Failing that Windows DVD Maker?

Cracked frame is cracked . Kawasaki won't do anything on warranty (as expected) and I'm waiting to hear back from Bournemouth Kwak to give me a quote on getting it TIG welded... expecting something around the £200 mark. I've got a friend who could do it but that would involve either getting the bike to him, taking the necessary bits off before reassembling or getting him to me with his kit... Hopefully will get something sorted soon, not that the weather's much good for riding!

To be fair that's kind of like saying 'engines only overheat if they get too hot'... Other possible reasons would be leaking hoses, radiator etc. leading to coolant loss.

If stopped by HMRC it could also be subject to 20% VAT and import duty (the rate for which I'm not sure about). Edit: Snaked.

Really? The only expensive Tesco tubes I've come across are the 700c ones for some reason. I use the 24" and 26"s and they've always been around the £2 mark.

Well according to his Facebook he's in the UK and doing demo's and stuff so should be able to make contact... He does seem to be very busy lots of the time so it seems you do have to bear with him sometimes.

Fair do's, just looked a bit like the prison side of Portland. Ah yes, Wheal Kitty... that is something of a trek! Ah well!

I use Tesco tubes (24", £1.97 at last check I think) and run 30-35psi and only occasionally pinch (2.4" Holy Rollers). What tyres you running? Options I can see are: slime tubes or slime to seal the tube once pinched (not sure how well that works with trials pinches as opposed to thorns etc.), running tyres with thicker sidewalls (Kenda blue grooves may be heavy but you can run them at about 10psi and still not pinch), running fatboy DH tubes or at a push running a second tube, slit around it's internal surface, wrapped over the new tube to try and increase protection (with a bit of talc thrown in for good measure). Riding more good would definitely help though .

Tethering is when you use your phone's data network and WiFi capability to provide the interwebz to other devices like laptops, tablets etc. To stop people taking the piss with usage (and to make it clear on the rules) GiffGaff operate a no tethering policy on their mobile sims.I do it occasionally and haven't had any problems but am sensible when using the WiFi hotspot on my phone.

And if all else fails, ride more good.

I don't get how they know if you're using the phone (occasionally) as a WiFi hotspot... do it occasionally with GiffGaff on my HTC Wildfire and haven't had any comeback from them yet. Is it just extreme usage that would flag it up or do they actually interrogate the data flow to see if people are connecting to Microsoft Update or whatnot on their Android phone/iPhone?

Onza Fly Guy forks, I'd go with Sun Mammoth rims, DMR Moto Digger tyres, X-Lite saddle? Frame looks steel and not very trialsy, not sure about much else.

If you mean the crown race isn't fully seated it could be. How much room is there between the top of the fork steerer and the top of the stem? Just to be sure you're not just tightening the top cap onto the steerer rather than taking up slack in the headset.

Is that on Portland? Do tell!!

Do this but have a look at GiffGaff. £10 a month 'GoodyBag' (not a contract so not locked into anything) gives 250 minutes, unlimited texts and unlimited internet. Can't fault them.

Luca Di Montezemelo says no...

But you're so good at it.

Surprisingly entertaining race and a fantastic result!! Also get a really warm fuzzy feeling inside watching Alonso go backwards down the field In other news- Jenson Button... wtf? And finally in other, other news, glad to have found an alternative way to view the live race rather than waiting for the BBC highlights.

When I saw the Youtube still I actually thought he'd done it in the Jim'll fix it suit he once did a video in!

Such a nice white tracksuit they're making everyone wear. Where do I get me one?!

Says the guy who paid £250 to paint his Limey! People in glass houses...

At what point does a base jump become a sky dive? Does a skydive have to start from a non fixed position such as a chopper or aircraft?

Ah, so it's powdercoating we're talking about is it? Or spraying like you said in the first post?! More money than sense some might say .

That's crazy. Each to their own but I don't think I'd pay £50 for a frame to be powdercoated let alone £250.
