  1. Damn straight....urbans, or lites. Or if you've got the money viz forks. Love me stock ones.
  2. Right...so here we are after a massive bump. Projects stands thus; * Bottom bracket, Magura mount and all tubes barring seat tube fully cad modelled * Pages and pages done on aluminium research with the conclusion that the 6000 ( 6061 ) aluminium will have to undergo 2 heat treatment stages to regain it's t6 temper. * Magura mount has been fully designed, and tested on CAD Attached are pictures of the BB yolk, Magura mount system, Frame assembly ( very rough ), dropouts and headtube. Tomorrow I'll have the first proper part assembly renderings finished. All comments welcome, especially possible improvements.
  3. haha was that filmed in Plymouth....? Looks like a right heap, lateral stiffness=nil
  4. Less flicky..... for sure. 26" at 1030-40 odd would be shit, basically an onza woodstock length?
  5. Meh, why not just get hold of a Zebdi? or short levelboss or the like.....cheap as anything, fairly readily available
  6. It is heavy when its that expensive....lets be honest, that frame is going to be bought by people that care about weight isn't it?
  7. Meh bugger that, i Just ride trials once a week....do next to no exercise, and never been gym
  8. Heh i was thinking the very same thing....
  9. Video from me soonish and ill be doing a Xmas Eve ride video too. yarp, tis noice to ride when plymouth's a little moist Thanks bru sure isss
  10. Here you are guyyyyys, pictures from last weekend. Stills taken from a vga 640x480 source so shite quality...but hey ho click me...........
  11. Holy shit that guys ridiculously explosive Just rams the bike down for gaps,
  12. Riding was keen, only thing i didn't like was the lighting...couldn't see much, apart from that...was class
  13. heh agreed.... Someone said you're too stiff, and i reckon so as well... good riding so far though
  14. Theyre gash....hifi geo. Very short (1070?) and high bb (+55?) so not great in my books. rockman fo shure, but getr an isis, slate NOT the kortz, epic weak spot in them
  15. It's an echo urban fork / echo pure with a standard hope adaptor. The top of the mount on the fork is hitting the adaptor, once the fork or adaptor ahs had a small amount of material removed it'll fit fine. Then you'll have the problem of 200mm adaptor with 203 rotor
  16. sikk get to see your new shiny rockman ( which'll be lighter than mine now ) ah you gay! i just sold you cranks and pedals! i haz barz if needs be beautttty
  17. erm....ditch the forks for sure, and id say get an Echo TR or Tensile FFW. Not a fan of the Try-all BB's so maybe an fsa? I'd go contiental rear tyre ( rain king / dk ) and a try-all front tyre Apart from that...all good i reckon
  18. Met you on Sunday I think? Anyway....ride soon
  19. Tisn't that hard...undo both bleed screws. Immerse in water. Cover the lever bleed hole, depress lever fully. Now release lever, and stop covering bleed hole. Repeat up to 40 times, whilst periodically tapping the slave, MC and line to release any air bubbles Refit bleed bolts and you're good to go
  20. White Zona Zenith? Nice pics though I likes
