Nahhhhhhhhhh!! I thought the tarw was pretty damn good! what about snap, crackle and pop?!

Schweet! Rage are one of my fave bands, like em even more now :D

Stung for the first time last week :( one hit me in the neck whilst going downhill and unbeknown to me fell down my jersey, stung right above the belly button. Not sure if it hurt more or less than i expected it to.

I'll keep that in mind Junkyard! thanks very much :D

I think, and correct me if im wrong, its called playing devils advocate ;)

(this activity seems a popular one on this here forum)

Coed y brenin's great, dont let some people put you off. People always go on about how "the trails used to be much better" but there are some absolutely mint rocky sections (especially on the tawr) and if theyve been sanitised then they must have been pretty fookin mental to start with! I have ridden there alot over the last year and enjoy it immensely every time.

Took me about a summer holiday :D i can now wheelie for aaaaaaaaaaaaages. Its fun.

Not a single soul?

high roller 2.35

Ah cool, thanks. That was kind of a factor but the wheels are pretty **** so just wanted to know if i had more options for finding bargains!

I dont have a full sus, but i do have a stiffee ( ;) ) I think its safe to say you can do more on the stiffee. I ride street, dirt jump, downhill and ride all day XC on mine. The enduro will be easier to ride fast on properly rough downhills but thats about it tbh.

Is this the equivalent rudeboy fan club?? ;)

Bliiiimey, Im not unfit but i found W2 hard work!! By no means is it a beginner trail. How could you even suggest it to someone who (by their own admission) is a bit of a noob?

You can get Silver surface carbon fibre, exactly the same as normal carbon fibre but its silver. The only bike related place ive seen it before was the soles of roadie shoes.

Ok, my mistake ;) but W2's only 2k shorter!!

He said he's a noob, probs best not to do the longest and most challenging trail first time eh? Penhydds a great loop.

ahhhhhhhhhhh, now i see it :D Bit of an illusion (the first pic) looks like two bits of metal coming in from the left.

Take shit loads of food.

Ive been involved in passive accidents on my bike, either cars or my own bloomin' friends ploughing into me on their bikes!! I'd quite like a 2CV really, I think it would be great fun :D

Oh, and get this molgrips, I drive a classic mini! im pretty much committing suicide everytime I drive arent I? ;)

As soon as i have enough money available, i'll be getting myself a Nicolai.

I only read it somwhere :( i dont know the answers to such demanding questions.

:D

The dropout is to allow perfect wheel alignment (apparently)

Errrrrr, i was under the impression heat increased the swelling? i guess that could just be in the early stages though.

Depends on how you mean "helping" too ;)

Omgiwantoneinglosspink.

:D

If that fails you might be able to get a steel sleeve fitted, oooooor if youre using square taper cranks you can buy a BB that threads onto itself instead of the frame :D charlie the bike monger sells em.

More pics +1

I just looked at the website and am even more jealous :(

[Quote]that's shocking and gopping in equal measures. [/Quote]

Some people have no taste ;)

That looks **** cool.

I already dislike the film knowing that they burn the burrow down. I think its safe to say im an even bigger anorak than you DickBarton :oops: why change the story??!!?

(I had the same problem with Lord of the Rings)

Depends how old you are mastiles, she's the same age as me :D Im allowed.

Corners and pumpy things.

Obviously these guys in the tour are fit and healthy (fittest and healthiest might be more apt) but is it doing them any long term damage?

Im with TJ on this one. Id be pissed off if i saw a man hit a woman, let alone if the woman was my daughter.

without a doubt, there seems to have been a high proportion of pretty girls ;)

It did seem to be struggling to gain altitude…

Might have had a heavy load on board ;)

Definitely in the wrong forum :oops:

Are the brake mounts faced? mine was a VERY tight until i faced the mounts off.

(Yes, i did buy the hope facing tool)

My sister went to sixth form with her, she seemed nice.

I cant see why it wouldnt work? And you dont have to loosen the BB, i run a Gamut thats bb mounted and you just need to give it a bit of "persuasion" ;) Id like to know if it works because i think mech hanger mounted tensioners look fugly too :D

Royally kicked?! He's still third for christs sake! Not to be sniffed at by any account, merely finishing the tour is an impressive feat.
