  1. OMFG ! LADS give me a buzz on sunday and ill come out on my git !
  2. yeah man ill start riding again now ! still gotta build me gu though
  3. thats what i heard aswell mate ! think he will get on better with the stamp collecting if he sticks to it !
  4. will be there ! after meeting up we will go slightly out of town if you want ?
  5. yes mate just let me know when im only 5 mins away from town square but i work 10-6 most days , sunday is always a good day !
  6. very nice man how does it ride in comparison to an inspired fourplay ?
  7. cheers mate i did look at the hope ones but ran out of cash ! so jus went for the same one in the pic but 80mm and has made it feel how i wanted it , i had got used to the low 24" forks and now the 26" urbans make it feel good ! thanx for the comments so far
  8. rides really nice with the new echo forks on but should feel a hell of alot better when i put a new stem on tomorrow ! like i said it was a quick fix so i could ride would like some recommendations , was thinking 90mm 10degree rise ?? whats your thoughts ? OH AND YES IT IS A HALO COMBAT FRONT RIM ! again a quick fix i did a while ago after snapping bolts in me old front wheel , it was the only 24" rim i could get me hands on so built it up quickly so i could ride which i never got round to sorting back out ! lol
  9. my old stem i had sprayed white wit a black front cross threaded so this 1 was a quick fix i got off stuntman so i could ride . i still plan to re-build bothwheels on 24 lt rims and change the crank . keep it coming !
  10. finally re-sprayed my zoot ! and added a fixed back wheel with freewheel up front ! criticise away guys i know i still have some adjustments to make but im happy with it at the moment before : now :
  11. yeah good ride lads ! you should of stayed out though the rain did pass and the sun came out wit vengence ! good to meet you aswell dave ,hopefully we will get a propper ride next week , will post up again for next sunday in the week.
  12. right dude , YOU CAN USE ANY BIKE FOR TRIALS ! i have been riding for a very long time and started with a 19" specialized hardrock ! i have changed bikes alot over the years and would say the new geomatrys they use make a huge difference but only if you have already learnt the basics ie: trackstands, bunnyhops etc i would agree with my friend chandler on this one and say use your carrera untill you feel your level of riding is goin further than your bike can take you unless you have the money to throw at a cheap trials bike eg: onza t-bird , m.a.d phase look on ebay and buy second hand though that way it should be really cheap and your only going to scratch it to pieces anyway ! if you choose to stick with your carrera you should look at changing your brake to magura rim brakes if your wheels have the braking surface and boss mounts if not a cheap good mechanical brake with dual pad movement is GUSSETS rrp 39.99 and i sell them at 29.99 , fitting a bashguard to your crank and looking at your stem length , i use to find kona p2 rigid forks worked nice on a standard frame .\ Then if you do decide to go for a cheap trials bike your already gonna have a few parts to swap over !
  13. at work sat m8 till 6 plus my bike is in pieces till saturday night lol
  14. should have me bike with a fresh paint job and new parts sorted by saturday night so looking good for a sunday ride again ! 4 wks in a row and finally i have my bike sorted i think ? so dont let me down ! MARKET SQUARE MEET BETWEEN 12-1 unless anyone is coming down on the train ! let us know .

  17. lol he nailed that gap up at uni the other day when we were riding and the funny thing was is that he couldn't do a rolling gap before , so i told him how and showed him and as far as i remember he did it on his 2nd attempt and then about 5 times after that ! GOOD RIDE TUESDAY MATE 1st if seen of the vid looks good we just need a decent video camera now !

  20. i'll have to agree with this im an old school rider and have been riding trials on and off for 12 years ! changing my technique has been hard but to keep up its a must do ! i have improved my riding and height WITHOUT DRILLING anything . but i still wanna see some pics ! come on get them posted up !
