Sure, let me know the details and ill let you know :)

FYI: I have now been given a provisional budget of £100 for which I have to prove that a Hardtail with front shocks is better and more economical than a £100 full suss that only lasts a few months. Cheers

Now this is just unfair, after all these Tip postings, I went to one of my local ones and all I could find where Kiddie bikes and Trikes! Just plain unfair! Good Find though.

Hey there, Not sure I will be at MM. Got quite a busy year coming up, what with either A levels or scouting events, thanks for the support though. Mr. Fromage: I will speak to the person incharge later this evening and will get back to you. Cheers

Hey there, Ive started to dissolve the tube now. Ive got the bike hanging from the ceiling in my cellar with buckets underneath catching the drips. Its very hard trying to seal all of the wholes so i have duct-taped them over which is slowing them down, its now just a case of re-filtering...

Well. That was an interesting experience. After covering half the place in a mixture of photo developer and drain cleaner, ive decided to go back to the drawing board. How does one go about sealing every whole on the frame? I stripped it down to an extent, plugged the visibly large wholes...

Hey there, Sure anything is of use. Where abouts are you based? G

I thought that. Found some i think. My girlfriend found some drain cleaner and says its lethal. Just checked and yes its the stuff.

Hey guys, This idea may actually work :) That is to say i can do it on a budget. I have infront of me a selection of chemicals Sodium hydrogren Sulphate Sodium carbonate Sodium bicarbonate Sodium Silicate Sodium Thiosulphate Also have table salt and bleach too any ideas which...

Local bike repairers quoted me with £80 to fix it. I declined that due to the fact that I can get a brand new 07 frame for only £50...

Thanks for the reply, PM Sent

The frame is a cro-mo Specialzed, that only cost me £35 second hand. Thought it was a bargain but turns out to have a few quirks. Working on a shoestring aswell so paying someone isnt really possible. Ive got some hacksaws designed for this sorta thing, so I can give it a go. Looks like in...

No, it is so badly stuck whilst trying to free it up, it snapped off.

heres a pic. not the clearest as my camera packed up so its a mobile shot but...

I cant do that because the top of the tube has broken off inside of the frame so there is nothing left to grip :S

Ive tried using the oils and stuff an dont have the tools to cut it out with?

The worst has happened. The top of the post has now snapped off leaving the post in the frame. Any ideas what now or is my frame now useless?

Hey guys, On my bike the previous owner had changed the saddle and seat tube, adjusted it for themselves and left it there. I am a taller guy and therefore need to move the saddle upwards however the seat tube they have used is too big for the frame, any ideas on how I can get it out...

Hey guys, This might sound like I am on the blag here, well, I sorta am. I am soon to be the local mountain bike instructor for our district scouts. Alot of the guys have thier own bikes but some others dont, so basically I was wondering if any of you guys on here had any part that you maybe...

I assume Speccy is Specialized? If so howq much for the saddle and where you based at?
