When we bled my brake the other day we thought it would be best to get all the old crap out so I wrapped a load of tape around the top on the hose on the bleed kit, then put the footput on the end on it, put it in the pod as usual, undo the screw on lever and pump away, out flies loads of gack and sh*t. Then you have a pretty clean system, not as clean as maybe putting it in the bath but less hassle. Then bleed about 4 big syringes through with water and you have the perfect working brake. My brake couldn't feel any better, it was perfect. Rob :( Maybe try a compresser instead, may be a bit better.

O yes this man knows where it's at! Although the end of heartache is better Currently listening to: Waiting for changes-Feeder Rob (Y)

That colour looks wan* but im sure that can be changed. Looks like a godo idea but it's too much like a t-rex, needs to be more your typical trials frame, eg pure or woodstonk like people have said. I think it would suit my riding style as well, gaps and ups but some spinny stuff at the same time! Maybe a bit longer would be nice, 1080 24" (Y)

Could you please repeat that in english "ian", while your at it do all your other posts as well yeh! I think that was aimed at me wasnt it timmy, so now im a dickhead for pointing out that your not old enough to drive, f**k I should be locked up :- So what have we actually learnt from ian then...... 1. his boss has the world best car 2. he has no idea what a rounabout is 3. his boss is the worlds best driver 4. He cant understand sarcasm in it's most obvious form You've turned what was a perfectly good thread into some peice of crap. This was a good thread at the start, people were happily talking about the matters of speeding etc then you came along boasting about yout boss's car and quite frankly no one could give a f**k! My comment about my bike doing blah blah blah speed then I was taking the piss, I wasn't trying to say O look at my bike its so mcuh faster blah blah blah, I couldn't care less how fast it is, I was taking the piss!!!!!!!!! Now if you have anything to say back to this then "ian" then could be a lad and add me to msn so you dont clog this thread up anymore! Back to the topic shall we Rob (Y)

Muhahahah 3.5 seconds on my CBR (Y)

You've proved you dont know what a roundabout is (Y)
-
Well done viz look like you have another quality product there! ;) (Y) Just get normal trainers, look better, grip just as well, cheaper! Normal skate kinda shoes are ideal, like my etnies low cut 2s they've lasted ages, while mates trial all boots have lasted not long at all! The bottoms are to bloody soft! Anyway from the judge of replys here looks like your on a winner (Y)

Your CBT wont need to be taken on a geared bike, they just teach you basic riding and road skills, it would be much harder on a geared bike as well if you not really used to it, plus there scooters are really gay and small, and weigh about the same as my left hand. Your best bet is to ring carol nash, there the cheapest. For my first year I had a yamaha TZR 50, feggin quality bike. Bought that brand spanking for £2750 which was a bit of a mistake really, o well when i traded it in for my current bike I lost £1000 on it. It was £650 a year to insure third party fire and theft, that was with bennets. the only 7 speed bike I can think of is the caviga mito lol umm geared bikes tend to be a lil faster than the ol twist and crawls but not ALOT faster, you just rag it in every gear and just dont go anywhere! GET A DT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Y)

I do like to have music loud but not at the max, it just pisses me off cus its so loud and gets kinda distorted! I see what you mean about appreciating it more when its louder, espically if you get a proper good song on and you feel like singing your ass off but then you'd sound like a twat :"> I disagree with the music quality comment, when listening to stuff on my ipod I find that you hear lil instruments and notes that you dont normally hear through speakers. I've got a stacked system, good amp speakers etc but I still dont really hear them as well, maybe it's cus with an mp3 player thats all your can hear so you take more notice of it maybe. Rob :blink:

If hes pro then im the pope! O wait hes dead :blink:

Mew-156 outta TRA england2! Feggin awsome stuff! :blink:

No a small curve in the road does not mean its a "half" roundabout! :P lol i've been reading your posts and you do seem like a nob head yes. You really have no idea what your talking about and you cant really judge speed, stopping time etc until you are on the road urself, which your not! You say that he has amazing stopping times, well you have to have pretty good ones to pass your feggin test in the first place. Like someone else said just cus apperntly hes got "amazing" stopping times dosent mean he has the right to drive around like a "mother funky" :) I think that speeds on motorways should be increased but not unlimited, some idiot doing 150mph on the inside lane, car coming down the slip road, cant see him cus hes coming so fast, car pulls out and BANG! That lotus isnt the greatest car on earth like your making it out to be, there are plenty of other cars that are alot faster but dosent mean they drive like nobs. And this 100mph into a roundabout thing, BOLLOC*S!

CLICK More info there on the extra features etc^^^ Does look mighty good actually, hope are a wicked company so no doubt it will be awsome! Tartybikes says approx £120 which is more than a mono but I think it'll be worth it!!! Looks like it could be my next hub, getting fed up with my monos rubbish engagment and constant snapping springs. Looking good! Rob :) :P
-
Mint!! How long before we see this new hub? Sounds good How many engagments? Rob :P
-
I cant say i've ever really seen many people with a 26" profile. I know one guy in plymouth had one but his blew up after not very long, and there a lot more expencive as well! I think people just rather spend there money on kings! :P
-
Black or blue but hey who really gives a shit :P
-
Looks fine to me , Im the same. I find anything more than 2 foot past a bikes length really hard. I can gap fine it's just when it comes to bigger stuff I cant do it. When I really give it some beans as well then I land it really hard and it sounds horrid, how the hell does anyone gap so far but so smoothly? Nice one Rob :P :huh:
-
Yeah and there also less than half the price :P Get an avid mate, even though it's cable there amazing for the dosh. Easy to set up etc and work amazingly, great hold and the bite is fair good too!! Get a BB7, normal cable and an XTR lever and it'll work like the dogs dangles! Rob (Y)
-
I couldn't of put i better myself! There are some real good riders who use hopes etc and they do just fine. Kings are very nice with lovely engagment but I cant see myself spending that much on a poxy hub! It's not like its gonna make you instantly better or give you super gapping powers :P

As many others on here, I do speed but normally when in the right place to do so. I don't driver a car (although im learning), I've got a motorbike to get me around, some of you may know what bike but anyway it's no moped. Being on such a quick bike it's so so much easier to wind her open, not in stupid places like town or built up areas. I've learnt my lesson now, I did get caught near my house for doing 60 in a 30 but luckily the nice bacon let me off! I don't wanna be learning another lesson by hitting someone or whatever before it's to late. Just sitting at 30 feels like a snails pace, although I suppose it's there for a reason. Like what happened to DJ, doing 70 in a 40, thats just plain stupid!! Rob (Y)

You are my new best friend ! :">

"You think I aint worth a dollar but I feel like a millionaire" Quees of the stoneage- "Making two possibilities a reality, Predicting the future of things we all know" System of a down-Science "You and me will all go down in history, With a sad Statue of Liberty, And a Generation that didn't agree." System of a down-Sad statue I think that one is related to trials and some riders, like DJ!! :) "Born with nothing, die with everything" Papa roach- Whip it, whip it good" Devo of course, classic! Theres loads I just cant think, will edit later! Rob :) Good topic!!
