  1. I am validated now thanks for the vote.

  2. I Had a loose crank for about 3 weeks. I had to keep tightening it up every 5 - 10 mins for 3 weeks. then 2 days ago it stayed tight and it hasn't come loose since. Is this normal for trials cranks.
  3. You're really lucky to be sponsored by Heatsink Bikes. But you deserve to be sponsored by them. You're a brilliant rider

  4. With knobbles you tube. It is the winter and there is ice. You need as much grip as possible.
  5. Heatsink Snowy's in CNC backings, with a tad of tar. A friend of mine has that exact setup and his brakes are brilliant!
  6. Preferabley I would get the Neon Bow. But I Think that the Onza Ice might be better.
  7. Are you getting a new Ice frame?

  8. I've ridden a skull. It feels amazing with 09 try-all rage bars and a try-all nuc stem
  9. Nah i don't think so. My mate has one and when you do hops and other tricks it feels very heavy. Another thing, take the seat off because when you sit on it your arse will hit the tyre!! EDIT: You should have got a rim grind, front and back, and some TNN v-pads. Then if you try anything you won't kill yourself
  10. http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?pr...;category_id=64 http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?pr...;category_id=64 http://www.trials-uk.co.uk/product.aspx?productid=1824 http://www.trials-uk.co.uk/product.aspx?productid=2557# Hope these help. Don't think about buying any of them until you measure your fork barrel length ETC. Or you will have to spend more money on new parts
  11. 24" are better for street riding (Danny Mac is a street rider and he rides a 24"). I'm 13 and i prefer a mod bike. But as other posters have said a short stock may fit the bill.
  12. Well. i dicieded to take my brake off and give it a bleed. as i undid the grub screw on the magura all the threads came out with it. then my new crank arrived and it keeps coming loose. i ordered a new lever for the magura. it came, and then i bled it. it is the worst bleed in the world! then i tried a fakie nose manual and i fell off into the side of my house and took a chunk out of my shoulder. the past month has been the worst month in the history of my life!aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
  13. Doesn't look that strong. But it is probably VERY light
  14. I've never dealt with Trials-Uk before. but judging by other posters opinions, they seem sound.
  15. It is better than any other onza frame because, it is lighter, it is a better all rounder (i.e natural,street), and the geo suits many riders preferences
  16. Look on ebay for a mod bike. Mod's are better for beginners because they are easier to chuck around and are usually light. Try having a look at this. It looks great! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Onza-Blade-Trials-Bi...=item3357a75adc
