  1. OE pads for the win on a road car.
  2. PSI is Pounds per Square Inch, it's a measurement of pressure rather than flow rate or movement of a volume of air So you could get a million PSI through a tube 1mm in diameter (in fact smaller diameters are better at holding larger pressures).
  3. Can't tell from the photo. Or you could just ride it, it won't die completely that quickly.
  4. Drill that middle bit out completely and make sure your spokes are nice and tight.
  5. Just wrap it in a cloth, be reet
  6. Cheers guys - yeah all (well, we hope so!) the info is on the site. Just over a week to go and we're flat out getting stuff organised now! Here's a full description of all the weekend events on the timetable, plus a few other bits: http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/tartydays2013/TartyDaysInfo.doc 'Big name' riders confirmed so far are Dani Conas, Danny MacAskill, Ali C and Tunni. Still got about 60 tickets left if anyone wants to come.
  7. I looked into this, apparently if it's too smooth that causes sealing issues. Haha. Definitely worth doing, yep. It may well be a high volume, low pressure system in that case. We've never seen it not possible with a track pump So it'll be worth a shot.
  8. What pressure does the compressor run to though?
  9. Bleed hose and a track pump should get it out. Our 'record' is 120psi, haha.
  10. You need to get some bolts that go all the way past the bearing, we see so many axles broken because of this.
  11. Onza will probably know -> http://www.onza.com/, bottom of the page.
  12. It looks broken (and stupid)... Because it is! Snapped spring is my guess too, another chap I know has one and apparently it's fairly common.
  13. Yeah man, that was pretty odd... Are they on the way back then? We'll get you sorted out
  14. Forgot how good Kyle was, and how awesome that song is... nice one guys!
  15. Up to fronts are pretty kind to forks relatively though I guess, it's botched hooks that destroy them. As for how often my bike breaks, I found a crack in my 4 year old cranks about a month ago, and I've had a couple of punctures in the last few years, and changed a set of grips, but that's it. As Ali says (and I've said before), selecting the right parts for your riding really helps.
  16. Haha. Dunno what Bropmton are like, but the 4-finger blades we ordered in December haven't arrived yet so I doubt we'll be getting any more!
  17. I know! Bloody amazing! Well done mate
  18. Nothing wrong with eco driving! It's actually very good fun and great for your general driving awareness, trying to anticipate a long way ahead to prevent yourself braking, keeping rolling at junctions and lights, etc.
  19. Quite liked my Small Block 8. Grip was fine unless muddy, cheap, light... Flipp is weird
