  1. I'll be honest, I only clicked on the link because you said your website was naff and I wanted to see how bad it was.
  2. I cut a cassette up before, and just ran two speeds. It means you can use a decent thickness of chain. You need to space out the derallieur, and there are a few other complications I can go into if you're interested.
  3. Another vote for sticking to ffw. Profiles can fail in pretty interesting ways, and you've already hit a snag before even buying one.
  4. Part way through, I'm enjoying this. You've come a long way!
  5. Thought about saving up for the saint brake you love so much?
  6. I'm still awake. I learnt a bit of korean.
  7. Should be able to post on safari, I can on my iPod. There IS an IPB app, it's basically a shit browser - you can use it for other websites. Oh yeah, it's shit.
  8. Furthermore, it makes more sense - a set of 10mm dropouts will fit any 10 and 9mm hub. You'd be futureproofing the forks, kinda.

    Films!?

    According to Empire, Ridley Scott sort of thought about turning this film into an Alien prequel, a bit of an explanation as to the space jockeys, but when the story was being developed more he decided not to attach it to the Alien films, so... you might want to think of it as a prequel but it's not actually a prequel.
  10. Wait! The crucial difference is if you buy a trialtech one you get trialtech stickers with it. Other than that it's identical.
  11. That's not too bad. Will you get a sticker set for it?
  12. I would've called it a badly set white balance on the camera myself.
  13. And that's definitely the same guy?
  14. You could find a cheap 28h hub from somewhere, it doesn't matter too much, especially if you're still a beginner.
  15. I hope this doesn't cause problems for South Korea.
  16. I'll be honest, I preferred the original colours.
  17. I used to live round the corner from that factory.. or where it's meant to be. It's shut, they sold out and got their bikes made in Taiwan or something like that.
  18. Get at least a 2:1 degree. Get a job in 3D animation.
  19. MTB wheels can't cope with trials. http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/135mm_fixed_hubs/trialtech_race_sealed_rear_hub/c21p11423.html http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/complete_freewheels/tensile_60_click/c16p398.html Those two together will do the job perfectly. Slightly cheaper than a hope pro II, and leaves you open to swapping to front freewheel in the future. Seeing as your current wheel sounds f**ked, it might be worth opening it to see if there's anything you can do. Remove the cassette. Try pulling the freehub body - that's the bit the cassette sits on - out, and anti-clockwise. You have to pull quite firmly. If it doesn't show signs of moving, there might be a nut or something to take off that'll be on the end of the axle. Open it, if there's tiny chunks of metal lying about that's why it's bust. Take a pic and post it up, perhaps.
  20. Do you have tools? Get a block of wood, 5 cm cube would do it, drill into it a hole that's the width of the hose, cut this exactly in half with a saw. Place the hose in the hole, clamp this in a clamp, and then hammer the fitting in. So yeah, you need to make those. It will make this job roughly 100% easier.
  21. If you look very hard in some past posts you might still find that picture. Hahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaa.
  22. Definitely didn't watch this video specifically because of this comment...
