  1. hopefully if i get my wheel back and all put back together in time i should be able to make it
  2. Hopefully will be able to make it either depending on hub for the stock or i will bring the mod
  3. your bike looks alrite mate rides nice aswell but still cant figure out why your bars seem really narrow but apart from that yeah spot on. Now just need to sort out some of the colour coding and the fact you keep getting punctures and it will br sweet Ben
  4. They look alright but personally i think they would look better in black or silver, but that is just me none the less they look alright
  5. Never anything that bad. You will always get a bit of pedal to shin. Went to Taunton the other night and tried a 43" sidehop, first attemp went wrong and ended up rolling off the wall head first, luckily had a helmet on and managing to roll out saved my head. Funny thing is as i thought it was safe to move my leg from the top of the wall, not realising that my bike was on top of it, the bike came down and landed o top of me. Was quite a funny one to watch though and managed to pull it off second time. lol
  6. I am not really that bothered but do prefer street. i just seem to find more interesting lines on street and things you would never think of when riding natural. Plus we haven't got that much natural in Weston Super Mare and it really depends on where the tide is as most of it is on the edge of the sea.
  7. I watched the clips, had seen a few of them before but couldn't watch all of it made me feel a litlle ill
  8. On my Mod I use a 22 14 and i find that a nice gear but again it is all down to personal preference El-Pelligrosso
  9. i would have to agree with gianttrials partly on this one. Obviously going to the gym helps but you are not going to see results straight away but again will help with the cardiovascular side of things. Personally I am not a good person to look at as i am a smoker (i know not healthy) but I enjoy riding trials as a past time and never really wanted to go pro. When i started riding about 8 - 9 years ago i was a proper little weed and would struggle in getting up the smallest of walls. Even now i am not bulging with muscles but i am happy with the way that i am progressing in trials and with muscle gain. I have used the gym for a while but i was finding that i was always aching the day after causing me not to ride. So in that respect going to the gym will help but you have got to remember that if you decide to do alot of weight training down the gym then muscles are going to hurt, which in turn might keep you from riding as much as you would like to. Also if you ain't riding that often then you ain't going to be practicing therefore not improving your technique and technique is vital. Gianttrials and myself ride together quite alot and we are better at different things such as taps, side hops and gaps. What I find helps aswell is that i never really compare myself to anyone else because everyone does have different techniques. Obviously watching pros will help with progression but can do alot of things that normal riders can't, which is why they are sponsored. They are paid to ride all the time and train so will always be fairly big build. Sorry for rambling on a bit but hope this helps El-Pelligrosso
