  1. They are pretty damn grippy, and not too bad strength wise. I snapped one attaching bit off, but i really was destroying it.
  2. Haha, i was going to continue it, but decided i would just sound like a looser
  3. It will be incredibly different to your t-bird (about 40mm length), so try one beforehand, as you may not like them. Zips seem very hard to sell if you dont want it, so bear that in mind. All the parts should fit both frames. Except perhaps the BB which may be too short. Maybe try a short frame as well, because you may like those more.
  4. Well i think it was advertising, as otherwise i would have done it myself. Haha, how can you not know who simon meant.
  5. If you paid for advertising, you wouldnt be happy. I didnt report it, but to be honest i'm not really suprised that others did. Afterall, it was blatant advertising. Definition: The activity of attracting public attention to a product or business, as by paid announcements in the print, broadcast, or electronic media. So
  6. You could probably get one built up for less than £650 using echo parts. Obviously not the top of the range stuff, but good solid bits.
  7. Thats nothing. If they wanted to mass market the toothbrush, you're talking hundreds of thousands.
  8. I didnt notice any difference at all in the actual feeling. It may even make the brake feel stiffer as it doesnt flex as much.
  9. He has indeed, Eta : 14 hours.
  10. I just boshed as many as i could be bothered to do, but the toothbrush is winning! Its insane, are people that sodding lazy. Its only like a foot away from you for crying out loud!
  11. Buy it complete and replace anything which breaks with the best gear you can buy.
  12. Well mine is 180mm, yours looks about 160mm. The holes are a different shape anyway. I assume tarty was saying it was a new style, i suppose its to stop them snapping.
  13. I wanna see loads of vids and pics people! Just last night i realised how much i would have loved to go, had to resign myself to watching andyT's vids of last year.
  14. I've also been trying to change my technique to go from the edge. I think its more important to do a little hop and really push downwards before you gap, as it makes you spring forwards more. Look for onzaboymarks tutorial as i found that pretty helpful.
  15. It might last twice as long, which compared to unex hosing and the reviews ive heard, is pretty easy. My magura braided stuff was great, until it randomly died at the end. Not sure why, but i think its cos it got caught on my tyre and pulled pretty hard. But get some if you can.
  16. Looks great, but how come your rotor has loads more holes than my mono trials? Is it a newer version?
  17. How did you make that effect? Is it pretty simple in good old PS?
  18. I like them, but use of the flash would have made them 100x better. Perhaps anyway, as long as it lit your face up.
  19. Heh, the frame does look gorgeous, theres pics of it up now.
  20. Bah, no fancy tools. Hammer and wood does it all gravy! Just keep checking its straight after every whack.
  21. Personalised google is mine, far far far more helpful, and that way i dont get distracted by tf from things im meant to be doing.

    Im liking the blue colour scheme, i may do the same eventually!
  23. They come as standard on the 06 versions of all full bikes, so they should fit all monty frames from the last couple of years.
  24. I think its just a sent it back and wait for them to send you a new one. Give them a few dollars and they may upgrade it to HD axle for you?
  25. Doh, proof of age. Theres me thinking i could just blag it as being my dad.
