  1. It's stronger, lighter, and looks a lot better, else we'd all be heating drainpipes to stick to the bottom of our frames. Also it's not gonna be stuck to your frame forever, and you can use it again. And it's barely expensive at £25.
  2. Wander the streets and tell strangers the story of how you got your name. Read, get a pet turtle, learning how to use Adobe Flash captivated my interest for a while, get an epic garage and make custom trials parts, my mate does those online IT courses, be a dick on fb and give everyone shit, design t-shirts, learn how to use after effects/sony vegas for trials video editing, do that thing where you go into your mind and practice something so you can get better at riding and not have to go outside, make a fort out of your bed, a load of pillows and various things from around your house, knit, table tennis, indoor extreme sports, make an obstacle course from things around your house and complete it as fast as you can, make a Rube Goldberg machine around your house, get a wolf mask and wait patiently in cupboards until your mum/dad/flatmate/other half/elderly relative opens said cupboard and jump out at them.

    Films!?

    Watched Scott Pilgrim VS The World tonight, I actually loved it haha, deadpan humour is win. And I can't be the only one who thinks that Ramona girl was fit...
  4. If I was starting out and had a shiny new bike, I'd protect it until I learnt to ride it a bit better, and prevent a shit-ton of scratches, so I could take it off when I was half decent, and be like "Ooooooh yeahhhhhhh.".
  5. Try using the search function as well, there's been a shitload of topics about the M.A.D bikes recently.
  6. As does the Chris King one. EDIT: They all do? I've tried ones for sprockets and snail cams, with the same result.
  7. Double post. You can get it here http://www.allposters.com/-sp/Love-Posters_i3294526_.htm It's called "Love", by Steez.
  8. DJ RANKIN IN DA MIX MUDDAFUGGA. Nice riding though, got me beat
  9. Honestly, if you don't know where to start, and you don't know how to present it to an audience with no grasp of trials, you might be better off doing it on something else. If you're still dead set; Ideas: - Simple definition of trials for an introductory slide, e.g. "Using a bike to get over obstacles", but better than that, just to give the audience something to go on for the time being. - Disciplines of riding; TGS, Natural, Street, etc. clips of each, throw some Danny Mac in for good measure, maybe some Damon W, and I'd have Iolo riding some natty, because his style is awesome. - Some clips of you, maybe a "timeline" of your progression throughout riding.
  10. I'm in Google Chrome, is this "Find stuff on the website" a clever way to get people to search for bugs?
  11. When I convert something, I can't see the result properly: EDIT: However, if I highlight the text and move down, it scrolls down so I can, but there's no scroll bar to show that it's possible to go down without doing this.
  12. Still adore that frame, I couldn't bring myself to ride it, I'd cry if I scratched it up Especially since you've only just started out.
  13. www.tartybikes.com Watch videos, keep trying new stuff, and pushing yourself. The "I WILL DO *insert presently impossible move here* ONE DAY!" factor will probably be enough.
  14. Didn't Ali and co. test it for like a year?
  15. Get saving and get a FANS, I'm straight so I don't ride mod but if I did I'd be all over it
  16. Some mods do have seats - Monty Most 24"s have seats, and some stocks do. It could weaken your frame if you're going to be cutting seat tubes up, but you could get something like this - attachable seat, and I've seen some mods which have a small hole with a cap in them, which you would just need to remove and place a seat post in. If you're still in want of a seat on a stock, it might be worth having a look at something a little more old school. For a 24", the Onza Zoot gets high praise all 'round, it's a bit out of your price range, but it may be available in the FS section in full members a bit nearer your budget.
  17. I haven't noticed anything leak from anywhere, and I checked around my bike before I went for a ride each time to see if I could see if anything had leaked out of it. How would I be able to find out where it's leaking from?
