    (didn't see the point in a new topic) Anybody used a DMR 120*7 and TRY all bars? or used a 120x7-9 with tryall bars? Input on what it feels like would be great thanks. Cheers Tom
  3. Yeah but what is the point in that, admitadley youll get a new tool, but every time it brakes youll have to go to the shop to get a new one, just buy some decent tools in the first place and youll never have to arse around replacing poor quality tools
  4. Right boys and girls :) I went to my local helicoiling people and they said they could helicoil my frame BUT they would have to drill into the tubing underneath to get the tap all the way down, so i was a bit (Y) ;) Will this damage the frames strength? likely to crack? or what, i was thinking it might, but after much thought it might not due to it still being held together by the mount. Any way will this damage the frame in anyway? Cheers Tom
  5. where they all analy fisted...
  6. Get a t-rex, i recently bought one and they ride EMENSELY nice, really stable on the back wheel, comfortable to ride aswell( i know it sounds weird for a bike with no seat but i know what i mean). T-rex (Y) Tom
  7. Haha i dont feel sorry for you one bit now (Y) , you deserved it, racial abuse wasnt called for in that situation, just look away and say sorry bud (Y) But NOOO u had to be 'ruud', i bet you wear an anti racism wrist livestrong style band aswell, to be 'kool' Tom
  8. but he did get time to
  9. No, due to the fact if you know where they live, they probably know where you live, and a few petrol bombs would propabably be thrown into multiple windows, Or they WILL nick your bike.

  11. (Y) you only look about 5,9 in your vids, you look preety small, but 6,4 :S
  12. Yeah everyone should wear a helmet, but i think the comment about 'you feel quite self consious' is very true, once i had rode with a helmet for about 2-4 weeks i felt totally normal asif i wasnt wearing one and i felt loads more confident then i did without one. Cheers Tom
  13. Didnt onza do a 3 peice convertor for front freewheels to be fittedto ddg driver cranks? couldnt you ring superccles and enquire? Cheers Tom (sorry if there any dodgy spellings, schooll keyboards suck)

    T-rex

    I bought a t-rex frame over the weekend and when i got it i asked for a new set of rear brake bolts *kid walks into back gets me 4 brake bolts, the actual ones* hands them me, and when i get home buildign the bike up and put the bolts in the back brake and there too long to go to the bottom of the mounts! Anybody else had this problem??? Also is it ok if i chop about 5mm off these bolts to make them fit, as im using spacers and cant get the proper tension on the plates needed to hold the brake Cheers Tom
  20. Spot on, i do that then its still not tight enough (Y)
  21. Right i bought a new frame over the weenend and the steerer tube needed cutting, so i ssliced it off and instead of fitting a star nut i though ill buy a hope head thingy, and when i fitted it it just spins, it gets so tight then just spins in the steerer, is there some way these are meant to be fitted, or do they just not work in onza tuff guy forks? Help me, please? Cheers Tom
  22. Mans got style! But you cant beat a good old cheese sarnie! best thing ever!
  23. LOL puttin a bee on a bit of string in a wind tunnell
  24. are you using a proper gear cog(such as a king kog?) or a freewheel? if its a freewheel its normal as freewheels are not toally perfect when made, there a little offset so the chain tension get tighter sometimes when pedaling backwards. this could also apply to cogs aswell i suppose? Tom
