  1. Well yeah I was thinking of just getting the trailtech ones for the moment as I need money for holiday and stuff and just need to get the bike rideable but now that I know that the SL's are lighter i might have to change my decision haha
  2. Yeah my BB needs a bolt with an M15 thread and the bolt I already have i'm pretty sure is a Echo one as it has the same head design as the ones on Tarty
  3. Hey I've got a used set of Echo 7075 CNC cranks and a Raceface bottom bracket but i only have one crank bolt. I was wondering if it was possible to use the trialtech isis bolts with this set up? http://tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?produc...;category_id=55 (these ones) Instead of getting the Echo ones which somebody advised me to get. http://tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?produc...;category_id=55 (these ones) Cheers, Matt
  4. Yeah it does have wifi. I'm actually using mine to write this
  5. Sounds like you got a real good deal, it will look real good when your done.
  6. Why are there specific rotor bolts used for attaching discs to hubs? Reason I ask is that I'm converting to front disc and at the moment I have attached the disc using two rotor bolts and four allen key bolts as that is all I could find. Is this ok or should I go out and buy some rotor bolts?
  7. I've Got a Da Bomb Pro 05. Hopefully getting a new frame in the summer as the rest of the bike is a really really good spec.
  8. Get some Six Six One gloves. Mine only cost me like £15 and have lasted me about 8 months and still going strong. Maybe popping down to your local bike shop might be a good idea as I've tried some of the Kona and Scott gloves and i found them to be a little uncomfortable and I know i would hate to buy some and then find that i don't like the feel of them.
  9. Hate those white tyres. Just makes the whole bike look bad in my eyes.
  10. Hey i have a black version of your bike if you want to see it?..... has the stickers on though?

  11. Good man. Getting that T-Mag would just of been a step backwards.
  12. Yeah my mates decided to go brand new, think he might be getting the Echo's the guy mentioned earlier.
  13. Yeah I know what your saying, been offered them for £45 with freewheel, bashring and bb including but think were going to take your advice and look elsewhere. Cheers for the help guys Matt
  14. Yeah i want to get him cheaper cranks but until i get validated i can't even dream of all the delightful purchases i can make haha
  15. Hey I'm trying to help a mate get a bike together and someone has offered me Onza MuscleMan Cranks for £42, seeing as this is more of a budget build are they worth it. Photo is here - http://www.pinkbike.com/photo/2837998/ cheers Matt
  16. Here check this page out, information you want is about half way down http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/forum/index....p;f=13&id=3 Hope i've helped
  17. It happens all the time in other businesses, I'm surprised its taken this long to start happening in trials bikes and components.
  18. Although I can't really do much i do like doing sidehops onto narrow things.
  19. Oh right sorry mate. The risers sound like a good deal and like the other guy said a shorish stem. I actually have some Base bars and stem lying around somewhere, could measure them up for you as I think they might of been designed to go with that frame. (Not attempting to sell, just trying to give ideas)
  20. I wasn't actually riding at the time but i'd gone round a mates after a ride and was playing darts in his garage. Our bikes were leaning against a worktop just infront of where i was throwing darts from. I threw my first dart - 20 Threw my second dart - double 20 Threw my third dart and it hits back of the metal comes flying back towards me and lands in my front tyre. Only just finished building it about 3 days earlier and then got a puncture from a dart about two miles away from home. =[
  21. If you have a look on tarty bikes you should find out what your looking for. Heres the link for stems - http://tartybikes.co.uk/search.php?category_id=41 Heres the link for bars - Flat - http://tartybikes.co.uk/search.php?category_id=142 Riser - http://tartybikes.co.uk/search.php?category_id=138
  22. I'm finding my mod was easier to use than some of the stocks i've tried. There just much more compactand lighter, just makes starting out a whole lot easier in my opinion. Its mostly about personal taste, your never get a definitive answer on which one is better because everyone has a different opinion.
  23. Well if i were you i'd get an FSA Pig headset and i'd go front disk with rear magura If you were looking on the cheaper side then just get a Avid BB7, mates got one and its amazing Thats all i can really think of, alot of the rest is personal preference also i don't know so much about trials so couldn't tell you much else.
  24. Yeah i realise that they wouldn't go straight away and thanks for the estimates.
