What do you recommend then?
-
Right... right... right! No weirdness for me!
-
Hey do I want folding bead or steel bead tyres? I'm thinking of going with the Maxxis High Roller... Let me know your thoughts!
-
What country? Bike looks pretty nice
-
I say go for the BB7s
Cheep, affordable, and squealing good hold! 
-
Thanks everyone! I'm going pure stock! I hate mods. Anyone know about the new '08 Gu ST Disk model?
-
Please post of your experiences with GU... I'm thinking of purchasing.
-
Yep! just what I was a planning:)
-
You talking these guys? http://www.jensonusa.com/store/product/CA4...+Brake+Set.aspx
How about these Avids http://www.jensonusa.com/store/product/CA7...ake+Cables.aspx
-
Just what I wanted to know... as far as cables-would these work? http://www.jensonusa.com/store/product/CA4...ke+Housing.aspx
or what do you all recommend?
-
Do the BB7s allow one finger braking? This is VERY important to me.
-
Say that you do biketrials comps, similar to motorbike trials, and you're just training at the moment. People tend to be a lot more understanding rather than thinking you're just vandalising street furniture.
Yep Mate! You got it figured out!
-
Thanks everyone! That was just what I wanted to know...
-
Explain to me a little better about bb rise/height... what is the difference of +10 versus +40? Which is better? Or I should say, what are the downfalls of one versus the other... Is it something I need to worry about?
-
Aye...you bleed baby oil like Magura oil...the..same way, using a big syringe...lol.
Yes I knew that part:D
-
Okay just what I wanted to know... Thanks!
-
Thanks! Checked my pads and their still really thick... Okay, I'm going to get some Maggie blood but what is the downfall of baby oil? Do I have to buy a bleed kit to bleed them?
-
Nope! no riders around me!
Actually it takes mineral oil! can I use baby oil?
-
Hey I got to get ridin' what shall I do? I'm brand new to hydraulic brakes! (especially disk)
-
is there a little allen key head just inside the lever? if so tighten that up
Not that I know of...
-
Yes the brake is working fine! Its just that the lever goes in too far almost touching the bar. Also, when going down a hill, etc. the brake feels a little gritty, possibly the pads? Also, do I have to buy the specific Maggie mineral oil or can I just use baby oil?
-
Hey everyone!
I have a Magura Marta disk on the front, and there's way too much pull in the lever and it almost touches the handlebar! What do I need to do? I have never worked with hydraulic brakes before so please explain carefully!
Thanks!
-
Okay everyone, thanks for the input! As far as trackstanding, pivoting, etc. I have been doing this... I'll keep persisting on the rear wheel!
-
Hey everyone! I just got my first trials bike! And I have NEVER ridden one before in my life, only MTB and so when it pop up on the back wheel, I'm scared of going over backward!!!! Sure I can go back far enough that I have to step off, but how do you recommend I get over this? Is this normal? LOL, I'm just a beginner...
...obviously!
Tyres... (american Spells: "tires")

Yep! I'm just half inch taller than you:P How about if I would run single ply in front and steel in back?
