just means rear wheels are abit cheaper and its easer to replace a front freewheel over a full hub any trials cranks will be fine as long as u have enough threads on them

ok so some people have had problems with them and others found them sound ive also spoken to tarty who have informed me that there was a few bad ones when they first released them but they have improved them for the newer ones im gonna take the risk and get one and ill let people know if they are any good
-
i have some monty spray and use it when i ride natural as it works better than tar when ur rims get damp or wet but when i ride street i use tar as its easyer to apply and ur not waiting for the stuff to dry

What Is The Best Psi For Your Bike "26" "20"
old_man_dan replied to bigc's topic in Beginners Trials Chat
depends what im riding if im riding natural then abought 15 front and maybe 20 rear if im riding street probly 20 in the front and 25 rear -
yeh 180grit and it wil only take abought 5 mins if that. Im talking from alot of experiance 5 years in car body repair and spraying
-
i wouldent recomend 60/80 grit it would be too harsh on a alloy frame. Your best bet would be to use 180grit wet then use 400 wet to get a better finnish, then when u spray only go in light coats the trick is to get the paint at a stage where it looks wet but dosnt run that wil give u the smooth finnish you are after. Take some time to practice spraying and learn how the paint adheres to the frame its the same with anything a bit of practice will help get the desired result.

Ok im looking for some new bars that are simular to my current Onza carbon's (flat) and im loking for some riser's with the same width and sweep but a higher rise any ideas my budget is around £50
