I'v go a short Echo Lte 09, really is a great frame, the only thing I've noticed is, the bottom bracket area flex's quite abit, but it hasn't been a problem. Also, have a validation vote from me to help you on your way

Well, he wears plimsoles, I wear Fila race drivers boots, very thin soles and lightweight, they're awesome.

I have my levers pointing pretty much straight down

Hey man, I was in kinda the same boat. Started trials riding when I was 24. I never thought about it to be honest, my mates rode trials, so I decided too. Its nearly 2 years on, and I'm nearly 26 now, and I never looked back. Trials is now my life, lol!! Do wish I'd started earleir, only because by now I would be amazingly good, heh!

Read the rules mate - http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/index.php?showannouncement=3&f=13

Be there or be square!!

I get that sometimes, had a really bad day last week, couldn't do anything, and got really frustrated. Then, stupidly, decided to practise my up to fronts, and faceplanted on the first one It happens to all of use sometimes, so keep you chin up bud, if it aint going your way, take a break an come back to it

Maybe he should wear a helmet...?

My old Ciguena used tensioners, an they were pants. Used my mates Hydroxx as a guide, measured up, drilled and threaded holes on my dropouts, an bought a set of TR cams. Never had a problem with them. Using TR cams on my Echo now, and haven't had to re-adjust them since I built the bike, they rule!

Yes they take a 19" rim on the back. Yes, they take one the same style as koxx/echo (NOT Monty/Neon) They use snail cams, but can be run with tugs too (Horizontal drop outs) Hope that helped buddy, and welcome to the darkside!! lol

I use Six Six One Veggie shin pads, cant fault 'em

Lol, Winner!

That was awesome, beautiful video!

Yea, the ride is amazing! Absolutely loving it, although she has earned a few scratches, but thats all part and parcel of trials I suppose, lol. Thanks for the comments by the way

Weighs in at 9.2Kg, so not too shabby

Lol, your right, sorry, been a long day THIS LINK £21.40 then, still cheaper than a new frame/having them repaired

Go here: CLICKY £20.60 for 20 M4 helicoils and all the tools to fit them (its very easy). Can't say fairer than that, I always make sure I've got these lying around, just in case!

Yea I know, but I got given it for free, so I'm not complaining Beggers can't be choosers!

Giro Indicator, £29.99 from your local Halfords. Used one for a while, real comfortable, light and seems really strong. Deffo recommend one!

Hey guys, this is my new ride! Just upgraded from my Ciguéna 20", and lovin' it!
