  1. Thank you Ross!! We need to ride together soon, are you guys coming to Spain this summer?
  2. Hi! This is my new video, which I filmed last Saturday riding in Malaga centre, south of Spain. Hope you like it! Massive thanks to TNN Bikes and TrialBikes for supporting me
  3. It's a 16t bashring. It has 12 holes instead of the 10 holes a 18t usually has. So it has a 16t freewheel too I guess.
  4. Thank you so much!! Didn't even realise there were short/long versions of that model. =)
  5. Hi guys! A friend of mine is selling a 2005 (or 2006-2007, not sure) Koxx Xtp 20" -the one in the picture below-, and I am considering buying it. I'd like to know first what's the geo of the frame (mainly length and BB rise). Thank you!
  6. Hahah I only use them when I ride rocks
  7. Just uploaded my 2nd video on the Ko, just a bunch of clips packed together with Johnny Cash music. Maybe it's the last one I make for a while, Uni is getting too much time from me... Here it is, 1080p
  8. Thank you all! Yes it was the first time I got it on cam!

    Csc Rim Brakes

    Well, the function of the springs is mainly what Mark said: to help pad return. For bleeding, zip-ties/old pads avoid the piston from pulling out (pretty much like a disc brake). They are some pretty big holes indeed (thought it was a bit of a failure when first got the brakes); but on the other hand you get 2/3mm to play with. By the way, this never caused the slave/clamp unit to move, and I noticed the bolts needed to be tightened much less than on Magura mounts (any HS33 mounts I mean, tried ZHI's, Maguras, Try All's). Also, I ve been using the brake for 2 and a half months now, no leaking, everything in place. It's just another option: the brake works as good as a well-setup Hs33 could; I say if you want a much easier setup, try this.
  10. So today I took the camera with me and filmed a few clips, mainly sidehops. Don't forget to watch in 1080p!

    Csc Rim Brakes

    The only difference between CSC pads and any other pad is CSC come with a little hole so that the spring can go through. I tested the brake for a month (on the rear), and did the same to my Cousts and Tnn Belaeys in 5 minutes. Without the spring the brake still works practically the same, but as soon as you take the wheel off they will fall off. Yes, washerless clamps did ease the set up, but trust me when I say this is waaay easier and faster, since the only thing you have to do is the same as with a disc brake: screw, end. Edit: here you can see a video testing the brake (rear wheel)

    Csc Rim Brakes

    These brakes are now available on Trial-Bikes.com, here is the link
  13. Apart from the thing that you cannot bleed it with water or
  14. Long, measured at 1047mm Thanks, hopefully making a video on it soon
  15. Yes the frame alone is 2kg i believe, didn't weigh the bike but i guess it will be around 9.5kg? Thank you! Yes I got it from Trial-Bikes.com, and I believe they have some more left (the frame is not on the website, although if you send an email to info@trial-bikes.com they will tell you how many they still have). Yes, I thought when the freewheel tightened, the bashring would get into its position. Obviously that didn't happen and after riding I had to set it again.
  16. So, after a year and a half riding a 26" Ozonys Cannibal, got the opportunity to get a bike like I wanted to. Strong frame, colourful parts. Here it is. And rides awesome!
  17. Thank you very very much! Really annoying and had the exact same problem with an older lever too. *Edit: Just did what you said, works amazing, like the first day! Thanks again.
  18. Hi, I've been running front and rear water-bled '05 Hs33s quite a long time now, but two weeks ago the front lever started giving me problems. The thing is that it feels really sticky, the lever returns very very slowly and feels weird. I've bled the brake twice but again, and even though it brakes very well, the same problem remains. I believe the whole thing comes from the lever piston, which is indeed the part that returns really slowly. Also, I don't think it's because of the water, since the rear lever has been water-bled for two years with no problems at all. Could it be the spring? Or any over-sized seal? Pissing me off and don't know what to do.
