  1. Really odd! What frame were you running it on?

    And in what way were they bad? No sound, no bite, no hold, inconsistent etc?

    Yeah, erm it was on my Trialtech Sport forks. Even with the pads sanded (which makes all TNNs worse imo) I wasn't getting much of a sound, not to mention a severe lack of bite and poor hold :S

  2. I struggled greatly with getting a good brake setup on my 20" Trialtech SL rim, Heatsink Cousts are what I am using now and they are the only pads I have used on it which have been acceptable (Not only are they acceptable, but very, very good). What pads are you using at the minute Dave? The Trialtech rims also seem to require a sharper/deeper/whatever grind than normal, but I might be wrong.

  3. Just well timed, Wrexham in North Wales for those interested.

    Quality edit that dude! When I saw the first clip of you in Wrexham I thought 'Oh wow thats Eagles Meadow!!' Where abouts do you live? I am from Connah's Quay so seeing somebody ride a relatively local spot is awesome, I have wanted to ride Eagles Meadow many times but never had the chance :)

  4. Definitely worth checking out these web sessions if you have the time, I reckon theres knowledge everyone can take from them :)

    A highly controversial chap who makes some very bold comments regarding some interesting topics.

  5. Saddle on the black one is awful but yes they look sooooo much better like that!

    Agreed and agreed ;)

    Its interesting to see a modern 20" seated bike, its a concept I have wondered about for a while now, and it doesn't look like it rides very well now I look at it. Could be wrong though.

  6. I think it was user error in the sense of not making sure the pedals were tight throughout the duration of the ride. Im almost certain that Tartybikes' website gives warning that pedals should be checked for tightness every 30 mins or something like that, but I could be wrong.

    It does however, say this in the 'Additional Information' section of every full bike's page:

    "Please ensure all the details on the warranty sheet supplied with the bike are adhered to. Certain circumstances (such as stripped threads or rounded crank arm tapers) only occur due to a lack of correct maintenance and all manufacturers are aware of these situations, so any claims due to incorrect maintenance procedures are much less likely to be successful."
