  1. I agree, the next bike he has will surly be heavier than his current one. I'm curious as to why he's done it. maybe hes out to develop another carbon bike? haha
  2. http://www.trialinside.com/fin-de-collaboration-entre-monty-et-abel-mustieles/?lang=en Thoughts? Its a bit strange considering how he's just finished designing the monty carbon.
  3. Oops, i thought there was one frame between them. My bad haa.
  4. I Hate the look of it, looks old and cheap. I do agree with gilles though waaaaay to much like his frame with a modern geo. The geo does sound really nice though, i'll give it that..
  5. I'm pretty sure they're green stuff is for sponsored riders only and they occasionally pop up on tarty but other than that they're pretty rear.
  6. Tribal Zine find: "The Wingman Belaey Kenny sent us three photos of his new toy developed by GT Bicycles ! Lines cycling reminder at first that of former Koxx Giaco 'in the central part with its three tubes that connect the bottom bracket to the upper tube and rear yoke. Doubt that the rigidity must be at the rendezvous, especially the rear yoke uses square tubing and receives a massive integrated stiffener. A nice device that takes a finish so old school GT with chrome tubes and yellow stickers. Its geometry is slightly shorter and month high as the current standard that Kenny is too extreme a wheelbase of 1085mm and a box to 7 centimeters in height. Kenny announces a featherweight 1kg6 only ... " Stiff as a stick, light as a feather! " We are anxious to see Kenny ride this new bike!" Link to artical: http://tribalzine.com/?Le-proto-GT-de-Kenny-Belaey Thoughts? Personally? i thought it would be nicer, not much of a looker. Geo sounds very nice in my opinion though.
  7. The best rotor i've found for trials is the shimano deore.. and yes.. when used with a saint. I should get one really.
  8. Oh right, hadn't noticed. Either way it feels comfortable and my riding is smoother I see what you mean, thanks for the feedback, i'll try and get some more like that next time
  9. Really? i thought i looked quite relaxed. Thanks mate means alot looking to bring out an edit soon haha. How come?
  10. A mate (Kenny--trials on here) took some photos of me on the 2nd of dec' for trialsaddict.com I've picked out some of the better ones are they're in the link below. Comments would be fantastic. https://picasaweb.go...lsRide02Dec2012
  11. Had a full day of riding with this bar angle. I love it.
  12. So its short notice but im riding on my own at the moment, if anyone wants to join me, text me 07979413465 and i'll let you know where i am Will be in til about 430
  13. I just wanted to try the angle out, purely curiosity, i think my best angle is inline with the stem.
  14. A custom frame? You almost want some custom geo'ed bars. I always use that face haha. even if it does feel odd using it on here.
  15. No i haven't. It shouldn't make too much difference though, all the angles and positions etc are still the same when tilted back/forward if you see what i mean. Well.. 1 i was trying to see if there was a stem already out there with that sort of geo 2 i wanted to see if there were any benefits from running it like this, as appose to upside down? because when i ride with my bars like that it kills my wrists. i rode for half an hour last night and my wrists are still cracking and hurting now. 3 i was bored.
  16. No :L Also only work 15 hours a week. Sooo.. yeah aha.
  17. I guess i'm just sort of putting this out there as such.. or finding if one or something close to this geometry is made. After trying the proper carthy bar angle last night and almost breaking my wrists because of the geometry of the bars i went to find out what geo stem you would need to have your bars at a normal angle but in the same place.. So after doing the this (picture below) i found (if running the trial tech carbon bars like me) you'd need to run a 150mmX13deg stem but upside down. Is there anything like that out there at the moment? if you could run your bars normal again would it have benefits? Yes my workings out arn't neat.
  18. Its barrow farm in chelmsford, essex, UK.
