adam has given you a perfectly fine number, you shouldnt need another number after using that one. email isnt as useful as the phone, just give middleburn a shout on that number and they will see you right. cheers ben
-

-
have you got an isometric view of this or is it a 2d product? other than that its a decent attempt, i couldnt do any better, but i am slowly improving, we will see how it turns out!!! well done anyhow i would call it, piste de tarty ben

some decent riding mr tra, i understand your hand is still pretty injured but is fairly repetitive, you should maybe make video's shorter and not include so much stuff the same, also i understand weather over there is probably shite, and there-fore you dont have much place else to ride. but i think you know what i am getting at :( some very good riding like i said, i am impressed, although i wouldnt have reccomended riding with your wrist like that, and u sure it was only broken :S it looks like it was utterly mangled. ta ben

cheers for compliments guys, the forks are viz/koxx forks, they are quite nie although i reckon they'll be snapping soon, we will see :( yea blue rim is deffo overkill, although it was blue before frame and fork were, ill be getting something else sometime soon cheers ben
-
so here is my coust after my ideas, and recent purchases, thanks to dan hardman for the hub, tartybikes for the rim, looking forward to getting out on the bad boy for its first ride tonight, if the weather holds out. anyhow literally only been 5 mins since it was built. some ikkle piccys for you. any thoughts......... front of bike rear of bike, new wheel and rolhoff chain tensioner as you can see i like the colour blue, i think ill be getting a new front rim in black at sometime in the future, and some stickers are on the way. ta ben
-
im sure u can, just get a fixed cog that will sit nicely on the cranks, probably your best bet is to pm tartybikes just to see if it will or not. you coul dlock ur king out hahaahahahaaha ben

i have not really made too many mates through tf, but i live in aberdeen so its a tad different because im so far away from normality. met tarty and others from nottingham area when was down there earlier this month, everyone seemed super cool and were good to ride with, know all the hull people on here as thats were i am from they are all pretty cool, may have to meet up with a few people from the other scottish cities, bikerwatson div etc, have quite a list of msn'ers most of which i think i piss off or have bought/sold shit to/from anyway cheers ben

good point, change ur seatpost the correct way round, no need to follow any bmx trends, also u have plenty of clearance so its fine. my opinion, ben

check out the coustellier nottingham video, the big tap that one of the brothers does has a slight hill run up, see how they do it. but the other guys seem to be giving you the correct info, i found its much easier not to pause, and go slightly faster i found, when i did the coust wall tapping i found i had to run up faster, and the last pedal stroke has to be much stronger. anyhow, a small clip of that is on my movie at the end my movie of you could find the coustellier nottingham one, u might already have it. it depends really whether you are doing it on natty or on street cheers ben

hey guys all links are updated i have a trials-shack link now, cheers for tartybikes being previous host. much appreciated guys enjoy if u will i wouldnt mind some more comments though cheers ben

if you wish to be getting any spares for giro products you need to contact the distributors, who would be madison http://www.madisonb2b.co.uk (although im sure this is trade site) so http://www.ultimatepursuits.co.uk ( i think) is your best bet. EDIT, f**k THAT JUST USE THIS LINK http://www.ultimatepursuits.co.uk/page.asp...&SearchFor=Giro THAT WILL SORT YOU OUT ME THINKS try these two, if not go and ask your local bike shop im sure they will have what you require. alternatively just ride ur bike and dont worry its only a visor damage. cheers ben
-
dont think u should have been back riding it within 3 hours, probably not the cleverest of ideas i dont think. anyway its not my cup of tea, the blue somebody else did is a better colour although its your choice. cheer ben

superb brake, grippy in all conditions, best disc brake i have ever used, that is my honest opinion, i havent found any faults with it yet. as an opinion i wish hope would change the mini lever because its not the nicest to feel and if it gets scratched can be very painful anyway other than that its perfect, good for moves to front wheel and it looks cool cheers ben
-

as will longdon so well and truly puts it in train spotting......... i ride my bike because i dont rely on anyone else. if something goes wrong then its my fault there is no-where else to place the blame. thats the reason i prefer it to footie, cos i like to do my own thing and not have to rely on someone else to accomplish what i want. thats probably me in life as well. also its more fun than footy, there are less rules and restrictions than other games, hence why i ride my bike cheers ben
