Give these a call Rich. I know a few people who have stopped there. Plenty of walking and biking in the area.

Have you checked that the air bricks are not blocked with the insulstion. You should have a connection between the inside and out to allow the air to flow freely.

You can see them fitted in this photo

I had problems connecting my new laptop to Virgin. I just phoned the Tech Help and they talked me through it. Very helpful and got me sorted. If you have a Virgin phone line it free aswell…

Until Mrs C gets back get out on your bike and go for a real long ride Si coz when she gets back and finds out you've been talking about her on a MTB forum shes going to have your balls big style…. 😆

Make sure the new place has some storage for me Si…..

Get a bolt through hub for the new forks then if you need to use it on the QR forks just push in the adaptors to the bolt through wheel and then use it in the QR forks….

20mm bolt through Hopes come with adapters to use with QR's.

Thanks Uplink. Senditnow is the one. Cheers. 😀

Cant fault the internet and the phone but the V+ box I find a pain to use. Its very slow compared the the Sky HD box I used to have. Occasionally the box freezes and takes time to kick into life. Also if your into the interactive footie stuff then its not available on Virgin.
Just be careful of the sales patter as I was told all this was available but it was to late when I had it installed to find that it wasnt….

Cant wait to go back to Sky….

Neil, once you get the initiation ceremonies out of the way we're not that bad,honest…
So when are you moving to Sleepy Hollow then

January….

Wouldn't catch me living in Burntwood. I've heard about the locals….. 😉

Byway Open to All Traffic

No probs, I'm up there on Monday, I'll pick it up.

Hows Alex's replacement coming on…?

M-Part Hose Guides

Thats the kit i've got. About £100 off Ebay.

Shame, ive got some internal bearing pullers that I did mine with but im near Birmingham so no good to you…

jj55 where abouts are you….?

Company I used to drive for looked at them. Mainly because their load capacity of 1600kg was far bigger than the 1150kg of the new Sprinter. Guess the thin panels are the reason for the increased payload…

Nut inserts can really only be used on thin materials as they are used similar to a pop rivet. You drill a hole then fit the nut insert that uve screwed onto the pliers. Pull the pliers tight so you compress the insert. It squashes a bit and grips the thin material. Its really a sheet metal fastener.

I would use a helicoil all the time. Been using them for years to mount brake calipers to aluminium uprights in GT cars. The likes of AP and Brembo dont class them a temporarily……

Right, so it looks like it is just a thread tolerance problem. Personally I would take the frame to the LBS and get them to chase the thread.Then try in the EBB. If its at all tight you can do one of two things. Use emery paper to knock off the top of the threads on the EBB or on the internal threads of the BB. If you do the EBB (which is the one I would do) then you will need a thread file to just to dress up the thread. I have in the past used cutting paste on tight threads and then slowly worked the thread till the cuting paste has done its job.

Psychle do you have access to some vernier calipiers? If you do measure the thread diameter on both sides to see if there is any difference. Threads have a working tolerence, maybe the EBB is close to the upper limit of the tolerance and the BB is at the lower end of the tolerence hence making it a tight fit. I would be looking at the EBB as Im sure that is a CNC cut thread and the BB with be cut by a die. If it is the BB then using a piece of emery paper you maybe able to take off the peak of the thread and that may allow it to fit.

Did you know you can get an internal thread file. If no one will do it then have a go yourself.

They look like this

I agree with Tim. We do a lot of tapping of holes in Ti and never have a problem. After all you are only chasing existing threads.

Look for Reivers 1,2 and 3

pretty much what I'm thinking… any suggestions on someone to do the job?

Kaesae….?

I think if you right click on the photo and then send to email client it gives you 3 or 4 sizes to send your photo

I used this yesterday when I deleted a file on my GPS

Yep as stated, Virgin own the box and will chase you to the ends of the earth to get it back.

We use nitrogen in our race tyres when we did FIA and Brirish GT's. Normal air from a compressor has to high a water content and on a rear Porsche tyre we would see a 20psi increase with temperaratute which when you try and maintain an accuraccy of 0.5psi is a hell of a lot and can destroy the handling of a car. If nitrogen was not available we would use a diving compressor with a drier unit to get the air as dry as possible.

The other area we used nitrogen was in the dampers. With the high increase in temperature of a damper nitrogen would at least give us a smaller increase in pressure change.

As for road car tyres, not for me….

Received mine on Friday. 3 weeks from order so cant complain at that

Alex, brilliant phone. Ask me tomorrow at Coedy and you can have a go with it.

Is this "cheap place" the old man again…?

You can do that with the Dirtwoker. You can extend the pickup inside to fit into a bigger container.

Heres a couple more we've built but a bit quicker than the Integra

Are they DC04? I have a DC02 which is totally original but massive fun.

They're both DC5's

I built this

and this

You could probably class them as kit cars….

You dont really need a base map. As you follow the route as long as the line your plotting stays on top of the recorded one you know your going in the right direction.
