This fella who stole your bike seems like a right tw@t, also whats with all the people on here saying its your fault. How is it your fault some one stole your bike. I'd go f**king mental if some one treated any thing of mine with the lack of respect this fella has shown. Good luck getting your bike back.

I like this it looks smart. Im tempted to get Zoo for my new bike, but im not got nearly enough money yet...

1. That was a cool little vid hope you got a good grade for it. I can clearly see you've got a good level of skill. Might I enquire as to how long you've been riding? 2.Yes the Onza Blade is alright I've got one at the moment, but to be honset I wish I had waited and bought something a bit better. Just because the build qaulity on the Blade isnt that great and as I havent been riding too long I can be a bit rough on it.

natural for me. I just wish there was more of it near Northampton.
-
I dont listen to music whilst riding, but I listen to Punk alot. Anything from 70's (the clash, stiff little fingers, uk subs etc) right through to the modern stuff (Rancid, the rabble, distillers, US bombs etc). I Also like plenty of Ska, Reggae, Rockabilly, Psycobilly, Rock, Dub, Folk, Metal also I love the Progidy.

Love Trials Forum But Love Riding More!
martin555 replied to jake tyson's topic in Beginners Trials Chat
That pretty much sums it up for me too, I can spend ages trying to get something and then when I finally nail it. It's such a good feeling. Equally I can spend loads of time trying to get something I know I can already do but just can’t make it happen. This is incredibly frustrating. Overall though it’s a good sense of achievement puling stuff off. -
I'm gona try and go as long as I'm not working. I should know tommorow as thats when next weeks rotor is up.
-
I really wouldnt trust the front of that frame it looks dodgy. It probably isnt but it would just be in my mind whilst riding.
-
Thats why I couldnt get through then. Its all good I'll just call again tomorrow.
-
Cheers felas, i swear i could watch natural vids all day. Watching all them kept me entertained and stoped extreme boredom setting in ha. cheers again :]
-
I dont know if i should post this here or not so if its in the worng place please move it. If you've seen an awsome natural vid please drop a link for it here. Iv always prefered natural stuff its the whole reason I started riding and I'm fed up of seeing endless street vids. bring on the rocks! :]

I wouldnt be so worried about having a trials bike with a seat. 90% of trials bikes with seats on are too low or small to sit on anyway. Theres no way you'll want to ride around on it anyway, because as some one mentioned earlier the gearing is way way too low for riding about.
-
Seems most people use a 2 bolt booster then. Ill probably order one tomorrow got to measure my bike to make sure it fits first...also tarty havent got any of the cheaper 4 bolt ones in stock. Anyways cheers for all the help on such a small question.

I'm pretty sure he used to compete in bike trials before he did moto trials.

It pisses me off when new bikes get built up and they haven’t bothered to grease the parts. Yes looking after your bike will make it last longer but the main reason my Blade isn’t holding up so well is because I haven’t been riding very long and I’m not very smooth. I’m guessing the reason your Comp has taken a beating is much the same

This fela just hit the nail on the head!

To be honest I think the Onza bikes in the 2009 range tend to come with some crap parts on them. I’ve had my Onza Blade for a month an a bit. Its already making some seriously dodgy noises, sounds like the crank is on its way out and in the first week of owning it I had to get new front hub because the bearings went in the one that was on it. Luckily the shop just gave me the wheel out of another blade. Much like you I haven’t been impressed with its stupidly high maintenance. However it is a cracking to ride and despite all that I still love it.

What Foot Foward Do You Pedal Kick With .?
martin555 replied to Mission Prodigy Trials.'s topic in Trials Chat
I was thinking of posting a topic about this the other day. Anyways I'm left foot foward. :] -
As the description says small question so I posted it in here. I need to purchase a break booster for my Onza Blade and I was just wondering what people recommend? Its got a Magura on the back. I was also wondering whether I need to get a 2 bolt or 4 bolt booster?
-
Creepy Crawlers are good. However they do wear pretty quick because there so soft and sticky.
-
I would strongly suggest you don’t use WD40 as its designed to clean off lubricants such as oils and grease. Basically all your doing if you spray it into your front hub is killing the bearings.
-
I thought the red tyres looked pretty good. Anyway red or black tyres nice bike you got there.
-
good stuff, a couple of times you landed right on the edge of them pallets and it looked like they might tip over. but good video :]
