  1. made my 1st official pair of riding shorts... All you need is old cargo pants and a pair of scissors!

    1. Skoze

      Skoze

      I did that, but with a dead man's tweed suit.

  2. Hey guys, Bronz, Dann2707 and myself are taking a trip to Shipley Glen tomorrow. Awesome spot as I am sure many of your already know! If you fancy joining us, then send me a PM on my profile, or contact Dann2707 or Bronz. We can arrange meeting you in Leeds, or at the Glen as we will be taking the train. Directions and a Map From Leeds Centre Hope you can join us
  3. Cannot wait for Dann to get his ass over here so I can fix my bike and ride into the weekend sunset!!! Haha

  4. Next you will be taking the middle from your pedals and people will want to know how much higher you can side hop haha sorry its a joke I had to do
  5. Hey guys, I have been looking for new tyres for my bike, and I was thinking of maybe fitting some white walls, but I have a strong feeling that they are not made for trials bikes... So my question is this... anybody got an idea for making my own?
  6. What does that to refer to? If it's in reference to me, then I was validate after two weeks, not begging for validation, but posting things people liked.
  7. small stabs of the pedals will get u rolling and keep your pace up, don't try to over think it or it will seem a lot harder than it is. If you use the whole video by Ryan Leech - Art of Trials (on vimeo) it has most of your questions answered. Theses little questions etc only hamper your efforts for being validated - just saying.
  8. They have been around for years... and to be honest they ain't that nice to ride with, I used to have some. But that's my thoughts.
  9. Thankyou Matt almost forgot...
  10. I mean is it classed as stock riding, I was wondering what people's general thoughts on it was
  11. What does everybody think of the 24" Trials like the Because Trials? Is it really stock or not?
  12. That looks a lot better!! I really do like your bike mate! Something to think about for sure!
  13. need to ride! anyone wana donate a new BB and Crank set (Y) ahah

  14. Hey Guys, I have always ridden MOD but recently I have been riding my friends stock while out with him, and the general size of the bike feels to fit much better, and I can gap further with the stock... But I only have one issue, the front end feels to short... do any of you run a long stem on a stock? and any suggestions to a stock bike? cheers
  15. Easily the best advice and most descript advice! It's exactly how I learnt to do it, even now I prefer to do 10 smaller precise hops than say 3 bigger less accurate ones.
  16. Just got back from an epic ride... broke my BB though :(

  17. Mine did this, and the problem was that the arm was worn on the inside, and I had hardly rode it which was gutting. So my mate luckily gave me some spare arms and now its solid! Get your arm off and have a look mate
  18. Bash Plate for sure... I do try my best to not use it when getting up things, but if I didn't have it, my frame would look like a pretzel haha! Its more a protection for those extra high walls that your aiming to get up.
  19. awesome riding fella!! random finish with the old dude but the general riding was really good! I have rode 90% of the spots on your video and to be honest, you did the stuff I didn't have the balls to haha
  20. Bunny Hop or Pedal Up For advice go to Art Of Trials - Ryan Leech
  21. kk cheers guys... Hopefully Tarty will have some idea because I really don't want to splash out on a new one haha
  22. Hey guys, yesturday I went for a ride and the right hand side bearings for my BB have bust, It feels like a bent set of cranks but I am 100% certain that its the bearings. Would any of you have a clue as to where I can get replacements as they are sealed... or is it a full new BB situation? cheers
  23. I would say its all about the gearing... Trials would be a 24" with low ratio and more trials specific set-ups, while Street riding would be more BMX based products like profile cranks etc with a higher gearing for speed that's my opinion
  24. Its good to see the younger end riding. But the video was abit bland... and difficult to see what was going on. The Echo was a very nice looking bike though!
  25. Physically sickening to be honest! It didn't look that bad when he did it
