though, he's gonna need someone to replace me
  4. Oh you mean those prototypes that I totally never breathed a word about?
  5. The Pareto Principle is mad really, the fact that's such a general sweeping statement that spans across tonnes of different industries and even concepts within the industry. Obviously the 80/20 bit is more of a figure of speech than an actual definitive statistic but the whole thing where 80% of complaints come from 20% of customers was so true when I used to have to deal with customer complaints for the airline I worked for. An amusing trivia gem is that a chap who introduced the term to me was actually a guy who was in my uni group project team, he had a large section in his part of our group presentation that was talking about the Pareto Principle, however it didn't actually have anything to do with our project at all and made no real sense in that context. The bit that's both amusing and incredibly ironic is that in our group of 8 students he is a part of the 3 member segment that contribute f**k all work to the project. Which means in this case it's more of the 38/62 rule... But yeah. Not far off.
  6. I thought you were gonna call me out for snaking
  7. CLICK Somebody buy a pair and review them on here immediately.
  8. I just drink a lot of beer and eat a lot of fried chicken.
  9. Don't forget the Pareto Principle! If 80% of the people say they definitely will buy your pads for £xx, only 20% will. I don't make the rules!
  10. That's what you get for not crossing your leg over
  11. And yet remarkably I'd still feel more comfortable buying a set of 'proper' pads for £20 odd pounds or whatever the cost. Sorry, but whilst what you've done is cool as a hobby project and pretty admirable, it's really not proper R&D, you've made a start but you still have a long way to go.
  12. I did 3 on and 3 off over the summer (12 hour days) and that was pretty awesome but with my new job I'm hoping to start a 4 on 4 off roster pretty soon after starting, that's pretty much my dream shift pattern. I love shifts.
  13. That was awesome! So refreshing to see a skatepark ridden like it's street. The BMXer dude had a nice flowy style, I love that it wasn't just push button tricks. Your fakie wallride to fakie nose manual was really sick, Aaron. Loved the transfer nose manual too. Loved it all pretty much
  14. I think there are several tucked away but the tend to keep themselves well hidden to avoid this kind of scenario: Thanks again for the help, I'm heading to Boots tomorrow to pick up a pair
