  1. Useless Topics/posts

    in Beginners Trials Chat

    Posted · Edited by Grant H

    In my understanding it's mostly people who make useless posts all the time that quick_spider is talking about.

    It'd be a really boring place if every post contributed to the topic. We'd probably have to use some kind of contributometer which would check our posts for pointless information.

    And yeah, warn can be taken away. I got some for posting porn, then it was taken away for posting links in reference posts turned.gif

    yeah i agree, needs some random nothingness to make it a bit more erm cheery? lol

    Your point being?- Prime example. Why did you make that post, other than to have a dig at Alley Rat?

    just wondering why he seemed to get away with it, sorry :( never knew he had his posting privaleges taken away...

  3. Grinding A Rim!

    Hi

    I've just bought 2 pairs of green Rock pads

    yeah theyr meant to be similar compound to zoo! pads.

    aparently any pads designed for a smooth rim won't in the wet

    grinds are good, people who like sharp grinds have rims that last more than a year...

    let alone if they ground it once every 6 months.

  13. What Front Brake For 20"bike

    i use a grind and plazmatic CRM's

    amazing brake setup...

    wouldnt change it.

    use the search function to find out about grinds...

    if you want to use smooth rims (probably best for someone not wanting to grind their rim) zoo! pads are meant to be some of the best

    I think a bb7 would be best, with a disc a bent wheel wont rub against the pads while a hs33 would, discs are harder to hit than your wheel, the stopping power of a hs33 will perhaps be better with the right pads but i find alot more can go wrong with these.

    :P except when you bend it...

    i always thought a disc would provide better power, maybe why many top riders use them?

    and by the way no i wont shut up :-

    Thats rich coming from ye boy. I think hes the coolest person ever grant, leave him alone, give the guy a chance. well for the 5th or 6th time anyway.

    i never say i know exactly whats right to use :P , he says that cranks that can take 15ft drops doing down hill will be fine for trials...

    point proven?

  18. My Video

    in Beginners Trials Chat

    Posted · Edited by Grant H

    :blink: you seem to ride err pretty heavily...

    as said before, ride more relaxed, i used to ride like that when i first started riding, and i found that having your arms straight was awkward...

    maybe try bringing the bike more towards you when on the back wheel? feels so much nicer.

    i found that most of the video was mostly of you bouncing around and well this made me lose interest quickly.

    just cut out most of the bouncing and it will look much better, and add more stuff in unless you want a short vid :turned:

    hope you dont take this post in a bad way because it was constructive criticism (Y)

    edit: sorry, off topic :-

  22. What Helmet?

    in Beginners Trials Chat

    Posted · Edited by Grant H

    pisspot helmets are good because they can be hit over and over again without needing to be placed.

    their cheap.

    they cover the vast majority of you head

    they dont have many ventilation holes in them so you generally get hot quicker.

    their also heavier.

    alot of riders use a xc style helmet as their light and keep ur head cool B)

    i always found their much more adustable than pisspot helmets.

    but your meant to replace your helmet if you hit/knock it.

    i have a cheapish xc style helmet because i think it looks better than a pisspot and it wont cost much to replace.

    it doesnt really matter what helmet you get, as long as it fits and protects you head
