  1. Yeh the forks are a bit longer than "standard". I think its cos the Club Roost XP frame they go with is made for suspension forks. And I used to have it
  2. Hehe, thanks for the comments people. Proper seat will be purchased when some cash comes in. Probably an SLR thingy. And my 'Roost forks are just over 3 years old, and still going strong! Im well happy with them!
  3. Finally got a few new pics of my Planet X Mk 2. Apparently one of the most old school rides out there at the mo. Its short, with a long seatube, no front disc and it has a seat! But it rides like a dream. Any comments people???
  4. I think one of the main problems is, that the people who wanna spend alot of money on a trials bike mostly wanna build up their own spec bike! So I suppose shops dont see the points in having loads of £1000+ bikes on display if someone would only buy it with different forks/bars/cranks ect ect. I think for the bestest stuff you're stuck with the online shops! Allthough someone like Tartybikes will actually talk to you and give you good customer service and stuff, unlike most online shops that dont give a poop! Tarq
  5. Basically one that fits you and is comfy? Who gives a rats ass if its makes your head look big, helmets make most people look stupid but who cares if its saving your brain! So, yeah the Xen is nice, I couldnt quite afford it when I got my new helmet last month, I went for the Giro Havoc. Bit cheaper, still looks good and is amazingly comfy for me! Tarq
  6. I think the answer is there really.
  7. Club Roost trials forks. Slightly longer than your average fork, and I have had mine just over 3 years now - indestructible if they withstand my riding/abuse that long!! They look good too!!
  8. I use something called Cool Edit Pro. Basically you open the song in the program, then save file as, and you can choose the quality. A phone wont need a stupidly high quality to sound good, so choose a lower qual, there fore saving it as a smaller file! Hope it helps.
  9. Still not working (nearly a year now = bum) But next Tuesday I start a part time course on Photoshop at Salisbury College - w00t! Apart from that nothing
  10. I believe the newest evolution of Pwned is Porned Well, it is down here!

    All Sorted Now

    Click START. Right click on MY COMPUTER, then PROPERTIES. It will tell you your processor and RAM. Open My Computer and right click your hard drive(s) and click properties to find out their size!
  12. Are your crank tapers knackered (rounded off) at all? As that can attribute to creaking. Only other thing I can think of is your pedals, if the bearings are gone or they are loose or something. As they can creak too.
  13. Yeh thats the one I paid for 6 copies in advance, but only ever got 3. Never even a letter to say he was stopping making them. I had to hear it from other people and read it on here! It was an ok magazine, lots of spelling mistakes though, and the news wasnt really news by the time it came out either, but wth.

    If you cant sort it, use a block of wood and a hammer like some people do, lmao. Its not too difficult (apparently, I have never done it) but you just literally stick a bit of wood over the cups and hammer the hell out of it till its in the frame! Tarq
  15. Ride is today! Just bumping to the top! Tarq
  16. This has been asked many times, and I believe the Fresh Products usually get more votes than the others? Personally I have tried Fresh and RB levers, and Fresh is easily alot nicer. IMO anyways. Tarq
  17. I had that problem like a week ago. Bled it with water and now it works fine. Should have seen how much air was in there!!! And I believe the Julie is auto adjusting for pad wear? (Please correct someone if thats wrong) Anyways, bleed it, and you shouldnt have any more trouble. Tarq
  18. I gave a lapdance to a goat because Im NOT homosexual
  19. What do you call a bus load of pikeys driving off a cliff? A start.....
  20. I use a DX32 with Kool-Stops, but mine is nice and quiet - yay! Also, I have noticed if you're running a grind it really doesnt matter what pads you use, they mostly grip the same anyways. Its only when your grind starts to wear down that pads make a difference. But stick with Kool-Stops people, you all seem to have forgotten how good they are! Oh, and does noise really make that much of a difference in the end? Apart from annoying people? Tarq
  21. You might wanna fix the green car with red reflections Apart from that, nicely done.

  23. Haha, no worries. Didnt expect a great reception to be honest, just thought what the hell! Oh, and Im starting a part time Photoshop course in just under 2 weeks, maybe I will learn something new!!! Tarq
