  1. YOu could try some MTB bars, the RaceFace Diablous (something like that) I used to use were pretty flat.
  2. Pretty massive stuff happening there
  3. Got a new mech hanger and still had problems, then found that the bashring is wobbly. Basically, looking at it from above, I spin the cranks and can see the bashring and sprocket wobble from side to side. The cranks don't wobble and are straight and the bottom bracket is still fitted properly with no play. Any solutions/ideas? They're Middleburn cranks and bash on a trialtech pro bottom bracket. I've taken the crank off and tightened the circly thing on the inside (I'm clearly no expert) and that's done nothing. Thanks, really need this sorted before Radfest...
  4. You can still read them, you just can't reply to that particular message My messages work on Chrome, what browsers did you use?
  5. If I were you I would make the most of what you first and practice on that, and save for a trials bike that's made for the job. Something like an Onza or a Phase would be good for beginners, then you could upgrade parts as you improve around a much more suited frame. Getting a Hope hub for your current bike would be a waste as your spending a lot of money on a bike that will never be suited for trials really.
  6. Loved that, make a longer one please.
  7. I think so, I can open mine fine back to January 2010
  8. I was the same tripod wise for a while. Solution is to get a bit of wood and nail flat bit to the top then rest the cmera on that, looks cheap but it works
  9. I'd stick with the Kona rather then the BMX. I learn on my 19" Specalized for months practicing general hopping, wheel pivots, bunnyhops and wheelies so when I started trials I found the transfer pretty easy.The BMX will be pretty cramped compared to a trials bike so riding the mtb would probably be better, I think.
  10. You're not taking the advice you've been given multiple times now, get a tripod or someone who can keep their arm reasonably steady. The filming just made it annoying to watch. Some good gaps and sidehops in there though, and cool to see you learning some front wheel stuff

    Films!?

    Can not wait till the last Harry Potter movie, trailer looks better then most of the movies
  12. Barbican's awesome, so seeing what he does should also be awesome
  13. Thinking that this sounds awesome, so keep an eye out http://www.tvmole.com/2011/05/greenlit-concrete-circus-channel-4/
  14. Looks cooleo, love the sort of basic look of those frames, none of that curvy hydroforming stuff.
  15. Same as me, I have the click rule where if I can't here myself click my fingers it's too loud.
  16. Got to love a bit of Kate Bush, one of my favorite songs of all time, not that I've been around for most of it
  17. Loved that a lot, really makes me want to ride Barbican again
  18. I do pretty much all the time because I hardly ever get to ride with other people. Doesn't really make much of a difference performance wise, when I start sessioning somewhere I tend to blank out anyway and am then shocked seeing I've listened to a whole album without remembering hearing the songs. And if there's something I really want to push myself on I turn it off. But I like it quiet to be on the safe side so I can listen out for people, dogs and cars.
  19. Do you know what year the frame is? I would guess that is over priced considering it's a hardtail with v-brakes and looking at what you can get new for that price. But those frames are pretty jazzy I hear.
  20. I tried it and ended up apying 20 quidders for 20 lizardmen. I do not know why my mum let me do that. And I hated painting them, got respect for the people that sat in the shop all day painting every little precise detail for hours.

    When Skynet comes out we'll be in real trouble.
  22. I don't understand how people say he's a BMXer when he clearly shows he does all those trials moves. Loved it, and that bunnyhop gap looked so easy to him, just a little bunnyhop landing to both wheels

    This Guy

    To be honest I do that as well, it's just the whole pretending to be sponsored sort of thing that annoys me, or I assume he's pretending
