  1. I know of riders aged 30,40,46 etc etc the world champion Kenny Belaey is 26, your no way too old to start the sport!
  2. Ill try and make it! with 1-2 other riders!
  3. You've gotta give him credit for the title bit, the first 18-32 seconds.. Best intro I've ever seen.
  4. That was really good! If you hadn't had said i wouldn't know that was a new bike, you ride it really smooth / well. Your brakes are crazy loud, TNN's ?
  5. ... EDIT: that was good! - very! I want to see more!
  6. Sorry.. but why post a thread so early? And you need to change your 'thingy thing' from 'mod' to 'stock'
  7. lol , easy way to tell them apart is: Street has a seat and trial doesn't
  8. Laurence = My first name. -- = just kinda spacing it out a bit.. Trials = obvious its the name of sport / forum
  9. Ok This means nothing to me, but to me sounds like its time for a 'piratical' . Do it then surely you have you answer if u have camera's metering tape and things?
  10. Everything i've managed to find in about 45 minuites of googleing where to buy one £136 Availability February 2010 Instant acceleration Completely new driver design with 6 pawls and springs Cassette hub has 204 points of engagement Photo is of prototype. Production hubs will have matching cones and volcano bolt covers Colors have yet to be determined Pricing will be higher than the Mini and Totem hubs This is a more expensive hub for us to manufacture, because it required to design and build all new ratchet rings, pawls, springs, and drivers, as well as another hubshell. Disk mounts!!
  11. EDIT: ^^ scrap that idea. Whole new bike i think! Things have changed a little since the 90s. If you did want to keep that bike and change minimum parts i'd say: frame, forks, sprocket, wheel(s), stem, bars. I didn't mean to sound rude in that post if it sounded like that.
  12. I can't tell you how they ride but the frame weight is '1.84kg'. You cant really say 'is it light' because different bikes will have different spec's and there for different weights so no one will be able to give you an accurate answer on that.
  13. How much dose your bike weigh ? But its stupid really, they took the seats off for 3 reasons, but even today you can but mods with a seat so why make one?
  14. Yummy Theres something i love about duel disk mod's including this one EDIT: i have a new background EDIT2: after watching the video i want to build mine up even moree!! Is yours a long or short? And what bar and stem is that?
  15. It could be, because its cold. Are you riding in cold conditions ? EDIT: Because i have poor circulation 'apparently' and when my fingers (and toes) in fact the whole of my feet/hands go yellow - whitey kinda color and they go really numb when there cold.
  16. +1 Would be better if it was in the middle of the country, somewhere like Nottingham so more people could come!
  17. *This video has either been removed from Facebook or is not visible due to privacy settings.*
  18. Brake pads for HS33 are generally loud, the better the pad the louder the sound normally. But as said above a brake booster will help with your problem.
  19. Are you sure about that? Street bikes are genially shorter with a lower BB and sometimes a seat. Natural bikes can be long or short but are mostly longer than street bikes with a higher BB and seat less mostly. It describes this in 'kenny belaey's big time trial adventure' - ill try and find the episode. EDIT: This episode about 4.45: EDIT2: answer to your question, its all down to personal preference again, kind of like tyre pressure and bar angle etc etc', You have to take your style into consideration so if your a natural rider then you might want 20" to start out unless your I'd say over 6ft then go with 26" thats what most people on the forum seem to be doing. But if your a street rider then i would suggest 24" as 24" is generally seen as a streety bikes. But as i said before its all down to personal preference.
