Degrease, then threadlock. How are you tightening it by the way?

Weird... see you in't morning

Sounds like the same problem as before... cant really do much due to the rim being a bit wide for the frame Other than take meat off the pads...

2 fixes: Buy a new lever File/sand the piston diameter down a bit - it's sticking in the lever.

White spirit = no, it's basically oil... Pop down before 12 tomorrow if you can, if I don't have time to do it I should at least be able to give some pointers Ads

Because removing the lube makes the springs snap... The 07 versions come with oil now

Hey, he coulda been a skinhead

Weird, mine's the opposite of that! Although has a reasonable amount of bite too...

They are... hmm... Double Fighter I think: http://www.scott-testcenter.com/images_tec...ublefighter.gif. Great on the roads, fine on hardpack/fire roads, not all that good on mud and roots but at least it keeps you awake! Those contacts look a bit too 'slick' for anything other than hardpack (and tarmac of course) I reckon. I've heard of people having good results with the Mach SS tyres too. If you're after something to make your bike quicker on the roads but still be able to go off road a bit then you can't really go wrong with either

I guess so, but would you ride with a chain full of links which have been bent since they were new? I'm not sure on the figures but I don't think half link chains are any stronger than a KMC Kool.

Why half-link chains aren't great in high stress applications (trials): (Red arrow = force applied... gotta love paint). The plates are bent in a half link chain, so when you apply force they just stretch. You can see what I mean very easily by just folding a bit of paper so its a Z shape and then pulling it from either end - it straightens out. Do it with a fresh piece and it doesn't stretch a bit. Make the same models out of steel and you have the same effect.

Ah sweet, not heard of them, been so long since I was around XC stuff! I've got an Orbea Replay, with added Quad front disc and a set of Onza disc hub/X517 and Bonty RaceLite/X517 wheels with alloy nips and a set of Conti semi slicks, Echo stem and EA70 bars. XC bikes are fun

Nah, I'd be bored within a couple of minutes... For all the slow people out there I went for an XC ride

KMC for normal riders, KHE for bashers or heavy people with 16T front rings

It's all good, do me for false advertising I think you might have your language set as something dodgy... although I'm not all that sure Start - Settings - Control - Regional and Language Options, then set up the 'Regional Options' tab to show 'English (United Kingdom)' and £ (currency in pounds)... might work?!

'I have spoken with my son and it appears that he has not been totally up front with either you or me.' Just as expected... glad you got sorted out Ads

Pretty sure it's this one: http://tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?id=313

Less weight..?!

The amount still in use and not broken

I'm guessing moly is Molybdenum (spelling?) and LM is Lithium...

Hmmm... not sure, but in 160 size they are ~125g (20g more than a Mono Trial rotor) if that's of any use at all!? haha

In a skirt? Looks like XC bike wins... cheers people haha.
