  1. Umm, Whats the point Pete, if thats your name.
  2. Good that your doing 24" frames, but I'm not liking that, its too unconventional, its boring, but double diamond frames are streety, it needs a seatpost too, imo anyway.
  3. happy birthday, didn't realise you were that old..

    Speeding

    Makes no difference, your still not old enough to be able to drive. Amuses me that 90% of the bollox here is from people who arn't old enough/can't drive. I can't drive, just starting, going out tommorow for a first go, but I haven't a clue on alot of the arguments in this thread, from a non driver point of view, so I can't see how any one else can..
  5. Wouldnt take out the skewer, its bolted down hard, more chance of breaking them just by hitting them I'd say.
  6. Arn't the 2003 or so lever blades a different shape? sure mine was.
  7. reminds me of a matchbox.. (Y) :P :huh:
  8. You sure? Someone else said about these, seem like a good idea. Might try making one out of a normal tube..
  9. Not notice our locations are the same, meaning it may have been a private joke? I spent ages stickering up my new helmet, which Dan thought was sad... Think before you post. :huh: :P
  10. only pricks sticker up lids.
  11. Sorry I'm a bit slow, but that is a truely good video, the footage of bristol is great, at 4.00min where matt and steve do the joint wall ride looks sweet, as well as the docks jump thing, reminded me how good the day was, top work Mike :D I'll get you that mars bar next year :o (Y) Rich
  12. Avid SD7 with an XTR Lever, under 300g inc a cable.
  13. Threre light enough, they ride well too. Something like this,For Sale in the forum would be a good start, middleburns like the guy is selling are also well worth buying, the'll last a lifetime. Magura HS33's are still the brake in trials, for the rear anyway, wouldn't bother with one up front, most riders have a disk/v on the front these days. As for the rest of the bike, cheap but quality stuff is easy enough to get. Forks: Pashley etc, £25, non disk, very strong, steel, light, steel. Headset: FSA Pig, get a new one, £15 Bar/Stem: I'd have riser bars, something like Easton EA50/70's, or Azonics. Wheels: Whatever on the front, doesnt matter really, on the rear, Mavic EX721 (521) on a hope hub would be a good start, cost around £60 2nd hand.
  14. Depends on what exactly you want to do, have a look at some videos on here, and, decide what riding you would like to do, street, bunnyhop/spin etc, or more pure trials, with big sidehops and front taps to backwheel. If I was you, I'd get something short wheelbase, pretty flickable, that you can learn everything on, Planet-X Zebdi would be ok, it'l crack after a while but there dead cheap thesedays.
  15. I would get a 26" bike, make a change from the small wheels. Stay around here for a while, and build yourself a custom bike from second hand parts, £500 should score you a good buy if you shop carefully.

    The october 1987 ones were baad, I was born during the tail end of it haha.
  17. Yea I was wonderingh about this, I get fecking loads, and I don't know 90% of the people ;)
  18. Well, you will just be stuck with the one that you dont like? umm
  19. Get something like a nut thats a tight fit on the valve stem that would hold it, might work ..
  20. err could someone show us round maybe? none of us have ever ridden there before.
  21. That is some video, i'm liking it more and more, that 180 gap is silly, and those taps are huge, love the tuckage on that rolling gap at 50secs, your too good. rich
  22. Keep the V, get some plazmatics or similar, and it will be sharp as.
  23. I was amazed how straight you got that :closedeyes: :angry:
