  1. 180 Tech Trial on the back of my 2011 Fourplay and it's almost too powerful for manuals and stuff- tons of power .
  2. Have you even tried doing anything yourself? Do some sketches, put some ideas down. People may (unlikely now) have actually helped digitize it if that's where you were coming unstuck but just asking for people to come up with everything while you sit back apparently doing f**k all is just not on.
  3. I didn't know Chris Smith used to ride trials. Did I?
  4. How big a difference are we talking? Pretty much all front forks/wheels from road bikes to mountain bikes to trials bikes are the same dropout spacing. It's not unusual for the bolts to pinch the fork legs in slightly onto the hubs but if it's a big difference something's wrong.
  5. That's only because I have no idea what the OCUK forum is... Woo, 5000 posts
  6. Seriously? It took me about 5 years to post 1000 times! Edit: Ooh, this was my 4,999th post... what drivel shall I post for my 5,000th?
  7. Those socks?! He's been spending way too much time with fixie riders... Looked like major fun though.
  8. Sticker saying 'It'll be 'reet' gets my vote
  9. Ah fair enough, maybe it is different to what we had then. Are the layers made from woven cloth?
  10. That stuff worries me... we snapped a wing spar from a UAV model last week running that type of tube and it didn't seem like it was 'proper'... it's not laminated carbon weave is it? The spar cracked like it was made of brittle plastic rather than proper CF composite.
  11. Really? There have been a couple of Euan's other vids but don't remember this one.
  12. Really liked that. You have a really cool controlled and smooth style which makes everything look easy. Some big lines in there too. Nice one
  13. Thought that might be the case. Looks 'Clean'... see what I did there?
  14. What a weird thing to say... Very creative riding and considering Euan's been riding less than two years (I think) he's progressing rally fast. Good stuff!
  15. Shipping+VAT+Import duty etc makes it less reasonable... As an aside, why would you want a Ti headset anyway? Headset cups are alloy so the Ti version of the Echo SL is actually 30g heavier... Meh!
  16. 1. Red BB cups for the win. 2. Does the rear tyre actually clear the seat?! 3. What's the deal with the seatpost- wedgebodge or just bonded in? Whatever, looks really clean, good work that man!
  17. What a random division of time! Good job on the clip though!
  18. So when are we doing Inmotion 2?
  19. Turning your bars definitely does help- by tweaking the bars in the direction you want to travel, it means you also drop your shoulder a touch and this helps rotate your body so the bike can follow.
  20. The area of a regular pentagon (5 equal length sides) can be found by separating it into 'slices' across the corners (most likely creating 5 isosceles triangles). If you have enough information you can then just find the area of one of these and multiply by 5. If more information is required you can split each of the individual triangles into two new right angled triangles and take it from there. Just depends what geometry you're given.
  21. Yes. You need to find x by itself. There are currently 7 x's so you need to divide both sides by 7 giving: x=4/7 edit: be careful of how many '=' signs you end up with. To be totally correct you should only have one 'equals' on each line so: 7x + 14 = 18 7x = 4 x = 4/7 edit 2: Also, as dann says you often won't get a nice number if you make something up like that. If an answer results in a fraction like that it's usually neater to leave it as it is- so the final answer is x = 4/7 rather than x = 0.57142857142857142857142857142857. Yes, exactly that- the 6 is multiplying each term within the first bracket and 8 is multiplying each of the terms in the second bracket.
