Cost, there would still need to be a lockring which would have an easy-to damage thread (and add more cost), not enough space to fit it all on a 128mm BB, people would moan they have to buy a certain company's cranks AND freewheel...

Haha... well I should have added socks, boxers and my glasses in that case

Tarty Tee Koxx Shorts Ribos Helmet Job done!

I would think about... 8.3-8.4kg with the spec you listed. (Missed bashplate/ring, axle bolts/washers, rear sprocket, snail cams, rim tapes, no ti/alloy bolts, and you'd have to make the tyres completely slick to get them to that weight!) Stuff from the list that could be lighter: Onza Hognesium pedals : 374grams meta TCS headset : 100grams alu nipples : 30.grams viz spokes : 200grams try-allBrakes : 772grams try-all foamgrips : 20.grams echo isis BB : 278grams Eno white industries freewheel : 199grams Dob rims : 656grams monty kamel brake rotors : 206grams try-all NUC stem : 250grams Is that crank weight right? Sounds horrendously light. Stuff like the chain and tubes wouldn't last all that long either I feel! Making light bikes is fun

Haha... yeah it feels wank (for trialsy stuff) to me, but for bunnyhoppy stuff if does work well like you said... Ali's just a beast.

The bars are not actually that high as the stem is 55x0 degree (I feel quite hunched when riding it). They are Aktarus bars, 3" rise. The ratio is 22:14!!

Yeah... had to work... annoyed..! Glad you had a good day, hope everyone else did

Ahh these pics were yesterday... had to work today

The bit where the bead is already on, make sure it is in the centre of the rim all the way round... It should then go on by hand.

In that case you would still get lots of blank white space But yeah, I see what you mean... horses for courses when you're talking about fixed/fluid I reckon.

Lol, you dipper 7.7kg... sounds doubtful unfortunately, especially with the list of parts you have...

My thoughts are that, as it's not overly trials specific, I would stick a flatter stem on and try and sell it as an ZC/commuter bike... The spec is quite decent and it looks in good nick, so maybe it would fetch £150-200?

Well, the migration didn't quite go to plan, but after many hours of hard work our new site is up and running! Huge thanks to Dave and Scott at Cox Web Design for their hard work with this one... Dave managed a 40 hour stint from 10am Friday to 2am Sunday with only 30 minutes sleep, nutter Anyway, we have added some new features and the whole look of the site, which was around 3 years old, has been updated to be more modern. The layout and functionality remains similar but it should be a bit tidier, especially in the shopping basket and left hand products menu. A cool new feature is also the automatic geolocation... international customers will have their region automatically detected and the price displayed with or without VAT depending on your country's tax status (check the top right hand corner of the site!). We also have a fully integrated UK postcode searcher to allow UK customers to input addresses much more quickly and accurately, and will have more handy bits and bobs added shortly. We also have a new Media Area - even the wallpapers have been updated! Rider page to follow shortly... As always, if you have any comments or suggestions please let me know. There shouldn't be any bugs/issues on all the Supported Browsers, but if you do find anything I'll get onto it... Click to enter TartyBikes: Many thanks! The TartyBikes Team

The thread size is M10 x 1.0... same as a mech hanger bolt. It's a weird pitch, standard M10 is 1.25 I think? Website works again now: http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?pr...;category_id=75

Bit late but I'm gonna head up shortly I think... will take camera Ads

Kinda... that wasn't that good of an example... there's a better one at 2.35 mins It works best into an up slope so you can stick it straight to rear wheel. I think the main difference between a 'Frenchie' and a gap to front is that you hit the corner of the obstacle on a Frenchie without brakes, so it pings the bike up again... a gap to front, you would land on the top with your brake on and stoppie in. (Well that's how I separate them anyway!) Course not man Good to see you up there. Edit: Just watch the vid Jon Mack posted... my riding has changed so much since then (for the better I think/hope!).

Couple of things... The front will always 'feel' heavy as there is less BB rise and the chainstays are longer on an Inspired than a GU. High BB and shorter stays puts your centre of gravity back and thus makes the bike 'feel' lighter on the front. The GU forks are relatively heavy, something lighter would make the front end feel easier to lift. What gear ratio are you running? Naturally it will feel harder to gap than a 'real' trials bike but then again with a GU as a second bike you should be leaving the proper trials to that bike anyway

Tell me about it Yeah shame not to see Ali ride from the sounds of it!

Had a really good ride... even remembered to take my front wheel this time Right... not a lot of variation in the moves but Jon's done a good job with the pics, thanks! Up to front wheel/stoppie Sidehop preload Exaggerated tuck (Actually made the sidehop a LOT harder to make, haha) Sidehop with a pretty big sideways gap too Up to Frenchie Stan massive sidehop, again with decent sideways gap Sidehop to rear Gap to Frenchie Sidehop Gap to front wheel Hope you like em!

That's why I hadn't heard it then haha. Cheers

Sweet... Who does that version of the song please? Looked like an awesome day

Really tricky to say... we have been working on it solid since 10am yesterday though - we're hoping it will be fixed soon, sorry for any inconvenience!

Lol, you tease!

Approx 1010, 362, +55 I think.
