  1. I do a similar method but instead of putting the superglue on the threads i put it on the angled part of the head where it contacts the lever body, always keeps it tight Adam
  2. Na, thats deffinatly not an onza! Probably some dodgy brand...... Adam

    Yes, they are now instock at Tartybikes No, the maladie will not be available as a dual disc due to the fact that the Aurem is a dual disc frame..... Adam
  4. Everything will be going outside when i have the space, we are waiting for the owner of the caravan to come and get it shifted, then everything will be heading outside, as then it will all be layed out so that you can combine everything! I do have to modify the tall one abit to make it abit more stable, i think i will end up sticking another pallet onthe other side, that will add more weight and also another aspect to getting up, as i will set it at an angle. Adam
  5. I won't be heading up today now, got a few bits to do on the farm, then i am gunna ride my home made shizzle in the shed and stay dry Adam
  6. New, better quality pictures of the stuff, along with pics of the new stuff i have built today Picture of all of it.... Blue pallet with legs making it around 20inchs tall.... Blue pallet with side slope, 2ft6 on the low side and 3ft on the high side.... 42inch box, 30inch x 4ft.... L shapped edge pallets with platform in the centre.... Dual sloped thing.... 8 x 4ft 41inch platform, 42inch tall.... Big box, 53inch, with a nice flat front for taps and hooks etc.... Adam
  7. Tarty have 2.5 maxxis highrollers in single ply and super tacky, could be worth a go Adam
  8. everything that has been built is deffinatly solid enough, the wood i have used is pretty beefy though, the legs are made from 4 inch square timber! as it was what i had lying around As fro holding it together, i have used a combination or 4 and 2 inch nailes, seems to work well enough! Adam
  9. The stick-e compound is only 50a though, which is pretty hard when comparing to a maxxis slow reezay at 40a, or the conti which is even softer than that! From what i understand the tyre that Gilles is running has the nevegal tread pattern (I do like the tread patter onf the nevegal) but the compound is alot softer. If I were you I would either stick to a maxxis or continental Adam
  10. In all honesty I do not think there is realy anything that would realy need changing straight away, possibly look into getting a slightly better freewheel, and maybe some different rear brake pads, but other than that the standard spec on those bikes is pretty good Adam
  11. Luke (Moggly/Brown bear) Walder....... James Caan from dragons den...... Adam
  12. I will hopefully still be coming, we shall see..... Adam
  13. Ah, so pictures have been added Was just about to add some myself...... Might try and get abit more building done today, try not to smash my thumb with the hammer like i did yesterday, dman it hurt SOOOO much! Adam
  14. I rode this yesterday,and i have to say it is the nicest mod i have ever ridden, almost felt that i could ride it just like my stock! Adam
  15. Will see what I can do guys Adam
  16. Reece! Gimme a shout whilst you are down in cornwall, padstow is quite far up from me, but i would be quite interested in heading up that way to do abit of exploring maybe You should have my number. Adam
  17. From what I have heard the new echo freewheels are VERY good! So i would say go for the echo, although i have heard that the 108 is quite a stiff freewheel due to all the pawls, where as the 72 (TR) is much more free..... Adam
  18. Like was said, that is not a problem with the pad, just the backing, I have been running these pads for a while now and have never had an issue with snapping backings, and i am a damn good tester of stuff like that...... They realy are not the same compound, they are shite! in my oppinion i would go for either Rock greens (not sure if these are still available) or TNN CRM's as these are the original CRM compound and that was awsome!!
