  1. Mmm. I think I'm missing the trauma which a very slightly misaligned rotor will cause. Set it up again so that it doesn't rub/doesn't rub as much and ride it.
  2. Surely what you're describing is a fooked rotor? Get a new one, set the brake up once and you're away. If I understand what you mean by Avid's 'tri-align' system correctly, all you do is loosen the bolts, pull the lever in and do the bolts up and hey presto, nicely set up brake. Not that I've ever used a BB7 before but that's how my Hayes post mounts worked.
  3. BB height being the height of the BB above the ground... Don't know what you mean by rear triangle size... main dimension there is the chainstay length, tending to be between 13.5" and 14.5". Seat tube length just dictates standover and 'look' of the frame.
  4. Does this mean Ian's got rid of his Boxx?
  5. Verwood in Dorset . Edit: Another few cool pics taken by Jen:
  6. Yes, particularly for your complete lack of capitalisation and correct grammar in every single post. Good job .
  7. A staple of Apple logic since 1976...
  8. I have spell check in FF. 'Tis useful. Afraid my hatred of Apple is going to stop me downloading. As you were people.
  9. Am I allowed to hate it without even trying it? I choose that option . Edit: Actually before I even download it can someone tell me if it acts like a virus on my computer like iTunes does, installing and running 3 odd processes which run all the time in the background for no good reason...
  10. To be honest I'd say your best bet would be to get hold of a new HS33 lever. You're definitely letting air in somewhere, most likely due to an old/dodgy seal... Your HS11 lever will feel pretty poo compared with the HS33 one anyway due to the design and spec.
  11. Well provided you're not running pneumatic magura's... you'll gain nothing from that . Why do you have to rebleed the brakes? Does the lever feel spongy? What are the symptoms?
  12. I used to get a little bit of fluid escaping around the slave cylinder bolts but as you say, the tubes themselves can't really 'weep', only split and leak properly which you'd notice immediately.
  13. When Maggies are leaking (even slightly) you usually find dirty areas where the oil traps dust and crap and so helps to indicate where any problems may lie.
  14. You're either doing something wrong or your brake has a leak.
  15. I may not know much about computers but that sounds really cheap. Like so cheap I'm surprised everyone doesn't have a copy just in case they fancy learning to use it. £192+P&P? Bargainous. Edit: [/sarcasm]
  16. I have no real opinion on the subject. Us scots actually know remarkably little about computers...
  17. Nothing a Dremel couldn't deal with...
  18. I say booooo. Where are the Kamel stickers Andy, where are the stickers?!!
  19. There's a difference between a ban and a suspension that seems to be being missed here though. A ban is only enforced (so I understand) after numerous warnings/suspensions and the person continues to persist. It seems like a lot of mods will give a suspension along with a warn just to let the person know they mean business.
