Really thanks for all the replies, me was offered a halflink chain for 15 euros. so its cheap. ill stick with the kmc chains instead. Best regards and thanks for all the help! Jakob S.

Yes! I should be really strong as it's intended to use on a BMX were they grind on de sprocket and the chain itself. Does'n't sound like a good idea to me, but what i thought is: in trials you are putting alot of pressure on the chain so it streches etc. best regards, an thanks for the reply. Jakob S.

I definitely like the guy in the green shirt pulling op some manuals end go over the huge rock were he is is manualing towards. keep up the good vids!

Basicly everything you need is to see this: Vids say so much more then words..

thanks for the reply.i'll avoid it and instead i'll use a KMC cool chain

Hi Guys, Just a question. Settings up a new Zoo lynx from only new parts, just wanted to know if the KHE Half link chain with hollow pins is a good one for trials. Best Regards, Jakob S.

Hi, My name is Jakob Sebens, and i'm from Holland. I am 19 Years old and have currently 6 months of trials experience. I prefer to ride mod bikes because i feel safer and beacause of the are very manueverable. This is my bike story by so far: I've been riding trials for 4 months, and i really enjoyed it. Started out with an Monty 219 ALP with a steel frame. after swapping the frame with a Zoo Python 2005 it was nice riding trials. I decided to sell my trial when i was getting enthousiast by freeride. sold my trials bike and buyed a Specialized P2. After a few months i was really missing trials. So i decided to sell the Specialized P2 and buy a 26" trial. That was a Koxx XTP from 04. i rided it a few months and sold it because it just was not the bike i searched for. it was a trashbike. so i sold it. I buyed a Specialized Rockhopper and i still have that bike. Now i ordered a Zoo! Lynx brand new. Ordered a few parts from tarty bikes and ordered the rest from a dude here in Holland. Now in a few short weeks i'll get the Zoo! and i'm riding again. I have the video from Ryan Leech so it'll be quick learning. I hope to enjoy this forum as the rest does. I will post my new trials bike on the bike pictures topic when i finished. Best regards, Jakob Sebens
