the reality is, everything f**ks up when it gets busy, because it cant handle it. web orders also suck balls.... and why is it that all customers think for some strange reason we keep every bike out back built up? also i had this toss pot coming in today trying to get a refund on his bike, because the front tyre hadnt been bedded into the rim properly so was bobbing up and down about 2mm ..... he hadnt even inflated it and he thought he knew what he was on about! some people need shooting!

yeah the evolve system sucks uber balls. especially on saturday when the main server apparantly totally shit itself.... couldnt do anything but tell customers to come back another time... didnt go down very well as you can imagine. i love halfords.........

needless to say, chewing gum did not work to hold my monty together. god that was only about 8 months ago! seems like a couple of years at least! Edit: 2nd song 1st video... Mr Scruff - Get a move on

Hello mate. There many people riding around that area? i'm from near middlesbrough, but my brother lives in kirby-le-soken not to far from you, so next time i'm in the area i may take my bike along with me and maybes go for a ride? seen some good lines on walton sea front. any good there? maybes add me to msn or something its in my profile. cheers Alan

yes i did put an old kmc kool on my bike to keep me riding after i snapped the last one... and its far from rusty. should mods really be insulting people? I wanted something fatter than the standard kool because every time i go for a drop gap the last thing to go through my head before going for it is "please don't snap on me" from past experience... and so i'd like something that looks like i can trust it more, if that makes sense.

thanks very much. should have a go of one of them i think:) thanks

I already knew of the khe collapse chain, i was after the larger kmc chain. That would be my 2nd choice if i cant find the one i am looking for. Thanks

As the title says.... Couple of riders i know are using these massive kmc chains, kmc fat or something, looks like the kmc freestyle chain on alansbmx, but even more beefy than that, just wondering if anyone knows where to get these? Or something similar, like maybe a moped chain if one of them will fit, i have no idea, just sick of snapping chains and wanting something that i know i will never snap. Thanks, Alan

Obviously has no clue about the bike. Its not the sorta bike someone who don't have a clue buys...

like the idea of that bmx hub, got the extra bit on it to protect the spokes from smith grinds and stalls and stuff quite cool! and you wouldn't be able to lace a hub in radial pattern if you're gonna use a disk it will just twist it all round wouldnt it?

Lol, Asked him for a FULL spec on the bike... he then replied to me with Definately suspicious EDIT: if its a T-rex, they Definately don't come with and XT front brake, and if its a coust, can you get full builds of them?

haha yeah that's me cheers, i did ask him on msn but he dissappeared.

just asked the seller to put a full spec on the page

What is the BB axle on it? is it a 118? or smaller? I've always run 3pc, but its been with curtis for a couple months and since then ive sold a different bike with the 3pc on it, so I'm gonna chuck some Middleburns on it. all help appreciated Alan

don't think an axle would be covered... i snapped my hub shell on my old xc a couple of years ago and hope sent me back a brand new one before the end of the week, no questions asked. so worth a try.

look on the bright side... if your hanger does snap you could tape it back together for the rest of the ride

had trailblades on mine. they were ace length just a tad front heavy

thanks very much that helped a lot. made my mind up cheers

as it says up there... and also do you have to use a 64bit operating system when you have a 64bit processor? cheers

looks ace. i was thinking of getting one of them frames. what do you mean when you say the disk feels wrong? i have a monty ti now with mono trials and they did take a bit of getting used to but they are the best brakes ive ever had. way more powerful than maggies. looks very nice anyways. EDIT: question was answered while i was posting....LOL

seconded sections look pretty good. the 1st one looks like it would be fun all day!

holy f**k:| i did that but not quite as bad to an old hope xc rang up hope the next day and sent it off. they sent me a brand new one back like 3 days later no questions asked hope are a mint company! even though their hubs snap

me and a few others are still going going in the car so the trains wont affect us. and we dont care about getting wet be there 11-half 11 ish:) alan x

ahh yes my old vinco. got it back sunday for anyone who may have thought i never got it back. it was only frame and bb i got back:( no king headset or rear wheel or anything:( but ah well. i got it back. stolen for over a year and all of a sudden police raid a house! lucky. i suppose. more on topic. that echo is lushhhh and the vinco is gay. hah joke its alright
