  1. best thing to do is wack the blade out file it down and put it in a maggy body! all very well if you can find a lever blade for sale seperate piston leaked like fook on mine so this was the next best option
  2. when i was running single speed with a mech this happened alot to me as the tension was crappy on it. maybe the mech is abit dead? im not sure as havnt seen it oviously. also another problem i had was stiff links in the chain i was running at the time, it kept skipping over? hope i may have helped
  3. i converted mine looks alot nicer. also designing my own tensioner, made out of carbon
  4. i wanna ride the pool!!!! the pooooooooooooool!
  5. there awsome i could actually tell the differance when i put them on. i had an rb lever blade with coust pads and the plastic backings on them snapped even though there were the 35mm version. well worth the money and as said up there cheaper in the long run
  6. think he means the plastic backing version are 19 quid posted and cnc aluminium backing ones are 32
  7. in yarm once a school was having the roof redone and there was 20 buckets full off the stuff.
  8. theres a picture of my bike with one on, first post on second page http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/forum/index....pic=69189&st=20 that ok for you? if you want one you have to ring up hope and have it made. i got mine thorugh my local bike shop as they are hope distributors and my friend that works there bought it for me
  9. i have a very small seat so just say it shrunk in the wash. or act surprised or start acting like a crazy bitch and scare the little scallies!
  10. im sorry but mine looks the nuts and works an absolute treat!
  11. meh went to the local bike shop yesterday and bought the avid ones which come with the spring too. i decided i didnt need any more performance as my avid as it is is awsomely good. to anyone who isnt hppy with their avid as it is, id get a gothic rotor
  12. avid bb7 with a hope gothic rotor awsome bite and dont glaze over with this rotor on fooking amazing brake!
  13. i think the avid pads come with the spring but ones that arnt avid, eg fibrax and ebc etc dont. think ill just get some avid pads from local bikeshop
  14. cheers mate! any news on the spring thingy?
  15. 185 and it works abit of a beast with the gothic rotor on..........any other opinions seconding this?
  16. hi there i need some new pads for my avid bb7 and was wondering if its worth gettin the ebc red pads for it? can anyone help? also does anybody know where to purchase the little retainer spring that holds the pads in properly? mine got caught in the gothic rotor some how still works but bit dodgy....... thanks
  17. meh love my ipod, i put the new trial media video on it today and watched it in the comfort of my bed
  18. strech a little bit more and buy some new toxin forks with disc and reverse 4 bolt mounts get in touch with shop@mereytrial on this forum
  19. on mine i tryed to run it with a 113mm bottom bracket and the chainwheel on the front was digging in the frame so i got a wider bb. problem solved. although mine is anything but standard. if the front cog was cutting into the frame and it was ridden after you noticed it was then it is excessive abuse, but you could also complain that its a manufacturing defect because they didnt build it with a wide enough bb. also whats with all this 'the frames are shit' etc. ive got a team issue frame which is the same but has 4 bolt mounts and for the price it cost id never complain about it, it rides amazingly well
  20. looks great as it is! especially with them forks! red on rear is great!
  21. i just stick my rotor in washing up bowl and take pads of and rub them on a flat bit of wet and dry. that works just as well then put back together and then pour water over the caliper and rotor ride as fast as you can and slam the break on. then do it again but just dab it on and off till it dries due to heat and should work dandy
  22. i think there awsome ive got a 30 gb video one and got loadsa trials vids on there that i can watch whilst on the move or at college. i was also abit should i get one or should i not beacause all iheard was they break but lots of the new ones seem fine
  23. hi trying to find some good revision so if some1 could point me in the right direction that wouls be great or would be able to explain enthalpy changes and all the calulations for it and how to distinguish between alkanes and alkenes and cycloalkanes etc thanks
  24. in theory yes in reality no because it wont have enough power to get it up there also it would probably take off as its not designed to go this fast . if you have a powerful engine with the standard gearbox it with not have a larger top speed just get up to top speed quicker. had a big chat about it at work once.
