  5. Get one! Theyr mint and you dont have to worry about hangers as you said. The echo control frames have always had nice geometry and are strong. Max...
  6. Both zoo pads and Plazmatic pads suck in the rain.As mentioned , get the Ali C joy blues and use them with a grind.
  7. Dont like it pal..just the same as every other Zoo! everything green.
  8. Sweet man! that looks really good.nice job Max...
  9. There is no BETTER type of bike.If there was dont you think everyone would ride that type of bike?
  10. Dont ever quit trials just because you are a girl.Thats just silly.Like it was mentioned above why would you want to quit if you like doing it? and anyway there are more and more girls across the world getting into trials which is really good to see Edit: if there are no riders locally try going off on the train to different places and meeting new people.There are some very mint people that ride trials and yes there are other female members on here Max...
  11. Dont be an annoying idiot all of your life, get out more.
  12. hmmm...i reaaly wanna go BUT go no one to go with and i dont know any one
  13. Thats the most silly thing you could do mate.Zoo pads really do suck in wet weather :cough: and in gerneral There is not a special technique to grinding a wheel.just drag the grinder across it relitively fast and make sure all the smooth braking surface is gone.If your going to get some winter pads get some from the koxx range , heatsinks or E-mail Mike Singleton and get him to snap up some phat pads Max...

  18. Hi there. Welcome to trials-forum. The best place to get a bike from would be tartybikes. The guys that run it are great and its the biggest trials shop in the UK so they have loads to choose from. To start off with the best option you have is to get a Onza t- rex spec 1,these bikes are great value and ideal for beginners.It costs £499 British pounds. Also ask them to put a 'grind' on your rims (which is £2 extra per rim) the grind will help your brakes hold in the wet weather.Also get some good brake pads. links: bike brake pads There are different ways of ordering. You could give them a call and order by credit or debit card order online send a cheque etc. all of the needed details are on the site.Feel free to call them! they can help with anything. Good luck with trials mate Max...

  20. The echo bearings are actually very good.They are infact japanese bearings. I have a echo non disc front hub and its mint.The bearings are really smooth and the hub is very low profile and lightweight.No problems since ive had it.(last Christmas) The Hope xc hubs are also very very good.I have had two of them and neither of them have broken. Except for when i cracked the flange , but that was after loads of harsh riding.If they do go wrong though Hope are very easy to contact and they will repair your hub sometimes free of charge. Max...
  21. Do people actually read the rules any more?
  22. I like the sound of the rear brake But the public dont I also like it because its mine,gets alot of attention from the public and rides good. I dont like the fact i cant run the chain without a tensioner though. Max...
