Because i feel so strongly about areholes like Tony Blair and Gordon Brown throwing young lads to the lions…….and for what?

AndyP…..you know full well my friend wasn't conscripted

but he chose to join up rather than a life of crime or being stuck in a dead end job, maybe get a young girl pregnant and live of benefits

later on in his school life my mate went a but daft and got into a bit of bother and i pressume thats the reason he joined up to sort himself out and give himself opportunities and come out a better person

Ive never voted BNP and never thought i would untill Nick Griffin said he would pull our troops out of Afgan

i lost an old mate from school there

so i'm affraid to say i feel so strongly about our troop being killed over there

i hate to say it but…..he'd get my vote

Shimano,my XT's are great____ they don't look great___ but they just keep working

had problems with hope like lazy pistons, leaky pistons

my mate even cooked a brand new set of 08 m4s on the first descent

TF tuned and your looking at a couple of days

give them a ring

i just thought may aswell get spares incase i fall off and break anything

and i'd like a couple of batteries , i also use my bike lights for dog walking and i take them when i go camping so a few batteries are handy

get it push tuned

do you know which are the cables?

i'm not very technical

i can make a battery holder at work so its just a case of finding the correct batteries and conectors

can you not just buy the cables and batterys from dealextreme?

aagghhh too big my last one was small

is this not the same problem as the old fox vanillas used too have

on them there was a heat shrink tube hlf way down to stop this

and occasionally it would slip down and cause a clunk that sounded like you forks were going to collapse

what size?

i need small

thats some accolade

my horst link 5 spot was fantastic i had it 3 years and only sold it because i fancied trying VPP so got an intense 5.5 which was good

but i find myself craving a 5 spot again

can't afford a DW at the mo so i may go ironhorse to try the DW or just get an old 5 spot i know i'll like it

I hated mine, got really bad brake jack, bottom bracket was way too low and a 5" headtube on a 16" bike was just madness

oh i made a right balls of mine

did'nt write a speech and my god i wish i had

i'd say a turner 5 spot apart from greasing mine which takes a minute, you never need touch it

Hello, lawmanmx

i'm from Hindley

used to do Billange woods pretty regular but hav'nt been in a while

could'nt of said it any better myself

although i do like rivi

saw prince phil in wigan

orange 5, my god did i get brake jack on long or steep decents it was like being buckaroo’d

i had the same problem runing pikes on my small intense 5.5

i fitted a cane creek S3+5 and machined a stem stacker and lock tighted it in to give me the requered clearance

and dark side

don’t do it, you’ll regeret it

i swaped mine last year after 3 years but went for something compltely differant, an intense 5.5 EVP

i lke it but the 5 spot is my favourite bike by far

can’t get white industries in 118

tried phil wood there is’nt any in the country according to tim at sideways

ah royce cheers fellas

any more out there?

i’m running middleburn RS8’s

having run raceface deus for a couple of years countless external bottom brackets and sets of bearings….NO THANKYOU

ive just gone back to internal bottom brackets but want a light bottom bracket

my old 5 spot sold it last year absolutly loved it

my point is how much better or stable was the world after the fall of nazi germany with mass uprising of communism

why look as far as the japanese

Stalin killed more of his own people than Hitler killed jews

and he was on our side!!

ladies, please

you’ll all realise soon enough that an italian frame with campag groupo is the only way to go, end of.

Giant, Specialized and Trek don’t make road bikes

you’ve got to go De Rosa, Colnago, pinarello, to get a real feel for it

ive had all the fancy hubs and nothing can touch a hope hub for reliability

you can look at a good couple of years without touching it no matter how, what or were you ride

oh it was cold and frosty this morning, went out on my road bike

then as soon as the sun came out it was roasting

don’t think so as its only the drive side the catches and the depth of the axle shaft is the same on both drive and non drive side

if thats what you mean trevorb?

cheers fella’s

i thought it was me doing something wrong or maybe missing a spacer

i’ll go and buy a 118mm bottom bracket then i suppose

so why would this be?

every website i went on said i needed a 73 x 113 bottom bracket

sorted just orderd on

many thanks for all your help fellas

thought of that but theres non in stock anywere

i’m avin a nightmare
