  1. Shall i just leave the friend bit blank? Or have you got a code?
  2. £140 + postage is the price. jessops develop onto cd for like 99p extra i think.
  3. There shouldnt be any play, but you dont wanna overtighten the collar itself. The bolt to hold it in place can be as tight as you want (up to a point obviously)
  4. Ah right. Get a ronnie then. Guy from onza said they are dx32 with stiffer sidewalls.
  5. Theyre the same as koxx rims, which aren't amazing. Eyelets makes no difference in trials, who pulls spokes through anyway?
  6. There were a few dodgy echo rims when they first came out, but i think theyre all up to standard now. They are much better than koxx, viz or hog rims. I would say get one, as ronnies are your only other option.
  7. There should be an option in general to change it. I have xp professional, so that may be why its different.
  8. Create a new shortcut, just drag the link onto your desktop. Otherwise, right click link, properties, target > put in your f: stuff.
  9. So.. as far as i can tell; You've not really beaten the price of echo (who i assume is your main competitor) Your frame looks worse than dengs stuff, he keeps designs separately, where you have jumbled them all together. You have super short stays, which will make tyre clearance dodgy unless you changed something from the echo design. I dont like being negative, but are there any plus points? Hats off for trying though.
  10. Wouldnt like to get up before wiping, even if it was to dodge a missile.
  11. Is the bolt coming loose? If so, locktite it? Or just give it some pasty.
  12. Might as well, if you know how then theres no reason not to. Else, use the time to earn some money and save for a tensile freewheel
  13. They can fire missiles through a door and kill you whilst you take a poo, thats a fact!
  14. Theyve just stitched loads of images together. It would be insane to get that much detail from one picture. You can even see where the exposure has been different and the ground changes colour.
  15. On the subject of BB5 verus BB7, i wouldn't consider getting the BB5. My mate has one, and it never really seemed to work anywhere near as good as my 7. And the 7 looks a hundred times better.
  16. If you arent bothered about modulation, might as well go for a 205 avid. Any well set up avid should be able to lock on pretty much anything.
  17. I eventually managed to find a google translator for that, but christ. At least you get it all together on here, else you would be butt raped.
  18. By the sounds of it, left foot forwards is very wrong for you. Learn right foot forwards and you'll be off!
  19. Its probably worth £45, but all ISIS BB's are pretty rubbish for trials because of the small bearings.
  20. Internal will be the same as the fsa or whatever BB's. The bearings are small and die. External is in theory much stronger as the bearings can be bigger.

    Chain Tugs

    Ones without notches suck, well mine did. They just kept moving. Fresh ones look good.
  22. Ah, i meant its leaking at the master caliper thingy, rather than the lever. I guess its screwed, ill try a different hose fitting thingy.
  23. Cracked 3. T-pro and 2 old echo teams. Woop Woop. Echo is still going strong, both stays are cracked now. Havent snapped any yet.
  24. Profile have 48, CK have 72. Ck has a better engagement system, despite what people say. If you have a profile you may as well stick with it till something breaks.
  25. Righto, my shit bag hosing is crap. It was all working great until two weeks ago. I picked my bike up (after leaving it outside over night) and the lever pulled to the bar. I boshed some tpa on till it worked, and went riding. Over the day it gradually pulled further and further, until i could ride no more, at which point i went home. Last weekend, i bled it, tightened all the bolts, all gravy. Went riding, and the lever pulled to the bar after about an hour, uber gay, so home it was. Then i made sure everything was tighter than tight, fresh bled, all solid. Go for a buzz outside to test its all gravy, and it is. Or so i think. I go to put my bike away and give it a good squeeze to make sure its alright, and have a look at where i beleive it was leaking from, and water comes out. Mother trucker. Water is coming from the part which goes into the master cylinder from the lever. What's wrong! (It's all tight)
