  1. I was surprised too at his results at UCI comps but he has a lot of potential
  2. Tanel Välja: We were looking to stay between 35-40 EUR.The new iterations will look nicer, but will keep with the initial idea . The Asymmetric idea looks good in my opinion, but Märt(TMKS88) convinced me that we need a slightly more "regular" booster aswell, so we are working on one this weekend. Yes, the design has been FEA tested to make sure we remove weight but not any stiffness/strength Also the test rider of that V brake booster is very happy with it. He has been riding with it since march.
  3. I have ridden dual V brakes for years and also noticed that its almost impossible to get any V brake boosters. I was using an old Echo one which was very heavy though.
  4. Hey guys, We're starting up a small company that specializes in making quality parts for the biketrials scene. We planned to start our production run in August with a few boosters, a bashring(with a quick release system) and a few other things. Below you can find some pcitures of the boosters we made for testing purposes - we would love some feedback and suggestions on the look and feel. In case you are wondering why they are asymmetric - it's to reduce overall flex that might happen from bolts moving slightly in their respective slots. The new versions will be 10mm thick with pockets 9mm deep. Current versions are 6mm thick. We've been talking with Tartybikes and we decided to offer our products to them first - provided that you guys like them . So please, let us know what you think of the boosters here, it is very much appreciated. Märt Märtson and Tanel Välja
  5. he was junior world champ too I think but in elite he has been once http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UCI_Mountain_Bike_%26_Trials_World_Championships_%E2%80%93_Men%27s_trials,_26_inch
  6. he was in 2003 and hopefully will be again
  7. more girls are needed in trials actually imo there was 2 big reasons why trials didnt get to the olympics 2 sets of rules biu and uci and not enough girls riding - currently the girls are good but not as good as they could be, men are pushing the limits so far in comps but women are not if we look at other sports then the gap between men and women isnt that huge so we need a girl who would push the limits that the others would have to follow just like gilles coustellier did some years ago
  8. do you have any more info about the new ones? when will they be available and what did they change? what frame are you riding now dave?
  9. found it from vincents blog http://www.photobysergio.fr/x-trial-bercy-demo-vtt.html i fell off the chair at 4.55-5.00..... and vincents blog if anyone wants to read http://wizee.fr/vincenthermance/
  10. Nicolas Vuillermot its always awesome to see the pros training
  11. he is just happy and doesnt care what others think does any top athlete have fun? they wouldnt be doing if they wouldnt love it and Giaco is doing tons of technical small moves, I dont know why the video editor didnt put them in watch Giacos DVD to see small techy lines anyway these kind of videos (no music, just huge moves) are perfect for learning and seeing the limits its like any other sport, training videos are quite boring unless youre trying to learn something from there (for example there isnt many people who watch soccer training videos but tons of people watch it when 2 teams are competing) entertaining part is the competitions
  12. one of my all time favourites
  13. when you do drops and gaps always move on the edge so that your tire is a bit over the corner this way your tire wont slip
  14. bike looks good! needs better pictures though hows the frame?

  16. looks amazing! this is your 2nd bike? how do you compare the XL to ZHI? im thinking about getting the zhi as it is so cheap
  17. some clips from this year
  18. that sucks.... ive heard some stories that russain cycling union has so much money that they dont know what to do with it but it seems like things change...
  19. thanks! cant wait for part2 but do you know why werent the russian top riders there this year?
  20. thanks! will there be videos of other riders too?
  21. that is very impressive! also very motivating time to ride!
  22. there was a short run up but still giaco did pedal up to rear vincent pedal up to front benito also dabbed this (on one lap, maybe he tried it on the 2nd, not sure) and comas pedal upped to rear
  23. everything looks so easy and small in video in real life it was a lot more impressive thanks for the vid!
  24. ive seen someone do over 5m drop i think it was a spanish rider on a 20" bike imo it was an official record attempt but I could be wrong
