i seriously doubt they will exchange for a pro2t, they will exchange or repair for the model which you curently have................. ash

its funny you should mention that, because it was me who asked for a one of bolt up six speed hub from my mate at hope who is the designer..............then he made one and they are going into production.......... ash

this topic has got out of hand..............theres a hell of a lot of bullshit thats not needed in this topic, for gods sake its a hub..........if people dont want to use the hub then they wont, at the end of the day its every one to there own. i will always stick with hope due to the fact that i test for them......... most people who got things to test would take up the offer, i didnt see the need for chris king to be brought into this topic though, its gone far from the point of informing people that a new hub will soon be on the market, and another thing, the only people who can comment on the performance of this hub is the people who tested it and have used one, on this forum i believe this to be me waynio matt holdsworth and now stan shaw, dur to tarty recieving some prototypes the only things the others can comment on is looks of the hub, because you have to ride the hub to know what it feels like but to be honest some of you people just like to cause arguments over nothing............ chill ash

contact koxx uk, or airevalley cycles, i know airevalley had one in last time i was there ash

i was shocked with that rock also, first time round i failed miserably, then on the second lap, i was the first to get through the full section............ that has to be thanks to tim stedman advising me when going up that first rock, i think phil also so it aswell? hard but challenging ash

listen pal, i probably know a lot more about hubs and design of hubs than you do............ ive used a hell of a lot of hubs that are on the market, infact every hope model going......... ive never had a problem with any of them.......ive used kings....... and profiles ..these are not stronger than the new hope hub.......it has been proven when we did the torque testing on a king hub against the pro 2 t and pro 2 model hubs........ the design in my oppinion, being an enginner myself and having helped hope develop this new hub, is stronger than a king design, the springs are amazingly stiff, if you dont believe me, just ask waynio , ali c or matt holdsworth what they all think of the pro 2............. the ratchet design will be proven over time....... i know which i would rather use......... and which has better customer service hope all the way ash

any questions about this hub ask me............i use them........ along with wayne and matt holdsworth for me it is the best hub i have ever used on the rear............pick up is nice and strong with no skipping yet ash good things come to those who wait

aye that section 10 was awesome although i nearly broke my leg in it......................... that ruled when you jumped in the water dave................ then ali c sprayed you with orange lol yer the girl riding the monty was lois morgan ash

the thread is m5 in brake mounts...............drill it out 6.2mm and wack in a m6 helicoil..... easy enough and problem sorted, plus the helicoil will be stronger ash

i really enjoyed today, i struggled but to be honset i enjoyed it.......... ive damaged my shoulder but that will repair............... the mud was a bit annoying for me, but id like to say thankyou to the organisers and section setters/ observers. the difficulty for me was not bad, it was the mud.............. but what was going on in section 9? the inter was harder than the expert at the beginning................ oh well.......... i gave it sum pasty and made it second lap probably due to stedman shouting at the back of me.......... cheers ash top trial

new echo cnc cranks and bottom bracket unbelievable quality and quite good price ash

surly from tarty bikes..............£20 ash

he's never ussually on.........only the odd occasion, just put the stem on at the trial to save all this fuss ash

tool

hudson im mates with dave ................. you'll see him at the trial at the weekend ash

hudson is a tool............ rik the guy whos called bbt is called colin mallet

who are you? ash

quality of the vid is not very good...............but some familiar riding spots who the hell is burnley bike trials? ash

im not bothered if its fcuking cnc'd or not its still a knurl, i know a knurl when i see one....... im an engineer for gods sake........ i work with cnc and manual machines everyday, a knurl can be produced by cnc but the original way was by a conventional lathe.........nowadays you could simply program the cnc machine to cut the profile of a knurl onto a rim........... ash

i think some of us local lads are making the trip over.......... will be good if theres a lot out ash

thats a knurl.............. which is done on a lathe with the use of a knurling tool........ if that aint a knurl then i will eat that rim ash

the crank thread is 1.37 " x 24 TPI, so really you want to machine a hole around 35mm for the bore of the bash ash

im pretty sure that a bash ring and a freewheel/ fixed sprocket will fit on an echo cnc crank arm ash

i say hope no questions asked.................. if set up correctly, then they give trouble free running for ages ash

yet another morecambe topic.wonderful ash
