  1. i use a rolson grinder....as said before the grinder doesnt really matter, but the discs do... i use a steel cutting one
  2. yep, a normal king is 135mm spacing.....so wont fit, a bmx one will be just the job
  3. the woodstock frame weighs around 1.6kgs.... the zip-tied mount on the sarry looks positively lethal!
  4. the yabaa bikes seem brilliant for the money....well impressed with the spec and geo, id say go for one
  5. 24/7 holroyd mod-stock.... Does this look right? Wheel geometry Hub diameters : Left = 45, Right = 45 Hub offsets : Left = 27, Right = 27 Rim diameter : 534 that'll give me 259.18 long spokes on drive and non-drive
  6. Building a wheel for a friend ( echo rim (26") onto t-rpo hub...does anyone know the spoke sizes for it, or just the diameter of a t-pro hub ...... Going to be using this spoke calculator: http://www.wheelpro.co.uk/spokecalc/ i know the erd of the echo rim (543mm), and i know i dont want it dished to either side ( so both sides will be uniform length spokes, therefore making the build easier ) Can anybody help?
  7. This may ewll be a stupid question as you're posting ona trials forum.....but is there going to be any trials events there? beyond the braun team being there.....

    Grinds?

    those types of discs are really not a good idea...you really want a peoper metal cutting disc, quite thin one

  12. ive spent...in total this is, thats 4 bikes over around 2 years....£500!
  13. all sounds quite impressive....after my second hand koxx's die ill probably get some yellows from neco
  14. why do you want some maggie black pads? they're utter sh!te
  15. Best way to do it is to adjust the limit screws in to limit the travel of the mech, then if you find it hits the chainstay, prise the u shaped washer off the back, take out the spring and clamp tot he frame like that...this effectively fixes the mech in place and stops it swinging up.
  16. try and claim it buddy.....and try and get some cctv footage if possbile

    Tires?

    hansventure....absolutely brilliant grip and only £21 ( inc post )
  18. im tempted to dial down some mx comps for my woodstock to stick two fingers up at the people that told me woodstock isnt a proper trials bike! i thought my woodstock was short at 1065...but 1025?! holy moly...thats minute....can you still do all the trialsy stuff on a bike that short? I really want a pash 26mhz...but i think im going to have to settle for my woodstock decked out in oldskool parts; anyone know what length stem on the woodstock for a really streety feel? Im running 85mm on the pitbull at the moment
  19. yay...another 04 pitbull rider....mines pretty similar, same colour scheme as well! I think i need a slightly longer stem on it though....
  20. i used ( on my 04 ) a whacking great bmx stem bolt, then screwed that directly into the top of my lever with no tpa bits at all...
  21. Yep looks like its royally cream-crackered...i recommend getting a pig headset to replace it, and keeping on top of the maintenance...it'll serve you well, mine kept on going even after i snapped my forks and impacted the bearings into the bottom race!
  22. just keep riding, the bike you have is easily good enough to start you off on.....have a look at "tricks and stunts" - halfords or "mastering the art of trials" by ryan leech...both great sources of information that'll help you along nicely
  23. to me....£50 because i cant ride a mod but want the discs! Im all seriousness...probably around £400 depending on condition?
  24. the magura 04 levers are better in every respect to be honest: * tpa's are easier bodged * they dont snap as easily at the bar clamp * they look and feel better (in my opinion)
