    Hope Iso

    I thought the hope mount things only do ISO to ISO, so you can use a bigger rotor, but dont Try-all use their own mounting system or something? Im probably wrong so wait for someone who knows what theyre talking about to confirm
  3. Hot stuff, PHLUID and PhatMags ordered just now . Shame i had to pay P&P on both as i guess theyl be sent together, but o well. Guessing i wont get them till into the new year?
  4. yeh, i also play hockey 5 times a week, so they would be useful for those. I have like 3 pairs of thigh high compression shorts, but was looking at getting a piar of full length tights too to keep me warmer
  5. Anyone got these? http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/performance_clothing/2xu_compression_tights/c525p10961.html Going to get myself some, and i dont know whether to get the Skins tights or these ones off tarty? Never heard off 2XU before but thought id ask if anyone can recommend them?

    Shoes?

    thats what im finding atm with my "casual" trainers, feet just start dying after like 30 mins lols. what would be more suitable, a pair of mid tops like; http://www.schuh.co.uk/mens-black-and-red-vans-skink-mid/3400447330 or just some traditional skate shoes like; http://www.schuh.co.uk/mens-black-etnies-fader/3416007060 or would both be just as ideal? I would look at actual trials shoes, but theyre like £80 and you cant wear those anywhere else
  7. 1. Be alot less stingey 2. Revise more for exams so i actually get into uni 3. Ride more 4. MAYBE get a girlfriend, although they are often a pain in the ass.
  8. lol nice. I liked the disgusted look you gave your bike on the 2nd to last clip where u missed getting the rear wheel up Decent for your age (13 or so?)
  9. well im from southampton so dont venture into pompey too often, so dont know my way around like, at all . Ill try find it though. Edit: I just looked on google maps, is the canoe lakes the lake that is the shape of the clouds on wheather programmes? Cheers
  10. Very nice bike man. Went onto the tarty website earlier, saw the Sky's proper cheap, made me want to buy one. If the orange sky was £1000 i would have probably bought it lol, even considered buying the white sky mod for a bit of fun its that cheap . However £1000 is still a fair bit for an 18 year old so had to resist
  11. may come, not sure atm as i cba to drive to pompey lol. Anyone got a postcode near there for me so i can use my satnav? Cheers.

    Shoes?

    Basicly, everytime i ride, i get sore feet, even if i only ride for 30 mins. Atm using just a normal set of "stylish" trainers, so not really suitable for the job. Anyone recommend a decent pair of shoes i can buy that wont hurt my feet ?
  13. Power comes from your core on hops, not from your arms, if that helps

    Ahston

    Ahston

    Can anyone tell me what year this frame is please? Pretty sure this is a justice? Just unsure on the year as its not the usual colour-scheme. Cheers.
  16. Bmouth is going to be pretty busy as everyone said, and i dont really wanna go all the way to pompey, especially as traffic might be bad. Anyone wanna head into southampton some place?

    Trials Park Ride

    Nice i wish we had a trials park near us Very nice on the kortz and the green bike (Bjorn?) and loved the old school bike
  18. yeh basicly u gotta confirm its your bank account, by telling them the small amounts they paid you. Then you can be paid
  19. To link your bank to your paypal you must have verified it with those small payment things? So theres no way it could have gone into the wrong bank account? If so id email/ring paypal if its been over a week :\. Pretty sure they cant blame the snow .
  20. Hi, i have a Magura Marta disc brake, but has a 160mm rotor, from my mod. I want to use it on my stock and obviously 160mm rotor is just useless. Was wondering are there any disadvatages of a 200mm rotor over a 180mm rotor? Also is there any way to measure if my disc mount on my forks is already +mm? Can anyone advise me on what rotor to get also? Cheers. Had in mind either the Hope Saw, the Gusset R-Series or the Hope Mono
  21. Holy shit that guys got skills Must have some absolute tank shoes to footjam straight after a backflip lol. Really enjoyed it to be honest.
  22. erm, not allways had indicators and you dont take your foot off the peg to turn do you?
  23. Cant give any advice on how they ride as ive never ridden one, but one major disadvantage is you cant ride comps on 24's yet (i dont think?). I think because of the low BB on smaller wheels (than a 26) its easier to do manuals and things like that, which are decent for combining street lines and allways looks good
