  1. Looks nice mate. The base bikes frames are known to crack around the seat tubes due to people not running a seat tube and clamp, so I would recomend a proper seat to save your frame. Ask anyone and they will back me up on this. Im not a firm believer in drilling/cutting bits off my frame so I wouldnt cut the seat tube if I were you.
  2. I was wondering what the World Bunny Hop record is? I also wondered if the side hop record is a different thing altogether in terms of Guinness World Records? Infact Id also quite like to know the side hop record too, and who holds it. Thank you.
  3. Thats really nice son. How the hell did you get that chain tension?
  4. Mint...love it up there. You boys have got the skills. So glad to see that your going back to the grass roots of trials and riding, I would say, one of the hardest natural spots aroud. Keep riding there and you will be very good very soon.
  5. I mean it will be full of river bed rocks and hardly any street you f**king paranoid android.
  6. PM Ben Travis son. Ben doesnt like to put vids of me together on my 24" LOL dont worry the skills are increasing on the 24 and more action will be had. Some know what im on about.....
  7. Hes right I did...light as f**k but actually shudder, if thats the right word, when you brake!! I would only recommend them for comps man.
  8. Awwww thanks son. Dont worry as long as us Scottish riders live we will make vids. Come on the Scottish Muckers!! Next one will be a bit different I think.....
  9. OOOft that rail bail was mint. The council dont want trials riders or skaters anywhere near the rails do they...jees. OOOft that rail bail was mint. The council dont want trials riders or skaters anywhere near the rails do they...jees.
  10. BTW incase you didnt know thats Danny Macaskills old frame. Nice bike
  11. A cheap shite hair spray also works exactly the same as monty spray.
  12. i love the look of that bike. shame about the koxx it was gorgeous. did you get the ozonies as a free replacment? nice selection of techniques there, though its not the best vid youve made.
  13. Funny you should say that actually. We did go to a gay bar called The Waterloo, just to see my mate Dave whos the bouncer there to get keys off him. I didnt know it was a gay bar and the way I was dressed with that tight top and shorts didnt help. There I was stood outside waiting for Dave with the smokers...all staring at my ars!!! No joke. 40+ year old fat bearded men sporting hawaiian shirts gob smacked that Ross was unknowingly standing next to four men that wouldnt hesitate to take my ars virginity!!! Yes Jonny that was part of ther reason I was ragin you didnt bring those bars!! You put me through hell!! See if you havnt sent them yet, you can walk to fort bill.
  14. Well well well Im an emo am I? I was just so passionate about doing the line, the line of least resistance. Unfortunatly I cant hear the tune, which would have made it so much better of course. Loved it anyway Ben. Cheers Ben and Towler for filming and being so patient with the lines I was trying. (got there in the end) Strath you did miss a mazin day!! The tight top and shorts were a spur of the moment thing...to attract the ladies....and Hamish. Telling you man its all about the UCI tight clothes shizzle.lol Anyway, as I said, that was a mint vid, top job.
  15. Fair enough point. Its just that I do demos all the time, much more than Rich im sure, dont have any bike sponsers or T-shirt sponsers and have a full time job so dont really class myself as a professional trials/demo rider. Someone like Danny Mac who rides his bike for a living, I would class as a professional, and he even has to still buy most of his bike parts! I suppose if your whisked off to be a stunt double in Kuala lumpa for a BP advert and have make up woman dab the sweat from your brow then you can class yourself as professional. lol I wikkied professional trials rider and Martyn Ashton came up as did Danny Macaskill. lol Aw well just thought id let my thoughts be known, not trying to start anything.
  16. Slowly but surly lobottomising your bike.
  17. Make your dad read this thread and see what he says. You wont find a pad that will work in the wet with a smooth rim. If anyone wants to correct me feel free. But yea, take a grinder to it if you can it will work so much better. There should be loads of threads on here telling you how to do it properly. Keep safe, thats the main thing. And dont be scared of the grinder!!! They are bloody dangerous!! Ha ha thats why I came into this topic...I always fall on my ars no matter what. bike lands ontop of me too with me holding onto the bars. lol
  18. TRIALS TUBE!!! Why havnt you been riding son?? You missed a good weekend in Glasgow btw....the vid will tell the story, as does the pictures. Ps love the first clip.
  19. Very nice video Rich. I respect anyone who attempts lines and you just blew me away there. Cant hear the tunage but the vid on its own was entertaining enough. 360 tyre tap was cool. Filmed well and you look solid on that bike. A good variation of moves.

    Twice

    Very nice son. I loved how chilled it was. Very clear shots and well chosen angles. Wear a helmet though.
  21. Please remind me how you like to ride. Oh wait you bought a bmx and still ride your trials bike like you are riding a bmx so dont dis the guy by saying it was stupid.
