loved it, nice one dude!

what like the the shit in the address bar?

I think thats the right word, basically on another forum there is no 'insert media' type button only 'link' how do I put a you tube vid on this so the video shows up, not just as a clickable link? Anyone?

I concur

I havn't been to space so my visual logic agrees with you. Leech is not shit

Its a book, if you want an instructional dvd, the koxx/try all one is good, also look up ryan leech on youtube.

This is one of the best 20 quids you can spend: http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/books/trashzen_your_complete_guide_to_trials_riding/c547p11850.html

Basics can be learned on a mountain bike, but that is a moot point now. Excellent choice! Inspirational video: [media=] Get it on dude, it will improve your life!

Have any of you actually tried trials on a mountain bike/ Full sus? I have, alot of the answers up there are bunk, except for the one about just get a second bike.

Ali doesn't need good brakes though?

I concur, personally I fekin hate grinding rims, its so boring so I let them get really shite before a regrind, this usually takes months. Had a mate grind mine this time because I could not be arsed and its the best grind I have ever had, some people are just good at it, some are shite, I think I fall in the middle.

You tried it? I need to know, please confirm that you have tried this first hand and it went pear shaped, if otherwise i am gonna try it

You can get charged for sending money, you get asked, buyer/you pay the fee? And you can get charged a fee for sending as a gift also.

Can't wait to see this one, nice burns dude

what he said ^^^^ but if your gonna blow the lot either a inspired skye or a koxx sky 2

Utter machine lolz I agree

Liked it

Weird vid from you with no cool obscure music but I loved it, twas cool.

Rock and roll bikes are sound as I have bought stuff off them and never had ant problems whatsoever.

because they are making money off your money while it is in there

I have done it. I also have a pictar of a horse

I'm not taking sides here at all but would like to make some points: First bearings if selected to the correct manufacturing specification for the intended purpose can in fact have no 'Service life' if maintained properly i.e lubrication, the alignment/environmental specs are met, then a bearing can last in effect, forever, or certainly a few human life times. This is obviously in the perfect hypothetical world, but they should be expected to last at least a year. The fact of the matter is that spherical bearings are not the best selection for this purpose, specific to trials, most bicycles would never have a problem as they are not being subjected to some serious radial loading, most importantly static radial loading. Just think of the radial loading on the front bearings in for instance a large gap to front, where the brake is locked tight on landing the front wheel. We must also take into consideration that the bearings are never fixed on both axial directions in bicycle hubs, the axial loading is therefore not properly controlled. As in the outer race is only fixed in one direction on each bearing. I havn't the time to write a lengthy explanation of why they are a shit choice (for the riders) for trials wheels so I will just be lazy and quote wiki which is rather lame but all i can be bothered with. [quote Failure modes If a bearing is not rotating, maximum load is determined by force that causes non-elastic deformation of balls. If the balls are flattened, the bearing does not rotate. Maximum load for not or very slowly rotating bearings is called "static" maximum load.[3] If that same bearing is rotating, that deformation tends to knead the ball into roughly a ball shape, so the bearing can still rotate, but if this continues for a long time, the ball fails due to metal fatigue. Maximum load for rotating bearing is called "dynamic" maximum load, and is roughly two or three times as high as static maxload.[3] If a bearing is rotating, but experiences heavy load that lasts shorter than one revolution, static maxload must be used in computations, since the bearing does not rotate during the maximum load.[3]]

No However under the governments regulation on warranty's and shit the retailer does not have to do anything if the cost is prohibitive, such as a water bottle that cost's less than the postage. Also: The two main laws protecting consumers are the Sale of Goods Act 1979 and the Supply of Goods and Services Act 1982. Both have been amended several times to bring them up to date. You don’t have to know every detail of them to assert your rights, but it’s worth knowing the important sections. New goods have to be: Of satisfactory quality – in other words, free of flaws and made from durable materials (unless they are obviously shop-soiled or are “seconds”) As described – that is, they match any claims made about them by the seller or manufacturer Fit for purpose – this means that, for example, a pair of headphones must not only play music, but also fit your MP3 player if the salesperson says they will. If an item fails to meet any of the three conditions, take it back to the shop at the earliest opportunity. The longer you hold on to it, the more likely it is that the seller will say you accepted it and therefore gave up your legal right to return it. Also, don’t modify an item in any way. Having a piece of clothing altered, for example, suggests that you agreed to keep it. If an item is faulty and you’ve had it for a very short time, don’t be tempted by offers of free repairs, a credit note or an alternative product. You’re entitled to your money back. If a product breaks down or becomes unusable before it’s six months old, you don’t have to prove that it was faulty when you bought it. The law assumes that it was. You’re entitled to a replacement or repair – but the seller can decide which. If neither is possible, you can claim a full or partial refund. If it’s more than six months since you bought the item in question, it’s up to you to prove that it has a fault. If you take something home and simply change your mind about it, the shop doesn’t have to take it back. But you may be offered an exchange or a credit note out of goodwill.

This. Which is what happened.
