Change cranks bash and freewheel and it'll be a very nice steed Looks tidy as is.

Haven't seen that one....got the AAA one though ( access all areas ) when he's on the justice and the planet-x

Just looks like the old hs22? Fail in my eyes....looks shit, really bulky.

Yarp....£150-180 I reckon.

I agree totally with Chin.....Trialtechs would be better, or ideally some viz pro720/monty ti/ try-all rage bars. My Try-all NUC stem is perfect on my coust V2 ( +40, 1117, 380 )

Music was just.... Not into it. Riding was good , but prefered your last video Edit was better I reckon though...

The truvativ hussefelts and the DMR wing bars feel pretty nice on a trials bike....otherwise I'd say go for trials specfic. Monty 221ti, Viz pro 720, try-all nowar are all good choices with nice geometry

Trialtech are probably the strongest out there at the moment....I have the Viz which are virtually identical and rate them highly. I know of a couple of people that have cracked the TT at the disc mount though. The stems look pretty good, I haven't heard anything bad about them....they seem pretty hench. I've heard of a few people killing those mounts so I'd say go echo tr, echo elitis or old echo cnc mounts. All I've seen working and performing well

Riding was awesome, loved the intro too, lush editing. Little more "typical" trials riding and it'd have been perfect

So the gauntlet has been laid down...maybe I9 should send a hub to a professional trials rider to give it the going over? See if it really is all that Rup'y claims it to be

Cassette lockring tool...no you cant really get it off unless you want to grind it off.

Basically heading up to Kent for a few days...im staying in Faversham so if anyone could show me some spots around there or within a short train ride that would be ace. I've heard Herne Bay is fairly good? Cheers, add me to msn to discuss Link to original topic here

Nobody want to show me around? Or at least give me a vague idea of where's good to go?

Anyone else fancy it? Or could tell me where to go from the station to find some good spots?

Unbolt the lever with the aid of a 3mm allen key and 8mm spanner Pop the circlip out with some circlip pliers, spin the pin out from the lever with a 2mm allen key.

The Sl hub isn't much different to the TR....The TRs are damn good for the money, but the rockmans just look better designed I reckon.

Second hand without a seconds hesitation...for that money it's by far your best bet. If stock, i'd say something like an Echo Control, Zoo pitbull , T-rex etc...just something that's low-mid BB and a reasonable length. You should be looking for a rear Pro2 free-hub, or a good fron freewheel set-up. All major parts should be aluminium, and most branded. If you're considering going mod then I'd say straight away to look at an Onza t-pro. Loved by most people on this forum for their low weight, good strength and great flicky yet controllable geometry. This would be easy to pick-up a fairly decent spec for the £250 mark, certainly far easier than a stock.

Erm....Echo team mod? Im assuming you'll want something around 1015-1030 ( the Zona's are on the long side of 1040 usually )

Echo TR or Trialtech half-ring I reckons

Great...do it

The Hi-Fi are the same as the team, with a massive great CNC'd crown. I think they weigh in at around 1.1kgs? The control are completely different, with no cnc'd lump on them, they're more similar to phase or Koxx forks in their shape. They're around 850gr.

Music was spot-on...and the line at 3mins was mint Extremely nice style too....

In what way is that dodgy? Just some heatsink Vee-daptors Odd set-up...mix of some pretty heavy parts and some very lightweight. Looks good though
