  1. So, what was the point in switching then? Im actually all for Vee's, i want some myself, but if they are only just as good as a magura, then why bother?
  2. We were giving is some proper pasty. Amazing how strong they are really. Did it with a set of old echo team forks, feck me, they took a beating, managed to eventually get one tube bent, but still, im not suprised they only snap at the steerer.
  3. Porters shell cracked, it was on here and Ali C destroyed his through being a northern monkey Basically, the King is always better, no doubt really. Just whether you are willing to shell out an extra £100 to get the better hub.

    Broken Xtp

    Gotta be a manufacturing defect/ material defect, as it would have gone at the weld otherwise.

    Ebay Opps!

    I think, as soon as you bid you enter into a legally binding contract saying you have to pay. If you dont pay, then he probably does have case.
  6. I think, not sure why, that mike may just know quite a bit about Ti. Doesnt Ti need to be welded in a vacuum? Sounds difficult to me.
  7. Haha, you make my laugh waynoiiii. Too many opinions, could that be because everyone has one? Still, i agree with your points, for once. No matter what happens, there will always be the haters.
  8. Feel sorry for all the australians, they played pretty damn well, and should have won in my eyes.
  9. Apparently a dead leg can take a week to fix, so he may not be completely fixed, but will probably play i guess. My dead legs last about 10 minutes, footballers are wimps.

    Sidehop Help

    Go to your right! Ignore the fools who say go to the wrong side.
  11. Portugal wont have Deco and Costinhooo (however you spell it) for england match, which is a bit good. Shame figo didnt get sent off too.
  12. Haha, awesome. Its snapped between first and second pics, weird that it didnt snap when it landed.
  13. If that is the problem, then maybe give selectbikes a call, as they may have one lying around.
  14. Old echo cranks had a removeable thread thing for screwing stuff onto. Obviously you dont have this thread, and therefore the freewheel is too large. I doubt you can still get the replacement thread so you may be pretty screwed.
  15. If you are in macro mode, maybe its too close/too far away for the lense to focus.
  16. From what i saw, the 24/7 will not really suit trials no matter what you do. The BB will most likely be far too low, chainstays too long, and frame too short. Best bet would be to get your hands on either a second hand frame like an echo control, or something which has fairly standard trials geo.
  17. Actually, you can run either a cog, or a freewheel, as long as the threads are the right size. Fixed just refers to the hub itself, rather than a freehub, such as a profile. Although, im not exactly sure what the problem is.
  18. I can do you a deal on a new frame when you do my site
  19. Running tensiles in 175mm length here. Bosh an ENO on there, with an FSA Platinum Pro BB and your off!
  20. Heh, i was just kidding. You do seem to have all the techniques pretty dialled, its just the strength you lack, which will come in time.
  21. Haha, i've got some far worse ones of him here, but it would be mean to post them. Cheers for all the comments, where is that ratcliffe!
  22. I have been photographing for probably 18 months or so, so wouldn't say i jumped on the bandwagon. I did however jump on the digital one, 350D fo sure.
  23. You would benefit far more from learning to gap properly Cranks aren't really a component that can hold you back much, so it may help, but probably not noticeably.
  24. Park BBT-2 has a big ole centre hole, should fit. It fits my FSA Plat Pro.
