    On Christmas day I got,

    £220, 3 pairs of boxers, 2 pairs of pyjamas, deoderant and loads more.

    NO ONE GIVES A f**k

    Are you dumb?

    The topic is asking, What Did You Get For Christmas. :rtt:

  4. Bleeding Brakes

    in Beginners Trials Chat

    Pros: You get a faster reaction time.

    Cons: You will need to bleed again and again to keep air bubbles away, in the winter the piston freezes and also the water freezes expands and breaks the Magura lever and hose.

    Thats only cause my brake freezes all the time. Anyway you don't have a water bleed.

  11. Bashplate Or Bashring

    I know a bashplate is to protect your sprocket and chain etc, but i keep hitting the bit above it on the frame :angry: i have a coke can cable tied to it, but that doesnt really help. Is their anything else i could buy thats designed to do that job, or something that would look a bit better? Is it just me who has this problem?

    Thanks :D

    Cut up a bit of tyre, and cable tie it to your downtube. Looks stupid but it works.

    Alternitively you could buy a downtube protector.

  13. Stems

    Just one more question, out of all the stems you've used, which was your favorite and why?

    I'm considering getting V!Z Welded.

    Definitely the Try-All NUC. But it does cost £55 with the sloping top cap. The V!Z welded stem is fine. It feels nice and you can get a similar shape to the Try-All NUC.

    So if you want the V!Z stem then get it. It is cheap, comes in a variety of sizes and looks pretty good.

    Alternitively you could get the Trialtech Sport forged.

  15. Echo Rim Brake Or Hs33

    in Trials Chat

    Posted

    wonderd what everyone thought was better either the echo CNC rim brake or the magura HS33 because im happy to pay the extra few quid on the echo but it seems most people run the HS33 so just wondered whats the best?

    A well bled Echo CNC is very good.

    But HS33's are tough and are easy to repair.

    Someone else can explain this better i'm sure. :giggle:

    Higher angled stems put your centre of gravity back, making the front easier to lift.

    Lower stems make the rear wheel easier to control once you are on the back wheel.

    Some recommended stems that i have used are:

    Try-All NUC,

    Try-All Oversized,

    Trialtech Race,

    V!Z Welded,

    Trialtech Sport,
