Sounds like a great idea to me!

Wide back wheel is better for things like preventing pinch flats, plus if you use a narrow rim on a modern trials frame and are running rim brakes it makes it harder to set them up as it's highly likely the pads might not even touch the rim face.

Nah they're deffo flat, rlat bars are flat along the middle with the ends rising slightly like Riser bars have a rise in the middle with the ends rising like this As for the wheels I'd stick with whats on there for a few months until you've got a few hundred quid spare to blow on some new ones or a decent 2nd hand set.

Define what you mean by thick and thin, do you actually mean wide and narrow rims??

Would be like shagging Jake Gyllenhaal but with long hair. Just like when you've got a mate with a fit sister, though you can see the similarities in looks between them, which means really your gay and fancy your mate.

You'd definately notice the difference with riser bars, they feel a lot nicer to ride with than flats though I'd get a single speed kit sorted first then try and pick some bars up 2nd hand off here once your validated!

Get some lovely riser bars on when you can afford as well, I really like them Phase bikes. Think I would have got one myself if I were just starting out! I'd also go for the Trialtech spacer kit and an 18t Trialtech sprocket from Tartybikes, comes in at just over £11 for the pair then you'd just need to sort a double wheel tensioner out and a lockring.

Grafting I'm afraid, only get 1 full saturday off a month so it's hit and miss!

Definately would be interested then, he's got a little specialized at the moment but would really like a proper trials bike as soon as he can get his stabilisers off so a custom would be a hell of a lot cheaper than the smallest monty!

Think a few people looked at that but couldnt get to it due to the layout of the section an the time allowed

Not really what your looking for but again I'd recommend getting them anodised like I did with your old forks. Really good finish if you prep them relatively well and for £30 returned back the same week I sent them I can't complain!!

And what you can't tell from the pic is the rock actually sloped under so if the rider didn't make it above the lip then they weren't going up it!

Pic of said rock above, not easy in the slightest!

Will do, dying to get out to be honest and the missus said the other day that I should go Shefvegas for a ride sometime, hmmmm ok love!!

Loving it, think I'm deffo down for at least 3 of the 5 british cup and hopefully a few Tyke rounds. Still can't get over the pics from Shipley Glen, that sidehop from the banking onto the steep rock was unbelievable! (If anyone has a look on the site it's the pics from shipley glen from the 8th row down, MASSIVE sidehop which only a few people managed from a steep banking on long grass, very hard!)

Freehub for that kind of thing definately

I'd say battering someone to the point where they're left with brain damage sounds like attempted murder to me and I reckon they should be charged with it!

I did buy a set of Viz ones to swap them for but where the holes have been machined out they bent in slightly (if you understand what I mean) just about where I'd need the cam to sit so I was concerned it'd split there. Might give them a going over first though with a file like you said before I spend anymore sorting it out, as I said above I'm using a Kool chain, would I be better going for a z610 when they're back in stock as I can always chuck this one on my mod??

Brand new Kool ordered from yourself I think matey not too long ago! May have to look at the H cams then and grind them down.

I'm having a few problems with the back end of my because, as I've decided to squeeze a der kaiser in the dropouts (not an easy job) I really need to be able to get the wheel lined up perfect but I can't get my cams to work well enough. I currently have monty toothed cams fitted but the biggest adjustment is just slightly too small and the only bigger toothed cams are Try Alls which have been replaced now so I'm stuck with either buying some smooth cams and grinding some teeth in or going for some chain tugs. I've had some of the gusset ones when they came with an old frame but I never used them as I didn't like the look but the trialtechs look pretty well designed, has anyone used them and can recommend? Or does anyone know of any snail cams with adjustment over 20mm that are worth buying? (Going on tartybikes modded Echo TR 135mm hub)

You've been here over 2 years, maybe try posting more than once every 12 months and you'll be validated in no time!

So if I wanted you to make a frame to take the 16" wheels off my sons bike you could do it?
