Sounds about spot on GIANT black stickers want to be about size 90 in microsoft word (sorry, best way I can think to tell you the size ) In the plainest font possible Do you know what the Feebal logo is like or shall I find you pics? Would like some in yellow aswell now I've had a think :$ Ta!

B..But, it's exactly the same cranks and bash Hawziee always used back in'th day So the Turbine LP's are available in compact? If 110bcd is jumbo, whats compact?
-
I bought some old Raceface Turbine LP's a few weeks ago, then a Filthy ard guard a few weeks later, asuming the rockring would just fit, but the spider on the cranks is much too big/rockring too small Do these cranks come in some sort a compact setup or what? How can the rockring be too small?! Forgive my daftness :$ Ta!
-
Ooo perfect! Reckon you could make me 'GIANT' in plain black letters so that you can have the letters individually... Twice? Nice and easy And maybe a few Feebal logo's if I got you a pic to copy? You'd only need one small sheet of black stickery stuff Oh and 'MARTIN HAWYES' in fairly small plain text, in yellow x2 and 2x 'RICHARD FUNNELL' in the same font and colour

So are you replies to be honest, how about backing comments like that up with a reason or an opinion

It's all about the oldskool, I don't doubt that new products are infinitely better, and the little tiny frames I've been seeing are just what I used to draw and design way back when... But now I'm the grandad, and I want the Worthers Original of bikes, I want what would have been the ultimate bike when I used to ride, and I've nearly finished building it, and better still the whole thing has cost less than £250 Even if the stuff is old it's still damn good quality I can't see many of the new generation wanting oldskool though as it doesn't have quite the same special appeal to it...

Take your 'Peter pointer' finger on your hand of preference and pose it like an elephants trunk Next, you'll need a hard surface - a table is ideal Rest you hand on the hard surface and strike it with Peter pointer repeatedly and in any rhythm you wish
-
Why? It's the same principle fitting parts to any bike, regardless of its intended purpose! It's easy peasy to build bikes, things like cassettes require specialist tools, but most bike shops are decent enough to do little bits like that for free Otherwise all you'll need is some spanners, allen keys, and maybe a hammer

Of course the world would be better without religion, but even then we'd find something to fight over and kill each other...

What car do you have? Or pretend to have?

Ooo an ex con like myself what did you do?

Nope, but ask him if the head of Bikehut is still an arsehole

Why No Suspension Forks And How Many Fingers Used To Pedal Hop
Jolfa replied to tris's topic in Beginners Trials Chat
Trials bikes dont have suspension as they're a little weighty and would cock up the geometry of proper a trials bike and make the bottom bracket too high I only ever use one finger 'cause as above I like to have as many on the bars as possible, if your back brake isn't up to the job you should think about getting better pads, grinding the rim, using tar on the rim that kinda thing -
Nah, 13's a little bit old... Easy now, it was said in jest...

Right. F*cking hell man, yes! Settle down

The guy went there to work, and tried to fit in with their everyday life, he didn't go and demand a church and that everyone worshipped his god, THAT's the difference Surely it's be more like "f**k, why can't we have state pension?" "because the government have spent it all on housing teenage mothers and people too lazy to work" "well, wtf, sort it out." "actually, it's your fault, you never had an issue with it" "...erm..." This is why I can't stay in the country, I'm jumping ship asap So? I do that look but don't touch
-
Well said mate! Completely forgot the dirty looks I used to get when my riding and smoking crossed over before I quit biking, I know exactly where you're coming from None smokers will never understand why smokers smoke, to them the only reason to smoke is JUST to kill yourself Does make me laugh when folk tell you 'smoking's bad for you' ...No shit!
-
Yeah I think they both had a couple of bikes 'cause they switch between disc and Magura loads throughout. Bit crap init, headshocks would make your bike even more ultimate! I've got Bi-King - the Giant I'm building is more a rep of Hawziee's bike in that incarnation Bi-King's a less bare basic educational, more technical riding with helpful hints, soundtrack is equally as good, of course I had to download every song off that aswell Ha, you make me feel so much better knowing I'm not the only loser on the planet obsessed with those bikes Have you seen the American video's of the same era, Revolution, Evolve + Contact? All well worth a watch if you havn't!
-
Oh yeah, definitely, they'd set targets on the weekends to sell a certain amount of bikes each, which I ALWAYS met or exceeded, I did overtime all day, every day, the guy was just a complete arse Think it's a little late to be complaining though, was 6-7 years ago

Woaaahh there Tonto! It's not that any religion is inferior to our primarily Christian society in the UK. The point I was trying to make is that other countries would not willingly acommodate foreigners in the same way we do, and it's peoples views such as yours that if we don't we'll get shot or bombed that's the root of the problem.
-
Love it! You're right on the P-bones too I want my Giant finished even more now, worse than that though, I want the ollld ATX round tubed one (tricks and stunts stylee) might just have to track down an old mate for that... You should get some headshocks for it rather than the Rock shox!
-
Thanks, I'm pretty happy with it considering the spec and the budget I've done it on, cost me £2000 so far including buying it, and changing practically everything, even the engine

Didn't realise there was already a thread The current WIP And a bit of a money making project, which never seems to get done :$

Woops, sorry! Delete this then
