  1. Gman... any luck getting it off your parents pvr? My attempt at recording it off tapes has resulted in horrible quality!! Not worth the effort.
  2. I have been cleaning mine on the wheel up until now but last night took it off and will be my now preferred method as you can clean it thoroughly. I could never get it bling clean on no matter how much scrubbing. Paraffin works the best as it strips the muck off but if it is off, Sunlight works wonders!!
  3. This would match my road bike
  4. I like big time!!
  5. Okay, so I think I have found the problem but out of interest sake I want to see the opinions of you technoboffins on the hub: On Saturday whilst riding my bike started making an awful sound! A lekker grinding sound which I eventually worked out was coming from the RD. My gears were jumping as well . The noise only happened when I was not peddaling and the chain went slack. Whilst riding a long (800m) and steep downhill I saw that my chain also went slack during these times. So, what do you think is the prob and what caused it. Btw.... I was riding hectically dusty roads on the weekend whilst out exploring if that helps. Okay, I get popcorn now and watch..... Di CPD2009-05-21 00:21:40
  6. Oh help!!! Mark sleepless nights.... Feel sorry for your wife! Have you warned her about this decision yet?
  7. I have started loading my routes up on sportstracker! Really cool to see your routes online. I have made my routes open to anyone so feel free to check them out although they are only 3 thus far. I use my Nokia E71 to track myself. https://sportstracker.nokia.com/nts/workoutdetail/index.do?id=939635 https://sportstracker.nokia.com/nts/workoutdetail/index.do?id=939630 https://sportstracker.nokia.com/nts/workoutdetail/index.do?id=929915
  8. Only 4hrs?? My E71 lasted whole of Argus, and continued until the next day. Btw... what the heck is an xml file? (Sorry mini hijack)
  9. I like the idea of integration. Although I am highly peeved with Sportstracker for boming and loosing some of my best rides this year, the whole 1 that I have uploaded (yesterday's ride) makes me appreciate the value of having something that can do what it does. I am actually looking forward to having my phone with me tomorrow on my rural ride as it is A a safety device that I can track where I was and my family can track me if I get lost.

    Find a map, look at it then leave it in the car and have fun!!
  12. Just imagine how boring the hub would be without all the arb chit chat threads like this one!
  13. You forgot sunglasses! Oh and helmet
  14. So what? change the cassette and chain? as easy and cheap as that?
  15. Hypothetical idea: I may want to change to 9 speed sometime on my mtb. These are the parts I have on my groupset, what do I need to change, and what can I still use? LX Crank (44-32-22)<?: PREFIX = O /> LX F. Derailleur XT R. Derailleur (normal rise) LX cassettes (11-32) Saint Sti disk shifters
