  1. Sorry - no For Sale/Wanted thread in New Members Chat. Best bet is to browse the For Sale forum and contact sellers by their email addresses. Jon
  2. Steve - do you know what the offset of these is compared to a normal chainring on burns? I'd be interested to run one, especially if it means I can run a short BB due to the ring being further towards the crank arm Jon
  3. Having multiple active accounts is frowned on, as people tend to have conversations with themselves. Ditching and old account is normally fine, although you do get the odd person trying to sign up after being banned (Has anyone heard from Petey recently?) Jon
  4. Just another quick note to help you out... I don't validate anyone who doesn't know that a sentence starts with a capital letter and ends with a full stop. Maybe I'm old fashioned like that, but that's how I am
  5. Old posts get deleted every so often so inactive members may end up with 0 posts. The system works at the moment, but people are impatient. Mods aren't paid to do this Some names have a certain stigma attached to them for trouble they may have caused when they first signed up. If you think your posts are good and you've been here a while, try signing up under a new name to see if you get validated. Jon

  7. Please don't launch personal attacks on each other or I'll be forced to warn and/or suspend you. Bike looks pretty lush Jon
  8. I've had problems in the past running AM Classic hubs with Hope discs - I ended up spacing the disk out from the hub with some washers (make sure they're the same thickness so you don't distort the disc) Jon
  9. It looks suspiciously like you're having a conversation with yourself. Quite spamming the forum or I'll suspend both accounts. Jon
  10. Auto Reply The topic starter has been validated. Moving topic from New Members Chat to Trials Chat.
  11. If you'd read them, you'd see that the same person has bumped every old thread with helicoils.
  12. Didn't spot this one... Sorry. The happiness lasted longer than the angry one.
  13. No cross posting - try spending sometime on spelling, punctuation and grammar! Jon
  14. I've tidied the flaming from this thread. I wont be doing it again. Jon
  15. We had problems with Telewest - kept getting cut off from the Internet. Restarting the boxes would bring the connection back, but sometimes it would drop again within 5 minutes. After phoning them several times they told me my wireless router was broken which I replaced and that didn't fix the problem. When I next talked to them I refused to hang the phone up until they could tell me what the problem was. After going through it all, the guy checked the contention ratio and it turned out that there are too many people in our street/area who are subscribed to the service. He couldn't do anything else for us, but we wrote a letter to Telewest. They gave is an automated response and we didn't hear anything again until I phoned and asked what was happening about it. They said the complaint had been closed off as it was complete! Ended up getting them to pay for our new wireless router (£40) as well as getting £9 a month off for the next year. The connection still drops, but they are going to dig up the road and sort the problem out! Jon

  17. This is looking far too much like a for sale thread.
  18. Auto-Reply Please read the guidelines regarding bumping topics. No more than one bump per 24 hours. Thanks.
  19. Don't use white spirit - it'll leave a slippery residue on the rim! Jon
  20. No need to cross post between NMC and other areas of the forum.

  23. Got a Sensor on Tuesday and fitted it in the evening, but the car still wouldn't start Phoned round a lot of people to see if anyone knew about the ECU as I was getting no spark. Then we noticed the engine mount had cracked in half Towed the car to Oulton Park on Wednesday morning with a new engine mount as well as having booked it in with Mikeanics from Congleton as he originally mapped the engine, went to all the driver briefings and towed it to Congleton. An hour later it was on the rollers pulling 180.9bhp Drove back to Oulton Park in time for the afternoon session and managed about 18 laps before the fuel rail split and sprayed petrol all over the engine. I was lucky it didn't catch fire. Cheers for your help people. Jon
