  1. Riding switch-foot is an arse! So difficult, especially with proper 'hoppy hoppy' trials. Benito is an absolute god at it.
  2. I've dabbled a bit, but don't do anything at all now, I barely drink Smoked quite a lot of weed when I was 15-16. Was a good laugh at that age, getting stoned at parties or simply baking out a shed! Once I left school though and the group all went separate ways I've barely touched it. Haven't smoked anything now in over 2 years - I f**king hate cigarettes Did MDMA quite a few times up until a couple of years ago - it's freekin' awesome! Only ever took it at an 'appropriate' time (drum & bass raves etc) and the effects are fantastic. Just sort of heightens everything, though you do need to be careful not to drink too much while on it Cokes a laugh, but only taken in once or twice. Just makes you super confident an talkative - quite easy to make an arse of yourself That's it really. Did some shrooms once at a house party when I was still school age and tripped out for a couple ours. Vowed that I'd never again do anything hallucinogenic, I'm not happy with anything which f**ks with your head in that way
  3. We have a winner! This looks bloody gorgeous
  4. Holy shit they were sketchy
  5. Think this applies mostly to 24"/street trial riders. Most 'pure' trials riders are pretty used to those costs. See Try-All tyres, Monty Pro Race, Conti Der Kaisers etc
  6. The Rockstar coke was pretty cool. Just tasted like RedBull cola, but was a proper energy drink
  7. I too run carbon bars and plain Echo rubber grips and fit them dry. Use the track pump technique
  8. The other issue would be the spacing. A 135mm spaced fixed trials hub would be almost 10mm too wide for the (likely) 126mm spacing of your old roadie.
  9. http://www.sjscycles.co.uk/king-kong-219r-rear-fixed-free-track-hub-36h-prod22194/ £35.00 including 16t sprocket & lockring. They are also 130mm spacing with spacers which can be removed if necessary. If that's an old bike with a 5/6 speed freewheel, the chances are its got a 126mm rear end, so just remove the 1 spacer
  10. Not really. The Onza's were 350 stays with a +80bb. These are 360 with a +90, so it actually feels pretty similar. I like it, think it helps 'neutralise' the BB height a little
  11. Love that! Really like Vito vans but they are expensive when they go wrong. I've got a Primastar (Vivaro/Traffic) and Aviva are really the only insurer to bother with when it comes to private van insurance - so cheep As for wheels, if you can find a set cheep, they look awesome on the Merc alloys you quite often see on Veedubs etc
  12. Had this for coming up to 7 months now and the spec has changed a bit now so thought i'd throw up an updated spec/photo Rough spec as it is now: Onza Genesis forks Breath BB and 170mm Cranks with Echo SL freewheel Breath hubs on Maestro rims. Monty Pro Race tyres 180*35 stem Try-All carbon bars 05 Maggies, 4 finger blades, Cousts front + rear Let me know what you think As it was before:
  13. J.KYDD

    Coust pads

    Whatever Steve says - they aren't the same. The colour is completely different for starters. I've ridden both, and 'real' Custs are far, far superior
  14. Remember when you were threatened with being 'Banned from the town'!
  15. I had someone try and put me under citizen's arrest before because I was breaking the law, and intended to continue doing so!
  16. My god, your brake levers look almost past vertical?! How do you even hold on?
  17. Who's updated already? Worth it?
