So what is the issue and what should we look for?
-
One of my spanish friends had exactly the same when he tried them!
-
There is one famous pro trials rider who breaks his rear axle on his Crewkerz Jealousy approximately every 3 weeks. He is the only one who does
-
That I did not know. Even more impressive then!
-
That guy has progressed so much! He still pedals like a 20" for bunny hops to rear though... Also jealous of his rims!

20 inch riders love the freehub because of the reduced drag, they say it's a game changer. The Clean one is highly unreliable. Some 26 inch comp riders like Hermance or Carthy have tried that sort of hub and say it doesn't change anything for them. Don't know what they mean by that though... You can get Hope hubs to fit trials frame but you need to modify them for mods. Also Crewkerz still believes in "standard" freewheels so far.

How surprising from Rockman ðŸ¤

May I ask what this is? TV program? Movie?

What HS33 calipers do you recommend? Magura or Echo?
Canardweb replied to La Bourde's topic in Trials Chat
Echo's calipers are shorter to reduce the clutter at the cranks' ends. I would recommend Magura's as they are in my experience flawless. Never had experience with Echo's so can't really tell... -
I actually missed your questions about the Cleep 20". Don't know how... There was no Cleep 20" before the Cleep 2. The 20" and the 26" were not made in the same factory. The 26" was made in a very high end factory.
-
So finally changed the stem for something I am used to with a Trialprod 145*25 stem. The WAW stem was too low for me and made the bike excellent on the rear wheel, excellent for front wheel moves but uncomfortable for moves to two wheels and for the rest... No surprise as that stem is intended for stock riding. Much prefer how the bike handles now!
-
Lack of flexibility? We need to meet it sounds like you're talking about me! So much pain because of that btw... I have had a Cleep 2 in size large when they were first available. That thing was way too long... That's why I took a medium frame straight after. I never built it until recently and that's the frame you saw on my 26 that I no longer ride. It's for sale too. I perfectly agree a medium is perfect in terms of riding. I always wanted something around 1075 when I was riding 26" after that Cleep 2 for the exact reasons you stated. And that's probably why I enjoy mod so much.
-
Hello, if you are talking about the 26", then only the decoration has changed between both models. May I know why you wonder? Have a nice day bro!

Mack hubs are well known in the track world. They are pimp and really quality!
-
Same after @aener said he couldn't find a pic of the original frame. Weird as I recall these were popular.
-
Never said he wasn't. I am just advertising this new frame from TMS. After some research and contacts I found out these frames were not viable if they were released as they were by Scorpio. Let's hope he does change some things so these frames can be good and long lasting because they look really good.
-
I asked Thibault if he wanted to keep them and said he didn't want to remove them. The most probable reason why is he probably can't.
-
If you even don't know, then that's a really uncommon frame!
-
Indeed, Frank was super nice also and very involved, maybe too much actually. His design are still used, but as you may have understood, more as generic frames you can sell to companies rather than exclusive frames. I have seen the 20" ridden yesterday but couldn't take pics. Both main tubes are bent near the headtube which kills the look for me. The Karr is known for breaking at the headtube gusset, so I hope they will fix that!
-
I have not always been but I am a natural guy and this one is awesome. Great spots and great lines.
-
I am so bad at this exercise but I swear I have already seen that. I thought it was an Adamant but it's clearly not. Looks kind of like a Zoo Pitbull but I don't think it is...
-
Yes they are testing the Hope Pro V5 Enduro hub with a fixed sprocket. Jack has as well as Hermance. They said it made no difference to them but 20" riders said it's a game changer to have the freewheel on the back and having so few rolling resistance. Clean has made one hub but it breaks insanely fast giving you the horrible chain snapping feeling. Comas' hub seems to hold really well but it's still a prototype (edit: it's not, my bad... https://www.trial-bikes.com/en/comas-rear-disc-freehub-p-538980.html ) About the frame, it's a Scorpio Karr. Last year the owner passed away and the new one decided to sell their design to some customers. That's how Thibault got it. I knew the 20" reminded me of something but couldn't figure what. They are awesome frames and they might get an update when they are finally released and get internal cable routing. They should be out beginning of next year. @La BourdeI don't forget you but Christian is currently in Taiwan and pretty busy. I'll come back to you when I get to see him in November .

I really enjoy watching him ride. I hope some of you will enjoy it too. Here is the latest one but there are tons of vids on his channel and I love them all. Hope you enjoy! What is your favourite one?
