  1. From about 6:45ish... will be... in various places, maybe cya there.
  2. Purple Womb Broom Nice sidehop fatty!
  3. I'm not sure that would really help But thanks. We are quite sure this is an isolated incident, but just wanted to ensure everyone is aware of this bogus email address. Thanks Adam
  4. I don't think so - they could just hack any email address and find some purchase confirmation emails... then away they go.
  5. Update 1st December: We have now traced various emails and other communication back to their source and it appears that this is most definitely a completely isolated incident. All customers should have absolutely nothing to worry about but please be aware that winners of the Santart competition will be notified on our website ONLY and we will telephone them directly afterwards - no emails will be exchanged. Many thanks TartyBikes ----------- Original post: We have received notification of a phishing/unauthorised email regarding our Santart competition. One customer has received a bogus email from a Hotmail address, tartybikes_christmascomp@live.co.uk, informing them that they had won a prize, despite them not having entered our Christmas competition. It is imperative that all customers are fully aware that this is NOT a legitimate TartyBikes email address and we ask you to ignore all emails from this address. Luckily, due to our highly secure order processing systems, we have identified this potential incident and have prevented it, but please be aware that we will never ask for personal details by email. Winners of the Santart competition will be notified on our website ONLY and we will telephone them directly afterwards - no emails will be exchanged. If there is a further update we will post it on the website immediately. Many thanks TartyBikes
  6. We do have spokes for a tenner by the way...
  7. Very cool indoor place, so much space!! *jealous* Cool pics too...
  8. I can't remember all of my course any more, but surely if the Ultimate Tensile Strength is higher the material can therefore be classed, in one sense, as stronger? Even if it can't, it almost certainly means it isn't weaker than other alloys which have a lower UTS, especially given the trends shown across all the other common aluminium alloys used in bicycle frames. Anyway, this thread is going a bit off topic really, pictures have been sent to Koxx and this thread isn't doing its' chances of being replaced any favours
  9. I guess so, but as you will know, the yield and UTS are usually very close in their ratios across all aluminium alloys. Perhaps the yield of K-Alone actually increases relative to the UTS (when compared with the other common grades)? 6061: http://www.matweb.com/search/DataSheet.asp...13bad6044b3f318 - 290/255 7005: http://www.matweb.com/search/DataSheet.asp...9a80ecbee94406e - 350/290 6066: http://www.matweb.com/search/DataSheet.asp...dc5b342ef1ab84b - 393/359
  10. Haha, yeah true, not as many knocks as a banger anyway Couldn't think of a better example at the time.
  11. http://koxx.fr/index.php?lg=en_EN&sec=...DB4589685607dfb - the graph shows UTS (Ultimate Tensile Strength).
  12. Well no, in fact the opposite: K-Alone material is stronger than standard (6061, 7075) alloys, meaning you can use thinner tubes to save weight and the frame ends up the same strength. This is ideal for skilled riders who don't hit the frame tubes, as they can benefit from a lighter frame. Think of it like a touring car compared with a stock car... One is heavier with less performance but will take some knocks, the other is super light with very high performance and will only take one or two knocks.
  13. Driving with one hand on the wheel? Didn't have his full attention on the road/controlling the cat?
  14. Which rim are you looking for exactly? (Colour, drilling, model) There may be a very similar alternative - or it may be discontinued.
  15. Tut, Ali stayed logged in on the work laptop... That's obviously not Ali on the Yaabaa Thanks to Claire for the pics
  16. 'These brakes come with a 1 year warranty covering manufacturing defects and materials, which also covers the sealing of the brake.' This has always been the same for all Echo brakes.
  17. Size... the main 'ring' is 33mm diameter and the bashring bit, if a complete circle, would be 44mm diameter - so it's exactly half size of the 'actual' bashring.
  18. Haha, that was quick Good man...
  19. Oops... white ones, hopefully before xmas!
  20. Wahoo! White for the winnage, looks pimp Light?
