Robin M S/c Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 Nice idea for a thread. I'll be keeping a good eye here that's for sure! I've been beavering away on ideas for a while and now am finally in a place to start developing them. Here are three problems that I'm working on: Frames SnapBashguards damage obstaclesThe current rim brake mounting system.. isn't perfect This could be a nice thread to spur on a lot of innovation. Post up things that annoy you/you don't want as well as solutions you've come up with! You mention brake mounting. I'd like a way of removing the wheel from a maggie setup without having to let the tyre down and also the pads go clear so they don't get covered in mud when the tyre goes past them. (and I don't want the poor quick release mechanism that magure have already when using V mounting posts) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onza1 Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 I'd like onza to make a 19" wheel for the rip, the bike would be much better with one. A bashguard kit for stock bikes and not just ones that will fit new stock I mean for old stocks aswell. And lastly a hand book about everything to do with trials as i still don't know a lot 12 months on Any one who make any of these products will make me a happy man but if you don't pay me for my ideas I will find you I will cut your jacobs off lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali C Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 2 piece external bearing trials specific cranks (Though I know of one company looking into that). silent but good freewheels/freehubs more vee brake specific frames plazmatic style textured rim surface (if you are new..look it up) a tubeless system for trials wheels/tyres more frames that can take seats but still have up-to-date geo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Post up things that annoy you/you don't want as well as solutions you've come up with! That was exactly the point so people like yourself with the means to could produce solutions. It seems to have been lost though. I only put why i wanted a 22t bashring to justify the want but the whole lightweight obsession thread has come back. I personally couldn't give a toss about weight,i know i could get burns and that its a stock specific request. I just want the option to run what i like and the idea of the thread was to be more of a resource for those in the know to find issues to fix,not debate about why i should run this that or the other. Its basically a suggestions box for trials components! Just read more threads and people are now using properly!

Scott Gibbs Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 plazmatic style textured rim surface (if you are new..look it up) Were'nt they similar to the old mavic D521 ceramics? Also mark whats this inspired/trialtech 22t like then? Care to share a little more info please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Dunstan Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 Also, a frame with thermochromic paint. That would look insane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross McArthur Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 plazmatic style textured rim surface (if you are new..look it up) That just made me think of a brake pad material all the way round the rim with a ground metal brake pad!

Matt Vandart Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 stronger chains, or some sort of system the does away with the pin system. If you can work that one out, forget about bikes and start raking in the cash. I'd prefer something like the built in bash on the Inpulse bikes or maybe something along the lines of the new Koxx Sky bash but on a stock. +1 2 piece external bearing trials specific cranks (Though I know of one company looking into that). silent but good freewheels/freehubs more vee brake specific frames plazmatic style textured rim surface (if you are new..look it up) a tubeless system for trials wheels/tyres more frames that can take seats but still have up-to-date geo +1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirt jumper jake Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 If you can work that one out, forget about bikes and start raking in the cash. Hahaha its vertually impossible unless you use a belt, which would be useless for trials Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miles Mallinson Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 I was thinking a while ago that you could have a 4 bolt adaptor for a normal granny ring for a threaded crank. I drew this just to see what it would look like. Proberly a weight issue there. http://www.pinkbike.com/photo/5625039/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casualjoe Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 Hahaha its vertually impossible unless you use a belt, which would be useless for trials You could use string. It would take a lot of work for not much change but I'd really like to try out a modern 25" trials bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Proberly a weight issue there. http://www.pinkbike.com/photo/5625039/ I'd like to see a similar idea but with an intergrated bashring to fit 3 piece bmx cranks. I think Leeson and Pashley use to make something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Gibbs Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 Indeed they did. Edd tongue always used 1 on a set of profile cranks. I believe it was milled from 1 single lump of billet kinda like the tnn 18t Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miles Mallinson Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 It would be alot cheaper than using DXR's all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

murph82 Posted December 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2010 Hi guys This might seem a little unnecessary but if you've posted discussion points about weights, set ups etc rather than what you want and why would you mind deleting them please? Its just that way the likes of phatmike wont have to rrawl through a lot of stuff that isn't relevant and that way hopefully no good ideas will be missed!?!

MK999 Posted December 24, 2010 Report Share Posted December 24, 2010 A particularly long 22.2mm seat tube with adjustable rail fitment so I can chuck a seat on my bike to ride to work, it seems no one makes them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
