  10. I have noticed the bolts are a tad shallow but when i got a new 6mm alan key i aint had any problems since and wheels been in a year! So worth checking your alun key is not rounded atal
  11. Rite, make sure you take the cassete off as 1st you need to get a pair of grips and pull the driveside end cap off the axle, should come off fairly easy with a good grip, Once that end cap is off just pull on the freehub body it self and it should come off really really easy, Nothing to stop it just pulling off, Not like an old hope and oftern pawls and srpings go everywhere, These are much better and stay togeather when u pull apart, Once its apart, Not alot too see apart from the 4 pawls and spring bits of metal.Pawls and springs just pull out too but take note how they are fitted in but fairly ovious! When your ready to put back togeather,The free hub doens't useually just push on becos of the pawls sticking out past the rachete a tiny bit, so useually apply some light pushing force,Get a terminal driver or something the same size and i useually push each pawl while still adding forward force on it and as soon as u push the last pawl it pops in and you can remove the terminal driver before it go's in completely, Sometimes allso it doesn't quite pup all the way in and thats becos of the plastic dust seal around the free hub body,just move it around until its in the right place and should pop in and job done!
  12. Looks really amazing this and hopes it go's ahead, My attendance at this would be limited as its quite far away but really good and every bit of luck with it!
  13. Hello matey, Just waiting on the new frame to come,Should be here anyday i hope, il be on a few more street rides and at comps as per useual so if you wanna have a go then just ask. Gav.
  14. should have replyed ages ago but just came across this topic, Yes i did ride them a long time ago but as they had chopper ther's no need for 2 trials riders, Loved them too bits, Maybe back one day who knows! Gav.
  15. This wAs a good ride and and good turn out!
  16. Quote from mr shrewsbury "Just go to a king or the old hopes mono's. Old hope mono's never fail me, and ill always use them" Clearly you go through them like water! I so far have been well impressed with the hope pro 2! I do understand ther does seem to be a weakness but like anything thats allways the case, My hope pro 2 is just shy of a year old and i have done nothing to it!! Its got some serious mileage on it! Its got me through everything in 2006 and even my bike has b thrown in a pool after a comps to clean it up so i cant complain about them, no matter what i have put it through its been amazing, still hasn't skipped yet either, I think the key is with them is to run them in, Its like anything you can't just go limiting your car from cold otherwise bye bye engine,I Put my wheel on my play bike for 2 weeks which i used to ride over to a mates or something so everything could bed in! I think this is really important to do if you can be bothered as the results i get are 100% amazing!
  17. I run 18 on the front anf 18 on the back on my ashton, so 18,18 Alot of people are like wow thats crazy light but get into some comps and im sure u wil change!
