  1. Same style as ACS... except its an opposite thread, specific to cranks (rather than using it on a hub), so it keeps itself tight :blink:
  2. - 6 pawls - 30 tooth ratchet - Pawls offset into threes, giving 60 engagement points - Fully user serviceable, in fact user servicing encouraged (very easy to do - I had one apart and back together in the office within a few minutes) - Loose ball bearing design like the ACS claws - All parts available seperately - Price estimated £50 inc. 2 year materials/workmanship guarantee (if you break an individual part, you get it replaced free - but you have to fit it yourself) Still work in progress - as you know, Onza now dont release things til theyre happy with them :blink: I think thats all...
  3. Haha, nice. I'll splurge later, off to post office now...
  4. Correct. If you resized the 5mp picture to 1mp size, its resolution would be MUCH better, and therefore better quality.
  5. Well yes, but the same can be said about the 1085 Pitbull - very similar. Especially since the Levelboss has a 1080 wheelbase. Also remember you dont stand on the rear axle and grip your front hub with your hands - the contact points on your bike are the handlebars (head tube) and pedals (BB). This is a much better measurement/indicator of how a frame will ride.
  6. Lol, it censors out the swear word :blink:"
  7. They claim that, but i'd advise checking some XC and maybe DH forums before buying a kit... US ones too, since the NoTubes kit isnt that popular over here.
  8. Strong, light, cheap... pick two :blink:"
  9. https://www.notubes.com/support_detailed.ph...a25c7408cc54c16 You cannot use CO2 inflation :blink:
  10. They'll be the M960 then - the M952s are a totally different design :blink:
  11. Present for your missus Matt :) Anyway... this may be of use: https://www.notubes.com/support_detailed.ph...a25c7408cc54c16
  12. Yep, great for making a mould of your nob too (Y) I would guess rim strips are nothing special, since its a home-made affair... normal plastic rim tape + some glue + sealing tape?
  13. Correct. Coefficient of friction = 0.02. Ever used it in an HS33 though? It doesnt work. Water > everything else.
  14. Nah, thats just Koxx extending their frame without telling anyone :turned: The Zoo 1085 is a bit longer on the front, since the chainstays are 10mm shorter. What does this mean? You'll be able to ride it perfectly fine, with a small amount of adjustment, especially since youre 6ft2. Edit: Straight forks dont take anything off the wheelbase due to them being straight - they'll still have the same crown-dropout offset. However, being shorter, they naturally shorten the wheelbase a tad (like 2mm). Why choose your bike around its wheelbase anyway? You dont ride with your feet on the rear axle, and you hands gripping the front hub...!
  15. Echo Pure... good frame... avatar is giving me an epileptic (cant spell) fit though :turned: 7/10
  16. Nice and cheap :turned: Can get a UN53 for about £12.
  17. Not on Hopes though (Dan/Rich) - it knackers the pads. Cool clean water, short bursts of gentle braking, with the occasional long stop to get it warm. Will take a while to do.
  18. Both those frames use the same dropouts (Y) And surely street places higher loads on a brake? Doesnt matter either way - Dave, you frame will break soon (Y)
  19. http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/forum/index....adset+%2Bremove http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/forum/index....hl=headset++fit (Y)
  20. That makes 2 lazy tarts (Y) Nice one (Y) Ads
  21. Steel one? http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/forum/index....showtopic=41299 (Y) Got an alloy one too, if thats of use...
  22. You're meant to use the Hope Headset Press Adaptors - check http://www.hopetech.com for deails. I have a funny feeling you'll just bodge it anyway though (Y) Ads
  23. I usually get about 250 miles out of £20, thats motorway and town driving... which comes out to about 46mpg at the current prices :(
  24. Haha, could just let the picture do the talking? :("
