Gandalf the Yellow

and stop saying 'sick!' the bike looks mint..... could be worth a fair bit if you keep it in this condition for another few years, these old skool's are getting rarer and rarer! steve

ryan leech have just been pissed on by rowan's 2 wheels on the chain instead of his fancy 1 wheel at the time tricky. downloading the vid, i like the higher quality stuff [edit: omgggdaaaaaaaaa that is an awesome video. they just get better and better. some seriously sick nice lines in there, no time wasting. toppp!] steve

+1. im not so sure about the other pics, am i missing something? looks like you're enjoying the phase haha. steve

cool video chai, very enjoyable to watch. couldn't hear the music though because im at work, im sure its better with music.. steve

you can get new steerers replaced though? its not cheap though it's definitely cheaper than buying a pair of new forks. steve

those hubs remind me of the H hubs.... does look good though. steve

darn. its because the tribal zone website is french i automatically assumed it was also french... wow something NOT from china from the east for once.. singapore ay? so expecting chai to be riding one of these soon steve

rear end looks lovely and good weight for alu frame the french always have higher price ranges and better quality, am i seeing a trend? - (much like german cars)... steve

it's not coming on dvd is it? either way it's looking good, super smooth and i can't wait steve

worse dream i had was when i was on holiday with my parents and stayed in a hotel in the Fuji's where apparently quite 'haunted'-stated by the tour guide .. dream was seeing my mum in a coffin at a funeral, i'd never ever forget that dream cos i've never been so scared and upset in a dream ever. but then when i woke up i was like wooopey its only a dream steve

i'm happy to contribute, but it won't look amazing as people will be using different cameras/aspect ratio etc. lens?? it'll just be a big random video. but if someone does it then hey. whatever steve

or sell 1 of them cars so you have loads of money to rinse fuel on steve

think someones' taken the lead so far... steve

Inur: full throttle and still getting 39mpg?? thats well good. Pocket Rocket: ahh right i get you now, i guess i can do the same if i reset the computer every 5-10 mins then it will be pretty much real-time MPG measuring device...cos its worked out on average but i haven't yet reset it since i had the car.. steve

surely its easier with just how much petrol yo have and how many miles you're doing? hence the term MPG? but yer that seems well geeky... steve

here's an idea, don't get a new frame because that looks absolutely gorgeous. !! steve

unlucky hendrix. 2.4ltr. screw that thats double the size of mine, though you car is probably double the weight too... sorry had to be done. just curious and i know yo can't 'measure it' but how much gas do you guys apply most of the time? like mines less than half, maybe about 1/4 down on the pedal. and revs - whats your average before gear changes? steve

hmmm how old is your polo? i remember someone telling me that aged cars tend to use more fuel compared to when they're newer/minter? 36mpg, where and how long do you drive for normally? edit: prawny thats good for an audi pushing 240bhp, is the 99RON worth the extra pennies then? steve

the 1.2 is by far the best phase you can get, and i must say the bike geo is well tweaked i enjoyed having a little play with the box standard 1 at work (except the rear hub is suicidal) and my god it looks good with them white rims and your parts nick, from what i can recall those bar and stem are very mod-like? i hope you fitted a booster with the rear maggy too, cos rear end is super flexo! steve

fork snappage, its all those gap to fronts i tell ye. good pics dan, but serioussly i never thought anyone would buy them white tryall tyres!! steve

dammit should have excluded diesel drivers from the thread! moreee steve

right guys haven't been on here for a while and i'm bored at work and have been wondering lately how many MPG people are getting these days in their cars seeing petrol costs are still not cheap (though ASDA is back down to 113.9 for petrol i think ) - when driving sensibly if you have a trip computer that measures it for you then this is eassssy. if not you're going to have to fill it to the brim and do some calculations yourself. it'll be interesting to know: Engine: Petrol Size: 1.25 Model: Fiesta mk 5 facelift Driving Conditions: City+Country Combined MPG: topped out @ 41.2 today and its still rising Rated MPG (manufacture) : 48 Comments: i keep my revs around 2-2.5k most of the time and 3k in slightly hilly conditions... don't use air con and sometimes have the windows down but don't think they make massive differences. go drive and calculate then post away boys. steve

i want 1 for riding around the house on. steve

if only i didn't go mag, i don't know if i'll ever go back to alu frames though this one stands out especially for its price! yellow and black looks awesome. steve

about time. freehub version needed. NOW! steve
