  1. the bearings shouldnt fall out of place if the freewheel was tight, and if he still had them 3 thin washers inside to keep them in order... Look in my siggy and learn away (grease first though )
  2. Pad used: Heatsink reds (prototype) Time used: ages Grind? yes, medium rim used: 06 Echo rim (mod) Brake used: 2005 maggy with water bleed Other pads iv used: Plaz, bloxx browns, koolstops, blacks, rimjam reds/blues/greens, heatsink blues, reds (old konigs) heatsink yellows Batch B's and lots more Opinion on working brake: LOTS OF BITE!!! doesnt slip no modulation at all and VERY loud squeek! Reveiw: best pads used in a long time? apart from they were lacking that VERY loud squeek that i love, they were best pads iv used in a while. they held on anything, were still amazing in wet and muddy conditions, and this is with a light grind!, once my grind had worn right down, i done a medium grind, and the VERY loud squeek that i love was there it was an amazing brake, had lots of confidence in them! They have only worn around 1-2mm in around 2-3 months that iv had them They are VERY good pads IMO! But, for some reason, iv resorted back to my bloxx browns (saving the reds for competition use only i guess )
  3. no it wasnt :P I posted that 1 day before the 8th :P
  4. hahahahahahahaha, (at you) That was one of the crappest jokes... EVER lol (sorry) well not really. My internet is running too slow to read the whole thread, so did you get it back in the end then dan?
  5. I would LOVE to try that rim. It looks... so gawd damn sexual!
  6. Bein diffrent from all the football lovers in my school. They all think im gay cause i ride bikes, but once they see me on my bike, they dont call me gay
  7. I love my disk, its f**king mint. It is powerful than most Hope Trials disks
  8. yeah, but how long in toms van? 3 hours? Cant wait to come along, aint been on a big ride for a while (since fort bill and i wasnt actually riding my own bike there, was riding other peoples Lets just hope it doesnt rain. It doesnt fooking wanna!
  9. Plaz on the front with a grind? Yeah good idea. Why dont you try some zoo! pads on the front? I hated having a maggy, cause all the pads were to grippy when going to front wheel gaps And it flew me over the bars ALOT! Disk all the way
  10. Nice little vid there mike! Didnt see any of them sidehop gaps that you were attempting in carlisle though Loving them peg stalls still
  11. Ben doesnt go to bash (UCIIIIII) and its his sig frame, so it doesnt really bother him if it would catch the frame. But im pretty sure that when the tyre n stuff is on, the tyre sits closer to the bash than the frame, so that the wall shouldnt catch the frame I want one, i want one so bad!
  12. Thanks mate I have all your assurance Cant wait for this ride like, gonna be mega!
  13. That was the first prototype, and the new one looks awsome... download bens vid of him riding it at the worlds... its on here WB on a T-pro is 1025 (on mine with X-lite forks) WB on the slinger sig frame is 1045... and rides VERY nice! Its about 3 times more flickable than a python, and defo more flickable that a T-pro
  14. red Lmao This is gonna be awsome if my mam says 100% im aloud to go :D (should be aloud) Gonna be mint Its just the road from carlisle to newcastle that my mam is worried about cause my uncle died on that road and its a VERY bad road
  15. It isnt true. Knowing ben personally, he said that onza ARE going to produce the frame, and hes just on the last protoype before he brings it out. It rides fooking awsome at the min aswell
  16. I think my pc might be under warrenty still, probably just get them to sort it? Saves me from fooking it
  17. I plugged my Ipod into the USB in the front of my pc just before, and my screen went blank, and wouldnt come back on (pc was actually stil running, but the screen wasnt) But i resterted the pc, and it worked again Maybe cause my pc is on nearlly all day, apart from night when i go to bed?

  19. Speedy Yeah i just pull it out, i used to eject it, but it shouldnt really effect it, should it?
  20. Hey people. I have a problem with my pc. When ever i start my webcam, or plug something into my USB port, my pc screen turns off, and the music stops playing, or my PC restarts by itself It doesnt do it ALL the time, but MOST of the time. Iv done a virus check with "symantec anti-virus corporate edition" and it only found 1 virus, and i deleted it using this programe. I also done a Spy-Ware and found 2 spy-wares, and deleted them. But it still happens Can anyone help on what it might be? Its asif the USB uses all the power the PC has to run, just to run the thing iv plugged in
  21. I can only do 38" with the front wheel technique, but iv just recently learnt the 2 wheels one, and i can get 42", so something is helping Try it on lower walls to get the jist of the technique of the move before attemping your highest
  22. I like the 05 maggys ALOT more than the 04's. The 04's are really old and look crap, you need to be up-to-date The 05 lever feel SOOOO much better than the 04 levers (talking abour the CNC'd 04 ones aswell) The 05's should really have moe power in the piston in the lever, cause the lever it pulling un towards the bars (more pressure) whilst the 04's were at a weird angle, and never pulled in as good IMO DONT QUOTE ME ON THIS I know im right.
  23. get a hack saw, and cut a little slot along the head of the bolt (like a straigh headed screw driver) and then screw it out... never failed with me
