  6. i dont really make excuses, if i dont think i can make it, i wont go for it. simple. whether thats fear getting to me or not, its simple. im getting older now, i dont have the balls i used to have, also uni is stopping me riding quite as much as i could do. simple really ill be back

  8. another vote for garage here?! its the way forward
  9. if it was authentic there would be a camel toe!
  10. or any of their components for that matter!? hmmm, im just not sure they can compete in the brake / disc markets or hubs when the competition (trials wise) is so good. we shall see
  11. cough - horizontal dropouts. = mint
  12. what would that be joe? follow trends haha only messing
  13. cinematography i think steve. here is my opinion......... i enjoyed the dvd from a video makers point of view. the filming was good, the editing was good, the angles were good. so i liked it from here. i liked the concept behind the video, it was a compilation of the summer you had, going on rides, filming, filming yourself, interviews etc....this was excellent, and was fun to watch because there was nothing serious about it. However, i did not enjoy the riding, other than nick goddards section. (the boy is too technical) im a fan of street riding vids, the likes of phil feeny, boon etc, BUT the whole video was more orientated to this, i felt as if you had mostly put this in the dvd because its a current trend on the forum at the moment (more likely to sell dvd's). so thats my opinion. certain matters i liked, others i didnt. thanks for producing it though jonny.
  14. i wouldnt class myself as an inch grabber.? yes i tap gap sidehop, but i do mixtures of things, but i dont count the inches i make mr joe when i meet u ill spank u. possibly in a kinky way haha. but i dont know i just think the whole topic of being an inch-grabber rider (as simon puts it) is really boring, thats how people ride. so what. maybe those that do more stuff cant go as big, so they mix it up a little.?? i mix it up as well, just cos i dont do spins and shit doesnt make my riding boring in my opinion.
  15. that is fun to somepeople simon? so if thats what they found fun would you ride with them? will you stop bringing up this inch wanting style dig at people, in fact not you personally. everyone. its boring me now
  16. maybe put a topic in forsale/wanted to try and swap it with someone?
  17. why do you all bring up that as onza boy mark puts it TGS (tap gap sidehop), ur all saying trials is about having fun, but people are saying TGS is boring and blah. THAT IS WHAT SOME PEOPLE ENJOY DOING FOR FUN. i dont mean to be rude, but has anyone actually watched any of damons vids properly or tunnis or CLS's, and realised what they can do on a bike is amazing? yes its TGS riding, but nevertheless amazing. have u watched boon riding in his videos? how do you spin so easily? how does he manuel so and gap so smooth? its amazing. yes is bmx on a mtb almost, with some trials added in, but nevertheless amazing. ride how the fecking hell you want to ride and stop complaining about boring riding? sometimes i do think that many say that its boring because a) trying to be individual and being slightly jealous? this topic is shit
  18. deng makes the new 07 frames in 135mm spacing though. so whats the problem? go on www.tartybikes.co.uk and its there, available for everyones pleasure damon and chris dont own 116 horizontal dropout frames? and they havent experienced it. Maybe tunnis, but the difference is that the power they put through is so much different. the one problem i have with the adamant hubs is 5mm bolts. they need to be big monsters like king or profile. get an 8mm allen key in there and boooooomf. wont be a problem could always take a look at the bodge i did for horizontal dropouts? in the bikes pics forum
  19. my opinion is that (yes im sponsored by deng) dengs frames are light, but durable, older models were not, but now they are. you dont see many of the 05+ models breaking (without normal circumstances) and yet they are still really light. i just dont think steel is benficial for trials. i mean think about it, i dont see how koxx sell XTP's and most of their frames at that price when deng is selling at almost half of some of the prices. im sorry, but steel is not for trials frames. *now bmx, requires steel because the amount of abuse in comparison and especially with the speed differences requires stronger frames
