  1. maybe it's something to do with the extra clearence for having no forks and wheel? ie hopping into the wall with a lower front end?...not sure. but yes he does look like he has rockets strapped to his legs. steve
  2. curtis...ain't seen these for a while i thought people have got bored of and burnt all the frame in hell! lush bike steve
  3. pay more for an eno, if you're really struggling for funds then tensile is a great freewheel for the money too! steve
  4. it's just a mono trial, which has a custom colour scheme you can't get anywhere else! but yes it's a very good brake if set up properly, i've felt really badly set up ones and really good ones too (mine for example ), so facing the mounts and shimming it properly is standard. steve oh and 180mm is a good size for the rear, standard pads are good enough... once bedded in they have immense bite! but there is a downside to the brake, which is overheating, will eventually lead to loss of power and bite until it cools down... so if you use the rear a lot you may want to consider that! steve
  5. would you say they were your favourite films at all times? i certainly wouldn't............................. on another note...they can be entertaining if in the right mood ie. can't be arsed to think about the plot and just concentrate on the motors and poontangalang. steve
  6. was going to say...surely rich being a mod the TF community has recognised him as a trustworthy member to manage the forum.. anyway i've had bad experience trading with TUK too, and 2 of my mates...rubbish service and generally don't seem to give a f**k about his business.. steve
  7. that was awesome especially brakeless! well enjoyed that! seem so much smoother too steve
  8. standard. his level of riding is immense. however, the editing, music choice really bored me so i stopped watching....... steve
  9. that was a good un! rip to hobbsie. mike's gap to manual at the bus station.........whaaaaaat? steve
  10. seconded. they were alright pedals, i liked the longer body too unlike tiny dmr platforms. didn't loose any pins neither, but the bushing is shit on them steve
  11. looks like a death trap... i wonder what chains that bike uses. steve
  12. i was confused by the sticker! anyway you've got a Z2 disc (comes in white or silver) which shares the same geo as the standard Z2 (comes in blue) but all the tubing is slightly different, and gusset things near dropouts. steve
  13. such an enjoyable video, music went well. riding is great smooth yet big... and kind of slow paced too, which is good cos i can keep up. are you riding a Z2? steve
  14. when you said drilled i thought 'just a few holes...' after that pic! how much weight has it shred? i think the KOT forks is a great match for that frame, will certainly be lighter and look smarter too steve
  15. so whats happened to your monty to cause you building yet another bike?............ i thought it was the brakes not the cranks! steve
  16. i think the betty's @2.4 are slightly wider than 2.5 maxxis. it rubbed my Aorta (essentially the same frame) a bit. steve
  17. here's a solution tim.... buy new things from the shop! haha only joking.. on a seriously note, unlucky, like the other have said so far try and get a number, just got to wait for some git that actually has his number unlike me posting pointless posts. steve
