I do, but not like riding round a taped off field. More as a road bike I can ride through the woods on. Though I've just converted mine to 'normal' mtb bar...see how that rides
Boardman CX team just if you're wondering
-
I've finally got round to getting some photos of my build. After months of yes...no..maybe..its too expensive, I went for it. So glad I did, rides really nice feels
Only issue I had was chain tension, currently running 22-14 and was a little slack. File a bit of the tensioner and it's good to go (note pics pre-file)Spec if you want:

Not sure if these have been talked about before but: http://superstar.tibolts.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=42&products_id=127 or
As far as I can see these are the same as Inspired/Nukeproof. I love mine and only £37, however I'm going for these now just for the through pins: http://superstar.tibolts.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=42&products_id=194
The first ones take the same spares as Nukeproof so very easy to get

I know it may seem a bit dodgy to some but it's looks legit. I doubt Ashton would comment on it if wasn't 100% for real.

Tried to do it properly but failed...

Ok well lets go back to the main topic, so does anyone have any news on the arcade.
If any one have have taking pics of it i'll be happy to see them!!
There's a bunch of pics in here: http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/topic/177684-inspired-arcade-cro-mo/
Mostly from Tartydays, I don't think there's many photos lurking as inspired are in Ninja Stealth mode with any info

Bit of a bump but still.... Off Jack Meek's FB.
-
Just re watched the Inspired at Dressler/Prague videos. Noticed Ali runs the Team forks on his Arcade... broke the originals? Weight? or maybe just a personal thing?
Just curious to their set ups -
No WiFi for a day and come back to this... wow... guess I'd better get saving
One question though, why not go for a 45/45 integrated headset like the BMX's? Then you can just drop the bearings in, instead of banging in the cups. Not complaining just curious. -
I like the name. Is there a release date? Is it still being tested?
When emailing around I got "pretty late 2013" . But that wasn't a certainty, just a rough guess.

MASSIVE BUMP
Update:
Photo from Jonny Jones facebook.
Any one got a full bike pic?-

3mins 10 secs in. One big reason not to do it
Plus the next clip tooOnly the nitro circus do it properly. Will find the videos. They backflip them on megaramps...

Second the fox flux. Had my for couple of years. Road, trials and mtb. Fits perfect even with my large(61cm) and annoying shaped head.

Hi, nice bike had an Ashton myself although the newer effect. You've got a half link chain on there, break it/rejoin it the same as a regular chain.
P.S: The chain is, as far as I can see, is on upside down and back to front.
-
That's very different, but very nice.
Kind of reminds me when you see oil in water on the road... maybe its just me.
Anyway, nice bike
-
How about these? Not even out yet so I don't know about quality, but they are spec'ed on Transitions full build jump bikes so...

Edit: For those too lazy to use the links, Kore Rivera bars in either 65mm or 80mm rise, 10 back and 2 up, 720mm/28.35" wide

I don't know if I missed this earlier in the post but, still with Hope? No team green anywhere....although still looks like a hope stem in the video
Looks great anyway

Just found one of my old bent ones. It's an 'A' type. (Well its got an 'A' stamped into it although mines slightly different shape to the Halfords one...)
So;

Reminds me of the 'Replicator' from Star Trek when he said "ask Siri for a steak"...
I know charge have printed dropouts, but will this mean bikes will be a lot cheaper if anyone can simply print out an Inspired or echo? Or will the big companies be forced to print 'better' products

Opps Sorry... :$

From Pinkbike;Three machines, three riders, and three nights full of filming in one hall. It all created this short video, showing the strength of the Czech trials scene.<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/56572254?portrait=0" width="500" height="281" frameborder="0" webkitAllowFullScreen mozallowfullscreen allowFullScreen></iframe> <p><a href="http://vimeo.com/56572254">ALL WE TOGETHER</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/matejicek">Martin Matejicek</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.</p>Edit: Currently trying to tidy this up, any ideas? -
Interesting video I found on Vitalmtb. Here's the description:
"The Gibello house in Albertville was about to be demolished, so Leo Nobile and Jeremy Brosset took the opportunity to ride it first.
Leo is riding his pro model (24") from TMS: The Combo Leo."
Sorry if it's a repost.
Edit: Here's his bike, thoughts?

No-one going to mention Kenny on a Hyper trials frame?
He's posted a bunch of videos of him riding it on FB/IG, he mentions it to be more all-rounder.
Wonder if it'll ever hit production or remain proto only like their Dual Slalom and DH bikes...
