To be fair I’ve never been a stock rider so I don’t have much to reference against but it feels good to me! It’s got a fairly long stem too. The echo tr bars I had on it while I built it felt a bit low, felt a bit hunched over when on the back wheel

Shoot me a pm and I’ll keep you posted. I originally got them to put on my mod for that comp reach but they’re really nice on the stock

Yar!

I’ve just put some of the Jitsie super high risers onto the Ashton I’m building, I pretty much have them upright and they feel pretty sweet to me. Might roll them forward a smidge but I don’t think they’ll be comfortable all the way forward

The stem is about right, you’ll get used to it. Nice bike, I always wanted a t-rex

Looks cool! I’m an engineering technician at a big name brewery and kegging is my specialty, if you ever need to talk shop fire me a pm I’m a geek for all this As for my contribution? I’ve spent 4 years renovating my first home good and proper, I’m now a burnt out shell of the spritely young man I once was

Me and my dad went twice last year and we’ve been vowing to buy a Montesa ever since. Cracking day out, looking to go back again soon. Anybody else on here been?

I’ve been following X Trial since the trials bug bit me again last year. It’s ridiculous what Toni Bou can do with a bike!

Rockman blues on cnc backings have always done it for me, just to chuck another name into the mix

Is it still a place to ride? I used to love it there. i saw the topic saying it’s getting flattened to build houses but I also see Adam Morewood instagram posts from Matlock?

I’m glad you mentioned tapping a thread into it because I’d considered it already anyway! I’ll bring my tapping gear home from work tomorrow and go at it its the latter type with the spanner flats for cone adjustment. I had guessed it to be doable since it wouldn’t be hard to get the current axle out. There isn’t much meat poking out either side of the cone adjusters though which worries me slightly; doesn’t look like there will be much in the dropout! ill report back tomorrow if I get a chance at it

First off, hello again! I’m back after nearly a decade off the bike. I’m building up a mk1 Ashton on a budget, finally got round to getting started today and now I have some issues to resolve. First of all, the rear hub is QR only currently, can I convert it to a bolt on type? This is my first stock bike so I don’t know 135mm hubs that well. As much as I would love to upgrade to a proper trials hub I don’t have the dosh to spare right now

I’m trying to get back into it, also after nearly a decade of no riding! Natural or street?

Roses are red Violets are blue I've got ADHD CHEESE ON TOAST!

Them little 1/12 mardaves were awesome. Cheap as hell!

Still got my OOOOOLD school Tamiya TL01 chassis, plus an MO3 (I think?) With a mini cooper shell. That thing is rapid.

I remember that moment at Barrow farm, that was a good couple of days. RIP dude, such a shame.

Both, now you mention it

Good work Mike

Haha, Why post words when a photo of Jay sums it up entirely? Legend.

Errrr, go to a doctor?

I love you.

A lot of people think that by just taking the plugs out their lobes will just go back to how they were it seems, so many people have them stupid looking ears. In reality, gradually shrinking it by working your way back down the sizes would have a better effect I reckon. Don't quote me on that but it seems to be a really logical step that most people overlook

Sweet video dude, very smooth Watched you a bit at tartydays last year, wish the rockman was still going, it matched your beard!
