Normal 'over, over, under' on the disc side, 'over, under' on the non disc side

Dot fluid swells the seals - you WILL make a right mess of your brake if you use dot oil!

I agree, Ali's bikes are always a mess

My mini review: Metallica ruled, food was waaayy expensive, most people tried to play too loud. Great day though

Pop down and have a chat Billy, I reckon you'll be sorted with the Pure

I'm not sure Supercycles actually have any of those in stock unfortunately, we've been trying to order some for a while but no joy. That date on our site is the next available workshop slot for wheelbuilds - obviously we can dispatch rim, hub and spokes as normal so you could get it built elsewhere Ads

Eagerly awaiting pictures and proof!

New Ali blog... he's a bit weird

the stackers are to compensate for the extra bb rise. The thumb shifter was left over from a comp, ts now been removed. The cranks are shimano Deores modded with a steel threaded insert to accept normal screw on cogs...the bash is a Atomz one. Its currently got 17/15 ratio, just perfect for chain tension, I wish my mod had the same tension! expect to see different lighter parts on it soon.

Now 8.62kg (19.00lbs - over a pound lighter than the standard build)... modified bashplate, new forks. Pics when/if I can be bothered Getting it under 8kg would be near impossible I think, even shaving 200g was a right mission

I really couldn't be arsed at 10 last night... and it'll have Tarty Trial SL brakes on it soon anyway

Are you writing in Australian? *groan*

135mm spacing, the tensioner is fixed.

More pics tomorrow... Hope you like! Adam

Rides well, looks sweet Ads

Like that.

Yeah, that's what I meant sorry, repair... still got charged.

Same here. And duty, and VAT... all on top of the value of the goods including the shipping cost. Then Parcel Force clearance fee, usually £13.50. I've never heard of an appeal against import tax being successful - I once appealed on tax I paid on a King hub that was sent back to me from King under warranty (warranty/non-sales goods are meant to be exempt from import taxes), didn't receive a penny. I'm guessing that on goods that have actually been purchased there's no way you'll get round it. I think you'll just have to pay it unfortunately, the government always wins!

Last one broke. It's the same as before, just black

You have a tiny wheel though

Yes, will do pictures when I get time

Arrived today I believe the last one was 1085, +20, 380, weight 2.14kg. Release date not set yet, price expected to be similar. Ads

We did, and Cox Web Design built/coded it. Most certainly isn't - every bit of code was written from scratch in notepad. (sorry for the OT reply)

Still waiting for Iolo to find time to do the welding booo...

Word of warning - Fatty's use a strange sized V brake boss... it might not be paint that's the problem but the wrong size thread!
