If you get down to it, it does actually have a different head tube and top tube... but yeah, essentially, a tweaked T-Rex.

Hmm... check on your spoke lengths... 165mm wont work well for any combination of crossings :blink:

165mm is waayy short for 4x. You need around 180. What exactly have you got? Spokes (length): Rim (model, holes): And how are you trying to build it? (4 cross i presume?) Any pictures? Adam

Spokes are too long then, unfortunately. What lengths and rim have you got? Rear 36H Profile Mini Cassette yeah?

Get some tension in there, that will sort it out :blink: Same amount of turns on each spoke.

We still need to see Andy fire off 6 rounds, reload, and then fire another 6 rounds in under 3 seconds though. Monkey = funny. Just put him on your ignore list if you have a problem?

Tis perfectly fine when the factory don't make it wrong. Like Lee said, get in touch with Supercycles. The use of an Echo bashring would require a fixed sprocket, however, you may not have enough thread in that case.

Hehe, storms rule >_< Got one now!

Most people aren't as sensible as you though Rob >_< Yeah, it's only (significantly) cheaper IF you have threaded cranks. Certainly a viable option even if you don't.

Danny's lockring came loose, leading to that accident. He's not really sponsored by King as far as I'm aware, just got a deal on a couple of headsets. I think using a front freewheel is more down to the 'fashion' in UCI. Either way, I'd go for a rear Hope.

>_<

You were there then, I take it? Either way, its fookin impressive, and none of us on here could do it.

Record you 'wiggling' your finger, against considerable resistance, 8 times in 1.06 seconds, and we'll believe you. Time crisis doesn't count, thats nothing like a real gun.

And more...

Bracken Rocks, Derbyshire. Nearest train station is 'Whatstandwell' if you wanna look on a route finder. £2 a day, open on Saturdays >_<

Street Natural

Ahh come on... dark grey is basically black anyway (Y) But yeah, you could spray them.

Pair of Mavic EX721 CDs. 28mm wide. 590g, strong as you like.

The crown on the fork on the GU bike is a different shape to that on the HiFi. I'm not sure if it was a prototype version or not, but there is definitely a difference.

'Ive got one to try out' Not given it any abuse yet, time will tell. I shouldn't think you'll be able to sidehop onto your mech though (Y)

Well, it will still break before your mech/frame. However, that style of hanger isnt the best, and very small knocks still make it bend (very annoying!). I think its a great idea, I've got one to try out. The finish on the one in the picture looks like its from chucking the hanger in a swirling pot of ceramic chips to clean off the burrs etc, and then anodised (as the description says). The one i've had hasn't been through the second stage, so it looks quite 'raw'.

Dan's is nicer ;)

I guess they do... but I've found mine soak up a fair bit of sweat BEFORE they get slippy, unlike a normal rubber grip which turns slippery straight away.

Have you used loads of tar previously? (Edit: I spy lots of tar on your bike picture :) ) And whats the setup like? Any pics of the grind? What rim do you have? Cheers

There's a link in the video... http://www.michaelconnally.com/ I want one too!
