  1. i reckon try some of the british trials bike shops would be a good idea,the owners and workers all seem to be really big into trials and have been for years.just a idea steve
  2. sounds good so far,if its possible i reckon eyeletted rims will be cool steve
  3. i like try-all tyres on the front,light and very grippy steve
  4. when my rear rim gets wet it soemtimes goes a bit crap,and theres dark liquid that sort of covers it ,when this happens my brakes a bit poo.just give the rim a bit of a wash and sand the pads a little then you should be ok. steve
  5. no worries,heres the link for the topic http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/forum/index....howtopic=110826 steve
  6. im sure there are some,give grant hundley a email/pm ,he might have some on his pc that he didnt post. steve
  7. good picks there,is the fluecent yellow stock a koxx levelboss?i think it looks fit steve
  8. deng is the name given to the bloke that owns echo,gu,czar and zoo! ,theres a topic sumwhere on the forum about him. steve
  9. if you mean the echo control 4-bolt booster then yes,they are one of the stiffest boosters going,and worth every penny . steve
  10. my backwheel flexes a fair bit ,its not to noticable till the pads are close to the rim ,so when you kick the pedals you here the brake pads aginst the rim. steve
  11. same here ,my front nipples are all fine,but at least half my back ones are rounded or sheared accross,i highly reccommend not having these alloy nipples on the back wheel if you true your wheels alot. i dont think he was making fun of you mate,just deng products steve
  12. some people ahve experianced problems with running a water bleed,but i can say i have'nt had any (yet).i find the lever pulls hell of a lot easyier than oil ,and generally just feels better. steve
  13. cool,ask him for two tone rims ,purple and black
  14. wicked has 'mr ko' decided on a colour yet? steve
  15. i like my bike fairly light,im not the most powerfull of riders so i like my bike easy to through around so i choose lighter parts.i dont go over boared with the weight game,i have a double walled rear tyre,echo forged cranks and so forth .also having lighter parts means you can have heavyer parts elsewhere on you bike,where it would make sence too. true,when i had a 32mm rear rim i could only use half the pad material steve
  16. also try halfords for. . . 1. ryan leech - the art of trials 2. martyn hawes and hartyn ashton - tricks and stunts both dvd's have pretty well explained techiniques for a range of trials skills. steve
  17. pretty much check the seals,hoses ,fittings etc for leaks.also check to see if the pistons in the calipers and lever are returning as they should(almost instantanious ),if there not spray some wd40 or simular to lube up these parts.but be careful not to contaminate the pads or rim . steve
  18. http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/forum/index....showtopic=41481 have a gander at this,reviews on pretty much all the pads on the market i have used coust pads ,they were pretty damn good,though in my oppinion,heatsink reds are better cheaper too. steve
  19. tell us about your cyrrent bike first mate,maybe some pictures.its kinda hard reccommending stuff if we dont know what you have already steve
  20. im going with the crowd a bit ,cnc'ed with anodized black sideways,38/40mm and 47mm,32h and 36h . oww yeah ,in mod and stock sizes too steve
  21. i remeber seeing pics of folk having there hub bolts sandwicheing (sp) their tensioner to their frame,so they didnt need a mech hanger. steve
  22. its a anagram (sp) of onza thats all i know. steve
  23. i might give it a go tommorrow,i'll report back later. . . . edit: couldnt balence for sh#t lol :$
