  1. If you're not getting enough adjustment of the chain why will smaller cams help?
  2. Tighten the bolts more. Think of 5Nm more as a guide- I sure as hell have always tightened stem bolts to more than 5Nm...
  3. Just to add my 2p I rented for a good few years (paying ~£650 per month) before buying a £198k 3 bed house back in 2010. Mortaged for £168k with repayments of ~£1150 per month (20 year mortgage). Probably couldn't do it on my own salary alone but with my wife's income as well it's fairly easy.
  4. However, considering Abel's fashion sense and the fact that I couldn't watch his last video through fear of seeing his scrotum I think Benito would've been a pretty good bet...
  5. I hope you change the sprocket, freewheel/chainring and jockey wheels (where fitted) at the same time as per Cytech regulation 2.45.7b, paragraph 3.
  6. I don't know whether to laugh or cry.
  7. One point of note with the Moto G for anyone that's considering it is that it doesn't have an SD card slot so keep that in mind when purchasing. I didn't know this and just bought the 8GB (assuming I could throw my old 16GB card in it to expand the memory) but that's a no go so I'll resort to using Google Drive if needed.
  8. Breaking Bad kicked ass. I've never bothered getting into those sorts of long running series' (never watched an episode of 24, Lost got boring after a few episodes etc.) but I watched every series of Breaking Bad over a period of a couple of weeks last year and loved it.
  9. I take it he then disassembled a Protec (or similar) and riveted the straps onto one of those. Not rocket science
  10. You should ever have bothered with the Neon's or Because forks if you were riding brakeless! Trialtech should last longer but if it were me I'd be getting some Inspired forks on there.
  11. What sort of riding do you do?
  12. Can you do that? I was looking at it but since it's free to get another micro SIM from Giffgaff and seems really easy to transfer to a replacement SIM I only thought about chopping my standard SIM down for a minute.
  13. Just ordered a Moto G on your advice to replace my Huawei G300. Hopefully it's as good as y'all say.
  14. Can you not just stick some washers between the cranks and the chainring?
  15. Sorry I can't watch that because of the shorts. I take it his next video will be edited to It's Raining Men?
  16. I thought all the slopestyle stuff was being commentated on by Ed Leigh and some other snowboarder dude who both know their shit... Lizzy Yarnold looking really good for gold on the Skeleton. For anyone who cares she's also really nice and properly down to earth. Fingers crossed
  17. For reference that value comes from the fact that bike chains have a 1/2" pitch (that is each pin is 1/2" or 12.7mm apart) so adding a half link extends the chain by 1/2" but because the chain wraps doubles up on itself to create a loop it actually alters the wheel position by half that or 6.35mm.
