hi guys i recently aquired a megamo from ebay, its not my only trials bike but i have always wanted a megamo so bought it at like 50 quid.... anyway i have destroyed the rear hub... i think its the freehub thats gone so i wanted to put my hope complete wheel from my other bike on as a quick fix untill i maybe got the wheel fixed BUT IT WONT FIT!!!!!!! i was wondering wether i have to purchase a specific megamo hub for the frame or a hub by another brand which will fit with suitable preformance for trials.... thanks guys if it helps the megamo is quite old ill try and put a pic up but im in new zealand at the moment and my bike is at home.... just had a spare minute in a net cafe and thought id try my luck

i am running a panaracer fire xc pro on the front and that is very lightweight seems a decent tread to use, but i cant see it being very resistant to pinch flats

one of my mates is in brisbane at the moment his name is lewis greenhalgh he is a member on here, tryall master is his members name i think hope that helps

How long have you been riding? 5 years on and off Favourite or dream bike? pashely 26mhz looking street tuff Best place to ride? rocks up in derbyshire or some good street Preferred brake set up? v or disk on front, v or maggy on back Preferred size, 20" or 26"? 26inch Favourite make or manufacturer? pace How often do you ride? every day Best or favorite trick/move? front tap to brakeless manual to gap Bigggest gap? 4 feet rolling Biggest drop? bus shelter Preferred ride(street, rocks, etc)? street What do you most want to be able to do on your bike? big taps Helmet or not? helmet

so let me get this straight i can buy a set of the v brake pads that heatsink do...... which if i have read their website properly you can use magura size pads into their backings so that means i can have a set of heatsink pads (yellow or white which are better???) and when im sick of them i can bang a pair of phat pads into them!!!!!!!! everyones a winner!!!!

can you also get phat pads in a v brake version? is this the same guy that owns heatsink brake pads...... i apologise i get confused between them really great pads though so i hear

like most things its down to personal preference, it gets said so many times on here but its really the be all and end all in my opinion...... a rim brake has a bit more bite, and also you can do things such as tar and a grind to the rim to fine tune the brake to your needs. whereas with a disc the modulation allows you to slow rather than come to a complete stop which is useful when getting up onto things. my point is made much clearer when you look at other cycling disciplines, downhill riders more often than not have disc brakes, due to the fact that the brakes slow you rather than stop you the point about bending discs when sidhopping is also a good point to consider but dont just go maguras, a good set of v brakes which have far less maintenence and are more durable in the sense that hoses dont snap if u bail etc but like i initially said its all down to the rider

no but i had it for a while and i reckon my crank bolts were a tad on the loose side which caused it to self combust shame really......... but i didnt pay for it got it with the pair of cranks free of charge

hi lads im wanting to respray my forks they have already been painted by the guy i bought them off what do you recommend to firstly recommend to remove the paint and get the best surface to then reapply another coat nitromorse? sandpaper? wire brush? they are really nice forks so i dont want to do a bodge job thanks

i have snapped numerous chains, spokes, bars, brake levers best one is when i snapped a race face bb by just doing a bunny hop whilst rolling to our next riding spot!!!!! not a happy shopper

if i hadnt just bought a planet x zebdi i wudda considered making you an offer for it nevermind i miss the brisa bar and stem combo aswell they were great

hello sorry for the flood of topics from me but ive got the trials bug again after a few years off found the trials kings ones.......... you should all watch them they are very inspiring im looking for a video it was a web based one that eddie tongue and his brother matt did for gate 8 clothing, i havnt seen it for ages and it was brilliant can anyone point me in the right direction thanks

just ordered a planet x zebdi from ebay cant get on with these massive frames etc..... dont wanna start an arguement they just arnt for me, i grew up with the era of the trials kings and edd tongue anyway anyone know anywhere i can get any pics of people zebdis that people own or have owned so i can get the best set up when my frame comes thanks guys

thanks for that bit of advice chaps next question where is the best place to get them from ive been looking on ebay....... and there is a shop that sells them from the usa which seems a lot cheaper than over here whats the feedback on overseas purchase are they of the same quality etc thanks again guys

im seriously considering buying a chris king hub which one do people recommend for trials use on a stock bike singlespeed?? any specific upgrade kits i need? thanks

i hear you mate i am 21 and used to ride trials when i was about 14/15 got pretty good if i dont say so myself now im back into it with a bang also i have found i am not too bothered about breaking parts or scratching parts etc (a big thing when i was younger ) so i attempt much more stuff and i am now no stranger to letting the bike fall if i dont make the move i have also seemed to develop more bottle than i had when i was younger and also look at obstacles which i looked at when i was younger and said no way, now i say.... maybe keep riding mate it keeps you out of the pub, out of the bookies, and it gives you somthing to show for the money you have spent on your bike instead of a urine stain in a shop doorway and a headache the next morning

i have no idea mate that wud be upto u wudnt it and its condition etc but its not for sale so never mind hahah

dimon ive built a trials bike up again aswell lets get a session on sumtime..... u know just like the old times but with lewis!!!!! speak soon

what did you do?
