  1. Do you think riding your inspired has helped you in comps, you look so smooth on the rocks.
  2. It may be overtight, maybe put some PTFE tape on it if that doesn't work, its what plumbers use to seal pipes.
  3. Cool video, gonna have to go on a group ride or any ride thats not on Arran, loads of nice link up manuals noice!
  4. But there are people who are not scared to do most stuff, I have a friend who is just crazy if you tell him to try and backflip off a wall he will proberly try it people like that are the ones who are the first to break the bounderies of any sport. Its alright having the technique to do a drop or gap but you've got to have the balls to do it.
  5. Some people just have a natural talent for it for those don't we just need to keep practicing. It took me about a week to learn back hops on a full suspension xc bike. Then I was just learning to roll obstacles like rocks and small walls, you don't have to hop on everything. Then the more complicated moves come in like pedal ups, pedal kicks, roll ups (zap taps) had them in a few months its all about rythem (what she said). If you just clear your mind of random things that might put you off you will get it I normally tried to ride three times perfectly to get it right.
  6. If your selling on pinkbike or any other site, make sure you give all the details and previous owners also try and not put it as collection only you'll get loads more interest if you post
  7. Planning a 4 day trip down to Lancashire in Feb, just wanting to get an idea of the best places to ride my big bike and trials bike, I've heard Healey Nab is pretty good but there must be a few trail centreish places around there, Lee Quarry is definitely on the list but I heard there is riding in the next quarry over?
  8. God sakes I really regret not going to that, also he is wearing Urge stuff now looks kind of weird that helmet.
  9. So there won't be a Ashton team anymore? where are Blake Samson and Rowan Johns gonna go.
  10. That first one was so cool, is there any riding style Chris isn't amazing, he should try unicycling next.
  11. have you still got the try all tensioner?

    Films!?

    I watched The Objective the other day, its about these soldiers that are guided through Iraq by a C.I.A agent, they all get killed by terrorist aliens it was the most pointless film ever it doesn't even tell you about the aliens it ends as the C.I.A agent on a bed thats it utter bull. It got like 2 out of 5 on the Love Film website.
  13. There are a few ways you can reverse the spring in the tensioner or the proper bodging way which I did today was take the spring out and get a bit of bungie cord and tie it up, the tension you want it at, it wraps the chain round the sprocket so there is better contact.
  14. Avid bb5 is a good choice with a Avid SD7 lever, some nice cables and maybe a bigger rotor, Magura Hs33's come with evo 2 mounts but not on Tarty on ChainReaction they do.
  15. Its says free space 191 GB out of 283 GB
  16. Ok thanks I'll try that disk clean thing, hopefully that will work.
  17. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tTt8b-SohNk A rubbish ride in the rain today, almost lost my SD card aswell because my camera fell over.
  18. It came on my Dell Inspiron 17 from Dell so I'm guessing its thing
  19. When I'am editing videos on Adobe it normally say Not Responding whilst I'am using it for a while then it crashes and brings up a crash report, does anyone know why this happens, is it because I need an external hard drive. Also when I add media it takes ages for it too render the background is this normal or is it again something to do with memory?
  20. Or an old short cage derailleur works well whilst your waiting for your new one, also you can modify so that the tensioner pushes the chain up not pulling it down.
  21. I started riding a proper trials bike about a year and a half ago, I started because I went up to Fort William to watch the 2009 world cup there and I got Danny Mac's autograph and saw loads of riders like Stan Shaw, Kenny Belaey and loads of others just loved it since then also a few guys from the island I live on ride so that got me in to it aswell.
  22. Best mod video I've seen in a while, most of them lines looked effortless and that line at the end was great
