    Snail Cams

    think im gonna get the Because simple street 24", what snail cams would fit this? as they all say 'fit most mods', ive never rode snail cams before cheers for any help
  2. this seems like a typical trials shirt, they always seem to be nothing but writing, i reckon if you want to be designing a new style shirt to attract attention. it should have an image of a rider on the front with some kind of amazing backshot of a town in black and white in the background, with solely the rider in colour. image should also fade out towards the edges into the material. with the front half of the shirt on white material and the back half black with the brand as tartbikes or whatever it need be. i know this is not really advise and do not mean to criticise your design but if i was in your position i would want to change the way trials are even seen in possible fashion hope im helpful and not just rude
  3. is there anyway i can purchase a new 24uk frame? as this part of the site is old

  4. I know that other people must have this problem, ive got a pretty important rugby tour coming up soon and my shins are kinda paying the price at the moment. firtly, is there a way to speed up the healing of like the cuts and bruises on your legs,(as the cuts are deep, and my tour is soon) know bit of an odd thing. and i know some people wear shin pads, but is there some kind of lightweight sock kinda shin pads, you can get. as i dont want bulky pads. just to be slyly protected, if you know what i mean cheers

    Snail Cams

    would it be possible to put a set of snail cams onto my heatsink 24uk? (if so any recomendations) reckon it'd make a nicer looking set up. at the moment im set up with a spring tensioner. but i dont really like the bulk of it (keep hitting it on things, as im trying new things), and it doesnt really do a good job of protecting my chainstay, recently ive been going through chainstay protectors monthlyish (burning a whole in my pocket). but aswell if i tighten or loosen my chain it just dis-alligns my chain? is this me being a bit of a noob?
  6. i ride a 22:16 gearing, but i've never really ridden any other gearing. thought it was the standard gearing for a 24" it is pretty perfect for street riding
  7. as already said you are on it, possibly the best place to get a second hand bike is this forum, either keep your eyes on the "for sale" topics. or make a topic in "wanted" and let people come to you.
  8. im 6 foot 3 and i love riding my 24". try it mate its brilliant
  9. i think danny mac should give this bike ago, it'd just be funny. See if it lives upto its name.
  10. mate ive had the same problem if its been fine before just oil up the chain, some WD40 could do the trick. if it keeps happening just try tightening up your chain abit hope that helps

    Sprockets

    im changing my sprocket to a screw on one. and doing so changing cranks, bottom bracket etc.. but im worried whether i'll make the ratio between my sprocket and free wheel to low, as im used to riding what i think is 22 T(sprocket) to 16 T(free wheel). would it be to low a gearing to make the sprocket 18 T?? cheers moff *and sorry i think ive seen this same sort of thing posted before, but i couldnt find anything in the search
  13. just dont like the way the chain 'jiggles' about, struggle to keep the chain tight enough and kind of feel that the tugs make it look nicer as a single speed
  14. basically dont really like the way the spring tensioner feels on the bike, are tugs any better or do you have to keep resetting them? cheers geez,
  15. 8/10 life's life you gotta love it!
  16. if you want like a pure addictive game to download on your computer, i'd go for peggle nights, its sick. much better than minecraft! otherwise the TRON game is sick on the ps3-ting bless
  17. it better be fine man, im watching it a 2 in the morning was at work earlier
  18. watch an hour of danny mac tonight on red bull tv, 7pm tonight on http://www.redbull.com/cs/Satellite/en_INT/001242832270051 and watch the preview on http://www.pinkbike.com/news/macaskill-conquers.html looks sick
  19. really don't like the ashton diamondback, go for the onza zoot, if your after a decent complete 24"
  20. mate, i would just go for whatevers more comfortable. i mean if you currently ride a bmx then a mod would probably be best for you. but if you can have a go on your mates bikes and compare. sounds like a stock would just be too big, compared to what you've been riding. and if your starting then i'd have a look on the for sale forum here, for sick relatively cheap bikes. thats what i did. but theres always tartybikes.co.uk, if moneys not as much of an issue. hope that helps, still only a newbie.
  21. Alright mate. Sounds good, if there's any other things you can tell me to help me, like is there anything else which would be good for me like Ryan leach's "mastering the art of trials" which im gonna get. and i wont be able to comment because im not a full member but im sure i'll find a way cheers moff
  22. hey, im rob moff. im 16, live in cov. i ride a heatsink 24UK, just started trials riding havent really got anywhere yet but im learning and loving it. been on this forum a while, just thought this thingy would be a good place to meet more riders. moff
  23. any trials riders in cov willing to give a newbie some pointers? got used to my new bike, just need some pointers really on the technique, to get some tricks on the go cheers moff
  24. that is a brilliant video mate, perfect. it's not what you expect, out of the box thinking how'd you think of that? nice tricks aswell mate, thats a proper skate park. they're rare where i live, like big parks thanks mate, properly enjoyed that
  25. i'm doing d of e aswell mate, never tried to do trials for it though. if you manage that'd be too sick. most d of e stuff, they dont really check on. if you get like a video before and after the time, like showing your improvement. i reckon that'd be enough. but i would still check with your rep
