  1. Why don't all you guys just send him a message on Facebook as I bet your all his friends. Tell him that you think he's shit and maybe he will sort it out I say nice riding.
  2. Your such an expert arnt you They have different tread patterns the der baron is designed for wet conditions therefore faster clearing tread. I know this because my friend is working for conti as the uk importer
  3. Rain king is a different tyre. You got 2 choices. Get a try all and hope you don't pinch. They are good unless you run them flat Dk is amazing. If you want lighter cut it down a bit
  4. Try all clamps snapp easy. Make sure you leave gaps. You might just need to file the top of the mounts square
  5. Thats what I done years ago and it was perfect for the 2/3 years I used it Just use a bit of thread lock on the bolts as they tend to undo themselves Thats what I done years ago and it was perfect for the 2/3 years I used it Just use a bit of thread lock on the bolts as they tend to undo themselves
  6. Get a longer lever on your spanner
  7. My bad. Can see what your saying if you stare for a while, trick of the eye thing
  8. urm are you joking? you put it on the sprocket like you would a socket and nut,bolt either put a spanner on the hex or put it in the vice and turn anti clockwise and heypresto its off the hole in the middle is to allow it to ne bolted to the axle with an end cap i made
  9. after seeing the 'this method never failed yet' fail on numerus occations from different people when trying to remove my sporockets i came up with the tool for the job,i thought i would share it with you guys. i only run 15t so iv made it to fit 15t but could make one to fit a range esay enough enjoy
  10. Shimano one is 30.5 by 1 mm Tapping size would be 29.5 if you can find a tap If not it would need to be screw cut on a late. Pm me if you need it done we can work some thing out
  11. What year are these brakes ?
  12. What bb is it ? Can you take the spacer out ?
  13. No good for natural though I'm guessing
  14. What about front tyres? I have front try all lite but it's maybe a bit big and folds a bit more than I'd like. A narrower tyre would be nice Sorry to hyjack your thread
  15. You can put them in the oven to evaporate the oil that's been soaked up but they are never as good as new pads that's some thing I have done in the past works ok
  16. Don't use that it's oil based Mentholated spirits is what you need to clean the rotor, but your pads are contaminated with oil. You need new ones
  17. Buy 2 smal lights. The kong style ones are small and light. And about a tenner http://www.knog.com.au/gear-lights/
  18. The whole idea of the clothes Are designed for trials use. Personaly if the shorts are good to ride in rather than some uncomfortable falling down sweaty generic shorts I can't see why every ones slagging them off. Every one is so negative towards every thing trying to push trials forwards I would wear them but maybe I'd hope for some plain colours
  19. I go to crossfit. It's pretty amazing training. But most of the work outs include high tech moves and exercise which most people cant do straight off so they have to simplify them to stuff like air squats etc They do clean and jerk squats deadlifts pullups muscle ups the list goes on It's high intensity. Iv always been lean because of all the stuff I do. Trials Mtb road. Checked me today with some callipers and I'm 7.52% body fat Last time I checked I was 12% I think
  20. Hope waves rotors were always the best from when I had rear disc on my 26" years ago Trial zone one I used on my 20" last year was really good, but hope say that's the best trials brake they have made to date. Hard to know how much of the performance with due to the brake
  21. Problem is with Ali is that his comments are so blunt. Every ones has the right to their own opinion. I don't see why he can't put them a bit nicer. Iv rode really bikes with seats etc to for years and now I know what type of bikes I ride most but I don't rip into every thread like ali. Unless there is an on going argument
  22. Look amazing to me. Not sure what kind of mechanical leverage you get with the blade compared with the 05 magura and 4 finger blade. Personally I feel they are gonna be better than the RACING LINE as they don't have a split clamp. Flip flop is kool but not really that important because maguras work fine either way. Interested to try these out Why is it that there hasn't been any good solutions to the problems with the 05 for years and then all these new levers come out all at once. Like waiting for a bus I suppose
  23. From what I can remember the bulb hubs felt alot nicer, I wod buy that one if it's £15 You will get the ££ back by selling your mono.
  24. I reckon Ali might be right. Maybe it was tempered abit to much. I would send it back to hope Check your bearing in the hub arnt lose to I also fitted my trial zone rotor line that on my 20" and never had a problem. They are pretty light though. I think it's how it's pictured in the little manual that come with the brake. But can't remember
