Cheers - yeah, well, trick is to not put too much in to start with.
-
Been playing around with carbon fibre, come out 'ok' for a first attempt I think!
-
It's a manufacturer specific bearing unfortunately... As said, the Try-All ones are the same. I *think* (from memory) one of the larger sizes is a .5 too.
-
So it looks cool (depending on your taste, of course).
-
It's Ti-N coated (Titanium Nitride) - the same stuff they use on parts that are designed to have good wear resistance... ie. be very slippery! I know someone who had one and it just refused to work unfortunately.
-
For batch production, there's no way they wouldn't use a jig, it would be way too slow. The weld distorts in cooling and heat treating, which could throw mounts off a little theoretically.
-
I think the BB is much higher on the Hex than all decent jump frames...
-
Finally found these, been looking for about a week! 16th Jan 2004, good times...
-
... so they can see how much of a tit you look in your chavved up Corsa, rather than passing by anonymously (kidding)
-
Which brake are you using?
-
20-30mm in fact (pretty much bang on 10mm extra reach per degree steeper head angle).
-
That obstacle = waste of £60k
-
They are the same stem, choose the one you prefer the look of
-
That's what she said
-
19" rear rims, tyres and extra long V brake arms are more expensive than 20"-sized ones... that's about it really!
-
Aah, now that makes sense... damn my crap brain...
-
Cost - having 2x 20" wheels is the cheapest way to make an entry level bike. Many customers already say that £349 is quite a lot for an entry level bike, so if they have to spent over £400 it would make the sport look very difficult to get into.
-
Hmm, which wheel exactly? What did Wheelpro say and what did we reckon?
-
Is it definitely the ICE they have in stock? (Not the Ice 2)
-
Haha, yeah for sure. Depends who the 'client' is I guess... As long as you know about and can work with both it's all good
-
ACTUAL flange diameter is of no use/consequence really. If you put PCD then I think it would confuse people, but yes, anally (engineeringy? ) speaking it is 'hub flange PCD'.
-
Bit of carbon fibre sheet from eBay, hacksaw, file, angle grinder, zip ties - job done.
-
Been speaking with Cédric and we should have something sorted out, frames due in a week or so if all goes well
-
Good stuff! Yeah both mine
-
Around 1998 I think: 2001: Anyone else got some?
