  1. Personally i wouldn't pay for tar, because in most case you can fin it easily on streets, building sites etc for free, but if you can not find any then i would probably buy some as it makes a difference and is a lot cheaper than buying duel disc brakes, getting rims grinded etc. I suppose it depends on peoples own situations to whether they would pay for it.
  2. You get the off websites like Rofl Cats Enjoy all your cats .
  3. How much you get paid out will depend on the details of your insurance policy, so we can only guess to an extent. From what i know you are able to claim stolen goods on your insurance if its covered in your policy and they will then payout the value of the goods, after a few checks. Basically you will just have to wait and see what they say. Ps. i hope you get all the cash you are after !
  4. My own personal estimate would be £30 is the best you will be able to get, Onza parts are not well know for retaining their value, also the damage even though slight puts people off. However i wish you the best luck with selling them.
  5. Of course it is, no one sends checks of £1000 out unless thats how much the item costs, it may also be a sign of money laundering which is also highly illeagle
  6. On the surface it seems like a gret beginners bike to buy but just reading i noticed this: I would say that if you are going to purchase it you find out where these dents are and how bad they are as it is possible they could worsen or lead to parts breaking etc.
  7. You could just upgrade parts 1 by 1 so your spending money over time and you will eventually end up with a better bike, you could also try Ebay to see if any good bikes are going for a nice price.
  8. Hi, I have just been looking through the thread and it does seem that they may have scammed you. I am making this assumption by the fact that you have returned the product and they have simply cut off contact without without returning any money . The way i see it is that you can either keep trying to contact them and nothing, or you may want to go and speak to the local police near you to see if they can help in anyway. As with posting address's online i really don't think that you should do that as I am sure you have to ask for permission before you can do so, or they can claim that you are harassing them etc.
  9. Like the above people have said, its up to you mate, its your bike. Personally i wont recommend what color you should spray them as i don't know the color of the rest of your bike or what your own color taste is
  10. Hi all, Well i recently got my first bike of Ebay and it was fine at first however no there are 2 problems which are preventing me from riding , I was wondering if anyone knows the solution. First problem is with my bikes chain, when i pedal it works fine then all of a sudden it will stick, locking up when this happens it also makes my back wheel feel very heavy. I have looked at my chain and it seems to be in working order. My second problem is with my rear brakes I am running Magura's rim brakes and they don't seem to be pushing out as they should, they don't extend, I cannot see any leaking etc. So they are my 2 problems, sorry for the lack of technical languages as im new to biking so don't know all the part names yet etc Thanks for any help anyone can offer.
  11. I am 18 and only just started and people might say your too old etc, but who cares, if you wanna start then start ! You will have fun, its good exercise etc. Also i think that if you hold back on things because other people disagree then you will never reach your full potential. Also about people thinking its stupid to buy a bike without a seat, yeah i got that to but i guess that just comes with the sport.
  12. I really dont know how you drink it with so much sugar in, surely that takes away the tea or coffee flavor! Meh anyways i have 1 sugar in tea and 1 in coffee
  13. Cant see the pictures, so please reupload them and we will try to help, also with the picture please post the bikes spec etc . Also the Onza T-Bird brand new is around £300
  14. Hey, i made a topic asking exactly the same question. Basically... Yaabaa , a great bike for its price some parts are better than the Onza T-Pro and i believe it is a lighter weight. Onza T- Pro , again a great beginners bike, it is better if you are planning to upgrade parts. The original topic can be found at: http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/forum/index....howtopic=122814 I suggest you read the points raised in that ane make your own mind .
  15. Hehe I shall wait till you have the T-Pros in stock then I will probably end up ordering one . Thanks for all the help i think i have decided what to get now. Cheers all.
  16. Well if you think about it you could work on muscles in your arms, chest and legs which may be beneficial to your riding, but bearing in mind working out often results in gaining weight which may have an adverse effect? In my opinion the best way to get good at riding is to ride . Personally i would just say to do a general all round workout .
  17. Is it possible to fit a magura onto the Yaabaa, if anyone knows ? Thanks for the help again all .
  18. Not a bad video, i cant say i have ever heard of that rider before, but il keep an eye out for him in the future, nice find mate . Also does anyone happen to know the name of the first song, i like it
  19. I know its like the best bike for the price i have seen but the seller refuses to post it and i cant get to Nottingham, i even offered to go all the way down to Nottingham train station (Which would cost me like £45 ) and for them to meet me there with the bike but they refused, . Anyways it looks like i will be going for the Onza then, but from new since i cant find a second hand one . Also you said it should never cost over £15 to send a full bike is that via royal main or another company? Thanks for the help guys
  20. The factor that seems to be cropping up is upgrading in the future, is the Onza so much better for this than the Yaabaa? Also am i right in thinking the most likely next upgrade will be towards the brakes of the bike ? or does it depend on how it feels for me . Also i just found an Onza on ebay at the link http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Onza-t-pro-trials-bi...p3286.m14.l1318 It looks like it would be the ideal bike but after messaging the seller he will only let it go to a person who collects it in person and he cant meet me at the train station in nottingham, people these days .
  21. Yeah i got told this by a friend but after searching around on ebay etc i have not been able to come up with one, the main thing holding it back is they all require the bike to be collected and they wont post, as these are located to far away for me to travel i cant get them. Also is there any reason for this or is it just your personal opinion ? Also thanks for the replies so far. Edit: The yaabaa bike is found at " http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?pr...;category_id=10 " , sorry the first link didnt work i must have made a mistake .
  22. Well I am new to the trails biking world and from what i have encountered so far it is great fun. I have finally decided to get some cash together and get my own bike to start off with. Due to a few reasons I am limited to the cash i have to spend only got £350 ish and i have found 2 bikes that seem a good beginner bike. I am creating this topic in the hope that more experienced riders will be able to shine a light on which i should choose, or if there are any other viable alternatives. The first bike is the 20" Yaabaa 449 Senior, Yaabaa 449 senior The second is the Onza T-Pro '08 , Onza T-pro 08 ps. Thanks for any help in advance that anyone can offer
  23. Well as has been said above the best way to help prevent blisters is to invest in some gloves, these can be found at most cycle shops and are not that expensive, i recently picked up a pair for £7:99, the other alternative is to invest in "softer" hand grips for your bars, the price of hand grips does vary but they are not to expensive. Although over time the constant rubbing and blisters on your hands will cause skin to harden and make blisters less likely. Also with blisters to help remove the pain from them you can often buy creams from your local pharmacist, also it can be helpful to "drain" them, this involves using a needle and popping it near the edge and then putting a plaster over them. It can help to increase the recovery time, but its nothing major.
