  2. no buying and selling....at least comment on his topic instead of posting in nmc I'd say around £50?
  3. mine's fine without.....holds not as good as the zenith with a booster though, have to get my cams sorted to use one Er: 1095, 380, +40 71.5 < V2 compared to 1085, 385, +10, 72(?) < V1
  4. picture? what ratio are you running? is it possible for the wheel to line up with the brake mounts even with no chain on at all?
  5. Er just seen the tv ad for this today, anyone know what the music is from it?
  6. polycarbonate bullet proof plastic i think...id still stick with the heatsink backings though
  7. goos hit lil dude, vast improvement in your riding...but wear a helmet!!
  8. er 3 things 1. Hows about: Looe, St Ives, St Austell, Dartmoor? 2. Can i get a mention on the site? 3. If you need any pictures of the above locations...email me Otherwise, get on your bike and come ride ply with me
  9. if simps idea fails.... boil the pads and rotor ( seperately ) scrub with a green brillo type spongey thing and a dab of washing up liquid...rinse and dry throughly re-bed in and it should have improved
  10. if my spare comes in the post...you can use it

  12. Alex Dark

    Grips

    cant stand trialtech foam grips halfords for sure
  13. 4 options in my opinion....front vee: cheap, insane power with a grind, barely any modulation.... avid bb7: loads of power good modulation, fairly expensive ( 2nd hand about £30 for a full setup) hop mono trial: expensive, bags of power and modulation;front magura: cheap, easy loads of bits, nooo modulation well, thats personal opinion ^^ but id say go for rear magura...and a bb7, was pleasanlty suprised by mine, loads of power and i can stoppie it really well
  14. come on kids leave it out now
  15. oooh when? er for me its style AND smoothness
  16. haha, would say that that was openly admitting there was a different compund....but i dont fancy the arguement that'll come with that statement
  17. ill be out either day.... i think kierans got himself an xtp 2
  18. yeee keep the 18t front freewheel..adn just change the rear cogs if needed
  19. they just dont provide enough hold.....inteh same way that a hope mono mini doesnt or an m4
  20. welll....they do, just not as much as a normal cable, and theyre smoother as well well....they do compress , just not as much as a normal cable outer, and theyre smoother as well
  21. im excited about this now...weather dependant, ill be there with about 5 people in tow
  22. brilliant brakes...if they're coupled with 160+ rotors, linear slic cables, well set up...uncontaminated pads and some decent levers (sd7, xtr etc ) they can be amazing brakes
  23. 3 choices in my opinion....... front bb7 with sd7 / xtr lever..... hope mono trial...... or......front magura on a grind
