  1. man your bike looks sick,i wouldnt change it at all. unless you want to change parts to make it ride better.

    360 Endo

    ive been doing them for a while now.i found that you need a harder front tyre pressure to help while you learn. i cant give any pointers, its hard to explain,just pump yoour tyre up. check out my video its got one in it. go to 1:42 and you will see it.
  3. the ridings got potential,my thoughts after watch your riding is that you riding to ridgid in the body movements for the style of riding your doing.learn to loosen up and itll be heaps better both riding and filmimg.
  4. the front wheel and forks are a bit white together.other than that its awsome
  5. to run my brakes trough forks i use this http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=36084 it works well,easy to adjust with cable or line run through

    My New Riding Video

    i agree,i think the song suits the video,hence why i used it.
  7. this is the only down side to the rims. i just bomb down a hill,my grind shapes the pad to suit

    My New Riding Video

    thanks guys every one like different music, so its hard to cater for all tastes.
  9. well then its not a problem at all for you.if you get it post up how it goes for you.
  10. just thought you guys would be keen to see my new riding video.its been made for a video comp.i contains a little bit of pure trials footage mostly made up of me on my inspired. ill post a link to the video comp so you guys can vote for me,if you want. let me know what you think.
  11. using the correct spoke holes to rim holes is always a good choice,its sketchy to build it missing holes,there not designed to be run like that, you said you got some money,get the correct rim to suit your hub,if you cant find what you want sell your current hub and get a 32 to suit the trials rim you want.
  12. ive got a set of identi rebates on my inspired,there a nice fork for street riding,i wouldnt put them on a trials bike,the legs are super flexy when slowing down,doing taps and such. if its on a trials bike id run the alloy forks.the rebates weigh 1.4kg i think and a good trials fork is 900gr so theres a 500gr saving.
  13. you will need to consider your rear hub also.the wider axle will play havock with you chain line.if you have a 9speed hub you could move your sproket,however if you use a trials specific say tryall screw on you chain line will be up to shit.
  14. that looks really good man,its good to see another inspired that hasnt been built up as a pure trials bike. looks really fun to ride.
  15. amen brother i know what your saying,i pulled mine apart after a big ride in the rain,the lock ring came loose and it was full of crap(grit and dust).i cleanened it out put some graphite powder in there,that was about 7 months ago and its been fine since. i found my seals werent in properly,i yhink thats how it got full of crap. it doesnt bother me,i like to tinker with my bike from time to time.
  16. Is the front rim ground and the rear not? how do the tnn lgm work without a grind?
  17. im using the halo combat rims.i found them to be between the rhyno lites and dx32 for weight.the are fantastic.hold a grind well. did i mention there fantastic.ive cased so big things and there straight,dent free.can get in 32 or 36.there alsi a nice width,36mm i think. check them out
  18. i weigh a 110kg and my eno is holding up great,its been used for a year now,the amount of force ive put through mine and it still as smooth as the day i got it. if you want to know the force i mean,i can snap brand new kool chains in 10mins of riding,every time.im using a khe collape chain and it seems to last. Best part with eno is that you can get every seperatly if you did break it. on another note,try all products is just rubbish so stay away from them.
  19. that looks really good,i converted my inspired to similar set up. the bars/stem make the difference.mine is so much nice to ride street now,im going to some skate parks today for some footage,will post it up what im finished. a quick spec on mine profile 3 piece cranks king hub in rear with halo combat rims hope front hub on halo combat rim profile stem,ns district 3.5 '' rise identi rebate forks,there the same geo as a normal trials fork,but look heaps better xtr levers with bb7 and avid ultimate brakes,with odyssey linear slick cables
  20. ive got a set. i can say there the best set up ive ever used.ive used all kinds of boosters and clamps.these are the easiest to set up,so insted of using the tpa to adjust you can move the cylinder,because it clamps straight up with out the plastic washer. ive used the tnn clamps and booster for 5months now,use it on front and rear.the clamps have a low stack height,the only proplem is ypur cross over line is on top of the booster,thats only a small problem tough. its really worth getting a set if you hate setting up maguras with the plastic washer,how ever you brake mounts must be square. i also run the tnn lgm pads,i must say they are the best pads i have ever used.
  21. this works really good. or get some clear plastic hose and cut down the middle.then wrap it around ur down tube and use cable ties to hold in place.
  22. thanks for the comments guys. i didnt like riding on logs and posts at first but i found so many lines that were possible to do,so i had to learn to do it so that i could do the lines.its worth the time and commitment.
  23. my rohloff is a few years old now and its still going strong,scratched up but what do you expect.its had many big knocks and landings,been swapped from bike to bike.i love it and will keep it till it dies.then ill just get the same.
  24. Thanks for the comments guys.ive been riding for a long time,but focused on trials for the last 3 years. there was a big jump in riding from 1st to 2nd.there was about 1 year between the two video and ALOT of time on the bike.as a beginner you just have to keep it up,keep doing it and having fun. That BT is no more it broke 6months ago,just after the 3rd video. that backward wheelie took a while to learn,but i was worth it.that clip stripped out my cranks and i had to buy a new set
  25. Youll be suprised at how much difference between the rotor make.you wouldnt think it would be so much difference.its worth doing if your front brakes are terrible.
