Good to know you used to respekt their gangsta ways. I've always gone with JD's advice- I tend not to acknowledge people that look like trouble and just carry on without thinking twice. Provided you don't give them evils or owt they should have no reason to hassle you. Probably best not to be talking on your iPhone when you go past either I'd say . And yeah, carrying a penknife is a f**king stupid idea.

What's going on there? I take it the stays are hydroformed with designed in gussets/butting for the brake mounts?

It seems less annoying and more like Apple being retarded, ignorant, power hungry numpties. However I guess that sums up Apple in general doesn't it- being restrictive and awkward is, after all, what they do best!!

He effectively tried to kill Rubens. After his stop Rubens was behind Shumi and was about 3 seconds a lap faster than him and closed right up behind. After a couple of failed overtaking attempts (which Rubens complainred to his team about how Schui was defending) Schui made a bit of a mistake on the last corner and Rubens had a really good run on him and pulled out on the right in order to pass him on the inside of the first corner. Halfway down the straight, however, Schui decided he wasn't happy about that so pushed Rubens right across the track to the extent that Rubens missed crashing into the pit wall by a couple of inches, was pushed into the exit of the pitlane and had to do a dirty dive to make it back onto the track before losing it on the grass at 200mph. One of the most dangerous moves I think I've ever seen in F1. The second probably being when he tried to kill Kubica in Canada earlier this year! The guy's a f**king douche.

Schui needs to have his feckin' Super License revoked before he kills someone. He hasn't changed a bit: grade A tosser!

In answer to the question (and in the absence of truthsayer Hendrix) they look awesome and ride really well but really aren't up to taking much abuse. Made of very thin K-Alone tubes which tended to crack from what I've seen. They were pretty though...

Sorry Ali, I don't think you're allowed to join...

Ride smoother . Edit:

Just watched it and have to say that was really really good! Although I'm a trials rider through and through with no real interest in road bikes the way it was put together had a really fun, fresh vibe about it. Thanks for the heads up

Nice colour .

They're lying. Benito Ros works in my local McDonalds.

Pah, that's nothing. Real men do it on trials bikes . Good luck Mr Quiggley! Hope the weather's kind to you!

I can't be bothered going into it in detail but the one last night was a perfect example. For one while 'racing' they were clearly tailing a camera car an were just following it down the road. Then all the random jumps and stunts which I guarantee were nowhere near any kind of race 'route' and were probably all filmed individually about 10 times from every angle ready for editing. It's obviously done purely for show and I doubt there is actually any real element of race in it at all- purely for entertainment. The races with James, Jezza and Hamster alone I can believe being reasonably 'real' with lots of shots taken on the way back or afterwards (and even the likes of the climber one) but all the 'BMXers vs. Fiat 500' type ones (off the top of my head freerunners in Liverpool and the one last night) are just bullshit. What's wrong with Fizzy Cola Bottles Greetings?!

That's it. Since no bugger uses brakes anymore, no one needs chrome rims unless they want a pretty (but heavy) rim.

The races like this bug me now. They quite clearly just take the individual clips to create an editted skit with no actual race happening. However, I was rather impressed with Hamsters driving (if it was actually him in the 'outside' shots)- that was a proper tight course through the trees and he wasn't hanging about.

How difficult?

Think rim grinds but on pedals- just improves the friction between the pedal surface (and we're talking platforms here rather than caged) and your shoe. Between the pins is usually smooth and painted giving little grip- grinding just improves things.

A faggot is a kind of meatball. Faggots are a traditional dish in the UK, especially the Midlands of England. It is made from meat off-cuts and offal, especially pork. A faggot is traditionally made from pig's heart, liver and fatty belly meat or bacon minced together, with herbs added for flavouring and sometimes breadcrumbs. The mixture is shaped in the hand into balls, wrapped round with caul fat (the omentum membrane from the pig's abdomen), and baked.

Goodridge do a range of colours for their car (and I think motorbike) kits but only a few for their mountainbike range... I don't see why they couldn't do coloured MTB lines if they really wamted. Obviously it's just a coloured plastic sleeve but would still give the right effect.

Or just don't use iTunes because it's the most annoying pile of poo in the world ever.

That looks almost identical to how mine was cracked. I used a dremel to take the corner off and add a radius and it's been fine for 2 years+ now. Don't forget to do the other side at the same time to stop it cracking on the top.

BMX spacing is 110mm. Trials hubs tend to be made to be 116mm spacing to allow for 3mm each side of cam chain tensioners. Except Monty of course who can be bloody awkward at times! So yeah, basically any hub you can get hold of should work but you may need some spacers/washers to meet the frame depending on your hub and tensioner setup.

Who?
