What bike are you keeping for street and messing about?

My ankle isn't healed yet, the physio said it's going to take about three months but if I'm gentle on it and wear an ankle support I should be ok with it and you'll have to wait and see I might have a pair of old style blue rimjams in my shed i could lend you for the ride (but dont hold me to that because my shed is a mess!)

No problem...blow torch, mega chainwhip, 2 vices and 5 foot of scaffold tube...never fails ...bring it along next saturday in my lunch break.

I reckon my ankle might be upto riding (gently) next week, and hopefully i'll have my bike built up by then, so does anyone fancy an Ipswich ride? I've not ridden trials for literally months (been bmxing lots though!) since i broke my vee brake adaptors like before Christmas, but now thats all sorted and I'm dual disc So anyone up for it? Norwich and Essex lads too maybe? The more the merrier! 11:00 at the skatepark on Sunday 2nd March

Theres a guide on the Hope website. edit: i was wrong, not for the pro2. i'm pretty sure you get the bit inside the freehub body and pull it out with a pair of pliers.

I would...but my ankles still on the mend got a suprise for everyone used to me riding a bike with a seat too

you'll try the 1 meter one this time maybe? (i'm being a dick, ignore me!) really like the bike, nice colour scheme

wow!

I modified a Hope mono casette hub to fid a mod. If you replaced it with a hope xc hub body you'd have a perfectly spaced disc freehub for a mod king and profile disc hubs need bodging to fit properly.

I have the same ankle injury as Dave Cleaver

that would be really cool, i'll send you some money to pick one up. thank

yes, a little bit.

i love this bike, rides so nicely! I though i'd try something a little more new school again though...got a vario styx on its way

XTR lever Animal Bikes linear slick kevlar cable Ultimate arms CRVs on a medium grind thats what i ran until i snapped my veedapters and it was pretty mental.

A failed sidehop lead to me crushing one of the bolt holes on my rear pro2. Will the hub be under significantly more stress if i run a rear disc on 5 bolts?

You are taking the piss, aren't you?

ffw or freehub?

I'd say stick with a bb7, the 2007 rear will fit with a front adapter, which is £7 from chainreaction. The 2008 I use is awesome, can't really notice it flexing anymore than the old version, so its upto you!

or is it? *cough*pro2*cough*

yeah, i'll give it a go there's a bb in there at the minute so i'll leave it in until i need to take it out then i'll take it into work and tap it out. cheers for the help

coke can strips between the frame and headset

what if he's mashed away too much of the existing thread? like there isnt much material left.

I know, i use one at work quite regularly. I just bought a 2nd hand frame and the guy said he tried to put the bb in backwards and fooked it up a bit... dunno if i'll be able to chase them.

I know it's pretty ridiculous but its worth a shot?
