  1. It's your decision. Not ours. Only you knows what feels more comfortable, for you. Just keep riding the two, and see what you get on better with.
  2. Just curious, if you move the cursor to the edge of one screen, does it appear in the other screen?

    Which Dropout?

    Mtb spacing, horizontal dropouts.
  4. Is it a different phone you're using? - Or did you get the other one back? If not, you sure it's compatible with o2? As It might be locked to a certain network.. Have a look about on Google for sites that give you the unlock codes.
  5. To be honest, i'd rather trials was kept as a 'small sport'. I like the idea of making it bigger, and showing that we're not all druggiesd and vandals.. But if it does get huge, more kids will get into it, and they could be the sort we don't want. Then we'll just get hated again/even more. It's like BMX, it must've been small at one point, with all sound riders etc. Now you see all kind of little skally kids riding them about. I kinda for and against this...
  6. When I had some Onza caged pedals (they're all the same) The cages would come loose all the time, around the holes for the bolts would crack, threads would strip. Even after making sure they were tight all the time, they'd loosen off in less than 5mins. And the cages snap. I'm on my 3rd set of V8's. I know they're not the best in the world, but they're cheap enough for me. My current ones have a lasted a fair few months, never had to service them. Quite a few missing pins. No cracks as of yet. Not exactly a reccomendation, as I wont be buying any more... But they're the only pedals i've had.
  7. Did you ever read this when you registered?
  8. You could just tell them why there's no seat?

    Join in if you want to read this... This is what the forum's like without rules. EDIT: ahh..all the text went pink?
  10. Bound to be one unlucky chap trying to get home from work through that dancing crowd.
  11. My T-Pro came with one of these. Felt alright, nothing worth creaming over. £25. Does the job.
  12. Maybe that's what they usually wear?
  13. Phew, i'm still the only person with a blue Zona Zip.

    Msn Virus

    My mate tried sending that to me. I laughed at him for being stupid enough to download it, and open it. As soon as I saw wha t was asking to be saved, I cancelled. He's now sending the link about on purpose to annoy people.
  15. The is no right or wrong side. It's all about which side feels more comfortable. I'm left foot forward, and sidehop to the left. Other left footers seem to go to right. If it works for Neil Tunnicliffe, it'll work for you.

    V8

    Soon enough, when the Mod's and Admin's read this, they will find out your IP address and match it up to (i guess) you're 'proper' account, and suspend both of them.
  17. Sounds like they'll snap pretty soon. I'd advise getting some new bars, justto be on the safe side...
  18. If you get any Monty brake spray dripping over onto the flat bit of the rim, then you'll have s white stain left, that's hard to get off. Does the job though I guess, i'd rather have a good grind, or some tar.
  19. Yeah, I've rode MK many a time. Few others do aswell. Some of the locals around here, Buckingham lot do. Bessell does sometimes aswell. Organise a ride after Christmas when you've got your bikes sorted, and i'll get some people out.
  20. Very helpful... Ok, how much have you got to spend? Do you want to run front freewheel? - Fixed hubs, Zoo, Onza, Echo etc. Or have a rear freehub? - New Zoo, Echo ones etc, Profile, Chris King. Fixed hubs range from £15 (T-Pro- shit) to £75. If i was you, i'd go for the T-Master Hub. £30, sealed bearings. Does the job. If you want a freehub, and losts of money I'd go for the Profile, if you have enough. Bit of a biased opinion, as I have one. But it's never badly skipped on me, only between engagements when riding on flat ground. I haven't even serviced it, taken it apart, anything! and it's been fine. Not to sure on the Zoo! ones etc, they're all the same, just have different labels on them.
  21. I've seen a few people make themselves steel hangers, seem a bit more solid than the normal Alu' ones.. Also Onza Mech Saver things? - http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?id=311 I think they stop the mech from bending when you bash it?

    Unique Bikes

    You have a new message. Good find.
  23. Depends what V it is though. Something like what you get on some Apollo is no comparison to a Magura. But a well set up, Avid Ultimate will probably piss all over a Magura... I say their about the same, with the right pads and setup.
  24. I got one of those rotors with my BB7. Probably the same as before, with an '07 label. Quite a few companies do that...
  25. The only difference between th two, is the BB rise. Echo being 15mm higher than the PR. At a guess, i'd say the PR would be nicer, as the higher BB on the Echo, will make it feel even shorter? But I like long mods. Also, the Monty has the rear disc option, whereas the Echo, with very similar geometry, doesn't. And the Monty's cheaper.
