  1. Easily the most fluid 20in mod riding vid ive ever seen. lovely flicks and spins although a bit repetitive at times. awesome rollback control skills

    Off The Rails

    The first couple of clips were pretty sub standard of your skills , but the latter stuff was shear class and originality . the best clips were the close up shot of you hopping and stalling for absolutely ages on that blue post (half the width of the tyre tread was hanging off the post amazing balance or were you leaning your upper body part on something the camera doesnt show?), simply sick. and the 180 hop to gap on those low curved railings . for a minute there after the gap, i thought you would have gapped backwards then forwards again then dismount off, that would have been a really sick multiple combo move . how the hell do you ride with that wobble looking front wheel?
  3. Very nice, good colour coordinations.
  4. Thats rubbish, they look more like 2ins of travel judging by the pic . top uk street/dirt jumper Lance McDermont (regularly seen in mbuk magazine) runs his DJ1 forks at a very stiff 100mm of travel and they look no where near as high as yours . like i said it that much travel makes it looks sh*te . post that on a dedicated street forum and everyone will slag your rig off silly :$ . but dont take my word for it....forum member (TheMunn) flow bike looks way better with the travel set up. Ps, the numbers of years youve been riding bikes is totally irrelevant to how much bike knowledge and advise youve acquired within that time.
  5. It never entered my head that the original Trials Noir was about whom does the biggest moves, and going big isnt such a bad thing because after all that was the motivation of most riders back then where as TODAY, its more about technically ability and multiple links/moves. that i assume would be the motivation for Trials Noir 2 vid if it ever came into fruitition/reality. Would be cool to see the likes of Neil & Damon for their big monsterous moves, Matt.B (the boon) & Danny Mccaskill for their fluid style, Waynio, Danny Butler, Ben Savage on ripping up natural terrain, and of course the final finale of Akrigg with his new brakeless style (he does one brakesless move in Earthed4 dvd). We need to put the word out to make this happen....
  6. How ridiculous is that story, a man having sex with a bike. that means Terry Adams youtube video clip of him sleeping with his bmx should be banned because it demostrates sexual practice.
  7. Ok thanks. is it fair to say that well never see a Trials Noir 2 in future? (featuring the current top uk riders like your good self)

    Tensiles!

    Hmm, id second that opinion. either way, if you stress alu enough over a long period of time its gonna snap eventually. hmm, i wonder what Onza does with the broken parts, do they get re-cycled somehow, after all alu does go through a liquid molding process to form the end product material bike part..just guessing!
  9. As the above states, where can i get this vid from? im just want something to watch over the coming winter months, plus it will be a very long time before we see another equally awesome vid with the finest collection of uk riders on it. ps, what happen to that guy whom posted on this forum a few months back that he had owned a professional HD camcorder and wanted to vid on the uks best current riders? did that become a reality or was he just wasting everyones time? is Trials Noir 2 in the works, or in discussion of happening?
  10. Absolutely sh*te editing . looks like pop music clip than a trials clip . Less of that pop video editing crap, and more riding content please.

    Jack Meek Clips

    What was Jack doing in Bristol? hes certainly riding better than his segment in Trials is Dead dvd.

    Bail :p

    you should send it to Youve been frame tv show, you might be lucky enough to get £250 for that clip.

    Tensiles!

    Assuming you snapped them before the warranty period, you should get a no-questions-asked free replacement. though judging by the condition of your cranks, i imagine youve given them plenty of right-footed trials anger management. never the less, that is still a dangerous situation for a bike part to fail...second only to a snapped chain.
  14. Never mind the poor vid quality, some original stuff going on there from a trials living legend
  15. Absolutely nuts! though i im sure there are a few of us on this forum whom appreciate the skills in bmx, i just think you should have posted this on the bmx forum. this kinda stuff will only make the loose-canon members think twice about riding trials.
  16. What the fcuk! Deng has taken the GU 20 and 26in frames just a litte too far. cant imagine what radical designs hes gonna come up with the 2008 Adamant A1, A2, & A3 though Neil Tunnicliffe may have some knowledgeable input on that front.
  17. Your right there dude, life IS too short to complain.
  18. if they leak from the slave cylinders, then its pretty much terminal. though the chances of that happening are very very remote.
  19. Leeson 24in no question.
  20. Er why would the makers of JOB Magnesium trials frames wanna change the geometry of their debut 1st generation frames? and why show a cgi pic of a frame that isnt available? better off showing the frames for real...if they plan to exist.
  21. Lazy arse Ben cant be arsed to update this post that Teaser 5 of Crux is now available for view. Ryan Leech attempting a very thin chain ride line very sick skills indeed.
  22. Oh come on dude, you dont have to be a rocket-scientist to know exactly what goes on behind the commerce scenes of the bike industry. a few extra mm of molded alu in a crank arm doesnt really justify that kind of ridiculous price inflation. its all relative bull. if what you say is true, then sports giants NIKE could charge more for the same shoe that is 3-4 shoes sizes bigger because more material is used to construct that bigger shoe size. bike frame building businesses can charge more for an 18in frame as opposed to an 14in frame because more tubing is used to construct the same identical frame design...like i say, its all relative stealth charging bull to rip off custommers and only the minority few of us are wise to this going on.
  23. Actually, i was doing a search on that last night at work and found an american company that sells 3AL Titanium tubing (think there is something on Ebay type in steel tubing) and its not as expensive as everyone makes out. frame building businesses simply charge xxX AMOUNT for the total overheads package of the frame(as much as 500% more than the actual cost). if i find more specific stuff, ill edited it on here.
  24. If this project gets the go ahead and gets built, lets us know when they plan to officially open it so that we can all gatecrash this park.
