I've got a black and blue t but was really annoyed when I tore a hole in the blue one after having it about a week... Would be up for another t and maybe a hoody if they became available again.

I don't think he's even skilled at that. From the little I've seen of him, he just does the whole 'I'm a raving homosexual. Oooh, look at him! I'd give him one... oooh, you know what I mean . Did I mention I like men?! Ooooooohhh....' Which I just don't find funny. And his voice. I find Graham Norton a whole lot less offensive to watch and that's saying something.

Ah cool, I stand corrected . I did have a look on the site and thought they looked different to the ones I'm running on the Monty. That'll be why!

Were the Try-Alls oversize? unless you want to change your stem as well you may need to keep an eye on the clamp size.

In my experience Hope Mono Trials crack... I'm currently running a Gusset R-Series on my Inspired and it's light but also far chunkier than the Hope ones.

Better.

White's ok... but is kind of being done to death at the moment. Go different and add some colour!

Trialtech in green?

I was thinking that... POLLS ARE CLOSED PEOPLE! VOTES HAVE BEEN COUNTED AND OBAMA WON.

Did you just ask that? He was born in 1881!

Say no more...

Because it's a 219 it wouldn't surprise me if it's a FAG BB with plastic cups... I tended to use a hammer and aluminium bar to get it out but it usually made a mess.

Saw this last night- haven't read any of the books but Jurassic Park and ER among others were all really good work. RIP.

Which is rubbish. Get some nitromors on there and you're away! And spraying really is easy to make look good- just take your time and top it off with lacquer and it'll look good for longer.

If it's still silver and black with the frames then 100% yes! The standard colour scheme is poo in my opinion! Get colourful and get creative! Mine went red with black tribal graphics on the frame and forks and looked sweet . Edit: Best pic I can find of mine...

Swapped the frame with Luke's Heatsink that's in this thread .

Too late... So where are the pics of the new steed Luke?!

I'm glad. For all the people who'd prefer McCain, I really don't have an issue with him, but I think there's a very good chance he's already lost some of his marbles just by the fact he chose Palin. He's clearly got a couple of screws up in his head loose... I'm also very glad that the new president can actually string together sensible, meaningful sentences without a) reading it off a teleprompter b) sounding like a total retard and c) exclaiming how good German asparagus is.

Mine's made of fairy dust and puppy dog tails.

Seeing as only one state has actually counted votes (New Hampshire going to Obama) that's not based on any kind of fact at all...

Depends if you want to just roll or do a Switzerland squeaker where you scuff the front tyre with your foot from an endo to roll the bike backwards. For backwards nose rolls (I'm no expert by the way) a lot of it has to do with getting your cranks right before kicking up the back wheel. You need to be rolling backwards then kind of pedal backwards faster than necessary until you get your feet back to being level where you're comfortable and then scoop the back of the bike up with your feet while pushing forward on the bars and keeping your weight really far forwards. Hard to explain but you basically want your centre of gravity to be centred over the front wheel. Keep at it and you'll get better. Cover the front brake for obvious reasons and learn to use it lightly to try and keep things going longer. A slight hill will help. For squeakers it's down to timing in my mind. You want to scuff to get the bike moving and as the bike gets to the point of balance, pull on the front brake so that the bike wants to fall back down to two wheels. If you then scuff again you can catch the bike, maintain momentum and move backwards a bit more again until you get to roughly the balance point where you need to repeat. When I started I found I was pulling the brake on too late which meant the bike virtually came to a standstill at the balance point which meant that any further scuffs just sent me over the bars so it's a case of getting the timing right to keep momentum flowing. Or something like that!

Eloquently put.
