    Wtd: Dj Ride Vids.

    Fancy TT them for the rest of us?
  2. One where the only standard parts are the lever body and the slave. In fact, one where there are no magura parts at all! RB lever. Deng slaves. Hope Hosing. Echo 4 bolt booster. Neco Yellows in heatsink backings. Echo Mounts. Inur's special radiator fluid bleed. (freezes at a very low temperature, makes the lever as light as water). Here is the spec of what my brothers brake will be once I finish it. Magura Lever, stop filed down, and the lump for the lever blade bolt filed off and replaced with a nut. Standard Magura Slaves. Supercycles Braided Hosing. £16 posted for the full brakes worth! Neco Yellows in plastic backings. Tensile Offset mounts. RB 4 bolt booster. Metal TPA. Water bleed. I am also toying with the idea of fitting a softer spring into the lever, to make it have an even lighter feel.
  3. It was really bad though, I missed a day of college at one point. I don't fancy just curling with my right arm for 6 weeks.
  4. Erm, I bought some weights after xmas, then did my routine for about 3/4 weeks, then my shoulder packed in and I decided to stop the weights so I could heal up and get riding again, that worked so now I am back, starting afresh. I have done my routine for 2 days now, I'm shagged, but I'll give it a few weeks and report back and see what changes need making.
  5. Be good at something, because everything I try and do, I'm never good at, only ever shite or mediocre.
  6. Bollocks, it's the same material. But the lite has less of it, making it weaker, but lighter. Still the strongest stiffest frame I have ever owned. I've had 3 Lites now, get a lite.

  8. I have to agree, most new videos are more boring than the classics. But we only remember the classics. so we'll remember the best 10 videos of each year, but not any of the average ones that are in the videos thread right now.

    Blacklist his ass, it's been longer than Joe now hasn't it?
  10. Yeh, but your an animal, and I'm a skinny fat little puff. I do have a pullup bar, and I have a bench for bench pressing and fly and shit.

    I have got the lites on for several resons. To save the carbons from bashage.The carbons feel a little too long.They have a little less rake than the lites, make the wheelbase feel shorter. I am going to shorten them when I get the chance and I'll try them again.

    It is scratched you big tit! It's getting on for 6 weeks old! Christ, feels like I've had it WELL longer than that... Already it's been to Matlock twice, Bracken rocks and the Buxton ride! I have been a busy bee.
  13. Nope, I'm all alone. That routine is one I made up from a few I got from the interweb, this is actually my first week of doing it, but it was clear I needed less reps and more weight on the shrugs.
  14. Just leave it there! It's not hurting anyone, or offending anyone! If that is what trials is for some riders, let them have their thread. It doesn't matter what the rest of us think, it's up to them. Close this thread, rename it the tuckage/sidehop thread and stop abusing them, if we let them have that thread, then we won't get pics up every 5 mins with, "look at my well tweaked side".
  15. Did Tuesdays routine today, for some of the shoulder excersises, it feels like it's just not doing anything, I get to a point where it isn't hurting, but it I have no more energy to lift the weight. I suppose it will get better. Dumbell Shrugs. 7.5kg each. 3x25. Barbell Shrugs. 15kg. 3x25. Sitting Press thing. 12.5kg. 3x10. (Failed on the last set at 8 reps. ) Lateral Raises. 4kg dumbells. 3x10. Bent Over Reverse Flys. 4kg Dumbells. 3x10.
  16. Don't ask! They'll just say no, and when they do, they will know that it was you who came back and knicked them! Just go round with CJ, and carry one each home, then go back, then get another 2. Repeat. Unless you could get a van or a trailer down there.
  17. They are also two of my favourite videos of all time, the lad on the Koxx XTP looks like he and the bike are the same thing! They are both being downloaded into my favourite vids folder.
  18. Well tucking isn't completely neccersary, whereas preloading for a gap, definately is.
  19. What Ben means is, what time will you be staying out until? Or, when would you like to leave Lancaster and go home?
  20. Me too. I write the way that is percieved, "correct", because I learnt to from a very early age, and I don't know how to do it any different, it just comes natural. When you look at my text messages, they read like an email because it is faster for me to write them out that way. I can always read Rob's posts, he isn't one of the pre-members that struggle to form any form of sentence, he can write in a way that everyone can understand, and that is what matters. Now can we leave Rob's spelling the f**k alone and comment on Danny's pictures! I know Krisboats well, and I know that he isn't having a crack or anything, he is simply saying that we should all make an effort to make our posts easily readable, which I'll admit is sometimes true with Rob's posts, they can be a bit tricky to read, but he gets the message across and we all get what he means! It used to be the case that people would get onto people for making posts that were actually impossible to read, now it's getting silly. As a wise old Butler once said to me, "It's a Trials Forum, not a f**king English forum!"
