  1. Agreed! Reason Corbyn won't win is that he doesn't promise completely unrealistic stuff. I really wish 'I don't trust any of you f**kers' was a box I could tick...
  2. Andy - appreciate the feedback! I also hate having to get used to a new site... here's some info that may help: - If you are on any 'category' page (eg. all stems, all rims, etc) the top bar is still there - hit the grey magnifying glass icon and the side menu appears. Hit the upward arrow that replaced it to hide the menu and come back to the products. No scrolling up and down necessary. - There is also an up arrow in the bottom right that appears as soon as you start scrolling up, that will shunt you back to the top of the page if you need. - We strongly feel that the site is much better for buying on mobile now when you know what you want, but I totally get what you're saying about the browsing aspect... Many people will just want to have a nosey at stuff rather than want to buy. This is much easier on the desktop site where you have a lot more screen area. The issue with the old site - for me - was that everything was way too small to see any sort of detail on mobile. I'll see if there is a way we can make a more 'shrunk down' version available for mobile - something like 4 or 6 items per page? Just basic details like a small photo, product brand / model, price and add to basket / options button? Not taken as an asshole comment at all, it's very constructive - thanks for putting it forward in that way
  3. Can't believe that is 6 years ago already...
  4. No special tools other than a T10 key, don't need to re-bleed

  7. I'm not even going to get into this...
  8. Huge mega bump Anyone got this downloaded anywhere? It's one of my fave videos and it's the only one on the Tarty site that doesn't work... YouTube took it down cos of the music. Cheers!
  9. It's anodised, but the blade will wear in the way you have described with the up and down play. It's a limitation of the way the blade fitting system is designed in the lever body.
  10. Yeah, the MT90 is good stuff, pricey but good. It's fully synth though from memory so may be too slippery for really old synchros. BGH (Google them if you've not heard of them Sam) recommend the Comma stuff for their T9s, so that would do the job nicely. Should be able to get it from local motor factors nice and cheap.
  11. Yup. Which box is it, Type 9? Change the fluid for a good quality semi synthetic (not fully synth) GL4 spec (NOT GL4 / 5 compatible), see if that helps first.
  12. Just specialist ones - that's the feedback I've had from them anyway. Literally they have told me 'If you have any more mods or plan to do them, tell me now as it will reduce your premium'. Yeah the V5 should be updated with an engine change. Well, definitely if capacity changes but in theory also if the CO2 / km changes I guess. As far as I know you just send it to the DVLA with proof of the swap and they take care of it.
  13. And having loads of mods usually helps too - they know you're going to take care of it.
  14. I wear mine, doesn't affect me at all.

    Makes sense! It'd be interesting to see where the lap time improvements have come from - as in, how much is from the tyres and how much is from the aero. Although... after some Googling: 2017 testing speed traps: 2016 testing speed trap info: 1 Nasr, 338.5km/h 2 Hamilton, 337.5km/h 3 Massa, 334.3km/h 4 Hulkenberg, 333.3km/h 5 Haryanto, 333.3km/h 6 Magnussen, 332.3km/h 7 Grosjean, 331.2km/h 8 Raikkonen, 331.2km/h 9 Rosberg, 328.2km/h 10 Sainz, 327.2km/h 11 Kvyat, 322.3km/h 12 Button, 320.4km/h 2015 speed trap info (fastest 334km/h) https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&ved=0ahUKEwjataDXjOjSAhWsC8AKHcgpDxwQFggcMAA&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.fia.com%2Ffile%2F27515%2Fdownload%3Ftoken%3D0wNuHT3D&usg=AFQjCNGPeVqh6F6CuF9F8C39_8f1tRWlIQ&sig2=DFJ2CYxyoAiaNMaBLfy45g&cad=rja So not a lot of difference between the 3 years...!

    Hmm, not really. Kimi's lap wasn't exactly great, missed both the hairpins by quite a margin! Also interesting how the 2017 lap is slower to the first braking zone... Sandbagging? Engine turned down?
  19. The hub bearings will usually feel a bit grim after a year. As long as there's no play, the freehub spins smoothly and there's no weird noises, its all good. Glad you got it to work, its fairly common for European manufacturers to ignore Hope hubs when they are designing.
  20. Seems like it'll be the perfect answer to a lot of 24" 'problems'. We've got some on order.
  21. First video was awesome! Such a cool vibe, everyone having fun... loved the helmet throwing too
