Ahhhh. Ok.

I'm speechless- that is totally awesome! Loving the attention to detail of it all.

Is it as geeky and pointless as I imagine it to be in my head? Not trolling as such, just considering the fans who sit painting those weird little figurine things and go to conventions dressed up as characters. Seems a bit... y'know ... to me.

Reported. Au revoir.

Or do it the lazy way and rotate a picture in Microsoft Office Picture Manager (or similar) and rotate until it's vertical (or horizontal, whatever floats your boat) on the screen. Edit: Quick and dirty using the first picture in your post (which looks like it starts with the bike most level) Seems closer to 70.5 rather than 73.5.

It's fairly standard for mod though. So yeah, best bet is to get your bike set up dialled and then practise to improve strength and timing to make the most from any input you give the bike.

That's easy for you to say!

Fix'd.

I'd read that but didn't know if it'd still need to be unlocked or not. Will try the Giffgaff sim when it arrives. Anyone used Giffgaff?

Ah, fair enough. Most of my skip riding has been done with them upside down (motorbike trials riders don't like them the right way up as much it seems!). Cars are good for hooking... and the public like them because they can relate better to the scale I think.

I keep telling myself that it was £9.97... the rest was paid for by doubled up Tesco vouchers which in turn were 'paid for' by spending probably £5k on furniture and stuff for our new house. So yeah, £9.97. Honest.

TheCircus? In bandwagon news, I used to sponsor Tom the fat, ugly capuchin at Monkey World. Well, until he died. RIP Tom .

Cheers for that. Might just do one of the eBay places then. The phone was so cheap I may as well pay £11 to unlock it.

What size rear sprocket are you using? Crank length?

Wasn't it Evolve where he rides up the driveway, up onto the grass, onto the roof of the garage then drops down onto the car and casually rides away?... Edit: Is it not dangerous having your front door exit onto the garage roof? How does your mum get the shopping back into the house?

Nah, cars have squishy tires, suspension and slippy paint and slippy/smashy glass to contend with. Skips tend to be a bit rusty so grippy and don't move! I didn't know you were Ryan Leech. Learn something new every day.

Yeah I don't think many providers will do it (especially immediately after buying the phone). But there are loads of places online who charge between £11 and £25 to apparently access the HTC database and get hold of the unlock code for you. But where do they get their access from?

Sorry to dig this up again but I've just bought an HTC Wildfire (well, I say bought, it only cost me £9.97) but it's locked to Tesco. I'm tempted to give giffgaff a go but would need to unlock the phone first. Is it possible to get the unlock code without going through one of these dodgy online/ebay places? Would HTC direct be able to provide the number? Also, while I'm on the subject, has anyone had any experience of giffgaff? Only just come across it and it seems almost too good to be true... Any thoughts?!

A couple of dead link in the 'Additional information' for the Hope Pro 2 page. Really like the new site though- very slick .

Not sure to be honest. They seem really solid and really stiff. The only real downside is the bash size which I'm not overly fussed about to be honest. I also quite like the idea of having some 'proper' mountainbike bits on there- quite a novelty these days! Might change them eventually and put the Truvativs on my woods playbike but no real need to change for now.

Disappointed at the lack of wedge bodge clampless seat fixing! More details on the tensioner as well please! Looks like half a Trialtech tensioner at first glance... Love the all black, clean stealth look- that's full of win!

I am soooo confused right now!!

I reckon it's got a reasonable chance for a while yet... I like the colour and it is a very good finish. Can't believe it's taken me ~12 years to get a Hope rear hub, even though I loved the sound in Chainspotting back in '97!!

New ride has landed . Not actually had a chance to ride it yet but really please with the detailing of everything. Poor pictures I know but it's the best I can do for now! Edit: Updated pics. Spot the difference .

Or not. Either way, investigate!
