  1. fancy shutting the f**k up? yes i have a deal with deng, but ill quite happily tell you components that deng has made that are shite. there are products of his range just now that dont quite do the trick. but the amount of people on this forum who just slag him off because its the coolest thing to be doing at that very moment. deng does have some problems with some products, but right now he has some really strong and light stuff out there, and competitive prices generally.... and to those complaining about prices in other countries, im not totally sure on this but i think its probably because our economy is much stronger than most of the countries you talk about (poland particularly) and with our takes that the government charge the guys who sell them / import them have to put a mark up on it to make a living. best bet for you is to move i would say . like me
  2. seriously - DICK..... i dont know what ur basing your ideas on, but, deng makes top quality components. They work. some people have their troubles, but so does EVERY component with trials. king, hope, deng, koxx, monty, and all these other brands all have their problems. making components is progressive, dengs frames are probably the strongest aluminium frames available for trials. hardly any of the new ones break....onzas snap, montys snap, koxxs dent and snap, blah blah blah. some of dengs hubs are not quite up to scratch, but how long have hope been making hubs......f**kING AGES, how long have king been making hubs f**kING AGES, deng has made freehubs for two years maximum. stop following the slag off deng phase just because you can. back up your ideas will you
  3. you have to take a test? shit, i been drivin for four years now and still havent passed
  4. nah beau, i think you will find thats you. teasers are there to tease you into wanting something (generallly that you will buy) in the case of danny, his riding is alreet, music was terrible so didnt tease me. instead a better edited video without shitty music would have been better. and plus the difference between dannys riding and tunnis is fairly substantial dont you think. no offence danny
  5. and as mentioned in a previous post they are just generic cranks from a catalogue
  6. teasers only need making when you will be selling a video. this is to tease the audience into wanting to buy your video. i dont think you are selling your video so in the future dont make a teaser for a three minute long video. just make the video and release it. If u made the teaser cos you were bored then go ride instead. just my opinion
  7. ali, ur a street monkey and u know it. low rise ***.....stems that is...
  8. as long as you get a stem with the right angles on it to make it ride ok. the gu has higher bb, so u might need a stem to compromise. BUT, as long as your bar clamp size is 31.8mm it should fit a new stem fine dont ride what trials forum thinks is best, ride what you feel is best for you. my opinion anyway
  9. boulding is way more fun in my opinion. more challenging, BUT, i want to learn leading and then go from there. its all such good exercise. i prefer to use features only on the walls but sometimes thats nigh on impossible. doing 6's more often now, its great banter though
  10. a KHE fits fine and for everyones knowledge it fits a mod-stock 26" frame with a slight modification......, not sure about a mod, because of the space inbetween the spokes etc etc, i think it could work though......
  11. i got mine yesterday. its amazing, best tensioner i have used EVER, its sprung so you dont have o re-align the thing like you do with other tensioners on the market. superb, well worth the mooooolah
  12. Shilpa isnt famous in this country for anything. OH wait she is now, through exactly the same reason Jade is in this country........ just something to mix it up a little.
  13. he is..........probably a size 26" to 28" he is almost as skinny as you adam......awww im only kidding pudsea

  16. i hope the orders are getting chance to go out as well fatties...... some cool moves! how big is stanleys taparooni? although its on an angled pallet, which IS NOT COOL haha
  17. Ordered mine this morning, looks like a suberb design. be interested to see how well it withstands abuse. kingz products seem to be very good quality, and this design is what trials has been looking for IMO
  18. I LIED BEFORE I DO USE MY BACK BRAKE. I AM A FAT IM AFRAID
  19. your a beast though ali, i dont have the ability
  20. WHO CARES WHAT IT IS CALLED for hooks / japslaps / wall bangers / camel hooks, whatever you call it SPEED, CONFIDENCE, LACK OF BACK BRAKE PULLAGE, POWER UP MIN you have to go fast, so you carry your momentum, pulling the back break usually stops you dead so dont use it, be confident you can make it, and be a power house
  21. put some foam on the ends of the forks and drop outs, then get out on the trampoline min
  22. I have a theory,..... maybe they were just a construction contractor that was trying to help the ventilation of the house by trimming the bottom of the door, when they saw you coming they ran back to their van cos they werent using the proper tools? just a theory
  23. da worry son. it wasnt aimed at anyone in particular
