  1. You ever caught this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unbeatable_Banzuke#Courses on Challenge TV or Channel One?? Bit of trials on there, some pretty sick competitors!
  2. Hannah my dear, if I could get that I would live in it and f**k the rented house off! Might consider this, gotta price up all the wood and stuff Did consider it but would like at least a small worktop to do odd jobs and stuff on when the weathers crap. Gotta run it all by the landlord first an he'll probably say no anyway!
  3. I mean so you don't have 20 different icons at the bottom for all the open windows, it just nicely groups things up for easy access. If you right click them you should be able to take them off the taskbar if you don't want the icons on when your not using the program.
  4. Definately, I wrote a letter in to MBUK years ago on that exact subject! Still got my mint sauce tee in the draw at home as well!!
  5. Like muel said it's so much easier if you've got multiple windows open, takes a bit of gettin used to but it's worth it once you do. Just keeps the taskbar empty and makes it easier to find what you want rather than going off a tiny bit of text.
  6. I keep seeing pics of peoples wheels with the sidewall drilled and wondered if it's worth doing. How much weight would you save on both a mod and a stock as both my bikes are pretty lardy and I'm looking at ways of shaving some grams off. Especially on my stock as I'm gonna get a tryall sticky rear tyre which is bloody heavy! Also, if it is worth doing the has anyone got any tips when doing it??
  7. Is this for a trials setup? Can't see pics as I'm online at work! If it is trials then I know onza did a trials specific mech??
  8. Bit OT but I remember years ago when my cousin used to work at a local bike shop, Mark Anthonys, and the owner Mr Anthony treated himself to a Ferrari. He advertised this blatantly in his ads in MBUK and the like saying if you bought a full bike from him you got a ride out in his motor with him. This was all well and good until about 2-3 months later when it went into the garage for some work and he got told it was a cut and shut and only good for scrapping!! Made even funnier cause the guy was c**t anyway!!!!
  9. Tartybikes used to sell a short cage onza rear mech but it looks like they've stopped selling them. Might be worth a phone to enquire if they can still get hold of them maybe??
  10. Get it made, then make a load more to sell on here!!
  11. Have you read the forum guidelines?? The 5 votes aren't so you can be a trials rider or go out riding, it's so the rest of us on the forum know your not a cock who's gonna spam all over the forum, give members loads of abuse or scam people out of money/parts in the for sale section then completely dissapear only to return under a different username. You can still share your passion for riding in the new members chat section and feel free to check out when group rides are happening and tag along, and when you've made some good posts which show your interest in the sport, give good advice or ask for good advice people will soon enough vote you into the full section. The forum isn't being discriminatory, just trying to keep the board free of adverts and general wankers (not aimed at yourself)! Hope this is what your were looking for?!
  12. Would be interesting to see, just a case of making sure it seals properly!
  13. Just a few allen keys and a sink/washbowl. Washbowl's probably a better idea as otherwise you get oil EVERYWHERE! Luckily I did mine at work so it didn't matter!
  14. Does anyone know a good supplier, either online or in north Derbyshire, of decent quality well priced sheds?? I'm moving house tomorrow and gonna rent for a while but the shed that's at the house we're having is a piece of crap and there's not a prayer that either of my bikes are going anywhere near it! The current one is a beat up old 6 x 4 a bit like this but incredibly rundown and rotten so I'll be replacing it wether the landlord like it or not for something more substantial. I know it's a bit of a weird question but does anyone have any suggestions??
  15. Well yeah you could with the adaptor kit but the bike itself is still a big waste of cash. Don't know why I forget about the evo kits as I used to use one myself!!
  16. Wouldn't do much good as even if we think it is stolen it makes no difference without an owner to pair it up with!
  17. No, and I wouldn't recommend a rip anyway as they have 20" rear wheels as opposed to the general standard of 19" rear so you couldn't do much to upgrade the bike and would probably struggle to sell it as well!
  18. Just gotta see if anyone on here knows someone who's had one nicked. Though you'd think there would be a post if they had.
  19. 'kin soap dodgers, get a job!! Served my time there, for about 3 weeks!
  20. Does this mean the site is almost ready??
  21. For good pads I'd recommend some heatsink yellows, google heatsink for the website!
  22. If there's any decent 2nd hand ones about for the same price get one of them but if not I would just get the onza. I've got Echo TR's on my stock and was gonna get the same for the mod but couldn't afford to spend that much as it was only supposed to be a bit of a toy for when I was bored but it gets a lot more use than the stock now and the hubs spot on!
  23. At a guess I'd say it's either a bit loose and/or needs a good grease up on the BB threads and the spindle.
