right so you might remember this http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/forum/index....hl=design+level well, i now have a final design and if any of you are interested here are the cad models. i think i might have made a mistake somewhere as the rear end looks a bit too long, but the geo when finished should be. >1060WB >385+CS (horizontal dropouts) >72* head angle >+20 to +25 BB gonna start building it after half term hopefully

i take it neither of you are aware of the origins of bicycle trials then? it comes directly from motorcycle trials pretty much.

cool

oooh, what are thje new levers like? are they the same as the old ones?

you should really use acid etch primer for aluminium otherwise the paint wont stick quite as well as steel because of the way aluminium oxidizes. someones about to tell me i'm wrong though, i can feel it...

don't think you can anymore i got one second hand, there are probably quite a few kicking about that people will be prepared to sell if you ask.

that was poor, you should be ashamed! thanks for your help guys, i'll try heatsink

anyone know where i can get hold of an RB designs replacement HS33 lever seal? thanks in advance Sam

maybe your frame is bent and your old wheel was dished to compensate for this? the new wheel may be dished centrally and therefore when the hub is in the dropouts square the rim is not central between the brake mounts if you see what i mean?

if you're using it to fill deep holes the car body filler will fall off, if you knock it, and look really shit because the paint will come off with it. Should be fine to use P38 or similar compound for minor dints and scratches though

i have one and theyre 100mmx5* so pretty standard geo to be honest. you can get alot of similar stems, the only nice thing about the zoo! is that its CNC'd which means its a bit stiffer and lighter and looks quite cool but the geo is the same as alot of the onza/pazaz stems etc

you bumped it after 22 minutes. there were 5 views, atleast 2 of which were yours. calm down

ok, im bored and chuck norris facts amuse me so if anyone knows any particularly good ones, post them here! please dont put links to pages or copy and paste loadsa crappy ones, just the very best, hand-picked Chuck Norris facts please!

looking good andy some of the stuff on the video looks way smaller than it is in real life! nicely editied together too.

thats only 600grams more than tarty adam's feather bike! (i'snt it?)

surely proper heat treatment will sort this out? if its welded and then heat treated it should realign the grain? im probably talking shite but im sure an engineery type will sort me out

really really nice whats the measured wheelbase, chainstay length and bb rise? thanks

got a weight for the complete bike? looks well nice like the frame graphics colour

erm my mate had one on an XC bike, it was pretty pimp and noticeably quite light. the bearings were awesome too dunno how well its gonna stand upto trials but if tarty are selling them then im sure theyre fine

hmmm...my bad.

just because you're tall it does mean you necesarily need a long frame. im over 6ft and i much prefer shorter wheelbase bikes, i even found a short 04 echo pure longer than i like. im now on a monty 231, the old school one and i love the way it rides with a zoo stem (100mmx5*) and Monty bars. the bar and stem you use might make more of a difference than you realise!

thats a little harsh and then the chances are he'll come back with a new account or something and not be recognised as a blacklisted trader. being blacklisted is like a blatent warning not to trade with the person

isnt this the music thead thing, not the 'how long you've been riding thread'!?!

WTF?

safe erm, we're getting the train in to arrive at norwich around midday safe, i'll pick it up sunday then, thanks!
