    Getting ones money back from a member...

    Soooo, I had an agreement with Ns_Sharpy to give him money for his Norco 250. It has been past a couple of months and he has not even replying to me anymore. Short of getting someone in Melbourne to visit him and have "words" with him, what can I do with this idiot? Police aren't into stuff...

    20mm axles

    Having just attempted to do up my 20mm axle on 2007 Boxxer World Cups, and discovering that the thread is near all stripped, I am in need of a new axle! My problem is that I don't want to get a Maxle 360 (with the QR lever) because, frankly, the levers give me the shits. I prefer to carry a...

    DaBomb hubs

    Gday all, well, my Axiom hub has destroyed iteslf this week for some reason, though I have only had the bike for a year and two months, so the hub should be fine, but what happened is the ratchets for the engaging mechanism have worn so very quickly, therefore it does not engage anymore. I'm...

    Partly-pimped 2006 Shore 3?

    Well here's my current pride and joy. My first "proper" bike as well. Bought last Christmas and gradually upgraded from there. Taken the front derailleur off also, makes things easier. Yes, it's a tank of a bike, but it rides really well. Next upgrade will be new forks though I'm thinking...
