  10. Right, finaly my new vid is done, nothing overly special but it should surfice. Vid is 71mb, 6:40minutes and is on tv.isg so nice download speeds Tracks are: Gorillaz (forgotten name) RJD2 De Lalouette Bigman vid 4 Well i hope you enjoy, i am reasonably happy with it..... Adam PS: I forgot to add, this vid is filmed in widescreen, and the only player which seems to open it in widescreen is media player, if it is opened in VLC etc you will need to alter the aspect ratio to 16:9 in the video menu.

  17. Congratulations Steve and Tracy. I hope everything works out well now that you have moved into a new House. Adam
  18. not quite sure how they make the front end any higher, The forks are 15-20mm lower than the BT forks. Thus i have put a 7.5mm spacer under my stem Adam
  19. Since my BT forks died on tuesday it was necessary to purchase some new forks, decided to go for a set of new controls (or pures as it says in echobike.com) got them today and i could not belive how thick the steer is but that makes me a happy Bigman Also got a few more things to sort out my rear vee, the older style SD7 levers i had were ausing my fingers to ache (flat blade shape) so i ordered a set of the new style ones, and they feel SOOOO much better, also got myself some onza vee adapters (not released on there own yet ) and i have to say that i am very impresed with them, and got an XTR booster off ebay, this setup has given me the lowest vee setup i have seen on a 4bolt frame, which i am very happy with as it keeps everything compact and tidy. Well here are the pics: Spec: Simtra ST1 frame Echo Control/Pure forks Echo 115mm 10deg rise stem Onza 30 inch alu bars FSA headset Front hope XC built to a white (sprayed) DX32 with 25mm holes and a 2.35 ST single ply highroller Rear CK discotech built to a white koxx rim with a hope SS kit ad 17t cog and 2.5 ST highroller Front 203mm avid BB7 with random cable and new style SD7 levers Rear avid ultimate with onza vee adapters, XTR booster, Linear slick cable, new style SD7 lever and heatcink backings with coust rubber Middleburn RS7 cranks with custom 20t bash and onza 20t stainless steel chainring Home made spring steel tensioner Hope you guys like, i LOVE it! Adam
  20. Not my desktop as i am on my mate Hugh's laptop, but this is his background, tis his V8 highbrid landrover which he uses for trials, although in this pic i think he is about to get stuck Adam
  21. When are we going to be expecting te vee adapters, ie the ones which come on the t-pros? I have a set i got off a guy putting mags on his bike, and i can safely say i recon they will be VERY popular, i am extremly happy with mine Adam
  22. Just done the same myself, but i got them from CRC £18 posted Yeh, i would say clear of parrallel push brakes, there is more things to go wrong, stick with dewhore/sd7 if on a budget and Ultimates if u can afford them! Adam

    His Echo got stolen..... Cool vid dude, deffinatly improved! Adam
  24. I totaly disagree with your last statement! my rear vee has MUCH more hold than any of my maguras have. And that was with a dewhore brake, decent cable and pads are the most important things with a vee. I would recomend an SD7 brake, if you can afford it i would go for an ultimate, i got mine the other day and they are SOOOO good! Adam
  25. If this ride is still happening i may have to try and come up again, LOVED shipley last weekend! Adam
