  1. Middleburns cannot take a front freewheel/fixed screw on sprocket. Tensiles can.
  2. Well, as it was before I got a few nice comments off people, lets see how well this goes down. Actually them pics do it justice, the paint job is actually really messy, crap pics aswell, there off my phone.
  3. The above I agree with, slightly. I will add my two pennies either way. Big riding is impressive, yes, but it is also boring and repetitive I think. I admit I don't go big at all, but its not my thing. Smooth riding looks more controlled with the bike but you can be too smooth wich Imo can ruin the riding. not naming any names but I know one or two lads who ride super smooth in order to save their bike from damage and in the proccess seem to not improve in other areas of trials. Old skool? If that means linking moves together be it big or small, then that would be my prefered riding to watch/try for myself.
  4. It deoends on how broad your shoulders are, broad shoulders = wide bars as a general rule. Things should be in praportion to you. But still its more personnal preferance than anything.
  5. My diet consists of chocolate, crisps and microwave meals. I do like fruit but never have any in the house so twix etc will do the job. I find that as a general rule I am as fit and heathy etc as the people who eat healthy foods. I fairly much never drink water and yet I feel perfectly fine.
  6. Theres another new thing from hope, it isn't on the website I don't think. Summot to do we a carbon lever, I think its that any way, overheard it in local bikeshop.
  7. As a complet begginer bike it is a good choice. However for the extra cash its worth getting the t-bird, the better parts on a t-bird will not need upgrading as soon as they would on the t-vee.
  8. Don't piss about with stuff that isn't broken, fit it when your current one breaks.

    Booze Tax

    Am I correct in thinking as long as the parents have purchased the alcohol and give the child permission to drink it it is legal to drink from the age of 5? It may not be 5 but I am damn sure as long as the parents ok it then its legal. So, the good parents will know if their child is drinking and in theory should know if it will turn them into a tosser. (Typical chav) Underage drinking I don't feel is the problem, its dirty chavs who are tossers without being fuelled get hold of it and then become a new breed of complete wanker just because they have had a few.
  10. Rather difficult. I can do about 5-6 seconds on the odd occassion.
  11. The woodstocks actually slightly lighter. Thats beyond the point though, as a first bike or an 'early' bike in your trials life a bit of weight will help you gain strength. I have had a t-rex for two years now and have had no problems with it, no cracks notthing. Very difficult to dent it aswell. For the price of a t-rex the frame is absolutly amazing. It is a really good platform to build your 'dream' bike around, I assume you would be upgrading the parts as and when you break them because they will break. In wich case the t-rex would be a brilliant bike/frame to do so.
  12. You forgot to mention how shite it is Matty. It truley is terrible.
  13. Im sure longer chainstays give the bike a crapper feeling on the backwheel, but gives advantages elsewhere. Don't know fully though. Arn't monty frames a stupidly high price?
  14. i was actually looking at those stems, they are the same as the onza pz-51 stems arn't they?
  15. I fancy a change, I was going to get a new frame but decided I can't afford So, would a high rise stem make my bike feel like poop? Or would it make it feel nicer, I searched but couldn't find exactly what I was looking for.
  16. The bb7 is made by avid. I think chainreactioncycles.co.uk may sell them.
  17. Don't wear it, I really dislike the smell of aftershave. I also don't like smell of perfum on the girlies, the smell usually reminds me of piss especially if there has been a serious amount of the stuff sprayed on.
  18. FCUK and EtienneOzeki are my favourte riding jeans. I like riding in combats aswell, but jeans are where its at.
  19. If I can get there I would be up for it. Misses wants to come aswell Ooohh well should still be a good laugh.
  20. Worked for me, when I have zoo! pads, Just looks like a grind but is hardly actually there
  21. With that frame it has black writting on it and so I think getting black hubs/rims etc would look mint. Red also looks good with white. As I am sure many people are about to say though, don't buy something purely on he colour of it, just because it looks good doesn't mean it actually is good if you get me.
  22. One of my teachers wife was put on e-bay. His car was also reported stolen so he got pulled up and accused of the theft. Nowt major happned at my school though. We locked the maths teachers into a room before and randomly shit them up by banging on the door etc. But that about it, how shit our school was.
  23. I was just wondering, I have had my fixed brace removed and am now onto a retainer, both of witch I hate with a passion. Any one else feel the same or even have any sort of teeth movement device? Any one smashed it whilst riding etc? I havn't, thank god!
  24. Alcohol. That usually gets her goin. Talking to her intimately, not dirty talking though nice whispering of nothings etc, that is a real winner
