strelly Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 Its all about the jubilee clamps!It makes the cheapest bikes look even cheaper! Only cost me 50p from my local chandlery (thats a boat shop for all land lubbers out there). Anyone else had any good uses for these little beauties?

N.Wood Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 Make sure you don't land on it too hard, it or may force the seat post down further than its meant to and crack your seat tube.Good luck with it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strelly Posted April 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 I would be more worried about my arse then the seat tube to be honest!!its only a cheap build at the mo.. got most of the parts for 31 quid (see eBay)I apologize in advance for the dodgy hose... im waiting on an olive!in total it cost be around 80 quid. not bad to learn on.Im also to open to (creative) criticism on the build, its still early days!cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paolo Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 Hahahaha that's hilarious, my friends new used frame just arrived here and guess how the seat is holding ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobinJI Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 Take a grinder to that bash dude, it could be about half the size. Other than that, damn good bike for 80 quid, just get saving for a different frame sometime as those things can be a bit of a bugger to learn on, they feel really heavy for trials. Can get an alright riding, but battered looking frame on here pretty damn cheep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aener Posted April 11, 2007 Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 A friend once snapped the bit of the brake that clamps it to the bars, so he took a really long jubilee clip, and wrapped it round the entire lever body + bars.Worked ace. Couldn't even tell... though the TPA couldn't move as, it too, was clamped over Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomm Posted April 11, 2007 Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 That's pretty cool, it's probably lighter than a normal clamp too, hehe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
