  2. The only braided hosing I have liked is maguras. I have tryed Goodridge, but that felt horrible it made the brake reall spongy. I will only ever use Maguras braided hosing now, I much prefer it over any other (even plastic)
  3. sigh, 21 years and still to recieve any form of valentines pressie :wub: (or give at that matter)

  10. I prefer the march date also, I have my driving test on the 11th of feb, and will need time to find a car and get used to it. Its also my birthday on the 18th of feb, so I dont know why I said that as it wont really change anything (Y) next time I might padlock my shoes on (Y) PS I wanna see this "mint" pic of me drunk :)
  11. I would put my comments, but I think Dave summed it up pretty well with that review. I did find it a bit weird though, but then again I was only on it for a few mins
  12. fat mike will be home in about 4 hours, he's just left mine now. I thought the event was brill! I dont know about anyone else, but when there are fewer big objects, it brings out all the ingenuity of the riders. I thought there where some nice techincal lines (cool for me as I cant ride street for shit :"> ) Nice music too, just maybe a little loud :D Hard to tell hwo should get the Tee though :D everyone was pulling moves every which way. There was a GREAT party afterwards, everyone got roasted! was a right laugh, hopfully there will be a vid of all the drunks, oh and sleeping under a table isnt the most cumfy thing ever :D .........................Wheres my shoes!!!! :D I thought ogwin was mint too, too most of the morning to get over my hang over though, but once that started to clear it was a mint ride! I LOVE Ogwin!! Everyone seemed to be riding well, good on Bucky for snapping his bars, the nutter! funny seeing Tarty get a puncture when he didnt even seem to hit anything :P Over all, it was a weekend to remember, THANKS for putting it on :D :D :D

    Drill My Rim

    a hole saw is a drill bit that can be attatched to (nearly) every drill. but you might have known that?

    Drill My Rim

    oh yeah, good point. you might wanna measure how big you can get away with or just what size you think you can get away with.

    Drill My Rim

    I find a decent hole cutter works better than a drill bit. first drill a pilot hole to guide the drill bit in the hole cutter. Then finnish the job by cutting the holes with the hole cutter. I recken about 20mm or 22mm holes would be good in the back, maybe 13-15mm in the front. You dont need to dimantal the wheel, just do it from the out side to inside. dont forget to get rid of the burrs with a fine or sand paper. hope that helps
  23. I use 661 rajis They are REALLY light REALLY thin and in summer REALLY cool, BUT they dont last me very long, I go through about 4 in a year. They cost about £20ish. The feel they give is amazing! they are just like an extra layer of skin rather than a glove, soooooo comfy. They only downer is that they dont last long, but then again, all the gloves I have used in the past have lasted about the same length of time. I would like to try the Hebo gloves next if they are as good as mr Mark says. Actually, I wouldnt mind trying some gloves with a carbon nuckle, I am alway gouging my flesh when riding natual, it might come in useful if some punk trys to knick my bike too (N)
