  1. Oh rite, sounds like a good idea. I'll definitely try this when I try again tonight.
  2. OK, ill try this tonight. Thanks for your help.
  3. I was trying to do this last nite, but I oviously must have been hitting it too hard. Ill have to try again tonight. Does anyone know any way how i can make the hose more pliable so the barb goes in better?
  4. I do already have these clamps, but when i tried hammering in the barb ends last nite the hose just kept splitting.
  5. Snapped the crossover on my rear Magura HS33s. I have got the new hose, some blood and the ends (cant remember what they are called) that i need, but I am having trouble geting the ends onto the hose. Can anyone help or does anyone have any suggestions?
  6. If I were you then I would just ditch it an get a new 1.
  7. I would say get a 4 bolt booster. I dont realy think it makes too much difference on the bite of the brake, but it will definitely make your frame less likely to snap in that area.
  8. I do quite a lot of weights, but i have found that since I started trials again about 2-3 months ago (after a space of about 5-6 years out of it) the muscles in my forearms have increased in size dramatically. Because of this I would say that, yes its good to do weights and stuff, but definitely the best way is jus to do more and more trials.
  9. I would like to see all parts become cheaper so it doesnt cost you so much when u break something.
  10. Oh right, sounds good. Sounds like theres a fair few decent places to ride near where I live. My bike is broken at the moment, but I will definitely be up for goin on a ride when i get it fixed, and maybe when i get a bit better... lol
  11. Yea it is, but I dont want to order the wrong one because apparently there are around 170 different types of hanger. So i think ill take the broken one to my bike shop tomorow and see if they have the right one.
  12. Just been out riding and landed heavily on my rear mech on my bike and snapped the hanger, so now im going to be bike-less for a few days untill i get a new hanger
  13. Roughly how much does a complete rebuild cost?
  14. Is there anyone here who knows any decent places to ride in lincolnshire or nottinghamshire?
  15. Why cant people just read the rules?
  16. I am wondering whether I should get my rims drilled or not, or whether i should just buy some new rims that are already drilled. The rims I currently have are Onza Reggie and Ronnie. Can anyone help me please?
  17. 18lbs is realy light, its like 8.1kg... lol
  18. I just have standard Magura HS-33 pads.
  19. I've only just got back into trials, and havnt got round to getting my rims ground yet and ive lost my tar. This is the only real reason why im curently using candle wax.
  20. You clearly havn't tried it then, because it works quite well. I know its not as good as a grind, but its a quick and cheap option.
  21. Well then clearly you should try it for yourself because, like ive said already, it works for me pretty well.
