  5. thats what im using at the minute. Cheers lads. One other question, ATM im 14 stone, what size disc would you recomend? a 203mm? Or is that a bit over kill? would a 185mm do? Cheers Tom
  6. haha sounds good. cheers dude. Tom (any other info greatfull if you've had bad/good experiences with them)
  7. Right im soon going front disc, and i am torn between the avid disc and the hope trial, but the hope trial is a bit of a push for cash. So my question is, does the avid disc have any modulation for stoppies(i love them :"> ) or is the disc just full power straight away? also aware of the fact they over heat, but im not that bothered. Ready to make a sacrafice for the price and quality. So yeah, has the disc any modulation for stoppies? Cheers Tom

    New Pitbull

    And gear cable housing ends welded on, good bitta foolery there! hmmm i think not. Personally(if it is the new pitbull) i dont like it, it looks to compact. Might as well be one tube going from front to back. Tom

    Sstrials.com

    Ace site Ben,only one spelling spotted, on the media section, youve put witch instead of which (Y) Other then that absolutley mint Tom
  18. no i havent looked at the single track, im trying to keep the front wheel build on a cheap budget, but get as much for the money as i can. Ill have a look now (Y) Cheers Tom
  19. Currently looking into a new front wheel and this rim looked a good rim for the front, and quite cheap on a build. Any information on it would be greatfully recieved. I am aware the welded version would be a stronger rim, but there isnt and option to have one on bikedock hope 32 hole wheel builder (Y) Also it will eventually be used with a disc, so the braking surface being black dosent matter :) . And i have also noticed the sun cr-18 looks quite a good rim, any advice on that? Cheers Tom (if any other rim recomendations are in order, im after something that looks similar to that rim, to suit my bike (Y) Cheers
  20. Hope xc wheelset Chainreactioncycles do a great deal on hope xc wheelset build, they start at £159 and the price continues to raise the more expensive parts you add, but at 160 quid for a set of hope hubs on ex 721's is a bloody good deal, apposed to the 150 of deores on 721's. Tom
