That's a bit weird. I guess if you can get away with changing the BB length then that would help but 127.5/128mm is pretty much standard for ISIS these days anyway. How does the spacing look with the rear wheel bolts loose? Does the frame 'pull in' much when you tighten the bolts up? Is it because your hub is 110mm spacing to allow for snail cams but with the Onza you don't need them?

What gearing are you running?

Yeah man, because George f**king Bush and Sarah f**kng Palin where such intelligent, useful additions to the gene pool. I was so disappointed no one managed to assassinate Bush. At least Obama actually has some brain cells to rub together although I guess that makes most white Americans feel stupid and inadequate. P.S. I'm guessing you were joking but all the points still stand, just aimed at all the other American retards .

Unlucky (but welcome ). Why do Americans have to shout? Inside voice please .

Hehe, stick with it! A nice high front end and shorter stem will transform the bike and definitely help with bunnyhops .

My guess is the hackerzzz have their own forums and have now passed on the details of the server security to likeminded losers who are now 'playing'. Do you think he realises that he just spelt 'oened'? And there was me thinking that the proper interweb term was pwned (or pwn3d if you musst)?

I've got the 90mm x 20degree EA50. Was one of the few stems of that sort of geometry that I could get for 31.8mm bars. I'm currently running loads of spacers too- probably about 25mm with Easton EA30 hi-rise bars. Bike has been sprayed since my last vid but I do have a couple of vids on Youtube.

Sounds sketchy as!! I had the same problem trying to run a Magura Marta on the first Echo EM2 in the country back in ~2002. Tried everything I could but ended up just swapping the brakes for the original single piston Louises...

It probably makes sense to do it yourself to start with. If it's acceptable in your eyes then stick with it. If you'd rather it have a tougher, more professional finish it'll still be easy enough to get it powder coated.

I'd say slightly less annoying than the annoying American retards that frequent the real site...

Why do people do that? I don't get it. The FBI, sure. The DVLA, sure. Tesco, McDonalds, GAP, sure. But some random biketrials website?

So helpful yet so eloquent. Edit: Actually on second thoughts that's grammatically poor and completely pointless . Edit 2: Rebuilt rear wheel?

How the blog displays for me (no, really):

Easiest (cheapest) way to do it would be to spray it yourself. I've got a black Easton EA50 stem on my Inspired which I sprayed white with Halfords 'Appliance white' and then lacquered. It's finally starting to chip off (with abuse) but for less than a tenner I can hardly complain. You could get it powder coated but unless you know someone that does it it'll probably cost you £15+. Your call!

But you're missing the point Dave. As someone with an eye for the aesthetic like yourself, if you were to decide to design say a camera that you knew was superior to anything out there but when you released it you made it look like a shoebox with a lens sticking out and had it painted in purple and green swirly hammerite paint it'd kinda be a bit stupid wouldn't it?

Aaaaannnnd... welcome to 3 hours later .

Kidding, ya? Please say you're kidding.

I was trying to be polite and give the colour a chance in the other threads (the bikes in which don't look too bad) but I'd really expect the build yourselves as the manufacturers would post up would be sweet as fook but alas no.

If I were you I'd bombard Dan with phonecalls, emails and possible letters threatening legal action until he sends you something (probably completely opposite to what you ordered but at least you can stick it on eBay ).

Joe, please please please go onto ebay and buy some taste PLEASE?! I'm sure there were plenty of posts when you were asking about colours which said something along the lines of 'white, green, blue, black, polished, orange... anything but gold'. Way to listen to the market As has already been said, nice frame, shame about the god damn colour... (and the gold spokes )

Yes. For those with a soul... There is a free way of buying 5 seperate versions of the song through Nokia music . Follow the instructions here (doesn't ask for any card details and takes 5 minutes to download the software and register so you can 'purchase' the tracks. DO IT!! DO IT NOOOOOOW!!

Hope that makes sense. Where the chainstays attach it might be worth tweaking it to actually meet the full section of the tubing as at the moment you'll end up with massive stress raisers at the ends of the 'C' section. There are also bits of the yoke edges which don't include a radius. It would tidy it up nicely if they all matched to create a nice, smooth flowing piece. Where the chainstay parts of the yoke meet the BB shell itself I'm still not sure it'll be possible to produce it. If you could smooth the outside edges of the yoke to meet the BB cup ends it would make for an easier to manufacture piece although you may have to rework the lightening slots a bit as well. The final point is probably just an oddity of the display but there seesm to be something a bit odd going on in the slot which passes through the BB shell. It does look proper pimp in full render though! Very impressive .

Very true. I was quite surprised to be honest- 165 tyres, not much in the way of ground clearance and not much weight over the driven wheels but it was great. I guess because they're so light weight they just don't bury themselves like heavy modern cars so don't get stuck. Either way good fun!
