  1. Aint gotta clue all i know is there monty, they dont have disc mount. The ZOO! forks good then...? And just a little stupid question here..but when you buy brand new forks, you no the top cap with the bolt, well iv looked at pictures on tarty and there is just a hole nothing to screw into? so how would you go about fitting them? Cheers Luke
  2. Yea going to order one on monday. Cheers for the comments
  3. Yea just seen thanks. Cheers
  4. I Train for javelin and we have to do loads of plyometrics and bounding also alot of olympics lifting e.g Snatch, Cleans, Squats. All this builds explosive power in your legs which is what you need in javelin and trials..You need to concentrate on exercise's that you have to do quite quickly which makes you muscles adapt to work really fast and give high octain power in one serge. Hope this helps anyone Thanks luke. This is my javelin throw if anyone is intrested last year.
  5. Thanks alot Thanks alot for all the great comments, means alot to no that i am doing ok.
  6. No worries . And yes of course mikey has been helping me out loads, And he also sorted me out with a bike so thanks to him. Cheers for the comments Luke Yes that sounds good, i live about 11miles away from mansfield takes me about 30min to get there. PM your msn, phone number or something and we could sort something out. Thanks for comments Luke
  7. Thanks alot for the comment, means alot. Haha old school sounds good. Cheers Luke
  8. Hello everybody, I made a topic not so long ago about Sidehop Help, Well i seemed to have figured the landing part out now and here is a short video of it. Sidehop Video I have been riding for 4weeks now and trials is new to me so comments would be great. Thanks Luke
  9. I already have odd bodged them, With tie wraps and a lace seems to be holding ok for sidehops but that is about it :| and they are monty forks. I was thinking of buying the ZOO python forks off TartyBikes. Cheers Luke
  10. I will definatly look into that, heard alot of great things about TartyBikes if i ever need anything i will definatly be ordering from there. Thanks for you help Luke
  11. Got a camera, So should have a video on tomorow night Thanks luke
  12. There monty i think. And yes just the top left hand side has threaded, and nobody does helicoil where i live so the other option is buy new forks Thanks for the replys Luke
  13. I understand completely where you are coming from, no evidence:). I will try and get a video up, its just i have nothing to record with..My phone is an iphone 3g (no video recorder) only camera. So i will have to borrow a video camera and get it on youtube or do a frame by frame camera photo or something. Thanks Luke
  14. Hello there, I am having a problem with my mod forks as one of the 4 bolt magura mounts has threaded. Can you suggest what to do ? I have been thinking about just buying brand new forks, Just wonderd if there is anything else you can do? Thanks Luke
  15. Ok i will do il record one and put it on this week
  16. Thanks alot for your comments. And why would i lie to be honest, if you do lie then your only cheating yourself no one else. Do you think i should get a video of my sidehop, wouldnt that help you alot more in analyzing my weaknesses? thats cool you did racing befor hand, i did a little bit of bmx now and again but never serious or anything like that at all. And yes i will tone it down abit instead of pushing already when i need to work on the essentials of trials instead of going mad. Thanks
  17. Ok then. Thanks alot, I thought i was doing not so good to be fair as there are no trials riders where i live and no starters anywhere else to compare myself with Cheers
  18. thanks alot for helping me out and yes the day i got the bike i could do one side of the rode to the other and now i can do them for aslong as i want / until i run out of steam. I will try to work on these things for next time. Do you think i am doing ok atm like doing my bar hieght or should i be going higher at this stage (3weeks) i am fairly new to trials and dont really no if i am doing well or not? I mostly ride by myself or with bmx peopler and sometimes on a weekend go into mansfield to meet other riders Thanks Luke
  19. Liked the video, intro was different but cool Keep up the good work
  20. Thanks alot for that reply, and yes been on all those sites and on youtube. yes i ride with someone alot better than me but not all the time, i think the trouble is i have no balance because when i hop to do it i do one pedal kick then striaght up like you watch some people and they stay on the back wheel for ages and then hop. I can pedal kick forever lol that is not a problem just standing still on the back wheel seems to be or tiny hops to stay in one place then up so i have to do it really quick not getting full height. And thanks i have been riding for 3 and abit weeks i am 6ft 2 and half and i also throw the javelin 62 meters so i have power its just technique. Thanks Luke
  21. Hello all, I have been riding for about 3 and abit weeks and can sidehop just under bar hieght of my mod. The only problem is that i tend to put my foot down, out of about 50attemps i will land it only 3times and the rest i put my foot down. Is there any tips or suggestions that anyone could give to me. Thanks Luke
