haha looool thanx man im going to do that right now !! i hope i dont get pulled by the police for carrying a screwdriver though ok gonna dig up the road cya later guys

erm.. ok where can i get tar ? p.s im not allowed to use ebay or buy online

I dont know where to get tar from but my brothers dad told me it is similar to vandal grease can i put it on my rims ??

yes ok man i will look out but when im ridin trials on my own everyday it does get quite borin but that doesnt mean im gonna complain and quit lol " trials for life !! "

yeah i need some good brakes i cant land on the edge of anything without the back wheel slipping out i can bounce on the back wheel a little without it slipping too much though. i just wish i had money to get some even second hand ones lol but now i have to buy a new pedle because i snapped it in half and i bought a pair of gloves today so i got no money but when i start my apprenticeship i get £30 a week ant then i can get some bike parts

not really any good spots in trafford but there can be if u go looking for them lol but i feel like im the only one who does trials in the whole of manchester because no-one near me does it :$ but im new though im not that good yet i can hop on my back wheel a little i am really dedicated to this sport i think its really good but non of my friends are interested in it i live near the trafford centre bout 5 minuits walk but when i go out doing trials i do it on my own lol and that suxx, would be good to ride with someone from my area or mayby just watch them show off lmao because on other topics on here people have told me u learn better if ur with people instead of on ur own

anyone here from manchester near the trafford centre area that rides trials ? or am i the only one ?

trials tips and ways to improve my bike setup etc.. are really helping me out thanx guys ! i can see a big improvement in my balancing after only one day im really happy with my improvement lol slowly getting there.. one day ill be able to bounce on the back wheel with full control unfortunatly i snapped my pedal in half gonna get a new pair of metal pedals tomorrow the ones that came with the bike were cheap plastic

Thank god i thought i was the only person with this bike u have gave me confidence now what are maguras ??

ye i think that everyone has said that it wont make much difference in weight so i wont drill it lol i'd probably really make a mess anyway just thought it would be lighter and the lighter it is the easier to manouver it is but i will leave it how it is.

u put duck tape on your grips would that not make the grip worse ?? yo man i like the sound of that i just need to find some wooden crates from somewhere i think these forums and you guys are helping me alot. I am making noticable progress in just one day. I have just bought my first pair of bike gloves and a new rear brake cable because it was slipping abit

thats what i was thinking lol

have u tried spraying WD40 over all the joints. Thats what i do untill the noises stop

ok i tilted up the handle bars but i need to go out and buy new pedals cheap pedals came with the bike and i snapped them on a wall. last night im also going to buy new grips and a pair of golves my hands are killing me

ok ill keep the seat post and yes ur right i dont lean far back enough as to a point where it gets it the way so ill just take ur advice and leave it

lol i am not going cut it off myself with a hacksaw my freinds dad can do it for me (do it properly and make it look good) it was the only trials bike in my local bike shop thats why i bought it. i just thought it was a wiked bike when i seen it. i didn't even realise it was a trials bike at the time because i had never seen one like that before. it just caught my eye My dad wont kill me. he lives nowhere near me and i dont see him anymore. i will stick at it forever trials is my life now i go out on it every day no matter how bad i am i will never give up untill i am as good as you guys ill fit in better if i had no seat lmao !!

ok iv added you simpson hope ur right zoo

thank you vary much man !!! i waz just going to make a new topic asking if i should tilt up my handle bars

simpson i like ur bike . thanx for the advice the bikes with the straight stem i like the most (unlike mine) im not weight concious i just thought that a small light bike would be easier for me to manouver. ill just stick to my bike like u said and save up for better parts for it

ok thank you guys i will check out that site and Zoo i have added you on MSN thanx for the advice

ok thank you

no problem

ok thanx man yes u helped me. but does drilled holes make the bike much lighter or is there not much difference ?

i want to know the weight and price and type etc.. of peoples bikes because obviously unlike you i am very interested in this sport (or mayby im just eager to learn) and i enjoy riding. im asking these questions because i want to be able to get the lightest and easiest to manouver bike out there in my price range to suit me. i am new to this forum, and to trials biking and im sorry if ur so offended by my question but this is a forum for NEW MEMBERS so what do you expect !!!! once again thanx for all the posative comments that actually helped me guys

Hi guyz i asked someone before what the holes in the tyres were for. he said it waz to make the bike lighter. i waz wondering does it make much difference in weight and can i drill the holes myself ? and is there any other wayz to make my bike lighter without buting parts ?
