  1. If you want to bulk you need to be doing compounds. Deadlifts/Squats and Bench Press so these little dumbell sets are no good.
  2. Get your self on englishmuscle. None of this bodybuilding.com forum garbage. Ive been weight training 6 years and they have helped me a lot on that forums. Not a big forum but a tight community with lots of help
  3. Thanks bud. It rides nice I just need a frame which works better with 150mm forks and my forks top out quite harshly :/
  4. Nice! Love these 24" echos. Ive been away from trials but ide love to get back in to it. Putting weight on due to weight training though and I don't feel it will suit me anymore
  5. Sorry please can a mod move to bike pictures

  7. Just fitted 9 speed gears Next thing for it is get a frame to suit 150mm forks, new rear brake. Also need to stop the forks I have no topping out so harshly. In need a rod for them
  8. Thanks bud. Im going to see how my LBS got on with it shortly so hopefully hes done it. Im guessing you have put them back together now or ide ask for a photo EDIT: He managed to fix it
  9. Yeah, why you ask bud? It did work before I took it apart by the way. Well it clicked the correct number of times anyway.
  10. Yeah, I realised after that you can just use the cc cap. I could get hold of a cheap shifter tomorrow but will it be worth it? What im thinking is do I waste £15 on a single speed chain (it may be more as if I want it for Friday ile have to go to my LBS) which is a bit more expensive than the internet or get a cheap 9 speed shifter from my LBS which will be the same price ide imagine. Main problem I have is I need it for Friday. So is it worth getting a cheap 9 speed shifter or play it safe and get a single speed chain which I will only use for fridays ride? EDIT: The thing is I dont know if im missing a spring or not in the shifter :/
  11. Oh dear. Looks like ile be trying to get a single speed chain and going SS for this ride on Friday then

    Shifter

    Hello. I got this SRAM X7 shifter this morning and went to replace the cable. Now ive put it back together I can't seem to get it to just click the 8 times it should. When I received it this morning it clicked the correct number of times. It just carried on clicking. I have seen some of the SRAM x9's have another spring on top but I didn't see any spring fly out when I took the shifter apart. Heres a picture: So did that spring fly out or have I not got it wired up correctly? Thanks
  13. Great photos. Liking the one with the bikes lined up. t-shirt tan for the win
  14. Hello. Im looking for the size of the three small mech hanger bolts which attach the mech hanger to the frame. I have some which go through the mech hanger and they are the correct shape (heads) to sit in the mech hanger but when I go to screw them in to the frame they don't screw in. Can anyone confirm the size of the bolts and I can order the correct ones. I have vertical drop outs using a da bomb grenade frame. http://www.hotlines-...x?ModelID=16063 EDIT: Just found out I have two mech hangers and the reason the bolt fits is that one of my mech hangers has been drilled out to allow for bigger bolts. Here is a photo of the other mech hanger which requires smaller bolts in order to fit my frame. The other mech hanger I have has slightly bigger holes due to someone drilling them out. This is my mech hanger that I need the bolts for: Thanks.
  15. Can anyone confirm the size of the bolts to attach a mech hanger to the frame? (3 small bolts)

  16. What size bolts do I need to attach a mech hanger to the frame? Not the one big bolt the three small ones.

      I checked a website that sells mech hangers and had a look through about 5 or 6 3 bolt ones and they all said that size so it should be right. Have a look http://wheelsmfg.com/products/derailleur-hangers/3-fasteners-derailleur-hangers.html

      10mm should be enough for a mech hanger -> frame

  17. Ouchy. I went to pedal kick up and over a wall. For some reason my finger came completely off the lever and my tyre pinged of the wall and through me back so fast. I had to go hospital as I thought I was concussed.
  18. Yeah, I learn't the hard way. By the way the photos aren't of me.
  19. I need to gather the money first really. I have two trials wheels and a hope trials to put on ebay so when ive sold both of these I should have £150 if im lucky Ile pass on that Joe, thanks for the offer anyway
  20. These photos are of Pugpowa and his cousin. I don't ride trials any more but ive taken up a new hobby of photography. I do still ride but more of a mountain bike rider/trails.

  21. Nice, I could put my old single speed kit on it but I have the same chain as you and it bent my chain splitter so I can't put a chain on it :/
  22. How much is to get a frame professionally painted? Any links to any sites that do it? Thanks
  23. Nice one mate. Wish I could of got some shots up at the factory. Do you mind if I upload the ones I got of you?
  24. Ile give that a miss bud. 1. I have red parts 2. I still have a lot of trials stuff to sell before I get £150 and I only wanted to spend £100/£120 really. Just something that can support the current 150mm forks I have and the ones I hope to buy soon
