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."

This give you an idea?

Cheers for the advice Dave, think I am going for Neons front and rear

Really wish I had someone to film me when I'm out riding street

Looks like its either the TR or another Neon then

Hmm, well I use Cousts, but Im not really risking it Yeah everyone says TR's are great, I just don't particularly like the look of them or the little bit extra weight, but will definitely be considering them.

Thanks for all the replies guys, your help is much appreciated I am going to be getting a neon on the front with a disc setup, but my rear brake will be a maggie. How do you reckon those rear Neon rims take a grind? May think about getting 2 Neon rims as they are light, cheap and look great. If these Bionic rims are the same as the old Viz rims then I will steer clear as like Sam said they are reportedly very weak and the metal used doesn't like rim brakes

Been weighing up my options as far as building a 24" wheelset for a trialsy Echo build, and have been contemplating which rear rim I should get. I am curious as to how this Bionic rim performs, in terms of its weight, strength and ability to hold a grind. Has anyone had any experience with these rims or does anyone have any knowledge of them? The design seems to be based off the Try-All No-War rim that I am using on my mod now, which I rate very highly. This site suggests the weight is 628g, which I think is suprisingly heavy looking at the size of the cut outs in relation to other rims. If anyone could help me out that would be cool. http://www.trial-bikes.com/bionic-rear-46mm-p-536389.html

Ah good, you'll be pleased to know I have moved them back a notch since then

Yeah cheers Dan. That was on the first day I had learned them, and since then I have learned to do them more controlled, just on the spot with out going backwards like in vid. But you're definitely right about the balance point, once you have it its simple. Like pretty much all trials moves really

that bar angle too much for you Ali?

Ah right thats a pretty decent sized gap when going flat to flat, nice one!

Did you do that static or rolling??

Cheers for that, yeah I'm going to be running an M810 on the front of a trialsy 24 build, so might think about those. Got Nukeproof Sintereds on my mtb's Saints and they are pretty damn good, so I wonder how those would compare...

Linkkkk please Mark

Looks great Callum! To improve it I think you should buy my Trialtech Forks, Monty Tyres and Try-All backwheel when I split my Bionic

Awesome!! Would have loved to have seen a slightly warmer tone to the flash, perhaps you could go in and warm the foreground up a tad with an adjustment brush? Cracking photo nevertheless

Nice shots! Was the dutch angle a creative choice?

Ah cool, thanks for letting me know

Cool photos! I am curious as to how this one was lit, is it bounce flash or did you use some kind of diffusion? See this sort of soft light look all the time in night club photos but cant figure out how its achieved since on camera flash is generally hard and unflattering. Cheers

I wonder how badly Jack would get bullied for wearing those to college Dez haha

I've just bought a pair of these, seems to be what almost everyone wears now http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ADIDAS-TERREX-SWIFT-SOLO-MENS-TRAINERS-G46594-OUTDOOR-HIKING-CLIMBING-F2-/140904512946 Seem to fit the bill of a sneaker style trainer that you're after too.

Kind of crap, but managing to get the hang of front hops more now http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XiZ-9gEyM54

Sickkk, how high is that man?
