  1. Yehh, we may even head to the column as the first spot as its the furthest away... Ill text you rob

    Any more takers?

    11 o'clock, Frankwell Car Park, Saturday

    Cheers

    Coolio I might just meet you there (at the column) as I live that side of town. I'll drag Tom out too. I'll be at the column from about 11:30.

  2. ;)

    upload to tf or vimeo?

    also Mark you fail, it WASN'T beastie boys. It was Wiseguys - Re-introduction

    Will be here at 11:30pm (vimeo compiling)

    Vimeo Video -> Original Video

    Ah yeah this was the Wiseguys one, Im sure there was definitely another with a beastie boys track though.

    Great find though! 2002?!! Can't believe it was that old! Wonder if he still rides...

  3. Thanks. So should I first send my photos to one website saving images, then insurt the link about these photos?

    yeah if you upload to imageshack then right click on the image and 'copy image url'. When you make a new post, click on the little button with the picture of a tree that says 'insert image' (when you roll over it) and paste the url link into the dialogue box.

    best thing to do is preview the post before you submit it to check that it has worked.

    Hope this helps.

  4. Someone must have this video, and the uncultured Ali and Stan haven't seen it.

    This needs to change.

    If anyone's got it and could upload it to Trialstube, Youtube or anything like that that'd be bueno.

    This was the one with the Beastie Boys track wasn't it? Filmed in Aberystwyth? Vaguely remember it, he rode a Pace?

  5. Agree with the above post, most comfortable frame I've ridden in a long time. Obv. doesn't feel as good on the back wheel as some of the longer stock frames, but you'd be surprised how well it does ride on the rear. Getting the right bar and stem combo is pretty essential IMO.

    Most people seem to go High rise bars and short stem - its what I've got and it feels really nice. Spins feel effortless, and it still side-hops / gaps relatively well.

    Echoing other thoughts on this forum, I really don't think it suits a UCi style bar and stem combo - not really what it was designed for. But I guess its whatever is good for you.

    Price wise I'd defo recommend going second hand. These frames are pretty bombproof, so the chances of it being knackered are small. I picked mine up with a couple of scratches from a guy off the forum for £150 - a steal when you consider the rrp is £329.

    Hope this helps

  6. Anyone got any ideas on where to get paint other than Halfords? They've got a colour thats kinda mixed between the blue and green, but I'm after more of a peppermint green.

    Any thoughts?

  7. I now have the tripple colour seat (is this sad?), may have to order some new Fatty r forks from my Cannondale dealer as cant find any team blue coloured ones <img src="http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/forum/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" /> Have ordered some RS7 as The coda crank where on the red bike not blue, please correct me if im wrong.

    I seem to be spending too much time now on Ebay looking for old parts for this bike than I do riding my Atomz at the moment, suppose this Welsh rainy weather is helping the course as well.

    I will let you all know about further updates, pics soon also.

    Would you be up for swapping the triple coloured seat for the Volvo cannondale blue one? I'm thinking of re-building my hawyes replica!

  8. So after some further investigation it would seem that this guy has a DVD out. Gonna see if I can get hold of it. Apparently it features Waynio off of here!

    Anyone know any more about this?

  9. We blogged this video yesterday.

    Tis awesome.

    Damn you Stan!

    and there was me thinking I'd found something original!

  10. Seeing as there seem to be quite a few Designers on the forum I thought it would be nice to share what everybody does. Always inspiring to see other peoples portfolios. Doesn't matter if its web, print, motion, photography - anything. Always good to build up the contacts :P

    I work here...

    What does everyone else do?

  11. The Boon has done that Greeny colour on his Curtis. Well, its similar.

    I'd go without the black and white stripes and just have it solid with some decent black stickers. I really don’t know what people have got with skulls though. Tattoos, posters, on bike paint jobs......Where’s the appeal?

    Any ideas where Boon might have got the paint from? Or did curtis spray it themselves?

    Cheers

  12. You've got me doubting myself now... anyone confirm or deny the allegations of a 14" version of the Ashton replica frame?

    I thought he was saying on the London ride last year that he didn't keep any of them (though he wished he had). Or was that just the blue proper signature ones rather than the red Beast of the Easts?

    Are you suggesting I kill Martyn for it?...

    Yeah he said he doesn't have one any more. Thought he was going to steal mine at one point!
