You weiner.

I think I'm going to have to replace the rim. If you send tarty a hub will they build it onto a rim for you?

Tightening the spokes to get the egg out creates movement sideways and then correcting this moves it somewhere else. It's at the point now where it's rebuild from scratch or get a new rim and a tarty wheelbuild.

No flat spots but there's probably a quarter of an inch of up and down movement.

I've got this rim http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/26_inch_rear_rims/tryall_rear_26/c25p116.html on my stock and it's pretty badly buckled, i think it was ridden with a couple of spokes missing for a while. I took it to a decent LBS and they managed to get it reasonably straight but there was still a lot of movement up and down. is re-building the wheel likely to help or will I have to buy a new rim? And if I do need a new rim what should i go for? Advice from anyone other than Kieran morrison appreciated.

Minty fresh!

These are quite useful and they answer a few questions that people seem to ask a lot on nmc so I thought i'd post a link: http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/media.html?group=guides

In Mountsorrel but it's an easy train into the city centre. I know james and tom who ride Leicester pretty regularly. i'll have to look into the tarty price match and what the 'terms' of it are, I would rather order it from them though.

I rode trials lightly about 2 years ago and and after a couple of friends started riding again I'm looking into getting a new bike and re-starting. I've been looking at the 2010 onza comp. I've heard good things about the frame but can anyone tell me what the full build is like in terms of overall quality and value for money? I probably won't be ordering anything until after christmas when i'll know how much driving's going to cost but the comp's a lot cheaper here: http://www.winstanleysbikes.co.uk/product/30987/Onza_Comp_Trials_Bike_2010 Than on tarty: http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?product_id=11229&category_id=10 I'd much rather order it from tarty though so does anyone know if they'd match the price?

Some good riding there, enjoyed watching that.

Hey, Im thinking of starting trials again after a year and a half break. I have seen the Zoo lynx on tartybike. I was just wondering.. Is it a good bike? How long is the long version? Is it good on the backwheel? Easy to handle etc. would just like to know some information, any feedback would be a great help thanks. Adam

I'm not sure if yo can do this on new members chat but you should have made this a poll.

I think you need http://www.dentistforum.co.uk/ not http://www.trials-forum.co.uk.

We live in a village called mountsorrel but could easily get into Loughborough or Leicester on the train if you know any good spots there.

Me and a few friends live/ride in leicestershire just wandered if anyone knew any good spots. Thanks.

I've had a couple of trials bikes but don't have one at the moment. I'm looking to get a new bike and get back into it though. i just wanted to know what setup you ride and what it's like.
