I've never seen this before. Good find and brilliant riding.

for my maggie on the rear am thinking of running it on a grind or tar
also what brake should i use on the front as i only have vee mounts and a non disk hub
As mentioned before go for something like koxx browns on a savage grind or reds on a medium grind. As for the front brake go for an avid SD7. They're amazing, i'm currently running one with plazmatic pads on a completly smooth rim and it's working fantastic.

You could buy some onza adapters that make it possible to run maggie pads. seen here: http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?pr...p;category_id=5
Then you could just experiment with different pads.

you might aswell buy a second hand one of hereI would just buy a second hand bike off here
But seen as he's not validated that might take some doing. So ebay it is if you're going to buy second hand.

no because the one i got now has better parts than that
and i want a 26"
Oh I thought you were new to trials. My bad. I havn't riden many 26" bikes so I can't give you my opinion.

Another vote for Hope Mono Trial 160 from me.

Onza is probably one of the best for starter bikes and seen as they've got their new range out that's cheap, i'd suggest going for this http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?pr...;category_id=10

Tensile.

Very nice looking bike. Ride it well
-
I've had both and there's hardly any difference between them other than the reds have slightly more bite to them but browns are a tiny bit better in wet conditions.
-
You have to make shure the pads are on the correct sides and that the sping is the right way up. Just try a few different combinations until you get the right one.
-
Get some insulation tape and put a load round the end of the grip nearest the center of the bars. This will mean the rest of the grip will slowly twist until it can go no further and stop it from slipping when wet. It works a treat

Download the free version of imTOO MPEG encoder (second one down): http://www.imtoo.com/
As long as your files are no longer than 5 mins you should have no problem.

Deffinatly blue

plazmatic CRM's are amazing with a tiny dab of tar or a sharp light grind.
-
Definitely a video to download.
-
I'll buy one. Brilliant day
-
but tilt those bars back
they're not as bad as they look
-
I was bored today so i thought i'd take a couple of quick snaps of the bike.

Speaking of removing paint off the rim, how do I remove the tar off my rim? my rim is smooth, no grind, so it should be pretty easy to remove the tar. But how do I go about removing it? Would thinner work?
Just use some wire wool.

I have two zoo levers and I love em. I think they feel so much nicer than the standard magura levers. Thers no real difference between the deng levers just go for what you think looks best.

I'd go for the 08 t-pro if I were you. They're good bikes to learn on and are brilliant for the price.
