  1. put one leaning up against another back to back and then hook it and then you will have to get over the top aswell. like this > /\ chris
  2. ah, i think i put to muchon, how do you get in off ? can you get it off with a damp cloth ? chris
  3. i have just got a new brake and wa riding brakeless for a while and when i put my brake on i noticed that the rim was buckled, so i pu my other wheel off my other bike on it temporarely and dent want to grind it so i put a bit of tar on, its crap, at times its good but then othe times it just slips like you havnt got the brake on :/ i have rode it for 10 mins and i fell off the back 3 times because its just so unpredictable. is thisnormall ? have i put to much on or to less ? chris
  4. i cant even do some of that on a trials bike lol i can do the backflip of course but some of the other stuff looks well hard real good riding proper job chris
  5. i have just got a echo cnc brake but it was a front one and i want to use it on the back and i need to put my back hose on it, i have got the front hose off the echo fittings but i dont know how to get my back one back on :/ i put the hose in hot water to make it go a bit flexible but it didnt realy do anything, anybody got any ideas or know how to do it ? chris
  6. i know that a braided crossover on a maggy makes alot of difference and i guess that they would, same princaple as a motorbike brake but smaller. chris
  7. if you feed a chicken popcorn seads then they exsplode because there stomach is hot and the pop corn pops in the heat , expands and blows them up so if you want to kill a chicken, give it pop corn seads lol if you drink a pint of milk before you drink alchohol it stops you from being sick, it lines your stomach. chris
  8. what about a 24" ? there lighter than a stock (if the right build) but bigger than a mod so you will fit better and the front ends on 24" is higher than mods or stocks, higher gear ratio as well and if you wanted you could get a frame built by marino and make it a prety big 24" if you want. you can use 24" for general biking aswell, like i have done dirt jump, long distance (would recomend it) bmx (of course and a bit of down hill (that hurts) and the only thing there not good for is speed if your compering it to a road racing bike lol. basicy there a lot mor practicle. i say go 24".
  9. dont you hate it when your doing something which uses a controller or something that uses batterys to control it then the batterys run out and you have no batteries in the house. i have found that by taking the batterys out and licking both ends of both batterys gets a little bit more life out of them. basicly just write a intesting fact that will help us in life lol. chris
  10. one of my favourite tricks is hopping on the front wheel, try an endo then hop on the front wheel. 180 endoes, wheelie in a circle, pedal hop onto curbs, keep practicing back hops, try fakies. just look at some trials videos and see what they do and try to change what there doing to make it a bit easier, this will then teach you to be creative aswell chris
  11. well tartybikes does set the bike up for you, but if your prety exsperianced with setting up bikesthen gt from somewhere where its a cheap as possible. chris
  12. is your wheels buckled ? are they the old evo adapters or new ? if there the old ones like these http://www.magura.com/uploads/pics/zubehoer/EvolutionadapterG_dd4f96_391a6d_01.jpg then there ment to have washers underneath to stop them from moving but if there the new ones then are they set up right ? try pulling the slaves all the way out, have youblead you brake since youv had it ? if you have then there is probably air in there so that will be why the brake isnt working to well. chris
  13. i have got a effect and its the fist trials bike i have had and to be honet it was good walst i was learning but now im getting beter and doing bigge things its not so good. i wold go for the onza zoot, alot cheaper, better spec and the front brake on the ashton is prety shocking to be honest and the bars are very narrow and the gearing is all wrong but it dosnt take much to replace these parts, oh and the wheels on the ashton are crap, i did a little hop 180 onto a bank and didnt quit twist enough and the wheel buckled i would deffinately choose a zoot over a ashton or maybe a second hand inspired or something like that. chris
  14. just have a look on ebay and see whats on there, has shane got any old levers or anything ? what are you slaves like ? if there broke aswell i have some spare, and a back hose. give me a buzz if you want them chris
  15. well what weekend ? because if no one else is coming this weekend then is it worth it with just 2 or shall we wait a fiew weeks until a fiew more can ride ? chris
  16. any one up for riding swindon next weekend ? chris
  17. good riding, doin some other things accept foot jams would be good, maybe some flat 180s, fakies, air over copin, jumping over the box, transfers. there all prety easy things when you have done them once lol. very goos riding though for only 2 weeks. Keep on improving. chris
  18. thinking about espraying or powder coating my frame but dont know what the best way to go about it is. sand down my self and spray my self and laquer or get my friend to powder coat it or get my friend to spray it. what would be easyest and best effect ? how much is it to powder coat ? chris
  19. i gaurantee that everyone will say risers lol. alot more options with risers so you can set it up just as you like it good luck with the buy and have fun riding. chris
  20. get a zoot, i got a effect and i have spent staks on it, had to change gearing, front brake because standard one is shit, back brake because i wanted a better brake and bars, the standard ones are realy thin, oh and the rims are the worse rims ever, i have donw no serious drops or anything like that i have only cased som tiny gaps a couple of time and i have already got 3 dents in my rim :/ go for the zoot, much better value or money. chris
