  1. Just never been up round there, I know that morcombe's good, it's gotta be worth taking the bike next time I'm up there anyway, it's only about 1.5-2 hours on the train.
  2. My brother got the demo, it's not trials at all, at a stretch it's the kinda thing Julien Dupont does.
  3. I'll have a think and see if I can come up with anything decent. Seems like fun!
  4. Nothing recent, and the ones I did make were pretty shit. Mat's just on a wind-up, ignore him lol. Here's my latest video, all the clips are from between a year and 9 months ago: http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/forum/index....ils&id=1654
  5. Sounds like you just need new O rings, you can get them from any normal hardware type shop.
  6. Can I just add, if you don't provide a link, it ain't going in. It's going to take me too long to add them in, and I havn't got the spare time at the moment. I'll decide the catagories tommorrow night, so please let me know of your ideas for catagories. Also, I think it's fair to say that each video can only be in one catagory, first time it gets nominated is the one it stays in. I'm also thinking of loosing the Best Mod, Best Stock and Best 24" catagories. It's about the video, not the bike or the riding, so it shouldn't matter what bike you ride. SO I'm thinking of just having video styles rather than wheel sizes. What do you think?
  7. I'd stick with the Pro2, they're cheaper, feel nicer to ride, sound better and in my experience, last longer.
  8. Don't even go there mate, it's not worth the hassle. Seriously, just ask Tarty when it'll be back in stock.
  9. How to single wall: Get an angle grinder with a cutting disc and something to hold the rim in. (Vice with soft jaws works well). Scribe lines connecting the edges of the circles together as far apart as you can, so they look like this: O || O The cut along the lines on the waste side, so you're cutting the inner wall out in pieces. Then just use the grinder to go upto the corner box section things. Leave the corner box sections in though, the rim needs these to have any stregnth at all! It's surprising how much it saves, I did a 26" Atomz rim, saved 130g.
  10. Oof, now I'm torn. Stinger or Premier for my next frame! (When I can afford one lol).
  11. Very nice Pat! Can't wait for the new vid.
  12. Good idea, I'll stick that in. The polls going to be tricky, maybe just turn this into a list of all the best videos? So people can find the really good ones if they want?
  13. Yeh, I've been riding nearly 3 years. I didn't mean it in a cry-baby type way, but it's true, Ryan can get on any bike and ride it well, I do get better slowly but curely, but some of the people I ride with just pick it up really fast, whereas I take ages. Also they seem to not loose stuff if they don't ride for ages, if I don't ride for a couple of weeks I normally "forget" how to do stuff and have to relearn it. (Taps and sidehops especially). If I rode all the time I'm sure I could get a lot better, but I'll never be "really good", not to the standard that Ryan meant anyway.
  14. Yeh I think that should work, just watch out for oil spurting out of the resevoir. Also when you've pushed it in, it will compress the air, so you need to hold it in in order to wait for the pressure to drop as it pushes the oil up the hose.
  15. You have to push it really hard, and also you might have to disconnect the hose so the air inside has somewhere to go, then re-bleed it.
  16. It was supposed to be the opposite of the Chilled Out one, but I couldn't think of how to word it.
  17. Yeh that'll be Ryan, he's always getting on at me because he thinks I'm a nerd. I'm not addicted to TF at all, I've just got a high post-count because I post a lot, the reason being I work on computers, and I went to college for 2 years doing IT, so I'm rarely off the thing. At the moment I'm on during the day because I've got no bike to ride and it's driving me mad. I couldn't get really good at all, I'm not naturally gifted like a lot of riders. I could get a lot better but I ride for fun, not to prove a point. When I'm busy I don't ride, and I get fat. Like the last 6 months when I've been finishing off my college course and getting the highest grade I could, then I got a lot of work from work, and now I'm practising web design all the time because I'm going freelance while I'm at uni. As soon as my bikes together I'll be riding as often as I can.
  18. Links please. These are the catagories I think will stay, others may be added and I'm not sure about some of them. I want to keep the amount of videos down really because if theres 30 odd videos in the thread, not many people will bother watching them all before voting... Best Chilled Out Atmosphere Best With A Metal Track Best TGS Best Stock Best Mod Best 24" Best Mixture Of Bikes Best Natty Best Motivational I reckon that the best way to do it is one catagory at a time though. Remember to give links to your nominations please.
  19. Compression ignition. I'm a fat b*****d at the moment.
  20. This is true, my mate had an 06 T-Bird and it was garbage, you can get an 04-07 T-Pro for £200 and it would be a much, much better bike.
  21. That was a f**king good come back, congrats.
  22. See how many you can force inside Josh Lyd?
  23. You can either file it out or use a milling machine. Have you single walled it already? Saves more weight and takes less time.
  24. You should know that Mat, look at your hair...
  25. Read the thread Mat you penis...
