haha very different from most videos ive seen so far, that car bit was funny

haha probably but if i do it right then imo they look amazing http://www.robot-models.com/ some brilliant examples on there

Thanks for all your replys and regarding the finish i was thinking let it all rust then strip the rust off the outside and leave it on the inside bits then treat the outside to stay rust free, whatcha think?

need 8 more people....

Your built massive though and don't you like go the gym everyday?

depends what you want it for but personally i cant stand 24's and as it happens i happen to have a t-rex for sale... fancy that?!

you've posted the wheel you've got a receipt and soon you'll have the money, unfortunately as the receipt doesn't say wheel or whatever it might be hard to prove hat the receipt is actually from this, but if he hasn't genuinely received the wheel i wouldn't consider it as your fault at all unless he specifically asked for 1st class recorded. But at the end of the day you've posted the wheel off and you should be entitled to the money and the worst that could happen is you get a little negative feedback. sorry if it doesn't make sense i'm tired...

yeah stock would probably feel more natural and i've never seen a stock with a bashplate only rings you'd have to drill the frame or something to get a bash on a stock me tinks, unless there's some foreign make... and a recommended bike would depend on what style of riding your into and budget, imo if your a beginner look at onza, to me there's no other beginner bike than onza but for the same price as a brand new onza you could buy a second hand bike off here when you get validated so it depends what you want new or used then what style of riding or a certain geo you favour... but then if you get along with the monty okay stay with it untill it's dead...

can someone point me in the direction of these vids? sound quite good but unfortunately im too much of a noob to know of almost anything in this thread, as far back as i can go is watching TRA's vid's and wanting a go so bad i took the seat of my asda bike i remember when static gaps where rare they where all like massive run ups and riding along rails. haha changed a bit in the past years i know of

that looks proper lush imo, however i'm not big on the back end of the frame the chainstays look out of place with the downtube but it's how it rides and how you like it

arrrrrrrr nasty. looks like a carrot though... it's storks like these that really make you think whether trials is a sport you want to pursue...

i got 40 seconds in and had to stop it.... because i need to know what song that is! will watch the rest in a sec looks ace edit- read the topic so i know it's Patrick & Eugene - Dont Stop anyone know where to download from my soulseek's stopped working

you ride like a bmxer with not one single trials specific move, you have you bike set up like a bmxer with no front brake, so why oh why do you have a trials bike?! it's okay for a change but if you can't actually do any static moves and this vid is all the moves you have to offer then get a god damn bmx

if your not allowed to grind it, tar up!

my teacher has a beta and is thinking about buying my t-rex, lmao, and my other teacher rides downhill so i think they'd get it i just want small projects to do that'll keep me interested for 2 years

say for example if you sponsored me you'd have trials moto trials enduro covered since i'm at almost every wor event (like as many as i can afford) at pritty much every moto trials week in week out with practice's inbetween, you'd have stickers on my dads van and his bike's so you've got offroad and onroad covered plus if i ever did get sponsored i'd probably die laughing and come back as ghost to brag about it. so then you've got north wales and the northwest covered haha

i get distracted dead easy and loose concentration so if it doesn't interest me i won't want to work on it for 2 years notice how all my ideas where cnc stuff? lol

yeah i think i saw it, sprayed it red? i think i'm gonna go for the smaller projects that way i don't waste as much time and effort if i mess up and then i can submit for grading whatever i like/prefer but with my teacher being a trials rider and i have his beta in my shed i dont think he'll be too hasty with the red pen i'd like to do something different to whats already been done, so just making a booster with my name in it isn't as creative as i'd like but nothings original anymore i suppose we just have to modify it slightly, anyone got any ideas on how to improve a bike part that could be done?

hey i go back school on wednesday and i've got a couple of things i'd love to do but i realize i wouldn't be able to and get a decent mark, it'd be nice to make a bike frame but i don't fancy the ally welding my next idea was a weird bike but i doubt i'd have time to do it, so i thought i'd do several little jobs but make three a priority to tart up dead nice and use the rest of the time abusing the cnc machine whilst halving my orders to tarty. it has to be something related to bikes push bike or motorbikes but if it's not i'll probably loose interest in it, any one got any ideas or advice or anything to help me achieve a better grade? also do you think i'd be able to send them off to be anodized? if so where and how much are we looking at? UPDATE---------- decided to make a scrap metal sculpture and am at the research stage just need a few people to fill a questionnaire in will make a new post with the questions though

could be, but not and enduro's where it's at though give it ago

hehe get someone who rides mod, stock, moto trials, enduro, and frequently has to wash his dad's bikes off... (like me) i'd love to be able to say i was sponsered at anything really, but unfortunatly nothing comes easy anyway, tell us more about this cleaning product...

yeah i've gotta say i agree with krisboats on this one but on the flip side i see your point of view and motivation for wanting to do it, but imo sponser an enduro rider, i could really do with a decent cleaning product for my yz just came in from washing in and it's not as clean as i'd like but it's hard if you leave it for a day without cleaning.

whats a helmet going to do that high up? (4 and 6) sick riding though. proper madness

edit- beaten.
