  1. Amazing!!! Thanks for that huge commitment to perfection in street trials Mark & Ali! Ali and his team are so far ahead from the rest of the world, can't believe that level...
  2. Interesting video. Some crazy tricks! In my opinion it is not the right way to combine street trials into a competition live event. Street trials is made for videos and riding outside combined with your creativity. However we need the support of live audience to make the sport bigger, so from that point of view this event is cool! Danny Mac's Drop and Roll Show is another way of showing the sport to people. All in all it's cool to see more and more people trying to develope this sport in any direction....

    Drop n Roll Tour

    Happy to see our video made it to here. For more pics have a look here: http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/topic/187964-velofruhling-baden-2014/ The video was made for many reasons other then showing the riders abilities. Thanks again to all the riders & people involved, it was an amazing weekend.
  4. We managed to have a great Trials Weekend from the 30.5.-1.6.14. So happy we had the Drop and Roll Team as a premiere at the Velofruehling Baden, Switzerland. As one of the main organizers I am happy to present you some of the pictures and videos. It was an amazing weekend together with Duncan, Danny, Fabio and the rest of the team. Thanks again to everybody. Enjoy! Video (repost here) Photos Drop and Roll https://plus.google.com/photos/+ChristianRubi/albums/6021162821822440177 Photos of the Saturday event of some "show" comp.

    My 2nd film edit together with Leslie Tobler, all done during a saturday afternoon in the town of Baden, Switzerland. Definitely need to improve the shaky camera ride next time. Comments welcome! Enjoy
  7. Cool to hear about all your experiences. I still run the hope tech setup in front with a shimano slx disc (sm-rt56) which has a constant super good pressure point and grip. In the rear I tried to get used to the shimano saint M820 setup. As mentioned by other members I do also have some thoughts about the lever which seems very flexible, the pads tend to move quite a bit and even generate some noise. I did bleed the whole system and played around with the pistons until I got things to work right. Unfortunately the pressure point and lever travel still tend to change week after week. At the rear I was still using the hope 180mm disc. I change now to the shimano xt 180mm ice tech rotors. Hoping to get a constant brake feel...even when I had a good pressure point with the saint the bite was not strong enough to stop the rear wheel from slipping from time to time. I mesured the two discs but found no differences in its thickness, sorry the picture quality isn't perfect... Trying your advice Mark, thanks for sharing :wink2: Hope XT Ice tech (6bolt)
  8. Half day ride with friends in Zurich. Nothing big...
  9. What a bad Christmas present....hope to see you back soon! Can't wait for new Videos : ) https://twitter.com/Inspiredbikes/status/413241757011550208
  10. Thank you all for your help! I'm def. gonna try the XT Rotors, I just noticed that the Hope Rotors are really easy to bend. Broke one like that recently. I read somewhere that they are actually thinner, not sure if that is true though. I might mesure them when I have both off. @shercofray, have you had any pressure point movements when first using the M820? @Ali, I feel really honored to get a reply from you!!! LiamW. used the right words, "high profile people" +1 ; ) @Leon, will def. try your trick with the wheel out. Thanks so much!
  11. I was wondering why Danny, Ali, Tartybikes &&& all use/sell the M810? Is there any advantage over the M820 Lever? Which Rotor would you suggest? Danny uses en SLX 6 bolt I believe on some pics, on others the XTR. Ali I believe you use the XTR ones mostly? Last but not least I got an M820 Saint using the standard Hope 180mm discs of my Fourplay Team but I am unable to get the pressure point far enough away from my handlebar. It feels like I have to pull the Lever to the grip till I get the back wheel 100% locked up!? Any ideas how to change that?
  12. What a beauty that riding, edit, music just everything! Was wondering if you had any troubles filming there??? I was riding in Huntington Beach couple of weeks ago and had to stop after they reminded me of a 350 US Dollar fine for riding on that spot beside the pear
  13. Great show overall, liked Danny's part a lot since they didn't use slow-mo & thousands of show effects which kind of put the sport in background... Of course those effects looked also great but i prefer less. Danny's stuff definitely seemed higher then in movies before with even more risk, bit worried about him getting injured... hope he can cope well with the public pressure not to go much bigger then that. Don't wanna see him in a wheelchair!
  14. 2nd reason to get back on my old school Trial bike......1. reason was April 2009.......just wanna thank Danny & his team for making such a great work without them I would never have started to ride my Trial bike again after 10 years... And I also wanna thank Redbull for supporting all kind of cool guys....(and girls ; )) keep up the good work I can't get enough of it!
  15. Hello Community This is my first post and hope not a repost. Was following the videos forum for quite a while now and therefore also can't wait to see this new project. So enough talking: http://www.redbull.co.uk/cs/Satellite/en_UK/Event/021242908456696 Go to bed for 6 more nights and here we go....
