i had an interlock for a while because it seemed strong, very adjustable and wrapped nicely round my cogs (plus it looked cool :P ) but to cut a long story short.... I got a nice tin though :P - its actually ended up being really useful - fits perfectly in an inside pocket in my bag and a good size to keep my tool in :P oh shadow conspiracy and redesigning the chain though, to cope with the stretching! this does look very much like a half link kool chain though and kools are pretty stretchy themselves. mike

yeah i have well known bands (except for one) ac/dc, motley crue, the ataries , run dmc, queen, afi and danzig, who are all well known :P they haven't said anything to me about it! from the blurb on the front page, they seem to allow anything too :P mike

Seriously looking forward to this video, stan has an awesome smooth, controlled style thats great to watch! on the video hosting front http://tv.isg.si/site/ is awesome - ftp upload, 333mb space, no size/bandwidth limit and you can apply for more space :P shit just looked at the link too and roadtrip video is on the first page ... hahaha

your meant to service a king? :P :P

I posted the vid on an american forum too and well fooking mint!! \/ \/ \/ :P it made it to the main news page :P www.alwaysmad.com

taking everything into account: mod: profile stock: king but i really don't see how people have so many problems with there king hubs, best thing you can do with a king is put them on an xc bike for a month!! mike

guy with bottle: you ready for bottle number 2 hobbsie: f**king hell - one bottle was tight enough!! guy in background sitting down: aye aye captain bucky: i wonder if i can nick owt from this car for me van! waynio: kenny :P

thats unlucky dude :P hope it heals quickly - within a week of getting my leeson i had fallen off twice and bruise my back and couldn't ride properly for a couple of weeks :P

me, tim, james, kenny, matt and rich (kevs bro) went to see him yeterday and the only thing he has actually broken is a rib (which he was very proud of), he is also suffering from heavy bruising on his back (his bag protected him) and he cut his knee up badly (it was hanging off or something) and as tim said it needed surgury and a skin graft! he was in good spirits though and was telling us about bed baths (kenny tried to get this guy to go in and say it was time for his bed bath, but the grumpy b*****d was having none of it :P ) and his awesome bed (i want one in my room), he has sky tv too! though he hates the food and wanted a kebab. :P the vinco is f**ked and bent and twist, forks are buggered and so are the wheels are pringled, will get someone to post photos. he is thinking its between the new vinco, gu or bt 6.0 - the vinco probs has the edge! mike

what pedals are they mark? my easton flat boys are about dead on my leeson and they look like they have nice big platforms (Y) mike

if this frame did exsist then no, because if a frame existing that was great for everything then it would be awesome fun, because you could ride any style and any terrain and it would do it well and that wouldn't get boring!

we reckon it was around 20 foot

i totally agree :huh: - a lot of how a bike rides is to with bar/stem anyhow - and long bike can be bunnyhop (rossi can bunny his 1100 BT 6.0 higher than me)! but my bike is an easier bike to bunnyhop! But at the same time certain frame designs, lend themselves to certain types of riding, that can't be denied! i agree with tomm, trials bikes will get more and more specialised depending on the riding you wanna do too! mike

dave it isnt real, it is a very clever illusion - we are meant to think 'how the f**k?' thats what good, thats why I like watching it, but i know it wasn't real! the bum was probably an actor... its like when david copperfield made the orientient express (i think, it was was something big and outside) disappeared - the whole audience and crew was in on it!

space out a front qr skewer with a mech hanger, because most of the threads where buggered on it. added a bit of a steerer tube on top of my forks, so my stem clamps better fitted various random mech hanger to my bike that didn't fit. bodged various headsets together taken a spoke outta my front wheel to go into my back wheel, because i snapped one - the front wheel still had 35 spokes in in 9 months later :huh: fixed punctures with gaffa tape, superglue and various random stuff

yeah dude 74 degree rocks , i like tighter headangles , makes the bike feel more agressive on two wheel, there are definate advantages to slacker ones though!

well essentially the t-rex is just a strong and cheap coustellier and they are cerainly more onzas than coustellier frames about! and if you look at mods - the onza t-pro is probably out selling the the koxx levelboss mod too. mike

i watched a feature length epidsode of star trek:voyager does that count?

as it has been said before - its purely down to personnal preference and how you ride! I prefer short bikes because they are flicky and easy to move around, but at the same time - i know if i moved to a longer bike i would find certain moves easy. you can ride short/long bike for street/natural, but just ride it. i regurlary ride my 24" on natural and most people consider it a 'street' bike. mike

man i wanna be roadtrippin again :blink: its a cover of a don henley song too

watched the rock last night, enjoyed it was funny :blink: :- may watch dodgeball now - 'cram it up your cram hole..' mike

how do you mean conned out on flights off america - any particular sites i should avoid! i will check expedia thanks for the help

thanks for all the comments peeps :- it was a great week ;) next year will be even better :) its some dude called danny that kenny knows, he lives in scotland - rides a global! he could do the sickest nose manuals, stupidly long backwards manuals too. rides by himself most of the time too... :blink:

rightio i am off to L.A in a few weeks and need to find the cheapest flight i can. basically i have never been on a plane before (except to barcelona) well not a long flight and have no idea where to get cheap flights from! so help me please :blink: thanking you mike

yes, but the geometry of the fork is the same - put them on a bike and the front axle will be in the same place (Y)
