Wedges arn't my problem... Its the cutting to size / painting / measuring then chiselling in hinges / fitting / drilling the handle holes / attaching the handle / cutting in the bolt to the doorframe / fitting the bolt / fitting the striker plate / making door frame straight. And once all thats done making sure it actually opens and closes and functions like a door.

Fitting internal doors is a f**king nightmare on elm street.

Sure, there are lots of good guides on the interwebs. I used Mark W's when I first stated, thats on here somewhere lemme find a link. EDIT: http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/topic/80777-how-to-build-a-wheel/ There she blows.

Has she been in the shops too? The bottles are usually fairly easy to recognise. Maybe this is a chance for you to buy her the Rihanna purfume? smells good.

They will just keep on going until you get the wheels re-built. The spokes get old, lose their flex, snap, you replace it and it moves around to the next weakest and so on. Minus whale re-build both wheels and call it a day.

If you have to ask, you're probably not ready for it... Do one from 3 foot up to 5 foot away, then 4 foot up to 7 foot away, and if they go well then use the same technique and you'll be ok.

I was shopping sat and fitting doors sunday... But yeah will have to come out to this secret spot sometime soon.

The photos Echo use for their new products automatically makes them look like they are from 2005 for some reason.

There are loads on ebay, but don't seem much cheaper than tarty to be fair.

Off topic but either of you two had any dealings with Little Haugh Hall in Norton?

Looks like a rich farmer who don't give a f**k.

I've used alu as front wheel bolts before and they have snapped. They did last about 6 months though, with a 200mm disk.

Trashzen.com. Practise.

Good. I didn't ride the whole weekend whaaaat.

Ok £600 - 700 then, why ask lol. Does look like its in good nick though

~£500

I found Shimano Deore skewers work better than more expensive Hope ones and the like.

Lightly sand piston down, lube with oil, re fit and see...

Hope XC on the front? Tap the axle, works well. You can get stronger gear hangers, but I dunno what frame you have so don't know if available for you. You could also cut it off and run a 74kingz - style tensioner, or a spoke tensioner.

Same here, registered in London, live in Devon. Not been for about 2 years, probably should. I brush and floss and mouthwash and nothing hurts so YOLO innit.

The route for the ride is 58 miles from clapham common to brighton sea front, which route did you go to almost double the distance?

I would but I'm doing the daytime one on the sunday so need all that sponsorship myself Night one sounds interesting, you done it before (day or night)?

Was expecting a JCB 3CX or Case CX235C. Is that art branded onto that wood? Looks pretty rad.

Both pinch like a motherf**ker though. f**k that if you gotta take your crank off to change a tube.

Personally I'd go with a DK.. If you mainly ride street you coud get away with a stiky lite but I find they roll too much and don't offer the grip of a DK on natural. A good old maxxis minion / highroller in super tacky is another option, but again they arn't as good for natural. 2.5 single ply with a dh tube could be bouncier / lighter?
