  1. I know. I'm disapointed in myself for not going even closer to the surface Its all good guys. I just wanted to get maximum clearence of my sprockets on the rear, so I drilled it as close as I could to the edge. Its no problem though, I can always file the hole downwards to create a miniture dropout specifically for the spoke tensioner!
  2. 26" is mine, 20" is Ozzy's. Both have been stripped to silver. And Ozzy..
  3. Yeah, I just drilled two holes.. The tension you get is seriously good - which was a surprise to me, I thought it'd wouldn't be that good!
  4. Spoke tensioners are the way forward Heres mine on my 24UK: Cai.
  5. The reason it will fit is because those two hubs are pretty much identical. The Viz disc hubs come in more colours, but are £25 more
  6. Yes anyday, freewheels have never let me down. Plus the insides of that I9 hub don't impress me what so ever. The engagements in that hub don't look to be as deep as a freewheels either!

    How Much?

    Prices that I'd expect to pay -Trialtech front rim, on an onza hub - £25 -Onza t-pro cranks, trialtech bb - £25 -Old school 04 zoo! bars - £10 -Rear 36h onza hog rim - £10 May as well give these last two away.. -Battered to fook t-pro frame -onza bars, stem and forks
  8. Well if you change your mind about it being brand new, I have a Onza Zoot frame in seriously good condition that I'd sell (for a fraction of the price of what a new one would cost you).
  9. That is the worst bike I have ever seen.
  10. Looks really good! The built in booster looks pathetic though, should reach down to the 4bolt mounts. You trials nerd..
  11. It says nothing about needing a saddle or mudguards in 'The Pedal Bicycles (Safety) Regulations'. All it mentions is that bikes sold have to have reflectors, a bell, and correctly adjusted brakes. Link to the boring-est knowledge of bicycles ever.
  12. I used a 203 BB7 on the rear of my 24" (and yes, I can set up a BB7 very well - they are the only brakes I ever use on the front), for modulation it was good, for bite & hold however it was in no way as good as a rim brake set-up. So considering the smaller wheel I'd say a 185 rotor would be acceptable, but don't expect to be blown away with 'power'. I can just see a 160 rotor on a cable opperated disc brake on the rear not being enough..
  13. The rear Try-all Stick's are 2.5, the fronts are only 2" wide.
  14. Koxx Cheat Code frame - for anyone who wants to add manuels and spins to their trick roster. Currently at £0.99 (20hours left) - £13.95 postage though. Linky. Comes with the ISIS BB and Duro cranks too..

    Riding Shorts

    The summer shorts are really nice to ride in. Allthough I'd recomend going for a size lower than you normally would, I'm a 34" waist - and 32" koxx shorts are fairly baggy.. They fall quit low below the knee which takes a little getting used to. It looks so much better compared to shorter lenghted shorts when your running shin pads as I do

    Reason To Be Ii

    The second guy to ride, "Yo Something", looks amazing compared to the other two riders
  17. It takes several coats to get it all off.
  18. Sure your mounts arn't the wrong way around? I know one sides thicker than the other, and obviously if the thick side is up top clamping on to the booster then it won't work. If its all fitted fine though then thats a really badly designed £60
