The first batch of PLAZMATIC 18t front cogs have just arrived. They weigh in at 87grams, (digital scales), I’ve just screwed one on to a crank arm, no problem, thread location was very smooth. PM or mail me with any further questions. Ben.

I've not seen the DVD yet, but they are on the way from the factory. As soon as I've seen it I'll post a review. Ben.

Probably the finest 18T cogs... VIEW Machined from the high grade steel to the tightest tolerances. Produced in the USA. Thicker collar area produces flat surface to butt up against the bash ring/cranks arm to aid future removal. The cogs will be marketed under the PLAZMATIC brand name, along with their highly successful brake blocks. Other innovative quality parts will join the range soon. Price is still to be set, but it will be competitive, they should arrive in 2 – 3 weeks. Ben.

Its 99% natural for me, hardly ever ride street. I still have some footage up on my site which many have seen, but if your new to the forum you may find them worth a look. Ben.

Here are some shots taken at Chris Doney’s practice area last weekend by photographer Rob Kirkpatrick. Big thanks to Rob and Chris for the invite, I had great time. Ben. Ben's gallery

Mail me. Ben.

I'll be there for both days, looking forward to some good training. Ben.

I'd like to get back there soon, I will make some plans and post in the rides section. Ben.

Yes there will be a Trial at the World Cup, and the chance of more at other top events, but still in planning stage. Ben.

Hi, I was sent some footage of Septembers comp in Fort William, worth a look, I put it up as it came. Ben. HERE

Leaving for Bristol now, see you there. Ben.

You can find a few shots of me and James here. http://www.koxx.fr/index.php?lg=fr_FR&sec=trial&pg=gallery Ben.

TRY ALL tyres, £19.50 front - £29.50 rear is the normal price. They will wear quicker than some on the street, but extra grip is worth it. Ben.

I've got one comming to try, so test rides will be on offer if you see me about. The photograph in this post is of the production bike, all the others were on test with small mods. Wheel base is 1085, B.B. +10mm, 385mm chainstays. I like the colours, mine will be the same with one or two small changes and test parts. May ride it in London instead of the Kenny. Ben.

Had no mention of Xavi, did'nt even know he was going. I am riding in a team with James Hyland. Ben.

Big event, but as yet no rider list - who is going? Ben.

OK Craig, here's a bit of natural from last Sunday. Ben. Here

Hi, should be back on the North shore a lunch time. Ben.
