  1. Actually scrap that. http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/topic/176370-pashley-26ghz-resprayed/ Looking at it here, the 4 bolt mounts are made as a solid block like an alu frame, so the nut won't work, on the other hand there's a lot more material around the hole to get it helicoiled, get it helicoiled
  2. That's a good idea actually, but I'm not sure how the copyright stuff works on music, as youtube hasn't put that itunes link on the vid yet, what you reckon?
  3. This, if I remember from my 26Ghz, you should be able to do this, steel frames tend to have the mounts welded on as a thin plate with room in the back for a bolt. Alu frames use the mounts like blocks, there's a lot more material to work with than on steel frames.
  4. Me too! lol, from now on I will make more of an effort to wear one. That roof gap, I went there one morning, no helmet, and I bottled it, I went back the week after with helmet... done it twice! I can see why people use them, I'll give it a go. Glad you like, this song/video has been my life for over 2 months, and what's even better is...I'm seeing Serj Tankian live next Sunday, and he'll be singing this song!
  5. Ahh Thanks a lot! I suppose I've always gone for that Trialskings kinda vibe, glad you enjoyed it! All feedback welcome, good or bad!
  6. A still from the video, now it's out there...
  7. Cheers. Yeah the biggest issue was, I never got the "big" finishing move I wanted (I bottled it) because that should have been where the bank to rail stuff was, so I kinda had to move things about and compensate, I also wanted to film tomorrow too but that crash at the end ruined my right foot so I had to call it a day
  8. Cheers! Yeah that tree to bench was such an arsehole, I got so cut & bruised doing that, I just couldn't get any spin off the tree, it didn't really have an edge so the "pop" wasn't there for me, maybe one day!
  9. Weird to think I was there for every single clip! Not bad considering you started what, 10 days ago? Love that last bail too.
  10. Thanks! It's taken a long time but it was worth the injuries., time, travel, early mornings. GETinjured!
  11. Thanks Mark Dann & Ali! It was never as warm as it looked but I'm glad it came out looking quite sunny! Cheers! Yeah gears can be useful! And yeah we'll def sort a ride out!
  12. Haha, cheers! I was going for the trialskings vibe, hopefully it just makes people wanna ride!

    Very nice, good stuff! Also Reminds me that I need to learn to hook.
  15. That was brilliant, I actually smiled start to finish.

    That was infact quality, probably my favourite so far. That 180 stoppie on the bench is probably tied with Ali's 360 drop in for coolest move.

    I'm at 41 sec so far (my pc doesn't get along with Vimeo) and this has quite a bit in common with mine
  18. I think it's complete! Just waiting for it to save so I can check it over in HD.
  19. Lol, yeah, but I feel the 360 & the flip were big moves which could have been built up to with the flatland. Actually I kind of expected the flatland, but I never expected a flip or a 360 down some stairs ( a nice clean one too) Enjoyed it anyway
  20. I think the clips could have been arranged better, like finishing with a bigger move & not ending so abruptly. I would have put the 360 down the stairs near the end (my favourite move) and the final squeaker early on etc. Ridiculous riding for his age though.
  21. One final morning filming tomorrow! Should be done Saturday.
  22. Some people still have Fattys, but they're obselete now and no modern frames are designed with old forks in mind, modern forks are much longer and have less rake.
  23. 30mm on your forks is a massive difference, that'll change your head angle by a couple of degrees, that's roughly the same as taking the entire headset on/off the bike. Normal trials forks are NOT 390mm, Maybe 10-12 years ago, and no one uses fattys/Pashley anymore, modern forks are 405-415.
  24. Forks are loooong (dirt jump) they compensate for the low front. But yeah it's a jump bike at heart.
