  1. Mate of mine rides a Z1...damned nice frame, I really want a Bionic B5r
  2. Sorted all received....i will process tomorrow and dispatch asap. Alex
  3. Welcome to the Forum dude....keep to the rules and you'll find this a pretty helpful and informative lil community
  4. Mod or stock? Fixed or free? Disc or non-disc? Lightweight or hench? Budget? Spoke drilling?
  5. Truth They're piss easy to fix anyway....
  6. Such a bouncy little dude Keep up the riding though, twas good
  7. I wouldn't get the stock forks...the fly guys aren't renowned for being terribly strong. Take a look at the Echo urbans click here
  8. Hey man, welcome to the Forum.... Good stuff getting back into riding after a long break, refreshing seeing people getting back into it now Check out the rides/locations thread,,,when you're validated post a topic in there to arrange a ride.
  9. Shim it...loctite it....bigger headset...leave it
  10. Ye did belong to Mr Kieran...now owned by a good friend of mine if anyone's interested in it...high spec dual disc one.
  11. Right...soooo been solidworks'in pretty much all afternoon and firing emails off to people to get their feedback. All the renderings are currently refusing to upload, bit I'll keep trying for anyone that cares
  12. Very strong loctite can also help...if it's cracking noises then in 80% sure its the headset bearings themselves.
  13. The short is amazing to ride....really loved my mates one. No cracks so far..but it is a super lightweight mod frame. Known to crack definitely, especially around the seat stays i think
  14. Truth... Rear Magura always on a stock....mod disc/magura on the rear.
  15. Wow.....pretty strong response from you guys! I've done three people's designs so far, and continuing with the rest now. Must remind everyone that the limiting factor is the amount fo material available to me, so it is first come first served I should have all the designs completed for the people that emailed me by around 6pm if all goes well.
  16. Shit bolts, too much torque, too short bolts, rushing.
  17. And if the magura was designed to have a braided cross-over...washerless clamps...longer blades...cnc'd pads...ti hardware it'd come standard, oh...wait It's an improvement for us trials riders...we're adapting an XC commuter brake for the best possible performance in trials, ergo there have to be some differences in what we want from a brake. Light lever feel is hardly important for commuters or tandem riders is it? There are no real ill-effects from water bleeds...I must have owned around 10 maguras now? All water bled...all worked fine until one or two cracked / got cannibalised or got sold.
  18. No worries, I'll cehck through my email tomorrow, and get some designs ran up by tomorrow night....sound okie?
  19. Done it....works great Got this set-up on the front of the coust, hammered it all day today and no issues what soever. Simply file the top part of the mount down until you don't need the plastic washer...keep testing them together
  20. Okay well drop me the designs and ill see what I can do tomorrow It certainly would....email me what you be wanting alexdark2(at)hotmail.co.uk
