  1. yeah, thats me The last location in the video is Portland Bill, its near Weymouth. I'm riding a Triton Deema. Thanks for the replys!!!
  2. Just under 4 minute video of me. It's 24mb and you can download it from the folder named Dan Jones. http://tv.isg.si/site/filebrowser/Glasseye.../GLASSEYETRIALS I hope you like it. Thanks to Andy, Nick M, Nick G, Adam B, Adam W, and Sean for filming.
  3. Wow this looks promising, good find!
  4. I have a spare one from a snapped lever, if you want it pm me your address.
  5. Thats a really nice vid, sweet riding.
  6. Looks cool but your missing bar plugs
  7. The frame retail price is £595.99 but they do not expect to sell many here. I'm not sure about the type of titanium, I'll try and find out. Thanks
  8. Thanks man, the geo is just the normal one, 1080 wheelbase, 385 chain stay length, +2 bottom bracket height. Before I say anything about it I have to tell you Luke behind Triton helped me out with this frame. I'm not good at explaing how it rides, I like it. I think it might feel nicer with 380mm chain stays. It rides differently to aluminium frames as it seems to have a flexy/springy feel.
  9. My Triton Deema 1080 for anyone who wants to see it.
  10. I 5'ved the first 3 sections, then got 3 dabs and 3 again, then James and Dave were talking about retiring because of the clay clogging everything. Looking at James' bike made me laugh he seemed to have 30inch wheels with the added mud and clay. I decided to try and finish anyway which seemed to spur them on to complete the course . I think Dave and I were the last to finish, and because we had taken so long the sections had started to dry so a big advantage for us. It must have taken the same amount of time to clean my bike as to ride the trial. I would do it again though...
  11. Love this video watched it a good few times now, good work.
  12. I live about 10 miles away from bournemouth, in bournemouth i think there are 5 riders and a lot more around the area. The videos on http://www.nbrtrials.co.uk/ are from the area, video number 10 is from bournemouth and poole.
  13. I hope that guys alright now. It's made me look at some things about first aid as i don't know a lot about it, I came across the bbc site http://www.bbc.co.uk/health/first_aid_action/ . I have gone over the bars and not put my hands out before, i'm not sure why it happens. Maybe it's because I didn't consider it could happen when doing something small. At the time I was trying to bunnyhop a 1 foot wooden post and never put much thought into doing it. The backwheel hit it as i was halfway across. I was lucky and only got a chipped tooth, cracked helmet and grazed face.
  14. I found using a brake cable is good to hold the mech in place, if you want to lock out the mech so it doesn't hit the frame there is a guide in the FAQ's section http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=7202
  15. excellent video, has that fun feel about it. Look forward to seeing the next video! Dan
  16. I'm looking for the 4 bolts for the Magura 4 bolt mounts. I found them on this site www.stagonset.co.uk and wasn't sure if they are ok to use as it says: "Presently we offer standard metric fasteners in A2 grade stainless steel, perfect for corrosion resistant applications and ideal for motoring and marine duties. If you are replacing ordinary steel bolts then please be aware that A2 stainless steel has a slightly lower tensile strength than standard 8.8 grade plain carbon steel bolts." Does anyone know if they will be strong enough or alternatively a good place to get the bolts from? Thanks Daniel.
  17. make sure its a dual ply maxxis. Can you get a picture of the top of the sidewalls of your rim?
  18. The IRC El Gato used to get easier to snake bite (puncture by the inner tube getting squashed on the rim edges) as they got older, not sure if its the same for your tyre? Maybe its just a combination of your rim and an old tyre now.
  19. The first time I watched this I didn't realize how you done that hook at 2:46, amazing riding...
  20. Bad boy vid, crazy riding.
  21. Nice video I like how you got up the pillar at 2:10, good stuff!
