  1. hey all,

    after about 5 minutes of riding, when i push down on the cranks, i can hear a creaking sound coming from that area.

    does anyone know what is causing the problem and what can be done to solve it?

    thanks

  2. I think everyone was a bit wonky to start with. You'll soon sort it out though - "practice, practice, practice"

    Are you getting in to the hop from an endo and then rocking backwards or are you pedal kicking to the back wheel?

    yer im starting with an endo.

    i went out practicing today and fount letting go of the front brake while pulling up realy helped.

    thanks for all the advice

  3. Hey All,

    Im in the middle of creating a new website though am a bit stuck for content.

    What type of things would you like to see / read about?

    What colour schemes would work (im thinking black background with bits of red + white)?

    thanks

    p.s. if anyone else has a website they would like me to put in the libnks section just say so below

  4. I would actually say bike trials have played a big part in the evolution of mototrials.

    The way the top riders ride a mototrials bike is now very much alike how a pedal trials bike is ridden.

    Also, many mototrials riders started off riding bike trials. For examle 2007 world trials champion Antonio Bou And former world trials rider Marc Colomer (who only first got on a motobike at the age of 16).

  5. And you think you will get validated? Spelling is all wrong and your grammer isnt too good.

    Wasnt really any need to post it if it wasnt real trials. But well done for trying buddy. But i think the hops,gaps is abit too extravagant as you didnt seem to be doing that well, and you wont be doing stuff like that for months yet so just stick with the stuff you know mate!

    The video was made sometime in the summer and i have been practicing alot recently.

    am able to do 3 hops on the backwheel (stationary), hop onto a car tyre and have managed a small gap.

    thanks for looking

  6. Hey,

    At the moment i am having problems with my brakes (v-brakes) on my mission prodigy.

    Every time i lean back with them on (getting into the position to hop) they fail to work and the bike ends up going backwards.

    Does anyone know what i can do to them to make them better?

    thanks

  7. Hey All,

    I am hopefully soon going to be purchasing a set of disk brakes for my Mission Prodigy (MOD) but have a few doubts.

    Firstly I am not sure whether they would fit onto the standard rim + forks.

    What Would be the best set to by for around 50 - 70 pounds? - Just the front

    Has anyone ever added disk brakes to a Prodigy before?

    Thanks for all the help

  8. hey all,

    after reading the step by step guide on the trashzen website i have been attempting to bunnyhop.

    After gaining some speed i lean back to get the front off the ground though it does not come high enough for me to perform a decent sized hop.

    Does anyone have any tips on how i can get the front higher without pedaling?

    thanks
