  1. martin hawyes could!!! its his replica bike!!!!
  2. those link dont work mate. try uploading your videos to youtube or copy the HTML coding from photo bucket.
  3. yeah. the old school yellow one!!! and you're right, a train doesnt go to sidmouth have i seen you riding there before? what do you ride?
  4. you ride in torquay much? me and my mate will be there at some point this half term. ive never been to sidmouth though. how long is a train journey there?
  5. well i got a seat on my 26" i hate being out with my mate when he is doing something, and i try the same things and people always say "you cant do that on that bike. its not a trials bike" READ THE FRAME!!! ok thats a crap photo. i think you can just about make out the "Trials Team" on the frame!!!!
  6. i started on a 26" i ride a giant trails team martin hawyes replica bike. its not the latest bike so its a bit old school. but it does the job. it has a seat so not many people recognise it as a trails bike!!! i can speak for a lot of people when i say that Tartybikes and Selectbikes are the best shops to get the latest bikes from. click on the linkys to go there
  7. ok, those are all a bit far!!! anywhere closer that is good to ride? you people must know somewhere new?
  8. ok, so it's half term this week and me and my mate will want to go to new and fun places to ride. we live in newton abbot in devon and there is a train station so we can get most places. so far we have been to : - -Plymouth -Teignmouth -Torquay -Paignton -Exeter -Exmouth i think thats pretty much it. but can any of you kind people here recommend me any other good places to ride? we are moderatly good, but not that good, so a place with smaller stuff would be great!!! but there has to be some good drops!!! thanks fellas, and lady fellas if there are any reading!!!!
  9. TARTYBIKES they sell a lot of boosters. a lot of people will say that this is the best trials shop. its the only place i use
  10. it is usually plymouth where i get this kind of stuff. a crew tryed starting on me and my mate when we were riding in plymouth today. they were pushin me around, but luckily, i was wearing my motoX gloves with a carbon fibre knuckle protector because i coulnt find my trials gloves this morning!!! gave one of them a dead arm and one of them a dead leg, the other 2 ran off!!! i never thought id be so happy to lose my trials gloves!!!
  11. thats cool. i'll order one off tarty on monday. that way i can get it before half term and get some good riding in. also, will the tensile 4 bolt mounts fit in the evo mountings? i dont want to spend £18 on pads that i have to sand down due to the size of my rim
  12. i ride a giant trials team, and as most of you will know, they only have a 2 bolt fitting due to it being an OLD SCHOOL frame. the frame flexes really badly and ive been wanting a booster for a while, i've found one that will fit the width of the frame but it says - will they still fit on the 2 bolt fittings on my EVO mountings on my giant???
  13. my first bike is a giant trials team!!!! martin hawyes replica!!! its not the best but t does the job. currently saving for a 24seven holroyd!!!
  14. hey dude, i see in the little space under your pic that you live in devon? where abouts as its a big place. my favourite place to ride is plymouth, but thats south devon. add me on msn if you want to go riding. me and my mate will come out (he rides a T-Pro aswell) mainlining-murder@hotmail.co.uk
  15. well, i got called a "terrorist" when hopping up a 2 foot wall!! i get called a show off when i wait on my back wheel waiting for an old woman to walk past the gap im about to do, and i get "EMO" or "W*NKER" shouted at me nearly all the time. i just ignore them!!!!
  16. hi guys, i was just wondering wether the 4 bolt offset clamps from tensile would be compatible with the magura evolution 2 bolt mounting system? i ride an old school giant so it is far too old for the 4-bolt technology!!!
  17. V8s are ok pedals, 've had mine for a couple of months, iv'e ridden them a lot but not that hard as im not really that good!!! but they started craeking today and there is a lot of play in them. i might upgrade to the revells. they look like a good pedal and great value for money too!!
  18. yeah chavs suck. where i live, its all the 12 year old "mini chavs" who threaten to beat you up. so you stand there and tell them to hit you and they poo themselves and started stutterring in fear!! y-y-y-you f-f-f-f-f-f-f@$%£&^ EMO. i think emo is their favourite word at the moment!!! i got chased by 2 of the before, but one of them was as wide as he was tall so he couldnt run that far. but the other one kept chasing me, so i slowed down and pulled a stoppie, he ran into the back wheel!!! oh how i loved that day!!!
  19. i agree, a nice silver 07 echo would look MINT. i know this is off topic, but how does the pure ride? i quite like the look of them.
  20. i know what you mean dude. on saturday, i borrowed my mates T-pro as my giant is crippled at the moment but my back is still killing me, it is a bit better from sleeping on the floor last night though
  21. yeah the police and old people piss me right off! but the weirdest thing was, i got told off by a blind man when i was riding in teignmouth. he had the white stick and a guide dog, apparently i was scaring the children!!!! there were no damn little kids around and i dont even know how he noticed me!!! HE CAN'T SEE
  22. no way dude that sucks. i have one of those bikes and i would be so unbelievably gutted if mine got stolen. i'll definatly keep an eye out for you. was it the yellow or black version that was stolen?? i really hope you get it back though. keep looking on ebay mate.
  23. well if its a stock, it will be the pitbull.
  24. My college isn't open tomorrow for some reason so me and a few mates are going to plymouth. anyone else want to join me as i will be the only trials rider there and everyone else rides street/park MTB. also, it will be my first proper ride on a mod as my giant has a screwed rear hub. add me on MSN if u want mainlining-murder@hotmail.co.uk
  25. the Giro Xen is a popular choice. i now a lot of other riders who wear them. i got mine for £70 in the chain reaction summer sale. its really light and comfortable too. and it's well worth the money
