  1. This may sond boring but when i first got my onza rip i was worned against discs because if you are a new rider and go to jump and miss you can shatter the disc.At least with v breaks you have the wheel to hit first I hit my hubs a lot whilst learning . just a thought for you to think .
  2. try to use teflon spray normal oil stays wet it will pick up dust and crap and damage the piston and seals teflon drys not sure of silicone never tried it
  3. Alright fellas hope you all well sounds like a good one again ill be there all being well. what time you getting to spar for
  4. Could be that your chain is slipping on your free wheel if its a new bike make sure the chain is set up properly or if an older one the chain may have streched.I found to test your free wheel is to support your bike hold the breakes while on it peddle backwards and then go forward with preasure if it slips or "clunks" its a good chance it is your free wheel but on expieriance try you your chain first. Or your chain tentioner make sure its inline if you have one.just looked at your bike kabuki mono same as me its the chain mail me if you want.
  5. stick with this site some really good lads to talk to and to ride with JT helped me a lot at the start full of info but every body full of advice best of luck . Look on the pedal kick thread some cool videos on there may give you some inspiration (ha hope that's the right word) and as for your first bike I would not get out fancy or mega pricey my own experience is it will only get bent and scratched .
  6. I started as a complete beginner I would say that starting on a 20" was a good start I learnt to do the basics very quick and found it easier to go on to a 26" I was also informed that 26" was more for street were as 20" is for actual trials.
  7. I have to say when i started out and was looking for a mod some good advice was to ges v/hs33. If you jump and miss there is less chance of breaking v/hs33 then disk. I also use plazmatic crv bloks and teflon cables and they not let me down yet.
  8. Now then I aint been riding for long but been out with a few lads and found that they were stopping to ree tar it most of the time. I found a good set of blocks on normal v breakes work fine I also got teflon cables so it does'nt stretch I use plazmatic crv.In wet and cold weather they been hard wearing and grip all the time.
  9. I should be there and may be bringing a mate as well. damon what time you getting to mikes or give me a place to meet you both what time you leaving hul.
