hi are 2- bolt boosters meant for magura's? i want to get a light booster for the front brake, are 2 bolts just small versions compare to the 4 or do they fit adapted vee brake or some crazy? cheers
-
yeah i no what you mean, you need a lot of movement to carry out any moves and thats why i asked if anyone found a back protecter stronger enough and flexible enough to work with trials, guess i had better not fall off. ha cheers everyone
-
hey just wondering if anyone is as paranoid as me when it comes to coming off the back, and slaming they back in. i've had problems with my back already and have come off once before, lucky on dirt not an edge of a wall or anything. just looking for a little one to come up to my shoulder blades and down to cover my tail bone. cheers harry

looks f**king nice. can anyone find an english site that sells these helmets, spent about half an hour on it and got nothing ( cheers

Just bled my rear brake for the first time. at first it looked bad but got the combination of opening, pumping and locking the system down after a few tries. but got it sorted. Just had to repeat the process about 5-6 times (going from one bleed bolt to other) but in the end i have a water filled sharp non-lazy brake. (i used the bucket/bath method) Cheers Harry

hey i've been out riding loads, apart from the last couple of days due to snow. Got a couple of lite up nooby spots in ipswich, which is nice. been riding them at 11 at night after finishing work, its good cause ur still bussing for work.
-
hey all i've tried adjusting the rear maggie so much to fix this, i've come to the conclusion that one of the pistons doesn't return fully but does have room to move fully(i can push it back manually) its not always the same size either? Which means that to get the bite i like and the movement of the lever one pad is always rubbing and this is getting annoying too say the least. any ideas would be grateful harry
-
Cheers people worked perfectly and its lovely!! its creeking a little but nothing major, any way to stop that? anti cease shit? or just keep tightening
-
yeah, its a must, "saying that i haven't got one" but wouldn't take much of a drop to split your head while riding street. i gonna get one now thou, just started to get the hang of lurches and drop offs i can't find one either thou, don't want a skater lid thou, anyone?
-
cheers i'll remember that i just tried to order but is wasn't processing is tarty bikes down?
-
yeah thought so, i like to make sure cheers
-
sweet cheers and do you need a lock nut on the other size of the sprocket? closest the BB, i will go ahead, its been taking the piss really had so many problems!
-
hey i need some advice with a crank set, mines shit at the moment, onza crank, crapy bent bashring,which has bent the sprocket and forcing it into the frame!!! so i'm gonna get some new stuff, not much cash 75-80 no more, i think i'm gonna try 18tooth on the front, i found a few things on tarty what do you think: http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?id=156 http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?id=179 http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?id=32 will these all work together, i'm running rear freewheel, and a square tapered BB, and does the bashring just clamp in between the sprocket? does it need a lock nut on the othr end? Btw all to go on a T-tex thanks very much, harry
-
I'm probably just gonna go for Maggy's as the new Echo brakes cost over twice as much!! Seems like a good deal, got a front wheel off him too. I'll keep you posted
-
19 is when i first got me first trials bike. been riding bikes since i was 5 thou,
-
my front 22tooth sprocket is now bent and so need a new one, was wondering what you dudes use? for ideas i've only riden that bike for about 6-7 hours too! what a piss take. DON't Use SUPER CYCLES, i've had so much trouble with em
-
What?@? u on, sorry i'm not up to speed with the trials talk
-
yeah i thought that might be the case, weren't beening to bitchy i'm gonna give it a go, i managed to get a few curves out of it
-
yeah thats what i had to do, but i hadn't thought it though completely haha so was tighening the spokes that needed loosing and loosing the ones that need tightening, anyways got it sorted to some degree. but found that some of the nipples were different sizes! but on the same wheel which seems a little odd?? also i guess its alright to just loosen every spoke completely and start again isn't it? seems the "30 years experienced wheel builder at Super Cycles" can't really cut it anymore. ha does anyone else use Onza Full Fat Rims? had any problems>? Cheers Harry
-
Supercycles, don't no if he even knows how to tighen a wheel yeah gonna give it a go my self, gotta learn one day and might as well start now Cheers for the help harry
-
hey Need help with my back rim, i've just brought a Onza T-rex and have already sent both rims back due to the spokes being loose. so i have just got them back today but i took it for a ride this morning and its happened again already! the spokes are a little loose and theres a small buckle in the back rim!! so is it just me and my shit riding or what. i've only just started really but i don't think i'm hurting them too much, and surely Onza Full Fat Rim and take a little beating?? just after some ideas on what to do?? learn to adjust it myself or what? thanks very much Harry

Hey i've been suffering from lower back pain for a while before i even started trials properly, so i got an physio app, and she said it was mainly my posture, not sitting straight at the computer and stupid stuff, but said that to stretch ur back before doing anything active and then again when you finish. Like Eg, Touching finger to toes Bending back standing up laying on the floor and bring your knees to your chest one at a time and then both together. tensing your pelvic muscles (what you do when you are trying to stop pissing yourself) ha this has been helping me!
-
Yeah i no, i'm not brilliant so messing about on small 2-3 foot legdes, but i travel to norwich reguarly(going to see biffy clyro tonight), i'll keep my eyes out for other riders, but well up for a ride in norwich when i'm used to the T-rex. Try riding on top of the Mall in the city center, few nice gaps and stuff should be getting my T-rex back on the road today, if the f**king delivery driver turns up!!!! Harry Yeah organize a Ride dude claton isn't far from me
-
hey everyone, I ride in Ipswich, as much as possible. only started so if anyone can show us stuff if your riding any where near would be cool meeting up? Anyone else? Harry
