  1. I was led to believe that the senior members got picked a while ago and the idea of adding more had kind of dissapeared. Suppose unless we knew what kind of stuff goes on in SM chat us lowly members can't really comment on how useful it would be to promote certain people to said status.

    Sounds like disc may be a bit ropey especially if it skips on more than one DVD player, my laptop doesn't even show up as if there's a disc in the drive but it plays perfectly on my PS3.
  3. Sorted it now, bought one of these beauties instead off franksx2005
  4. Out of those I'd say Simtra first, Onza cleaner 2nd, MAD 3rd and other onza last choice. Especially considering the Onza cleaner is £550 brand new as seen here http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?product_id=10276&category_id=47
  5. Like I said if your not desperate it might be worth holding out till you're a full member on here as you'll be able to pick up a pretty well specced bike for starting on for anything between £200-350 in the for sale section. Don't know how well clued up you are on trials stuff so it might be worth having a look on www.tartybikes.co.uk at some of their video guides! Hope this is all of help to you!
  6. 2nd hand is definately the way to go for a 1st bike and with upto £750 to spend you'll have no problems finding a decent bike. Your best places to look are ebay and when you get voted to a full member in the for sale on here. After a quick scan on ebay right now I'd recommend the following to look at in no particular order- http://cgi.ebay.co.u...=item2eb05dd0a0 http://cgi.ebay.co.u...=item336184feb6 http://cgi.ebay.co.u...=item2a0acb7844 Though that Simtra is currently a bargain the Onza would be a good frame to start from and upgrade over time. EDIT; Found another http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Onza-Cleaner-2010-26-Trials-Bike-/320598952588?pt=UK_Bikes_GL&hash=item4aa52fca8c
  7. At 6'5" I'd definately recommend a 26" (stock). Whats your budget? Have you ever ridden one before??
  8. A better one would be to pretend to put some cash in an envelope right next to a postbox and then try to post it so it falls out as you walk away then see what happens!

    Just watching it now I'm home and I'm immensely inspired and also jealous at all the great riding spots. Think the mod might take a back seat for a while whilst I start really practicing on some sidehops and going to front wheel! Awesome vid guys, love it!
  10. The page has been edited since I put that post above as it now says at the bottom I'd say thats a bargain!

    Ahhhh!

    Borrow some cash and buy this http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=156086
  12. What a complete waste of time that is then, why on earth would you buy a cnc'd lever that's heavier than the standard 2 finger and less comfortable?! Oh well, my search for a new blade continues!!
  13. Does anyone know if they are 2 or 4 finger?? don't really see the point if they're only 2 finger as they weigh more than a standard one!
  14. Why not get some maggy and disc forks then you can run either, or both!
  15. Just had a look rock n roll and it says the brakes are £129, I assume thats each, otherwise they are a very good price!

    I was gonna rip it onto my iphone to watch this afternoon at work but my bloody laptop wouldn't detect the disc when I put it in!
  18. Our local motorbike club had the same problems with getting their bikes nicked so they had a steel cage wall with double padlocked door fitted inside the garage/storage unit to keep the bikes safe. Thieves solution? They stripped the bloody roof and lifted them out!
  19. Can't find your wanted topic but spotted this on fleabay, bit pricey I know but thought I'd give you a heads up anyway! http://cgi.ebay.co.u...=item53db7f0838

    Onza T-Bird

    But if he's going to swap all the bits off the t bird and onto a modern frame then what's the problem??
  21. What kind of stuff is in a brake compound just out of interest?
  22. I'm the opposite, coming from stock to mod I found getting my python straight to rear and holding it is so much easier and I can do a lot higher on my mod though that could be down to the BB height of my stock!
