  1. most matches are rather boring anyway but this year watching a game gets really annoying because of the nerve-racking noise in the background!!

    The Knut

    great video. I like his riding style alot!
  3. I don't know any advantages of flat bars. I prefer riser bars. they feel better and are safer for your wrists (if enough back sweep) I believe...
  4. oh ok my bad... I thought I looked like 26 but I didn't know that inspired produces 26" frames aswell, so I believed it was a 24" looking bigger haha....
  5. honestly I haven't been a huge fan of neither 24" nor brakeless trials riding, but this video is pretty mindblowing!! I didn't think that some of that stuff was even possible brakeless! nevertheless I hope ali doesn't stop riding 26", since I loved his 26" style aswell!! long story short: awesome riding, awesome video!!
  6. nice riding and editing! what kind of tyre do you use on your rear wheel?
  7. helmet & gloves. sometimes shinguards.. but during the summer months I prefer not wearing them. yesterday my thigh got scratched by my pedal, so I guess you can't get full protection anyway...
  8. I've been using the TNN LGM pads for a couple of weeks and I have to say they are better than any other pads I've used in the past! (don't know about longevity though)
  9. well honestly if you don't have alot of money than I wouldn't spent my money on something like skins if I was you! I don't want to say they're useless or anything like that, but I think it's a luxury item for those who can afford it. and it's really not something you got to have to ride well. just my opinion. if you want to buy it nevertheless, then you might want to check out some other brands that produce compression clothing. I think there are cheaper brands out there..
  10. a nice bike. but honestly these 24" bikes look like little mountainbikes for little children or something... I think I'd feel a bit uncomfortable riding this in public. no offence!
  11. you'll probably f**k up even more one day if you don't start wearing a helmet!
  12. indeed a beautiful bike! weight?
  13. I have this stem and it's 120mm 25° . but I'm not quite sure if there is only one version of it available.
  14. that onza frame is so ugly imo!! the ozonys on the other hand looks great!
  15. looks like a very decent set-up !
  16. not exactly a thing of beauty in my opinion...
  17. awesome video! quality is simply outstanding. very atmospheric aswell. you definitely bring trials-videos to another level!
  18. smooth riding! plus I've never heard that music in a trials video before - nice!
  19. looks really dope!! and it says it weights only 8.6-8.9kg!
  20. thanx for the tips! both tyres are worth considering.. what about front tyres? can I pick any light front tyre without worrying about punctures, since you land on the rear wheel most of the time? or will front wheel tap's cause punctures aswell?
  21. ok thanks for the info. I haven't thought about that yet... however I see alot of riders using RQs, so I suppose it can't be that bad!? (Giacomo Coustellier is even riding a 2.2 RQ!) well I might give it a try sooner or later or go for some other tyre. maybe the stiky lite is an option. I guess I'll have to wait for some test reports.
  22. I was referring to the regular sticky, not the light version.
  23. Well I've heard the RQ has a better bounce and it's also cheaper. I guess the try all tires have a better grip but I don't ride contests or on slippery / wet terrain. so I don't care that much about grip. But I'm not a big fan of fixing punctures all the time.. so that's why I'd like to know whether the puncutres are rather caused by low tire pressure or by the RQ quality?
  24. do you really get that many punctures with rubberqueens? or does it mainly depend on your tire pressure and the terrain you ride? because so far I haven't had any problems with my try all sticky, but I'm thinking about getting a RQ to save some weight. I mainly ride street and use a rather high tire pressure (compared to other trials riders) I think..
