    in Beginners Trials Chat

    Posted

    Well i have been on here for a bit now but have not introduced my self so here i go.

    My name is Steve and i am from Waterlooville near Portsmouth.

    I am married with a 3 and a half week old son who i love very much.

    The bike i ride is a zoo python 05 with all the onza t-pro 05 parts but i am hoping to up grade it all.

    I have not been riding trials for over 2years now due to very bad illness and a op on my knee last week

    but now i am getting it all under control i am hoping to get back out on my bike as soon as i can.

    Hope this is a good intro for you lot but if you want to know any more about me all you have to do is ask

    i don't bite lol

    Thanks Steve

    Hi guys

    Post the funnist think you have done or seen when riding trials.

    e.g Back about 2years ago i was doing a small wall gap (went fine) Then some chav on his bike came along and keeps saying im rubbis and he could do better.

    So i told him go on show me hr tryed it but broke his are.

    I know its not really that funny but it was because i was just a chav on a old bike showing of for his mates lol.

    Hope all yours will be better than mine.

    Thanks Steve

    Hi help needed.

    or an Echo fixed hub?

    But i am not really to shore whitch will be the best one as i am a bit hard on the back wheel as still larning.

    O any what is the best length 116mm or 135mm on a MOD bike?

    Thanks Steve

  8. Trialtech Square-holed Front 20"

    in Beginners Trials Chat

    Posted

    The Echo rims are known for being strong where as the Trial tech rims have only just come out,

    I recently just bought a new front wheel, should be coming tomorrow, I decided do go with the Trial tech square holed rim.

    This was mainly because I wanted a pretty lightweight front wheel, the 20" Echo rim weighs in at 500g compared to the Trial tech at 394g, that’s an extra 106g of unnecessary weight, and it’s for a front wheel so it’s not going to take a major bashing.

    I personally think that the Trial tech rims look at lot classier and are quite unique compared to most trials rims, but each to there own...

    Also between the Echo and Trial Tech rims there is only 1mm difference in width-Echo being 40mm and Trial Tech at 39mm- so there's not a massive comparison there.

    If I were you I would go with the Trial Tech, if my wheel comes tomorrow I will give my verdict after using it.

    Cheers,

    Adam.

    I m more leading to getting the Trial Tech as i was thinking that i spend more time on the back wheel so would like to have the front end nice and light

    plus i am liking the square holes which to me looks better the the auther holes out.

    Steve

    Looking forword to your verdict Adam (what col you get)

  14. New Frame

    in Beginners Trials Chat

    Posted

    Well, on your profile it says you're 22 so I am guessing you're quite tall so perhaps you might want a long frame 1040 or something.

    Just out of curiosity is your zoo frame long or short?

    Chris.

    Hi i am 22 but i am quit short as i am only 5ft4" tall lol

    My zoo is the short one and i thing if i get a frame which is to long i will find it hard to ride.

  15. Upgrading

    in Beginners Trials Chat

    Posted

    Hey dude, just to say i'd think twice before od'ing on all that green :P

    I find it's ok in small quantities, but when everything gets greened, it can look a bit garish.

    If you want to look at my 05 pitbull click the link in my sig, i have fluro green rims, and everything else either black or silver, and i reckon it looks pretty swish!

    Parts-wise, sounds fine! All those parts will last you ages :)

    [guote]

    Just had a look at your bike and it looks really nice.

    I think all i will get in green will be the wheels now but still get all the parts
