  1. Your haven't been knighted............... you have just proved your not a complete cretin. (no offence to anyone stuck in new members for months and months)
  2. That is really crap your frame snapped mate, and after 3 months. I think this shows its better to go with a more respected company even though it might cost a bit more, unlike diamondback who aren't exactly known for their quality. Phil
  3. Properly mental! Don't even know what goes on inside the head of a top bmx'er! Last one is proper funny, how could he over cook that so so much. Phil
  4. Used to have one and I'm preety sure it wouldn't work. Should of waited for a coust! Phil
  5. Just out of interest is the gapping flat gap or some crazy ass drop gap? Phil
  6. If its possible for a trials video to be beautiful....that was it. Incredible riding, deserved every bit of slow motion, wouldn't say it's particularly revolutionary and out of the box though. (the slow mo that is) Phil
  7. Heat them up mega style and then hit them with a hammer or mallet. Phil
  8. No pad in the world will hold on a smooth rim in the wet. Anyway, I would seriously consider getting a grind mate, way to go in the end. Phil
  9. Allright Martin Luther King..... At the end of the day I am quite certain there is a higher probability of getting trouble off of someone who is wearing pikey/chavvy clothes than someone who is not. I find it difficult to imagine otherwise. Unfortunately we don't have the ability to talk to everyone we see in the street so we don't know if they are allright. Prejudice is wrong but it is an inevitable and necersarry part of being a human and will always be. Phil Very well put. People who wear trackies are making themselves up to be freedom fighters for wearing what they want, when really I think the real issue is people who go around smacking random people's heads in and stealing etc. Phil

    Manuals were unbelievable! Such control! Wouldn't really call it trials riding though. And the wheelies got abit much by the end. Phil
  11. After watching some awesome riders on their 24's I can't help but think it looks abit slow, sluggish and like a huge amount of effort is required. Is this solely down to the fact most of the 24's about are designed for street trials so have a higher gear and thus take some effort to move about on the backwheel? Phil
  12. Such a funny vid! And the music just makes it more amusing! Except the stair gap which is rotten. Not being harsh but every video you post is old, so only bother if they are proper classic. Phil
  13. I just think the whole thing is an anti-climax Regardless of if the guy did claim the bike etc I'm sure everyone including adam would have liked it to be a massive deal. Instead it ended up a little flat as is evident from the phone call on youtube, some of you might say 'he runs a company he probably won't mind that much' but it has to be a little gutting when the person doesn't react how you had hoped. And besides would have been a kit more amusing to hear someone absolutely spazz out down the phone! Phil
  14. I think it's a poor attempt to conjour something special and unique up for the sponsored riders, should have gone with a colour untouched by Deng, (if one exists) maybe some shade of brown! But I love hope as a company! Great parts and great customer service. Phil
  15. 'Big man' used to ride one and I think 'Spode' does now which points to me that they might be fairly decent, never ridden one myself mind. Phil
  16. Get a grind and some decent pads and save yourself the hassle! Phil
  17. Firstly don't use the search it's cack. I use one and personally think they are a good idea because: - more reactive break as water is less viscous. - easy and quick to bleed when you need it. - Costs no money atall - No tools are needed to bleed it. Unless you live in Norway or keep your bike in some external place I don't think the antifreeze is necersarry, mine's been going all winter without it. So yes it's a good idea BUT if you have oil now and your brake it fine then leave it that way! Phil
  18. EDIT: Your wrong, it's a different user, you are getting confused between the names czarbikes and czartrials. I believe an apology is in order. Phil
  19. Go for it, absolutely lovely to ride. Will make a video in a few weeks hopefully. Wheel back on monday, last 2 weeks has been hell. Phil
  20. Cheers for the comments guys! I am indeed using a magura marta with a shimano lever, feels rather nice. The rotor is a complete missmatch! basically the 160mm marta disk was too small, got about 10% of the pad touching the disk, the 180mm marta disk was too big and it wouldn't spin and after trying loads of mounts got fed up so got a 170mm I think it is, worked a treat. Phil Appreciated! Phil erm 1085 with +15bb I believe, headangle not a clue Phil
  21. Here is my Toxsin 1, Put a race face stem on and some tryall replica bars, changed the rear rim to an echo 07, changed the spokes, changed the rear tyre and some other little stuff. Happy with it, shame hope have my mono hub at the moment hopfully fixing it! Tell me what you think.... Cheers, Phil
