Entry form here for 8th May at Haddington. Some new routes and no dodgy descents!
Remember the 4th Scottish round entry forms shall be through the Bike Trial Federation website for the 4th of June. Entry money to go to them as they are organising. I will present awards and points to those in the Scottish Bike trial Club only. You will also still have a go at the bike trial cup as well. Stay on and ride in the British champs on Sunday if you like.
That a promise?

Looking nice James.
Lets hope you do it justce at the comps.
Good weight too.
Hopefully i can get used to it quickly for the comp this weekend.
My first impressions of the bike are good, sits on the back wheel stupidly easy fells very controlled. Went for my first ride last night tried a few lines that are on my limit of what I can usually manage and pissed them and that was with the hangover. Placebo effect of a new bike perhaps, who knows?

Am coming for you Lewis!

love the look of that bash ring. nicest echo 24" i have seen.
-
Fancied a wee change from my yaabaa 1499, so decided to jump on the echo bandwagon.
Made a few changes after riding it, pretty much got carried away on tarty.
new echo tr pedals(originals were cracked), heatsink pads,echo tr clamps, sl washers, gold ti bolts, new trialtech foams and gold bb spacers.
I also did away with the trialtech spacers to get the bash lower and closer to the frame, should be even stiffer now.

Clamps: Tnn clamps with ti bolts
Rear pads :Tnn backings with tnn belay material
Front brake : Xtr lever with avid sd5 calipers ti pivot bolts alloy cable bolt

If you are riding the rest of the comps 18:14 will benefit you a lot more. Street riding where you have the space for big power moves and general zooming about I can see 18:13 being beneficial.
I may even have a cheeky wee splined wide base gusset cog for sale ;-)
-
Actually love watching you ride that bike it always looks like you are having far to much fun! Totally agree with Bens blurb about you on his blog aswell.
-
I would definitely be using steel in that situation.
The man has spoken
-
Aye Kev so good you said it twice.
-
Ask Gary mac I heard he is pretty good at the old moto trials.
-
Me and chris_m went riding at the trials park today, After the scottish comp on Sunday realised how much cool stuff there is to ride there now after the guys who run it put in a serious amount of effort sourcing a massive variety of different objects and rocks to ride.
Check it out for yourselves.
-
Yeah well i certainly cant find anything saying he is anything other than good to deal with.
But I hear you dude would be good to see stock availability etc.
-
What about the bionic with the same geo?
-
Aright folks Im trying to order a zhi z3r from trials parts.net have emailed the guy on the contact list but have not received a reply. are they still in business or is there a UK contact for them?

Do I get 10 deducted for riding a steel bike?
And dan the man should get 10 aswell since he has a seat.
na 10 points added for having a silly 24inch steel tgs bike.
-
ben good to see the positive attitude be good seeing you on a comp bike again, least then i can watch and learn. I'll keep digging my heels in and keep practising though thats for sure.
Ross gets 20 dabs deducted for riding a steel bike with a seat. (A mans bike)

your really missing the point dude lol, I have a 14t you can have for a few quid if you wanna try it then you have the choice to swap whenever you feel the need for some street and some natty.
Ps, is there even a street where your from?
