  3. Recommended Sale Price

    in Trials Chat

    Posted

    Hey guys, I'm looking to sell my Rockman slate II at some point but i'm really not sure what price i should be sticking it up for, would be great if you could help. I've not ridden for a year since I burnt my foot and got a new job, everything works fine and frame is basically new (hardly ridden). Only a couple small scratches apart from the cranks are fairly done in as you'd expect. I dont really know what bikes of this spec sell for anymore so some help would be fantastic. Cheers guys.

    This is not a sale post, I need to find a sale price only :D cheers fella's.

    The specs of the bike are as follows;



    • Slate 2 frame Limited Edition
    • Rockman forks
    • Try-all stem
    • Rockman Bars
    • Echo TR hubs
    • Carbon protector
    • HS33 rear + metal backings
    • Schwalbe tyres, good amount of tread
    • Onza BB
    • Speedrace Cranks
    • Tensile 72 click freewheel
    • No pedals xD
    • BB7 front
    • Onza pro front rim
    • Try-all rear - both have no dents or flat spots and run true

    What is that? Explain please!

    Nevermind, I'll just wait until Onza get their new stock frames out.

    My freewheel fits fine without any spacers on the crappy onza BB lol just get a super thin bash ring on there. Lovely frame solid as anything so far i've not bashed it on anything apart from my chain stays so i cant really review it much for you. I am 6ft 2inch and it fits perfectly.

  7. Pad Reviews

    Pads: Kenny Belaey TNN

    Time used: 1 week

    Rim used: Tryall Hole

    Grind: Yes

    Brake used: HS33

    Went from rockman blues to the Kenny Belaey pads which are unbelievable, i cant describe how good they are. Nice sharp bite and tons of hold.

    I did a fresh grind on the rockmans blues and they just lacked bite and hold, i kind of always untrusted them for big gaps and natural, stuck the Belaey pads on the same grind and they are perfect, best pads i've ever used over the 5-6 i've ridden trials. Highly recommend.

    Quite loud 7/10 for loudness but i dont mind considering the performance.

    I feel really sorry for you for breaking your hand and such but that made me laugh so much, im sorry it was brilliant not just the crash it self but the aftermath of the whole situation with pedestrians just taking pictures ignorant to whats going on LOL.

    Good vid i liked it.

  15. Get Rid Of Vista Install Xp

    in Chit Chat

    Posted

    for example on my laptop to boot from cd i press F8 - boot drive options, which flashes up during bios, you should then be able to select your cd drive and it will load. From there just format your harddrive and install xp from fresh, you may want to download your network drivers in advance and put those onto cd as xp probably wont install wireless for you.

    Can cause a few problems if you havn't got another pc available.

    I sent you a pm also as i will get in trouble :D posting it here.

  23. Brake Booster To Fit A Pitbull

    in Trials Chat

    Posted

    my rear vee is super flexy, even with the built in booster, does anyone know the spacing of an 07 pitbull (the vee dapters are "straight" using the centre holes) and will a 4 bolt booster have enough clearance? will i need to modify my bolts?

    I don't know anything about vee's but im guessing you could just use one of these http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?product_id=13&category_id=106

    Also to find the spacing you can copy this simple method tarty have on this lovely picture and get a ruler. Big straight thing which measures stuff :blink:http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/images/large_mountmeasure.jpg

    Im not sure on the setup you have so i may be wrong. Hope this helps anyway.

  24. Sponsor

    in Trials Chat

    well why does everyone else want to be sponsored ? and yes free stuff, im 14, have no money, getting good and serious about biking and have no money to by parts that i have broke.

    I had a job at 13, fixed computers, mowed lawns, sucked &%$£ all to make money for my bike parts. Do kids just want free stuff for minimal effort these days or am i just getting old ? :huh:

    Either way depending who you get sponsored by E.G. lets say by Monster, you will probably only get free Drinks and stickers lol. Why don't you try asking your local bike shops if they would sponsor you with hoodies and cheaper parts to start with, but it would probably help if you took part in competitions and other events as you would be a form of advertising. Hence the reason why people sponsor you.

    Don't expect a free bike you won't get very far if you do.
