Found the tasty goodness of Southern Comfort and lemonade last night, whats your drink of choice?
-
They will take cuttings of plants, dip the end in hormone compound and planting it, this will allow roots to grow fom the cutting.

Can't be anywhere near as bad as 3 C/S, took me three calls (first two cut off due to SHIT signal) to cancel my contract, each call lasting approximately half an hour, maybe slightly over. Check your local paper for a phone, a lot of people tend to sell their free upgrades without using them

It's all about the V12's Had a pair on my bmx for aaaaages and they lived through my period of attempting street without loosing too many pins or snapping. Make a foul noise when I spin them though, might be a bit dry on the bearings... I might steal them actually and put them on my stock...
-
The brake isnt really a problem cause I'm on a 26Mhz but was just wanting to know how bad the tyre was gonna fold. Think I'm just gonna run them front and back, keep the spokes tight and get a DX32 if/when the back pringles.

Kool stops are about £5 or £6 a pair and salmons are designed for a chrome rim...

So that's not statutory, just advisory seeing as it's under the same heading as keeping your chain oiled. Sorry son, I'm gonna have to arrest you, that chain is slightly dry therefore not conforming to the bike maintenance section of the Highway Code. Anything you do say... Can't see it happening to be fair EDIT: 45.a cycle helmet which conforms to current regulations appropriate clothes for cycling. Avoid clothes which may get tangled in the chain, or in a wheel or may obscure your lights So they could bust you for wearing baggy jeans? Shocking...

Shut your noise cletus Please ignore Tom, his mind's been warped ever since he witnessed the street styllzzzzzzzzzzzz

Bought a pair of Mavic 719's off the Bay and only just realised after talking to Tom, how thin they are! Got a 2.5 High roller on the back, coming from DM24's am I going to notice shitloads of fold in the tyres when I spin/pivot? If so there's no point me building them up and I'll have to look for something bigger for the back. Although saying that my back tyres f**ked so could go slightly thinner (2.3 Factory DH). Must say the weight and asthetics are pretty pleasing though! HELP!
-
Anyone ever thought that they might be holding them back because they want them to be right when they release them? I'd rather wait for a product with all the faults ironed out than get one that hasn't been tested fully. If it had been released on time but still having slight problems then they would have been slated for releasing an under-developed hub. Some people...

Kool Stop Salmons are the way forward...

No, INCREASES pad wear and decreases pad LIFE

Just get out when you can. If you'd rather ride than play football then do that but it's not like you can't have more than one past-time, the less often you ride, the more you will appreciate it.

Youth speaks sense, whats the point in spunking all your money on gear and then being skint when something breaks? Put it in an ISA or summat until you need it!

Who's The Sexiest Trials Rider
Street Lee replied to MikeCottTrials's topic in Beginners Trials Chat
I'm definitely the sexiest person sat in this chair... -
Straddle cable from one arm, ROUND the seat tube top the other arm and connect brake cable in front of the seat tube. Kool stop salmons are good for chrome, dunno about plain ally though. www.bikeguide.org are pretty handy to talk to, verging on anorak at times

I'll bet my left knacker that it's the teeth that are too short I fail to believe you have to ride a slipping chain until it "beds in" to the sprocket, just seems slack as f**k for how much money some of these bikes cost. I'm going for one of the cheap singlespeed kit's off ebay for mine as you get 16t and 18t cogs whereas the DMR just comes with 16t. Surly ones are nice but I'm a cheap fanny and cant justify spending £20 on a cog, even though it would be a better fit for my chain (wider teeth).
-
I rode BMX for ages and I'd have thought a mod would have suited me better but I ride a stock (albeit a very short one) and it feels a lot more natural/comfortable than any mod I've rode.

What Is The Worst Thing You Have Ever Done To Your Bike?
Street Lee replied to wez's topic in Beginners Trials Chat
Snapped the piece of shit T-Raptor frame that came on my bike (frame was f**ked, 2nd hand bike) but it's all good cause I've got a Pashley sorted now Never really been too harsh on bikes, definitely not a thrower, cant afford to be! Plus you look a tuppence when you start raging your bike around -
How well does the chain mesh into your freewheel/cog because I've just fitted a 1/8 Kool and it's skipping on the rear due to it not sitting deep enough into the sprocket. Need to get me a proper SS cog
-
Well get Panda or any other decent firewall and it won't let the downloader connect to T3h T1|\|t3r\/\/3B therefore solving your problem. Also the firewall will tell you what programs want to connect, this means you can find the bitch and delete it

It's only illegal if you get caught -
I think everyone needs to stop talking like getting validated is some sort of secret society or something, just because you have been validated doesn't mean you're special PS Who validated me? I wanna know!
-
I've had a kool chain on my bmx from the first month they came out and bar a bit of rust its still running shit hot despite many knocks from copings and concrete
-
I ride some cheapass Roox DH/Riser bars and find them a lot more comfortable than your average trials bar because they dont angle up at the grips and they have a slight bit of backsweep, my wrists love me for using them
