Well i'm halfway through building up my 24" rig and its time to start thinking of rim + tyre combos. I'm really keen on the tioda dh rims, they're not too heavy either. Was just wondering if they're any good. i know there is the option of the rhyno lites aswell. Whats everyone running tyre wise. For street use mainly. I'm looking at tioga comp x's or dmr moto diggers. Any help/ recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

FFS.. People just aren't honest anymore. The frame in question (petes supposed coust) Is infact the coust copys you could pick up off ebay for around £250 including a set of forks. It is NOT a coustellier.. The history of said frame. I believe it was bought by dave trials on here, who we all know changed frames more often than his underwear at one point. lol. Prawn then swapped a D521 on a hope XC and an avid cable disk for this frame with Dave. He then decided he was going to get a T-rex so set off to grind the disk mount off, fill the rather sizeable dents up and respray the frame in vermillion orange (only a few months ago did prawn realised that he was a prune and forgot to grind off the hose guide for the rear disk , REAL cousts ddon'thave a hose guide halfway down the rear triangle, again reinforcing the fact that pete is again talking out of his backside). After this Eddie ( trials mama ) bought the frame of prawn for £70 ( a fair price cosidering its condition ) and rode it for a few months. He then swapped it for a t-rex frame with a friend of Gary. Gary then rode this for a few more months, hitting the downtube and cracking all the filler adding a few general dings etc and ended up selling the frame to Pete Wright... Pete Wright, current owner of a FAKE coustellier. Once the frame was in pete's possesion he had it professionally shot blasted and powdercoated by a local company. There is no doubt that it was a very good job and looks very classy in this colour but the downtube still has the HORRIBLE dents which would seriously deter me. So thats it people. The frame pete is trying to sell as a coustellier is a copy available cheaply from Ebay of all places. I.E. a FAKE. The Frame is 5th hand, Dented to fook and has seen a fair old amount of action in the downtube area. The diskmount has been ground off again confirming it is a fake. This frame/bike is NOT worth the price pete is asking for it atall. Frame prices do NOT go up as they get older, more battered and change owners pete. Anyway rant over, now you guys have a valuable insight into the life of this frame ill leave you to make up your mind Again i am amazed at the things that pete comes up with. Including his supposed FAMILY. Who only seem to crop up over the internet.

Hi guys I'm looking for an external hard drive for my pc. First off what are they like? I will be saving all my movies, pics and general stuff on it and having programmes on my internal. Can i watch movies that i have saved on it properly or is there any delay? Do you really notice the difference between internal or external? Which is better, Firewire or usb 2?? I have around £80 budget. Any help would be much appreciated
