  1. I've nicked this picture from "Fatmike"(hope you dont mind ), I just thought, I'll fill in a few minutes and do a lil picture. Could be used for something like a dvd or video. I just got the names from the koxx website, as I didn’t know who was there. So here it is: Comments welcome!! [attachmentid=3592] [attachmentid=3594] Cheers Matt EDIT: One wid out the blur!
  2. I have a hole in my hosing, so I need a new hose what should I get From tartybike Supercycles I can't be ars*d waiting about 6 weeks for Chainreactioncycles to get the magura ones in. Which one? Thanks for you time!! Matthew
  3. I logged in and out and it still done that! Dont really matter now!
  4. 2. Cracked a Cannondale and snapped a MAD at the chainstays sold the second one before it snapped
  5. Just had to do that today! Snapped the axle in three places!!! Make sure you grease the axel and that before final assembaly.
  6. Why do that when a large one will do! just put one of these on the end! I think i have it sorted now! Ill find out when i get proper bolts! Cheers folks!!
  7. Before anyone says "use the search" I have!!! I’ve just bled my rear magura with water, well I think I have! It feels REALLY spongy! have I done something wrong? Right this is how I done it: 1st, Fixed cross over 2nd, Filled bath, 3rd, Undone the allen bolt on the cylinder 4th, squeezed the lever until the bubbles came out 5th, redone the bolt, 6th, fitted to bike! 7th, said " this is SHITE!" can anyone put up how to do it properly, with pics?! cheers Matt!
  8. Get that up to 100 and the world is your oyster! The 'lil blue square will go up when you post!
  9. I have one on m bike now, had in a year (maybe less) It got a few dents and its a tad egg shape, when I spin the wheel I can feel the bike moving up and down. Am going to get a Ronnie, new spokes and get a good build for once! my dads done all mine! there good but they don't stay true for that long (2 weeks MAX!) Cheers Folks!
  10. 2 Bolts are at the bottom, SILLY!!! http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=8215 Not bad for a tenner, Sticking to my Control Booster though
  11. I'd get an Echo Control Short. Really nice frame and there cheapish Linkagggge! I have the 2004 model with fattys and the wheel base it ABOUT 1070ish IMO the Echo look better! What about the Adamant A1 or A2? too much bb rise?
  12. I think its an old base! I tryed stripping mine with wet and dry, took ages and looked poo!
  13. I can't i have 32 hole hub ! They look good!
  14. Yeah Iv had and still got a Mavic, they are really good rims, had it about 2 or 3 year and nothing! still round! BUT I have an Echo so it wont fit!
  15. There the same rim, aren't they, the only difference is the Onza ones don't have "try-all" on? or am I totaly wrong? I'm guna get the ronnie! don't want a HUGE rim like the Echo!
  16. Come on Folks Help me out here! Please
  17. In need of a new rear rim. Narrowed it down to 3: Echo 2006 Onza ronnie Onza Hog What are they like? Will I have any trouble with the Echo rim in a Echo Control? Not that bothered about how the rim last after a few grinds, cause I don't grind! I'm not that hardest of riders, but I don't want it to last 2 weeks. Could I use the Echo Front rim on the rear? Any other rims I could look at? Cheers Matt
  18. I hate grinds for a few reasons: 1) I can't do a good one 2) I can't be arsed doing it! TAR RULES on Zoo! pads! And the sound is good! i don't like brake that don't make a noise, when its loud I think its working better!, and people move out on my way! Don't work in the wet! and neither do my pads! Well thats my opinion
  19. I vote for the Echo Control, really nice bike! Iv got the 1065 but with fattys its more like 1070 mark, Best 180 pound iv spent (second hand) I think you can get 'em from Selectbike.com for pretty cheap, and Tarty i think! Tuff as hell, landed on the down tube pretty heavy and NOTHING! Go Echo!!
  20. Had a REALLY quick go! Don't look that good, thats just my work! Would look a bit better if i had more time! Get green rims and see! I also done the lever green too! Told you it was crap!
  21. This in a front cover for a shop I'm doing! (graphics) What do you all think what could be made better? Cheers Matt Comments please good & bad
  22. That look proper bad! Why laugh, we would have needed a hug after that! LOL
  23. No point it BIG drops! Hurt urself and ur bike! mine big 4 ft. And i dnt like goin down, ups better!!! LOL!
