    thats cool,when will that be ?as i would like some
  8. im a bit like you ,no motovation,im fine once i am riding outside my town but i get bored with the sam stuff day in day out.at the moment i ride 2-3 times a week ,for a hour or so just to keep me busy like . what i have found that helps is to ride somewhere that doesnt get rode very often,for me thats a long line of 40 big rocks down a side of a road,they are all in a line and linda boring to ride trials on but when i try streety moves on them its a whole new game ,i suggest that you try something like that .
  9. i too like it ,looks different to the majority of bikes that are about ,u get a big
  10. Ok, well what is the best gear at the moment? most stock riders are singles speed ,and a fair few run either 18:15 or 18:16 ,but of coarse ther are people who differ. Who are the best riders at the moment? pure street thrashing i would say neil tunnicliffe and damon watson ,as for streety bmx type riding i would say danny mac and for comps i dont know lol. Any big events coming up? like its been said ,have a look in the members ride section and just join along with them . cheers,steve

    is there a date set for the zhi vee adapters to arrive at trials uk?
  12. tarty whare house look good,and so does the trials park that ryan leech ride in during his videos
  13. that is the best looking one I've seen to date ,the blue is lovely .i think if inspired frames were available in this colour they would sell like hot cakes
  14. i get snapped at like that,takes the piss really,i just ignore my gf when she does that and go down the pub with the lads
  15. trials-uk have stocked heatsink parts for a little while now.lol at your postage comment ,steve is a busy guy who happens to work fulltime during the day,so heatsinkbikes is kind of his other job,he does try to get things posted asap as he's a sound bloke. steve
  16. i prefer bikes with a longer cockpit for some reason ,im not excessively tall 5'10 or 5'11 but i just like it.my mate who rode a short pure loved his ,but i didnt ,its just down to prefference.i suggest that you try out different frames to find out what you like
  17. if it was mine i would have a really dark grey in matt but thats just my opinion
  18. both look very nice,i must agree them style tensioners aren't the best really,derailler styled types are amazing tough such as rohloff i reccomend getting one of them badboys
  19. i ride the skatepark occasionally ,i dot drop in form the quarter pipes or do turndowns like but i do the occasional fakie and 180,i also like jumping the box but instead of landing down the flat side i land on the back wheel on top and then i hop of the side of it
  20. we went to the usual spots , e.g white walls,red walls,viccy square etc .we probably just missed you guys
  21. i dont think about it too much as i would get worried,but i do shout "gypsy" occassionally and this helps me do what im trying to do
  22. arms and levers,ultimates are pretty much the best like.slic cables help too.
  23. sounds ok,should do the job well enough,in time you should consider upgrading parts like. steve
