And what things make you decide? Just comfort? Because there is no perfect height, too much height and a few moves will rock but others will suck, and vise versa with low setup. If you think about it, a lower setup would be easier to go to front wheel, wouldnt have to pull bars up as high to get the wheel on top of the object. but a high setup might be better for rear wheel control for tall guys.?

Thanks, ill try that. Was also just wondering what stem setup other tall riders are using?

Just wondering what everyone out there is using for stems and spacers, specifically 26" bikes with BB +45 or more. Whats your opinion on using spacers? I am 6'4" and just got a new 150x30 stem and I have a 10mm spacer under it... Can't really play with spacer height with a sloped top cap so I am wondering if I should cut it down without spacer or leave it? On a 26" with +45 bb, wheelbase is around 1100. Does Stan run a spacer under his stem? I know he's tallish and uses the tryall 152x30 stem i believe? Some moves are better with higher bars but some are worse, trying to find the medium best of both worlds spot. Thanks

I already got my copy and watched the whole thing + extras and It blows any other trials video away. GET1 was pretty hard to beat but I think this tops it. Edited really well as usual coming from Goddard. If you are a fan of biketrial in any way and you don't order GET2 you are REALLY missing out.

LOL 1 2 3 4 5 1 2 3 4 5 i thought that was pretty damn funny. so extremeeeeeeeee

I think his rear axle didn't pass through a certain marker maybe? Thanks for commenting everyone, glad you enjoy. Ryan

LOL love the faces.. awesome video!

Finally sorted through my hours of raw footage. Video includes 26" elite semi finals, some 20" elite finals, Hegedus L. training, some junior warm up, 26" elite finals and some XC & downhill footage. Also a special guest appearance by Danny Butler and Ben Slinger . Some riders in the video: Vincent, Gilles, Benito, Ben Slinger, Marc Caisso, Diaz, Kenny, Hegedus, John Webster and more. Encoding and Vimeo conversion took away alot of quality but at least the audio is still in sync and the aspect ratio is right. You can download the video if you scroll down on the right of the page. It was a great experience and pleasure to finally watch some of the riders ive been looking up to over the past years in person. I actually talked to Cesar Canas for a while along with Danny Butler, Ben Slinger and Hegedus who were and still are big inspirations of mine. Very nice, good people. It was funny how I met them, talking to these random people while watching the comp who turned out to be Slinger's parents haha.. I hope you enjoy the footage and if you feel like it's boring without audio just play some music in the background while watching or something. I remember always watching comp footage without music and I actually like it more than an edited video with music. If you know a better way to compress 720x480 4:3 miniDV footage let me know! Cheers! Please Comment!

If anyone plays counterstrike 1.6 my gaming group and I have a new server up. It's called CKW fun maps! The levels are fun and funny, usually with vehicles and other crazy stuff..... come stop by... server IP is: 64.120.21.237:27015 our website is www.ckwgaming.com if you want to play download steam (www.steampowered.com) when you get steam you can buy and download counterstrike.

ANYWAYS....... HEY what the hell is TGS? I keep seeing it everywhere on the forum, some type of riding, street, comp, tgs... wtf?

it'd probly be better if otn and TF merged... the sport is so small, like whoever else before me said... its dumb to have separate forums when you could gear everyones input and info into one place

i always use msn... hate everything else... So, no ones even heard from matt... do you guys realize he might not want to run it anymore and otn is gone FOREVER??! noes

ive always liked TF but always use otn because its better to network with US riders and whatever...

New video series. Riding is nothing huge, hopefully for the 2nd video we will have some bigger move stuff... Video is approx. 7min30sec long and around 180mb who chose to download the file. All comments/suggestions/questions are welcome as always. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJcPbLT3nhc or http://vimeo.com/5503409

why are bikes so difficult. I just bought my hope trials last winter. Not buying a different one just because my fork. But the new frame i get will be based around a fork with 400mm/35 rake vs. mine which is 45 rake... GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
