covered, well lit and has pallets........might be the best practice spot i have ever seen sweet riding

bad news about the weather. is there any benefit to wearing tight leggings and shorts? ive only ever work jeans to ride in. Wouldnt be caught dead in leggings haha, but if it helps then i cant argue

nice man, like it. Looks like you already have the good weather to

nah pretty sure its not trialskings. I used to love them dudes and watched all their vids, and dont think it was one of them. cheers though dude

i've been trying to remember a video I used to love years and years ago. So only the old skool (the ones in trials for fun ) will remember it i imagine. Let me tell you what i know about it... dude is riding a black planet-x zebdi i believe, with silver brisa forks he is wearing a black hoody and brown/beige/cream cargo like pants near the start he bunnyhops to back wheel up a big bollard looking monument thing he also hops onto a small bollard and is about to hop up onto a a big metal gate but slips off and bends his mech. would love to watch it again, try reignite the 'makes me wanna ride' vibe it gave me before, in time for summer.

bars?

thanks for the help guys. Ye, sorry i was more pointing to the green bars. i used to run azonic double walls and i currently run inspireds....and i miss the flatter (less upsweep) azonics. Id put my old pair back on if 1) i hadnt sold them and 2) they were a 31.8mm clamp size. so any suggestions on bars or idea of what the actual geo (upsweep and backsweep) of the azonic doubles walls are? Then i can browse CRC to find the closest match. Also, are the 31.8mm bars really that much stronger than the ummm 28..???mm (cant remember the older skinny bar clamp size. thanks in advance

saw a few videos by him and his brother. Anyone know the bike they ride and more importantly the bars? They look ideal for me as they have little to no upsweep and with alot of rise. here is a video for reference. cheers for any info

love it, proper bike

roses are red violets are blue JD's being a nause again nothing new.

my mate text me the other day...he is like my joke partner. Constantly texting sick jokes. He sent me this on valentines day... "Roses are red, Violets are twisted, bend over girl, you're getting fisted" then i thought of one... "Roses are red, Violets are blue, I'd love someone gorgeous, but you'll have to do" If you could put that in a card and give it to your misses and she laughed, you should keep her! There are so many that can be made up, was just wondering if anyone had any funny ones they wanted to share. Doesnt have to be related to valentines likes these two or even to this poem or tune etc.

cheers man, Im running the same brake set up really, but not getting used them really. What pads are you running? Your bar height isnt that high either, thought it would be. Think im running mine too high really. Im switching around stem stackers to try find best feel at the moment. oh and how rude of me.....sweet video mate, you make it look pretty effortless and in turn makes you stylish. Only gonna keep improving if you keep the standard up

any chance i could get some pics of your set up?

you have just summed up why i love riding, made me crave summer, and made me want to ride......well done, loved it

YOU GOT SKIIIIIILLZ!!!

i live 30 mins from the pashley factory! Most of my mates rode them! pretty much that set up. I even thought that was my friends bike then! Those seats will always make me laugh. Just the general set up there floods me with memories of being younger. Makes me realise how big a part trials has been in my life. Makes me smile

kujo, el gato, d521. these words give me such fond memories....it kind of feels like trials isnt like that anymore. Not sure if thats good or bad. Any one rock the panaracers? like the xc wirefire or something? and the michelin hot s! haha love this! and tiny plastic seats, before someone realised they were pointless!! TAKE ME BACK! edit: ow rude of me! love the ride dude!!

nah came like that, although its not perfect so i dont believe it was machined, just drilled by hand. no side effects at all.

cheers man, ye some of the stackers are coming off for sure, im just playing about now to figure bar height. I would get higher rise bars but ive got used to these now and the trialtech high risers have too much upsweep for me, doesnt feel comfortable for my wrists. And i dont really know any other bars

liked it dude! my style of riding, good camera work/editing/song. my best friend is currently located just outside boston in natick, he's a soccer coach.

ye im messing with stem stackers now to see whats best then cutting to suit its the only way. as for frame, solid as ever! ive dented downtube and that was 6 months ago with no side effects. Im the second owner of this frame and cannot fault it at all to be honest

haha, its the little touches that make it though! well i had a 90x35 stem on it (as seen in the darker image by the front door) and i thought it was a bit too high. so ive put like a 70x20 ish? and had a lil roll and it seemed alot better. i just really need to practice all this bmx'y stuff now. i cant see how its possible to do 360's though. you lovin yours? you need a video man! im gonna work on one over the next few months i think, just to get me riding more

ye maaaaan agreed. not quite as swish as yours but i kinds love it still. what do you use as the stem stackers on yours? it looks like one solid piece where as mine is a collection of stackers.

rocking inspired elements now photos don't do it justice unfortunately. only had a lil blast out front but i think we will get along just fine
