  1. Wait until you've had it for a while, you're bound to encounter at least one fanny! Hahahahaha! It auto-corrected c*n* to 'fanny'! :')
  2. Being a new member is well shit! unlucky to everyone who is in it! Also when you get validated you'll realize the forum is full of c**ts and it is a waste of time having it anyway!
  3. I actually run a Shadow half link chain and have had no problems at all with it ! It is the strongest chain I have ever owned and I have lots of confidence in my chain when I ride ,also they have excellent reviews too ! They are well worth the money man !
  4. I really enjoyed watching that video ! Your riding was great and you have a really nice style ! Also good use of the skatepark objects ! You did some sweet lines on them !
  5. Thank you for the advice ! It is much appreciated .
  6. Hello, I recently threaded my Echo cranks and I will be getting a new pair of cranks soon. I was wondering if anybody can give me some pro's and con's of the Trialtech Sport Forged cranks ( square taper) and was wondering if they are actually worth buying. Any advice about them would be much appreciated , thanks , Ellis.
  7. Your bike actually looks so nice now ! It's a big improvement from the Onza I last saw you with !
  8. I enjoyed the riding, I love this song, also I saw Andrei Burton today at Earl's Court, he rode well in front of a crowd !
  9. I really like it . How are you finding the freewheel and frame ?
  10. Ah I think red should be alright. How are your parts going ? Are you happy with your decision and enjoying riding them ?
  11. I've recently got the Trialtech 108 click and I love it ! It has good engagement , it is a fair price , it is pretty loud too. Also the bearings are pretty smooth, and when I ride it I notice this as my freewheel spins for longer than my old freewheel,which is quite a good advantage for me as I have to ride quite far from my house to get to the good places to ride in my area. Hope this helps, Ellis.
  12. That was a good video ! I enjoyed watching it alot !
  13. Good setup ! I have an ice and a trialtech 108, I love it ! I hope you enjoy riding those parts and are happy about your decision !
  14. I can't tailwhip but alot of my friends who ride bmx can, when I was trying them I was getting almost as close as you were, my friends told me to 'sweep' my bike across my body to get it back under my legs more, then just get my ankles closer together as my feet were coming down to the pedals. You look really close though and just keep practicing, you'll have it soon ! Hope this helps, Ellis .
  15. Looks great considering you've not been riding long. A thing i found quite helpfull when learning was to slow my hops down and take my time with each one abit more, also this will help you to put preloading into practice and your hops will improve alot more !
  16. Yer, I wouldn't get a skull, i've heard about them snapping pretty easily. Get an ice, it is what I have and I actually love it. For the freewheel get a trialtech 108, I have just got one and I love it, it is a great freewheel, has excellent engagement, and makes a nice sound aswell ! :L For the bottom bracket situation I can't really help you as I am quite new to trials and don't know alot about bottom brackets. However alot of my friends have echo square taper ones and they seem pretty good. Hope this helps, Ellis .
  17. That was actually really good ! It was a nice relaxed edit and I really enjoyed watching it !
  18. That is quite an odd video, not in a bad way though, I just personally find the introduction a bit weird . Also on the first bike shown, why does it have a Mirraco sticker ? I thought they only made BMX parts ?
  19. For a first video that was good ! I am hopefully going to be making my first video soon, and riding wise it won't be as good as yours ! The only improvements I can think of are ones that have already been said.
  20. That was really good ! I wasn't to sure on the music, but the riding made up for that ! Also in every video I watch of you, you have always improved loads by the next video ! Keep it up man, I wish I was that good , haha !
  21. Wow ! I liked that alot !
  22. Looked like it was a pretty good ride ! Also obviousley I didn't know Danny but i'd like to say R.I.P anyway xx .
  23. Ah sweet , that's good to know ! It should be here Monday or Tuesday, can't wait to ride again !
  24. That looks nice ! Would look a bit better if you had two matching coloured rims though !
