  1. Looks cooooool! Nice one Rowan. Dont spray the forks white, they look gash in white!

    New Frames

    Nice work! I like the minimal graphics. Good luck with it!
  3. Yeah there are 2 versions i think. The one at £85 is all stainless steel and the one £50ish is cromoly. The bearings are the same in both BB's.
  4. SKF BFR-600 owns all ISIS BB's. They have needle roller bearings, which can take about 10x the load of standard ball bearings. Ive had other ISIS BB's such as FSA Platinum DH, Tryall and they've been poo.
  5. Yeah, unintentionally ofcourse :$
  6. Ditto! I would go for thr 16T bash, they are awesome. Just make sure you replace your chain when needed and this will not only stop you from snapping them, but make your sprockets last longer Ive had my Ti bash for about a year now and its still mint.
  7. Well done to all the Brits who went What was the singapore round like Waynio? I saw some pictures of the sections etc, and they looked decent and abit "different" to the norm. Stan.
  8. Yeah, probably one of the better Koxx Days videos ive seen. The natural riding by Kenny/Vince is cool.
  9. Your bike is checked to see if it has 6 working gears just before the trial. You can always ride the out of class thing with singlespeed though. Is anyone camping at Hook Woods the night before?
  10. In your opinion it does, but not everyone is like you are they? Many people hate high BB frames and some love them. Tim, I'd probably go for either Coust or MBK You can have a bosh on mine if we sort a ride out
  11. Is anyone camping at Hook Woods on saturday night? On the back of the entry form it says camping is £5 extra, do i just write a £25 cheque to EBTC? Cheers, Stan.
  12. Silly boy! I wana see the landing from that haha.
  13. SKF BFR 600, the best ISIS BB ive ever seen or used so far! Its a beast.
  14. Good video that, your riding seems to have improved more! The taps are silly big, aswell as the rest haha. Well done
  15. Nice little video, and yeah Tom is awesome for his age, and he is probably better at natural than he is street
  16. I ran 110mm, 10degree rise Hope stem with a 5mm headset spacer, was spot on
  17. Yeah, the pad wear rate seemed pretty good to me. Theres no need to run a super harsh grind a light sharp is the way forward
  18. Ive rode Adam Reads bike a fair bit, he runs 200mm Monotrials front and rear and they work really well. They lock very well, and the modulation is the best of any brake out there i think I run a 200mm Monotrial up front and its beast! So yeah double discs do work. I would say the downsides to a rear disc are: Its quite easy to hit a rotor when bailing or catch it while riding. If you hit it fairly bad, then your ride is over, unless you have a spare bedded in rotor (unlikely). Pads are easy to contaminate, like the other night there was few of us riding, and some mong touched Adams disc rotor and it went abit poo for 20/30mins. You need a frame with a disc mount that can cope with a powerfull brake and there isnt many out there Some of the advantages are: Your brake will pretty much work in the wet. You dont have to grind your rim, which will make it last longer. You dont have to faff with Maguras. If you get a disc working well, they are quite low maintenance. Stan.
  19. Pity you wont be able to see the logo when there fitted Im think i saw some of these pads on Kenny Belays bike when i was at Koxx Days.
  20. Ive had ago with some, i'd say there better than alot of pads on the market and they only cost £10!

    Mbk

    Me too, they look forking awesome!
  22. Nice one Dave, looking forward to them Is there still any chance of this indoor event/round happening? Stan.
  23. Yeah was defo a good day! Was awesome seeing everyone again, and the sections were really well laid out etc and were good to ride! Didn't ride that well but oh well, the after trial ride was fun, and the jumping was funny Rob Poyser is a gorilla! he can wheelie-hop anything Thanks to everyone who organised/observed Stan.
