Davetrials

Morning kids, Now that 90% of us can’t look at a trials bike without hurting our lower backs I figured I might have some joy shifting my gravel bike on here. it’s a 2023 Whyte Friston with a full GRX 810 group-set upgrade that n a size 54cm. those not in the gravel know how the Friston sort of falls in to a mountain bikers second bike category, so wide riser bars, dropper seatpost 1x drive chain, it’s bloody good fun, but I’m due an upgrade for reference I’m 5,11 to get an idea of sizing. £1300 bones, whip me a message on instagram @davetrials as I don’t tend to check here very often.

How the f**king hell did you spot that

Took the bike he's on for a spin in the woods (thanks work) after watching this, tried to tackle a tree, absolutely no idea how he does it. I consider my self pretty nifty on a bike, but throwing around that 26kg bike is f**king difficult.

Just got one through at work, bloody hell it feels nice. slap that on to one of the new Santa Cruz Alu reserve rims with a lifetime guarantee and your set.

Someone messaged me asking for this, figured you guys would like it, I've got a lot so I may as well take requests.

Ripping the shit out of this thing, absolutely loving it

Blind by Korn just came on my head phones and I replayed the entire Danny holroyd video on his red pace in my head.

In other news.. would anyone be interested in a mid life crisis bike.

Update, new bike, broken back

Maybe happy isn’t the right word, but I love the fact that British TGS hasn’t progressed that much and Damon just hopped on a bike again and is blowing every rider from the last ten years out the water* *minus jack

We've got plenty of time, we basically threw most things away when we left our last house, fools. Also painting sucks.

@forteh Raise.

f**k me moving house is expensive.

I'm IN!

annnnd its broken down in to bits in a box

few more photos before I likely strip it down and look for another frame, turns out removable drop outs are not up to the task.

I'm assuming you were cotrials? Think i've got most of your colorado videos dude, i can send them over, or upload them if your happy for me too?

will Starlink work out cheaper?

First time i can think of a big brand knocking out a trials bike in a long time, can only be good for the sport! £2849 https://www.canyon.com/en-gb/mountain-bikes/dirt-jump-bikes/stitched/stitched-cfr-trial/stitched-cfr-trial-fabio-wibmer/3211.html

When its £6.80 a pint, there is no more drinking games. just sit quietly and enjoy your expensive liquid.

I remember when this came out, me and the guys started the enormous download and went riding for a day whilst it did its thing. this was the first time i'd ever seen a "feature" length trials video, the riding was so far past what we were doing in the UK at the time. And as it turns out that enormous file which took a day to download was actually. 59mb, god bless modern internet.

Easily one of the most stylish riders back in the day, no idea how many of the ES4's he must have broke

Mother found my old stash of CD's when i used to download every video i came across so after a very long day i now have 1000+ videos going back to 2002. Slowly uploading some to youtube, let me know if you have any requests This was a brilliant video when it came out, i'm not sure if Andy T is still about.

Do you count the time afterwards whilst spellcheck figures out what the hell I typed? here sa l8ittle look in to what it has to deal with

Just got blocked from META business for typing too quickly. How the f**king hell can facebook not handle my speed of typing, and why would it jump straight to a temporary ban. f**k you meta.
