My mod is a beaut. It's lasted longer than both my previous frames - Onza Genesis and Limey 420 Proto

Yerp

It's basically a Koxx Sky frame. Only 'testers' were the Breath team, but there is a fairly high number of very good riders using them.

As above. Tape it to the next finger along

I cant imagine you have any trouble with either in that case. I'm around 5'8 and find Andrei's GU a little long for me but get on alright with Seddon's Limey 4 Mind you, Joe's about the same height as me so it's set up similar to my height

How tall are you?

Give Joe Seddon a shout on Facebook. He's based in Plym and goes climbing semi-regularly over winter I think

I've thought for so long that Mike would benefit from something shorter & lower, like an Echo Pure His bars also look too wide for him - making him look almost 'spread eagled' over the bike

I'd have thought so - I know Benito approached Onza for sponsorship with some hilarious financial expectations!

We stock these Shun freewheel cranks: http://www.sjscycles.co.uk/shun-alloy-104-pcd-4-arm-freewheeling-cranks-170-mm-silver-prod23859/ Wouldn't ever recommend them for trials use though, pretty sure the base freewheel is a really basic Dicta unit. Thorn cycles only use them occasionally for lazy tandem stokers!

Z610HX every time

Looks great. Geo is way off what i'd want but glad you are happy with it

You know this is the trials industry, right?

I'll max about 750 miles from that with very Christian driving - which, of course, is not very often. White van man all the way!

Word, it's the only day of the month when I brim the van's colossal tank. I'll be squeezing about £125 in later!

Did you ever get all the footage from the tunnel ride together Jonny?

'Cos it sounds wank?

Sprung tensioners will always still allow chain slap - not much anyone can do about that i'm afraid. I'd say your best off with a heatsink or custom spoke tensioner

Wut?

They use carpet quite a bit on the corners of logs and such at comps in the wet. Sod buying expensive paint - just throw sand into normal paint. All the tables and platforms of Andrei's demo rig are a sand/paint mix, works really well.

Chicken wire, or carpet stapled down
