[A Trial Trip To The Uk (from Israel)]

hey guys, thanks again for helping out.

the war is over, i had enough of it, now its time to ride...

so i am thinking of London, Bristol, Reading and Oxford.

i guess most flights land at london so its a good place to start.

i guess london is BIG, anyone call tell me of group rides that happen in london on a weekly bases?

likes days and hours?

are there cheep places to stay at, like hostels?

thanks,

Nir

[A Trial Trip To The Uk (from Israel)]

[A Trial Trip To The Uk (from Israel)]

Do you want to ride street or natural?

Will you be Sofa Surfing?

street mostly, since we dont ride much natural here.

what is Sofa Surfing?

out of all the places you recommanded i would like to minimze to 4 that are popular for trial riding, where we can ride in groupls that meet often.

do people ride in groups everyday or do you have to plan a group ride?

so the idea is 4 places (2 weeks) for street riding that alot have alot of group rides.

Thanks

[A Trial Trip To The Uk (from Israel)]

Hey guys,

my friend and I are starting our plans for a trial trip to the UK.

we are both after our army service, i am 26 and he is 22.

we are 2 trial riders out of 6 or 7 in israel, Trial is not that popular here and

we are not pro, but se sure know how to ride the basics and up.

anyway...

we want to plane a two week trip, find good places to ride street trials, group up with local riders that we can learn from and improve are skills.

so where do you guys recommand us to be?

we dont know the UK at all, so any advice can help.

Thanks guys

[Can Gring And Put Tar On The Rim?]

do you think one sidehop of tar will do the job?

[Can Gring And Put Tar On The Rim?]

Thanks for you replys.

[Can Gring And Put Tar On The Rim?]

Hey guys,

i have a TRYall Rim that is grined, my question is, can i put tar on the grind'

dose help or make it worse?

up to now just TAR did the job great, i thought that grind will be better, but now i cant really say that...

[Pictures Of Bunnyhops!]

i hope this can help.

Its Sharon, one of the trial riders here in israel:

[My]

sweeeetttt!!!!

simple and clean, nice bike.

long or short?

[Would Longer Cranks...]

technically yes. Realistically, no

I agree.

other then power(the pedal) gaping right is alot of correct body movment and shifting your weight right.

[Hight Of Handelbars From The Ground.]

i think i will start with 40" + - and see from there.

i will let you guys know how it went, maybe its somthing that we should look into.

thanks

[Hight Of Handelbars From The Ground.]

thanks guys, for all your answers.

i think it is a mesurment that needs to be calculated.

since you can put on bars with Spacers or without, and you can put a stem with a rise or without.

BB posistion and top tube length have to be a factor in decideing how high and far your bars are.

Far bars = high moment(torque)

High Bars = Less to pull to the get to point of balance and the wheel is lower to the ground when in that point.

i dont know if i am making any sence, and like other things i need to try it to decide, just thought since almost everything else is claculated this might be to.

[Hight Of Handelbars From The Ground.]

Hey guys,

i just got my Echo Control frame here in israel.

i am starting to build it next week and wanted to know how high the handel bars should be off the ground?

i got a zoo riser and i still did not decide on a stem, from what i see in the pictures the bar is pertty low compared to what i have on my zebdi mk5.

btw i am 179cm tall if that helps.

Thanks,

[Singel Speed Or Multi Speed]

well i guess singel speed is the way, i been having so many problems, the chain just fell off a couple of days ago and i was over the handel bars and on the ground in 0.5 secends.. and yes it hurts

i got a chris king singel speed kit, and i run a 16t on the front, that means i need a 14t on the back right?

[Singel Speed Or Multi Speed]

is it right to say that singel speed is safer for riding?

in sence that the chain has less posibility to fall.

[Singel Speed Or Multi Speed]

Hey guys,

just wanted to see what presentage of people use singel speed or multi speed gear.

i think it would give us a good indication of whats out there.

thanks,

[Trials Shoes]

i have VANS "off the wall"

its skatbording shoes, they have strong grip, and the movment on the pedel and around the axel is eazy.

i would recommand them.

[Zoo Pitbul 2006 Or Echo Hifi?]

*BUMP*

the GU is too long and too high BB

so what you guys say out of the two, echo hifi to Zoo pitbul?

[Zoo Pitbul 2006 Or Echo Hifi?]

why is high BB so bad?

i thought its the new thing in frames today.

[Zoo Pitbul 2006 Or Echo Hifi?]

Tarty bikes are out of Adamant A1 Long.

and i dont want to wait 2 months for it.

from what i saw, these two frames and the adamant are almost alike.

what do you say, Zoo Pitbull 2006 or Echo Hifi?

[Adamant A1]

what do you mean when you say street? bmxy (bunnyhops, spins etc) or street trials (taps, gaps)

Street Trials.

my question is, if i need a low BB for Street Trials (taps,gaps)

[Adamant A1]

if you ride street you may want to consider a frame with a lower bb?

dose it matter?

from i read, i seems that the high BB gives better control on the back whell.

i will ask it in another way, is there a reason for a low BB for street trial?

thanks prawn, i didnt think of that.

[Adamant A1]

Hey guys,

i dont really konw the diffrences between short and long.

the size is 1055 for the short frame and 1090 for the long.

my hight is 179cm and i ride mostly street.

what frame size should i get?

and what are the pro's and con's of short and long?

thanks

Nir

[What Is The Best Frame Out Now?]

what about the admant a1 , do you guys think its one of the best?

[Fork For Adamant A1 Short]

I would say zoo forks for the a1, i run hifi forks on my a2 and it's nice, but zoo would look better on a1.

other then it looking good, is there a perfmance reason to put zoo?

dose zoo come in black?
