  1. Thats a pretty decent tensioner, not the best looking but I might give it ago!
  2. Im with this guys answer! Vee
  3. Thats the frameset I was going to get, looks awsome! TYhe only reason i didnt was because of the 110 spacing which would have meant getting new hub and other stuff so i didnt bother Im not surewhat sort of price range your looking at but as for chain ring if i were you if you get a 22t at the front and 18 at the back its real nice tto get front up and control, im using a 18t at the front and 16t at the back which is quite nice but thats how i prefer it Vee
  4. Dam, they should get upgrading their design so I can have some!
  5. Do anywhere make levers like the FreshProducts Lever for the new style magura? Thanks Vee
  6. What would the strongest way to build a wheel up be? I want to make mine bomb proof Well as strong as it can be Vee
  7. Because of this thread i just ordered a spoke key, which i probaly should have had anyway im going to give wheel truing a go as the bloke that built my wheel didnt do a great job, it buckled in 2 days and i wasnt riding amazingly harsh I think im going to get one of them wheel truing/ building stands aswell Vee
  8. If your goin to do it, do it in the bath and comletely under the water! Vee
  9. As soon as youve got that mate things should move along nicely, just practise backwheel control and then when your comfortable start on front wheel control and youll blast anything! Vee
  10. I know how you feel, when all my parts came for my bike it was like christmas haha I was sooo excited to get it together and ride, i thought it was really light at first untill i upgraded pretty much everything and its now about half the weight its crazy light and I love it! Good luck with trials mate and just keep at it, iv had a few hard full days of pure riding and the amount i improved in that time is pretty amazing if you think about it but im still a long way off being decent, but love riding Vee
  11. I bet this thing weighs a ton! Just get a Shadow Conspiracy Interlok V2 Chain! or a reluctant they are mean and no tensioner is needed! Vee Heatsink Bash ***, Vee
  12. Well is there people out riding in Peterborough Tomorrow? Me and a mate was thinking about it Vee
  13. I always smash my shins when i dont wear shin pads, but when i do i smash my knees! you cant win unless you bubble wrap yourself................................... But the fox pads are really good, you can hardly feel the pedal hit them. Vee
  14. Czar, that kamel doesnt look good at all, and im being polite! Vee
  15. My Limey! And before anyone says anything thats not my garden! HAHA Vee
  16. If its for tension just get a chain tensioner or run a half link, I use a reluctant half link and its awsome Vee
  17. Its more a really ballsy move i take it? abit like doing a big drop the more balls the higher you can drop from in this case its how far your willing to lean over the front wheel when landing I guess Vee
  18. Im using a maxxis high roller and a standard inner at the moment because of a pinch, and the whole thing about weight whats with that Its like ill get a stronger tube and take my zune out of my pocket or even my phone and wallet to just to save weight, hell I might even start wear lycra.................. A few grams will make no difference, do you take a dump before you ride? you can shed 4lbs if you do! haha Vee
  19. Im hardcore haha, im using a halflink chain, no tensioner need and a amazingly strong chain! Highly recomended, dont listen to what others say Oh and if your lucky you can run a normal chain without tensioner depending on the length of chainstay/chainring/sprocket I think on a limey a 22t chainring and 18t sprocket works wonders without a tensioner Vee
  20. Knowing my luck ill land smack on my teeth and be all gummy Vee
  21. If your gapping to front wheel, whats it gotta do with the back wheel? and wouldnt you have to switch from leaning back to leaning forward to get to front wheel? Vee
  22. Whats with the text talk? anyway, id love to be able to do this, but my front brake doesnt seem to grip the whell when I want it to, and Im not sure what pads to put on it so Ill just have to keep riding as it is Vee
  23. Not sure about the U.S. But, Iv just ordered one so hopefully i'll never get a flat again Just need a new tyre now and maybe a toxsin whack stick Vee
  24. So i've had a look around and foun that a DH tube wall is 1.5mm thick I then came across this tube HERE Looks pretty unstoppable, has anyone used them? Im not someone who worries about 100 grams extra its like taking my phone out my pocket when i ride So im not bothered if its heavy, but would this be good? Vee
  25. Haha I dont really care, he got what i meant but check that to , just re-tighten everything Vee ps.got my bike sorted today LIMEY HERE
