  1. it does look a bit rushed together...spray the frame, or get some parts that dont clash! Or better still, oven cleaner your bash and other ano bits and it'll look nicer!
  2. thats a great idea..im sure id find something to ride...would they fit in your van though? does anybody want to ride the weekend after?...i should have some new forks by then, and be in shape, and be free to ride..so all good
  3. either a t-pro new...or a second hand pimped t-pro off here or ebay would be your best bet
  4. bear in mind you'll have to buy a modstock rear wheel, or change your hub and probably spokes to suit
  5. welding an aluminium frame without heat treating it is never going to be as strong as before...with proper heat treatin it would, theoretiucally, be the same strength again...but the likelihood of finding someone to heat-treat it for a resonable price is fairly small!
  6. most frames that use a tried and tested design eg the coust copy are fairly sound i would have thought, its only really when manufacturers completely change a frame that it might not hold up? T-raptors were hardly weak were they? i mean akkers rode one for ages
  7. i dont really understand whats supposed to be rubbing...i think he rides an a1
  8. adamant looks lovely...bit common though, and i just love the hifi headtube...
  9. bike looks awesome.and the night shots are some of the best ive seen of a bike........lovely!
  10. ive got one and love it...nicest stock frame ive ridden so far, ive got a little 85mm stem on it, and i can bunnyhop it, do all the rest of the streety stuff and still be awesome on the back wheel...i got mine for £50 posted so £60 posted is hardly a bad deal matey. I personally run a magura front and back...heatsink reds on the back and koolstops on the front...
  11. great idea...should really help clean up the forum! I think we should have the classifieds in different categories eg: (classifieds>for sale>controls>handlebars)
  12. Most businesses will just give away free pallets...at least the ones round me do
  13. i just scrub it on...loads of the stuff till i can barely see silver, my brakes never locked on before
  14. Its horrible to be honest...really not a fan
  15. stick some wd40 on it, and wobble the shizz out of the wheel!
  16. i progressed loads when i started to do one finger braking ( under some duress from the person i used to ride with )
  17. yeh, it was fine...i canm still see it fine..ill take a closer pic in a jiffy
  18. ah shizz......just realised ive got a fricking d of e hike on that weekend... no riding for me i guess...bloody great, sorry about that
  19. why the sudden influx of comments about how he isn't setting a good example?..a t the end of the day he rides well,and publicises his sponsor...hence why they sponsor him, if he wants to get pissed then let him, he's not proud of it and being childish about it or trying to rebel...He's just having a good time and riding well, i persobally dont like all this tgs riding as i find it quite boring and uncreative; however kieran does this style of riding well and as such should be respected not slagged off for having skills on a bike!
  20. hi james...good to see you on the forum....up for plymy ride saturday?

  21. cool...i guess ill see you there then... Ryan trott's riding as well...for the second time in 6 months; should be interesting!
  22. its a pretty cool looking frame, with nice streety geo,however the mod rear hub spacing is a bit of a bugger, and i know someone that snapped one...so im not 100% behind them, but for the money...you really cant complain
