    Welded Acs

    Looking at the one from selectbikes now so we can order it online, how do you actually put on the freewheel as it says on selectbikes that it is ground down Confusing... Nathan
  2. Nice pics dude, nice bike too! Someone please teach me how to hop up like that... I'm crap at pedal ups and I do them all the time Nathan

    Welded Acs

    My mate is after a welded lockring freewheel and he was wondering if the welded ACS on tartybikes has just a welded lockring or whether the actual pawls are welded... Basically is it a normal acs but welded tight? He couldn't get through to the guys at tartybikes earlier, so I thought I'd ask you guys Cheers in advance, Nathan
  4. I think in some respects its a good idea, letting people have a copy frame for cheaper, BUT I think it really has gone too far with the Zhi stuff - F**king ridiculous in my opinion Nathan...
  5. My freehub is clunking every couple of turns, I'm thinking maybe a bearing has fallen out... Can anyone help? Nathan
  6. I feel the only problemo with chains is the pins coming loose, all you need is a chain with very tight linkages... Nathan
  7. Quite funny for us, but aren't you a bit pissed off... Get a Zoo or Echo frame, much harder to snap Nathan
  8. If you bend it back be very aware that it could do it again AT ANY TIME! Get a new one ASAP, if I were you I wouldn't ride any big lines with it, for your safety Nathan
  9. Nice idea dude, but I really don't think there's much point making curved pads for maggies as they're quite small, and I REALLY don't think that magura would give you 50% of their profits, even for five minutes!!! Nathan
  10. Go easy on the guy hes only trying to help lol Nice frame good find Shame I dont ride 24" Nathan
  11. CLS, Tunni, Porter, and Wheeler are great, I think, to be honest, there are already new well known trials personalities... Always cool to watch the old school guys every once in a while though... Got the tricks and stunts dvd a little while ago... Nathan
  12. Bloody nora mark how much time do you have! If I ever decide to get a fixed rear hub and an eno freewheel (rather doubtful) I will look back on this topic... Well done anyway mate - Very well done
  13. The cops won't do anything about it either, they've just repromanded me for knicking some crates, but when my bro nearly got kicked to death by bouncers they didn't give a s**t, and when his bike got nicked they didn't care either Worthless b**tards - The police and the b**tards who nick 'em! A very very very very angry Nathan
  14. I run a D521 up front, but when I had one on the back I had to do a pad bodge to even make the pads touch the rim (on a zoo pitbull 05 frame) so I got an old echo and the problem was soon sorted... Nathan

    Metal Tpa

    How do you replace the tpa in the 05 lever, I'd like to know without trying to find out myself because I break things if I don't know what I'm doing... Cheers, Nathan
  16. Anyone know how well tunni gets on with them or has nobody seen him with his new 06 pitbull yet? Also does anyone know who (if anyone) is replacing CLS in the 20" zoo position for 06? As for the widest rim, you could get a echo 06, as long as they're as good as the old 05 ones, you'll be ok Apparently the try all rims are like cheese, but I can't understand, previously seeing some of the stuff that Benito does on them Nathan...

    Alternatives

    I'm not aware that there are any other type of hydro rim brake available, there have been hydro v's before but apparently they're shocking... If you are loking for alternatives, look at; Magura Louise FR disc Magura Marta disc Shimano XTR V brake Avid Ultimate V brake These can all be found on www.chainreactioncycles.com Hope I've helped Nathan
  18. XTR's are good, and so two are maggies, I have no experience with any different pads with either, but I have ran them both, if I were you I would get an xtr but with an xtr lever Get an xtr especially if your going to have to run evo mounts for a maggie Nathan

    Cranks

    Technique is the way forward, but I have realised that my shorter cranks have slightly affected my performance... Nathan
  20. Cool vid, some good, inventive lines there by both of yiz! Very inspirational
  21. Bloody hell lol, I gotta learn to do that, well I've got a few hours to spare tonight, gives me a chance to play round a bit... Can anyone tell me the best way to learn to use photoshop (without reading the manual ) Cheers, Nathan All gold would look great - Go for it
  22. I was going to make a comment about that waynio, as I had never even heard of Danny Butler until late last year, have only been riding a little while though... Nathan
  23. Never had either, but from reviews and prices, all hope stuff is the dogs... Got a C2 front disc and it isn't to bad... Nathan
  24. Anyone tried drilling it to fit a maggie 4 bolt mount yet? I saw a xtr carbon one which was drilled and it looked fine... Nathan
