  1. The whole point of using small allen key heads, is that you cant apply much torque to the bolt. If you round the bolt off, you have tried to apply too much torque - thats how it works.
  2. Thats what I have found too :( You have to jump more on gaps, rather than pedalling the bike across. In some way, I guess that could be considered better technique... I found a slightly harder gear ratio than normal helped (went from 20:17 to 18:15), but then it makes uphill run ups a bit more tricky... Swings and roundabouts! For rocks though, the High BB is great.
  3. Eh... thats stupid! We had one! Might have been with the girl's school as well though... can't remember... /random post :P Looking back at it, I enjoyed school :deej:
  4. Haha! Get down your local bolt supplier and get them to match up your old ones. Total cost: approx 10p.
  5. The Echo hubs come with chromed steel bolts.

    Riding your girlfriend (or boyfriend!) in bed while looking at trials-forum? Had to be said!

    Got My Avid.

    Clever (but very cheeky, and possibly illegal) sales tactics that... The Magura discs are never sold for £140, especially as OEM versions! Cheap hydraulic disc for a mod bike... Shimano Deore (Y) Edit: Search on Google for 'open' and 'closed' braking systems. If you *must* have the adjustment like an HS33, it'll have to be a Hope C2 or XC4 (or various other very poor brakes)
  9. http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=9046 should be of use.

    A bit like animals. They learn from experience. Cat shits on your carpet, rub its' nose in it. It'll soon learn to stop. And I bet some of these people have around the same amount of intelligence as a cat with shit on its nose.
  14. Yummy. Is the lockring loose?
  15. :turned: Thats not a film! [/sarcasm] I concur...
  16. Is it loose? What did you spray at/into it?
  17. :turned: :) Interesting theory Mr Dave!
  18. Just realised something... dunno how many Loughborough people know Mike Caine... (Lecturer here) but: :turned: Scary! (Well, I think so anyway) Mikes hair is a bit bigger now too.
  19. Its a lot easier to hit your foot on the way up like that. Im crap at sidehopping, haven't measured one for ages. Done about 36" before I think.
  20. http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/forum/index....51664&hl=python Python, yeah. It was Colly who brought it up, not me! :) :turned:
  21. Dan Hardman... it was a different point on the frame... so no, he wasn't really that right! Plus, this is a manufacturing defect, not a design defect - and hence, should be replaced on warranty.
