I think the mounts that way would be mint! you could even then weld a booster to the seatstay brace thing and make it even stiffer. Although, that would then be compying my designs :-" but I could forgive you (N)

they copied my frame design!!!! ohwell, I (meaning tarty on CAD) decided the bb area wouldnt be strong enough :(" as for the rest of it, I aint too keen to be honest, cant wait till we see the prices, I am sure that will make it all better lol :( :-

bike 1) lovely :- I love its looks, I also like the seatstay area but its hard to tell whats happening because of the gloss black paint. bike 2) not my cup of tea, I never really liked the coust frame design, this is an uglier virsion bike 3) less keen on this one, it kinda looks like what the terminator would ride, surly the more parts then the more there is to go wrong? bike 4) this is more like it :( its got more traditional looks, not too keen on the dropouts though Bike 5) Sorry, not keen on this at all! If the dictionary had pictures next to its words, that would be with Ugly. I think Frame number one, with the carbon top tube of number 4, one piece bb/yolk and possibly the brake mounts of 3 (if it works well) would be a top frame!!!!

a big fast looking one, with lots of parts, hard dificulty level etc etc, I want it to take me a while to do. or an equally big, hard motocross one (though, I doubt it exists :S )

I "specificly" want some addys, or just names even of some decent model shops, not just the ones that do the die-cast £5 jobbies and already built models. edit again: thats more like it, they look the part! Good job trialsboy560 :S
-
:S tryed I am looking for somthing just a teeny weeny more specific :P edit: Cheers trialsboy, I found that earlier, but I looked for ages for ones that I liked the look of, but then my eyes started to hurt, so I stopped. I will have another look.

I have been searching google for hours now trying to find somwhere that sells model kits but without any luck. I am after either motorbikes (I would love a crosser or trials one if they exist?) or racing cars, the bigger the better, I just want somthing to build and possibly paint because I need somthing to do! so if anyone knows any shops that do these kind of things, can you let me know please. Ta (a very bored) Al

good luck finding an inner tube that will hold it :o too late

oh my god!!!!!! koxx have stolen my frame design!!!!1111!!11 I must have done that design over a year ago, Tarty tryed to build it in CAD but then decided it wouldnt work too well as the bb shell would fall off. Oh, and the site is crap, I went on once and I wont be going on again :o

what were the results from last years outdoor champs? there was no coverage about it whatso ever!

VERY good riding! I had only started riding at 15 and I still cant do stuff like that at 20 :- top stuff (Y)
-
mine is currently sitting in pieces after the left tab snapped off (the bit the fork sits on), its proving to be a royal pain in the ass to get a new part. I dont blame it for breaking though, it happened when my forks snapped at the disk mount and flexed forward, not many hubs could withstand that. I am sure mine cost me more like £20?

wide bars Pro: good controle opens up your chest, so can breath more air (dubious) Con: wider bars make you tired quicker (try doing press ups with your arms far apart) can possibly snap easier heavier cant fit through tight areas Narrow(er) bars Pro: ergonomic (to get a starter measurment, do a press up in the most comfortable position and measure how far apart your hand are) lighter less likley to snap can fit in narrow areas Con: not as much controle chest is more closed, so less air (again dubious) I have found a happy comprimise at 27.5"

I think that bike fell out of the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down then fell in a puddle of uglyness. interesting forks though :P
