Basically there shit.

Dry!

Bloody hell thats light!

yeah mine are welded to the frame, I might cut them of.
I had the XC03, the lightest one bar the arrow with easton tubing. But I cracked two of the frames, probably due to my rough riding style and them being light weight XC frames. Cant fault the service though, cracked one got a replacement, cracked another got the steel one as a replacement and was told we wont replace if you crack another because its not a manufacture problem which seemed reasonable.

Edit:

How much does yours weigh?
Looks light. Mines about 34lb haha!

yes I can lose some of the chain length, I was just waiting for the cog and spacers. Speak of the devil postman just delivered it to me!
The tensioner is a Shimano tourney rear mech modified greatly to a tensioner by myself.

Surely that stem needs planning permission ?

Because its so short?

and Thanks

Yes they are, I love it. Cheap but works really well. Might put some Reba Race forks on it next year.

Is it affecting performance? My seat-posts are scratched to death. Its fine, I wouldn’t worry about it. Let it scratch.

You could, but I think you would have to make the printer available through the web. I cant remember how you do it, my dad normally does it as our CCTV e.t.c is viewable through the web with a password obviously.

If thats what you mean, but if thats not what you mean then I’m thinking just click add printer then connected to another computer on group I think it says then find it.

Im going to say, WTB Rocket V Comp.

I wondered where my post was, damn you hill that I live on.

ok thanks.

Also have Tektros and apart from making a terrible noise they are fine.

Its better not to pull the front in the snow anyway, cos it generally causes front wheel to loose traction and you inevitably, fall off.

My Tektro IO’s are fine in the snow. Makes an annoying noise sometimes, generally if I haven’t touched my brakes for a few minutes. Never lost power or been difficult to pull.

danny macaskill?

[/url]

that transition? with that helmet?

looks like you may have a knackered table, unless its proper wood then sand it down and re-coat with varnish?

better idea, avoid the argument, buy a truing stand and do the bloody thing yourself.

Aye – because that always happens

It did, that’s the point. I actually double checked it to be sure I was deleting the right thing.
doesn’t get away from the fact there site information is all to cock, cos the live chat times are wrong clearly because there not on-line and it says if the chat aint working click email us, which isn’t there either!

3rd level here.

good deal?

16t and 18t for 13 quid? Only thing is there’s no smaller spacers so I’m guessing the spacers would be the right ones so the chain line is straight?

Right thanks lads, going to try riding about in just one gear tonight.
Then im going to buy the cog and spacers using a spare not brand new chain first, so if I dont like it I can always go back geared with my other chain and cassette and not have wasted too much money. But I might also leave my derailluer on and use it as a tensioner before i go completely singe speed with proper tensioner.So I dont have to put my cables and shifters back on if I dont like it.

a tablet pc with many less funtions and a basic 2 colour screen anyone?

right thanks, See epicyclo said get a proper single speed chain rather than run the geared stuff, but your saying run a 8 speed chain, which is what I have so I’ll probably do the 8 speed chain method.
This chain is a Renolds, just found out. its 0.13 of an inch, where as 1/8th is 0.125.

Many posts at once, should have really checked all this and put it in one post sorry. I’ve measured this chain and basically it cant exist by any chain standards at all, so it must be a 1/8th chain just 1/8th chains aren’t exactly made to that size or something.According to ANSI standards, the chain should be twice the width it is. So its got to be for a bike.

here

any chance I could use one of them? only one problem that my chain I have here is about 3.5mm in roller width, but 1/8 is 3.175mm. so mine is too thick so it wouldn’t fit?

ok?

something for me to check tomorrow.

i’ll measure it, which am I right in saying should be 1/2″?

could I try putting my bike into the said gear, I think its 18t and 15t, and see which I feel best in, but if it feels right in 18t then a 16t should be about right yes? because if I remove the derailleurs and that the resistance is less?

ah yes I see, good point.

my mates running a standard deore ring on his jump/4x bike, and with a half link chain and that doesn’t come off. but then again its a single speed chain so it doesn’t flex side to side.

oh yes, just remembered, we have a wiperman chain in the garage, I dont think its specifically made for bikes, but the sizing is the same as a single speed chain but its for some type of machine, could i use that?

ah right ok, i will do so if i can.

a normal chainring is ok, but if i was buying one i’d buy a steel one.

mine is a steel deore one.

and right ok, thanks for the links. I wont quite have that much money though.

although its only got 9 speed shifters. There special and when hes in 2nd or 3rd in the front it magically adjusts when hes in lower gears and higher gears so he can get 1st and 10th on the back.

I like how the seller has put

Cash only- NO Paypal

outside transactions on Ebay are not safe and aren’t covered by them. So you buy it of him in a park in the middle of nowhere and on the journey home the front of the bike falls of. now your buggered.

ah you see, its 9 10 speed, but the 10th gear can only be used in 2nd and 3rd on the front, giving you, 29 speed 😉

seems built up quite AM like too, apart from the forks.
been recently powder coated, probably to cover up the cracks from having such big forks.

Quando.

I was working in a metal fabricators at the time. The news came on the radio and I just heard cheering all across the building.

and it will probably be very similar once Cameron leaves.

“Neighbours are **** but can be quite helpful” 😛

look guys, how are they going to sell these stupid things to the idiots who are stupid enough to buy them now?
All they have to do is Google it and read this thread.
Company profits – down.

tool set?

you can buy them in packs of 36 from CRC and as far as I worked out there the cheapest.
