My sponsers for this years season 06/07 are so far

Fresh Products, LB Productions, Battery Cycle Works, EBC, Hope, Chris King, Get Noticed Productions, XS Stimulant Drink, Tartybikes, Wright Pads/Rim Jam

Cool, my brother in law rides with them and seems to have a great time. He used to work in the shop too.

I'll ask him about your frame next time I see him, hope it goes well
 
Wow, must be a nice steady supply of parts if your uncles own Hope. Can I get a bit of advice from you then. I use a Shimano XT rear hub at the minute for general mucking around, light freeride. I hate the engagement on the hubs. Are the trials pro II ok for this, or am I better off with a Chris King. Or alternatively, something by Sun or DT.

Umm depends really. I only order what i want when i need and if needs be go help out for a few days, or pay for it as to taking freebes.

If your freeridding and your having problems with an Shimano XT i'd say Hope. Pro II std hub, no need for the trials unless your rididng trials. Plus the trials is single speed or 6spd only.

If you did want chris king i'd say you'd have to do the following but aint cheaop

Iso hub
Stainless steel drive shell
HD axle
Fun bolts

Thats alone i'd say your look near £400+

My singles speed and King Kig is £400 dead on!

SUn and DT i've killed, i've torn out the star flange of the DT which are really pretty, and the SUN we duno what i did but you can pedal all you like and does nothing. It went back on warranty and i got my money back, that was on my V10P the sun, heheh.

I went training yesterday with a mate on my old steed. I was beating my personals bests by 1'' wich means my training in the gym and diet has helped as well a bit of rest. Was even rididng natrual which i hate yesterday all day. was ging to ride today but it's wetter than an outter on heat out there
 
I look at that and think snap, 2 mini sus with some dampers, looks like there is no give if it goes wrong, it looks like a frame for a god, get it wrong and its going to the metal works.
