  1. ..You've finally decided on a bike? Tell us what it is then ..or did you miss out on it by a fiver or something? Anyway, the question, Take a look on http://www.trashzen.com And watch Ryan Leech's tutorial video, it's excellent.
  2. Well, I think they look pretty nice but it'll cost you alot more than you should spend. As the Blade frame only costs a miniscule £150, and it weighs about .5kg less than the skull. It's awesome for the money, keep it.
  3. I agree with Liam. Just try make up your mind yourself? And that's a good thing you didn't buy the Monty, being a beginner you will be making silly mistakes so will probably snap the frame within a month.
  4. Or a Km1 Also have a look at the long A3 frames
  5. Looks great mate ...Apart from the seat. Ever thought about getting something smaller?
  6. I can't believe that only weighs 8,16kg Looks amazing, and it's one of the lightest stocks i've ever seen.
  7. Yet another FANTASTIC vid from Kieran! That was f**king awesome mate Your riding is seriously, so huge, that I think soon you will be in the CLS league
  8. Knew the video would be awesome just from looking at the title of this thread! Handlebars is my favourite song , and this is now one of my favourite's videos Fantastic
  9. That might of been how the guy had set up his front end, eg: tilted the bars forward alot, got a longer, higher rise stem than usual. But to be honest, if you're use to bmx's, and old skool trials bikes, then a mod these days will feel completely different to what you're use to. As you can probably see, mod's have changed soooo much throughout the years. From basically being a bmx frame, with different bars and much higher gearing, to what they are today, A seatless design to give as much space possible, and just about every part is completely different to anything you'd find on any different bike! And coming back to the 24's, you will find that actually LOTS of people have them. But probably just not around your area, I think there are a big few around London. But even if you don't manage to get to have a go on one, you can probably see by video's the differences in how they are rode.
  10. Aaahhh, just as I thought I would be able to go along to the London one I remember, The 20th September is British Superbikes at Silverstone, and also the date of my best friends party I promise her I would go to!
  11. No, just don't bother. It was hard enough getting my v-brake set-up properly on the new Echo rim I got for my Bird, and that already comes with a 19" rear wheel. Unless you bought one of those hubs where you can slide a disc onto without having disc mounts on your frame .. But they look shit so
  12. Horndean Trials: T-F's Highest Post average .. Borat: T-F's biggest fail
  13. Yeah, they are the same length, and yes again, they are exactly the same (Apart from the brake mounts and the fact that the Pro will be a little lighter). And on the point of lightness, you could always go for the Blade for that little bit extra. The frame is extremely light for the money, it's also very strong and looks great too.
  14. Looks like you got yourself a very sweet deal mate.
  15. Noo, you paid £110 for it ...? EDIT: And yes, the baseline is, that they are pretty rubbish.
  16. I think the correct reply to this is: It depends how good you are at sidehopping!
  17. Oh god, why did you have to make this thread? Now i'm going to get slated too Realm: Doomhammer ; Username: Balboa Realm: Chamber Of Aspects ; Username: Burninghell
  18. Firstly, I don't know how you found a T-Pro 'long' in any circumstance what-so-ever. The wheelbase is 1005mm, compared to some streety bashers you can get like the Zip which is something stupid like 1055. And you are saying you want it to be street orientated. But if you want a shorter bike, you're better off going for something designed for competition use. Like a Monty or a Koxx, but these cost the earth and aren't very strong. Maybe going for a shorter 24" would be the best idea, the bigger wheels will make the length feel alot less than it actually is.
  19. Yeah, the rips don't have 4 bolt mounts on 'em, but you could always go for 2 bolt maggie's ..? And Creepy's are good cheap tyres, rear one is very fat and should give you loads of grip
  20. Quality was a tad poor but that's because it was filmed on a phone, right? Riding wasn't too bad though, I liked some of the drops and gaps you did And ah, it's cool that you ride with Andrew, I've ridden with him and Tom only a few times and that was when he had his ZOO! How is he on the Zona? Looked pretty comfortable in that vid.
  21. I made a thread about this a while back. Don't get too excited, it's only an arcade game. Never really a chance they will release a big full version on disc.
  22. I would say the Adamant is by far better. Stronger, loaaaads lighter and looks better too IMO. Alot more rare aswell, will get noticed more
