  1. Right, not really done much to this since the end of last month, but finally gotten around to fixing the rear puncture this morning, Although, both front AND back break are shagged. But, it's all in one piece at the moment, and it's sunny so im gonna get ready and ride into town to see how bad the buckle on the rear wheel is, and to see if this new BB is in properly. Will update with new pics later on i reckon
  2. We're starting to look like a bike again. The front V system seems shagged, will have to replace once the back wheel is straightened and back on, then it's ready to ride! Dug out my old BMX seat to replace the haggard old seat that came with the bike
  3. looks pretty slick mate, gj the only thing i do have to say is the white grip dont really fit with the rest of the colour scheme you've gone for,
  4. you'll never get the frame AND the pizza in the oven.
  5. haha yeah, i'd love to have that kind of set up, but unfortunatly i live on a student bursarie. So a cheap job will have to do till i will the lottery
  6. Well i'm almost finished repainting this, Just got a few more coats of laquer to go on then i can start putting things back together. Awaiting my green coloured pads for the V system on the front, to match the green grips. Considering more green in other places, but still not 100% sure untill i've got the bike together. To cover up some of these blemishes, Can someone suggest some types of decals to go on the frame?, If i decide to take that route i'd want something subtle, nothing outlandish Pictures to follow
  7. good stuff mate, any more vids planned?
  8. first couple of coats are on, there a few little blemishes where i've rushed, but these can be orted with a bit of sanding down and redoing, Decided on Satin Black to be safe, and the blemishes dont show too much. Get a few more coats on it tomorow and see how that takes. Here's a couple of shots, sorry about the quality of these, they're taken off my mobile phone.
  9. I posted this in the other topic which is similar to this one, but incase you missed it, here's the link to the page on wiki about wheel size http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/wiki/Choosing_a_bike
  10. s'up bro, http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/wiki/Choosing_a_bike That should see you right, have a look at the rest of the wiki also, some interesting pages on there to get you started
  11. Well I think i'm just going something dark, so if i do make a mess of it, it wont be horribley visable
  12. Here are the pictures as promised, although they're nothing exciting- they're still pictures non-the-less My new grips are here, New seat is on it's way. Bottom bracket is out, now i can get on with the fun stuff!
  13. And it's out! going to give her a good sanding down now and string her up ready for some nitromors and primer. Glad the hardest bit is over!
  14. urgh no one wants to touch it at all, goin got see my mate at the Renualt repair hopefull he might have something industrial sized to use on it Considering seppuku at the minute http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seppuku
