1 coat of lacquer is more than enough... And yeah, 400 or 600 grit wet and dry should be perfect.

With regards the BB yoke: SHARP EDGES!! Get that shizzle smoothed out or you'll just end up with stress raisers and headaches. Also I hope you have access to a 5 axis CNC machine?! Other question is also with the brake mount. Are the threaded holes through or blind? If they're blind I can see you having trouble tapping them through the allen key access hole in the top. You've probably considered that but just in case . Overall looks good though! Edit: The 'SHARP EDGES' also stands for the dropouts and possibly the seatstay section too. Just whack some rads on there and you'll be laughing. Edit 2: There's a lot going on in there. Lots of corners and edges that just end abruptly at the lightening holes. If possible I'd try and smooth things off and make it 'flow' better in the design sense...

Clicky.

It really makes me wonder the sorts of people who are designing these frames... I mean, come on?!!

29p?... That's less than 50c... You could find that down the back of the sofa I'd have thought!!

That makes me sad.

Triton Cycles, Winstanleys or Evans and they're just the first ones that come up in Google... Otherwise give Hot Wheels a ring on 01202 732288

Keeeep diggin' Pete, I mean Devilish, I mean Paul, I mean Luke, I mean... Pete!!

:Facepalm:

He was almost before my time and that's saying something... I only really know what I've been told as I never paid any attention back when things were at their peak.

Have also just donated a couple of quid to Shelter which is linked to the campaign. It might get some coverage if the news people can see a story in the power of the people with the added bonus of selfless giving... Edit: Just bought it another two times... :$

That's just 'cos you're a retard though, Ash.

Not for long I'll bet.

You'd get tired of that really quickly... As said before, if you're going to do streety trials what's wrong with a 24"?

Are you in the States? Apparently it won't count if you don't order it using a valid UK postcode so you'll have to put in a UK address for it to count. In other news it does say on the Facebook page that the Amazon 29p download will count...

Well Hallelujah sold 576,000 copies last year to make Xmas number one and there are over 700,000 people who've joined the Facebook group... I'm not convinced they can get RATM to number one but it'd be frickin' sweet if it did! There are people buyng it numerous times so it may be enough to get bloody close...

What, all 25 of us? Are you sure that'll be enough to do it?

I'm guessing the Monty. Profiles are made of lead. True fact.

How can a hole be titanium? Oh, wait...

Less flicky yes but it depends what you mean by less trialsy. It would ride like an old Pashley MHz but with a higher BB I guess so kind of a bunnyhop machine but I don't see it being any less (or more?) trialsy than a proper Inspired. I don't really know what you'd gain by having a bike that rides like an Inspired but with 26" wheels... it's only going to make things worse (weaker wheels, less flicky, less streety etc).

Oh wait...

I have zero idea what you're trying to do...

It's weird how Paul's posts started out with really good English and has now been reduced to sounding like a goat herder from Kazakhstan... Is nice!!

Don't you get all uppity Mr Johns! I'm still waiting to see anyone post pictures of their Effect complete... or built up frame or whatever.

Regarding the cheese guy... Is there a reason he's eaten only cheesse since he was a toddler or is he just a bit of a f**ktard?
