That sounds awesome! Wish I lived nearby for it!!

I run about 35psi on my mod

The wheelbase is the distance between the centre of the front and rear wheels, bb means bottom bracket height. If you can imagine a straight line drawn from the front to the rear axle the bottom bracket height is measured from that line. And any bike would be good for you, it's all down to what you prefer, what you feel comfortable riding, how big your budget is, what type of riding you'll be doing, etc....

Quick google came up with this http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=9335 I can never find what I want when I use the forum search function!

Yes but check your actual email address linked with the account!

I modded an evo mount to do it on my heavy tools, can show you how it was done if you like or I could email you a how to on it??!!

How much you after?? Which one is it?

Yeah I bled it properly, been riding bikes years and my dads a mechanic so deffo know that we cleaned the pads and disc up properly. Gonna just stick it on ebay now and get a mono trial instead!

Then I'd say there's definately something blocking the pipe somewhere which will be causing the vacuum effect making the bleed nipple suck the brake fluid back in.

All I can suggest is that there must be a blockage somewhere in the bleed nipple or it's not opening fully. Is there fluid coming down the pipe?

Could you tell me exactly what your doing step by step and I'll see if I can spot anything?

Are you following the instructions off hopes website?? There's nothing supposed to come out the master cylinder, thats where you add the brake fluid!

Not unless you read the new members guidelines and get validated first mehewd!

If you want some sleepers you wanna find someone who works on the railway as they can book used ones out of p-way (the track workers) yard for nowt, as long as you've got something to load them onto!

Which KMC chain have you been using as there's quite a few. I've been using the Z610 HX 3/32" and had no problems at all as it's the one tartybikes recommended to me!

Problem is the standard pads have all of a sudden gone terrible, and tried everything I can to get them sorted, I've cleaned the pads and disc, bled the brake, lubed the pistons and nothing seems to be able to fix it! Think I'm gonna sell it now and get a mono trial instead!

Good to hear you've sorted it, deffo didn't wanna be splashing out a fortune if it's just a temporary fix!

Wasn't tryin to be a cock with that lmgtfy jobby, just never used it for owt before! The only one I found that'd work with normal ISIS cranks is that FSA one but it is very pricey! Just out of interest did you buy the frame brand new or 2nd hand??

An owl hooting outside!

Have you tried here?

You shouldn't need to grease it if its fresh out the box, just screw on and go ride!

Whats the geo of the Pitbull you ride at the moment? The 09 GU LE has similar geo to the pitbulls over the years as you can get both a +35 and +60 BB height which both have almost identical geo to 2 incarnations of a pitbull. And it comes in under budget at £279!

Looks like I may have to change the pads on my hope but don't know whether to stick with some boggo hope pads or if there are any pads that are good for trials? Only asking as I can't be bothered messing about selling the brake and then buying a new one if I can just get some pads and fit them!

Well I gave it a bleed and thats sorted the lever travel problem and they feel slightly better but still don't work whatsoever. Tomorrow I shall be properly cleaning up the pads and disc and trying again, if that doesn't work it'll be new disc and pads time!
