Excuse my thickness, but do the amounts have to be accurately measured or is it a bit of this and a dash of that? What I’m getting at is that I can get ammonia/water mix due to me working on refrigeration systems, but it’s hit and miss as to what strength the mix would be. Plus I can get neat glycol too and I think there is a jar of glycerine in the cupboard. Interesting this thread, just need to find some latex now.

Has anyone used duct tape as rim strip before?

Pound land……

…. and before you ask it was on the 50% sale shelf. ;)

I get charged £5, would do it myself but I like to give a little back to my LBS.

emarold did you not try them direct?

Here you go flamejob, it gives you an idea how everything fit together.

OCB it’s a cost thing really, I would like to use some flows or crests but can’t afford them plus my hubs have 36 holes so that’s why I’m going to use them.

Thanks, wasn’t too sure if you had to be spot on in length.

Bump for the evening crowd.

Mines filled two prams. ;)

jonnyrobertson YGM, I missed the @ off was that the correct?

Think if you used a cassette made of cheese it would still dig in. Just persevere it wil come off, think I used a hammer last time to help things along, stay strong you will get there in the end. Once you have the cassette off just clean it up with a file or buy a steel one.

Have you tried letting the air out, push o ring hard up against seal then pump air back in and take a measurement?

Weeds! Also put a cover on the whirligig, do you have no decency?
Just leave the wheels as they are, I don’t see the point in another colour but black?

Can’t you just fit a normal washer?

Will do, sorry about the delay I’ve only just seen the last post. Will get photo on here tomorrow.

They can be a pain in the arse to get tyres on but they will fit, you just need to give them hands a good work out ;) What works for some doesn’t work for others. As said make sure the bead in in the center and just work the tyre on the rim, get them thumbs pumpin!

Jonnyrobertson can I have it, will pay postage?

I’m sure they have a diggers engine noise as a ring tone?

Cherry picker or silts come to mind, plus what if the batteries run out?

Can you tell hope that I do use a torque wrench and that my slx still cuts into the hub :roll: . So every now and then I, somehow, mange to get them off the hub and give it a file. I have two steel ones waiting in the wings and will fit them when the aluminium ones give up the ghost.

Can you order me a set of forks please seeing as your in the ordering mood. ;)

Is that true of the reba rl modle too?

This should help…

Who did you use MrTall over in the states to sort your frame out?

I’m looking at getting one too, but im hoping someone around the north west has a demo to try out?

If your throwing that light away coz it’s pink I’ll have it ;)

They cover loss of earnings and payout if you die. The quote is for gold cover, class c employment and is £159 for the year. It’s to give the wife piece of mind if anything happens.

Dunno, but we’ve heard you’ve got a tiny chipolata.

It’s filled two prams. ;)

Did she have a decent set of bangers?

I’ve used a monkey bone on mine instead of the speed bone, it’s a lot neater.

You will probably need to type it in as links don’t seem to work from iPhone, well from mine anyway.

+1 mikewsmith, they just need to sort out reliability and servicing issues.

Think the Ragley blue pig MK2 should take a 30.9 post?

I’ve thought about changing the bushes myself. I haven’t because I’m a s**t house but got some advice.
To remove the bushes I was told to use a washer that has been filed down so that it fits through the bush and then you should be able to flip it so it catches the outer edge of the bush, then use some threaded bar to pull the bush out. Before you have a go remember to measure how deep they are in the fork leg.
I also got told that they have to be sized for each fork, not too sure about this?
To fit bush I imagine that you just tap them home.
If you do manage to fit new ones can you post up a pictorial.

Thought dinoshark was a far superior film. IMHO

Thought this was going to be a cooking question? :|

Not used them but I too have been having a mooch on the web site, now I’m thinking who would carry out service and are parts available?

Buy a trout liberator and vaporize him. 8)

Interested just hope I can afford one.
