I think maybe you getting them the wrong way round, because i have heard the opposite, and after hearing about Gilles' performance at Koxx days, it enforces the opinion. Vid was AMAZING. That hook that he then goes on to nearly tap is crazy! Good find Ads

Hey there fellow mac user Here is a plug in that, once installed, will allow you to play almost any vid type in quicktime (which is standard on mac) including .avi. Also install this to be able to play .wmv files in quicktime. As others have said, downloading VLC will be a back up plan - never harms to have a second media player installed. Edit: Also, download and install this, which is the divX codec, meaning you can play vids encoded with that. There you go, those are all the things you will need. Don't forget in future if you are searching for plug-ins like these, to put "mac" in your search so you get the right softwear.

2:50 - style 2:54 - guts Beast vid, cheers for sharing.

Loved the bullet time! I remember when you did it last time and thought it was such a cool idea, but it must take ages to film and edit just one move like that? Anyway, good skills, nice editing

This one? Do you mean seen it in the flesh, or as in you wanted to what site it was on?

Link does't work for me

So why did he take them? What was he trying to increase his performance for? Beasty vid, he is amazing, so are the rest of them, but hermance inparticular. He seems to not make an appearence for a while then suddenly he has got even better, which at that level is quite amazing.

Ah nice pics joe Some cool stuff going down, that hook that iolo was doing from static (1st pic) was mad! Beasty day, see you sunday maybe?

Really nice pic, looks really cool. As for the comment, i reckon its because one shop was and still is a great success, whereas the other is a bit of a failure - jelousy Craig had the choice of being sponsored by either shop and picked select.... OOOOPS!

Same here, seems to be tv.isg.si's fault though... weird. Would like to see it though Anyone want to upload it somewhere else though?

Really hope i'll be there. Is anyone from down the london way going? if so i might have to join you - share the journey? i'll drive, you just pay half the petrol. Let me know.

No it doesn't, he has clearly come from the far side of the rock. Nice pics

Sorry to bump this up, just wanted to say cheers for the replies and glad you guys liked it Next vid should hopefully be out around easter time - might be a natural vid. I will probably see some of you guys on rides and get u to film any decent lines

Cheers marky boy i do enjoy it! The codec you need is this, its the divX one that its encoded with. Alrernatively it will probably work on VLC player found here.

Ha ha yeah i know it is, just he was being annoying filming EVERYTHING... not even in an artistic way just like random chavs walking by, but yeah i get your point. Thanks for the comments so far

Thanks for that - made my day! Cuffed with that comment Thanks for that, i deliberately tried to make the lines be more than just a single move, ie, not just a tap, or hook, but then leading onto another move. Thats why it has taken so long to get finished but i am glad u like it

Well here it is guys, sorry it has taken so long in the making! It is encoded with divX so most of you should be able to watch it. I welcome constructive critasism about both the riding and the editing. Sorry it isn't the bst quality ever, but i had to get it under 50mgb so i could upload it on eengoegidee.... If anyone could upload it on tv.isg.si or whatever it's called then that would be great Fire away! Video 1 Faster link - Thanks to Sopde/Thinkbikes for hosting. and now a I would like to thank Matt Staples very much for his part of the filming. His amazing angles and original ideas helped make me look better - Don't watch the vid for the riding, watch it for the filming by Matt

Like the music, and pretty decent riding. If i were you i would change the writing, it looks quite tacky in my opinion. i always think that plain writing is best, rather than fancy colourful stuff

I am using a 127.5mm bb with 'burns and it is VERY VERY close to my break cylinders, i even had to gring off part of my break pad so i could set the break up. Probably because they are really old square taper cranks, and go onto the bb further that newer ones. But be safe and get a wide one.

Haven't read all the posts because i can't be arsed. Having had a Zero, a levelboss 1065, a Czar Ivan and now a Gu Typhoon, i can honestly say that all have advantages and disadvantages. Both the Gu and the Adamant are pretty similar, neither will break on you (unless you are pretty dam fat), both are very similar geo... However they have changed the Adamant for '07 so that it has less bb rise (15mm or 25mm dependent on the length) so if bb rise is what your after don't go for the 07 Adamant. The other thing is that high BB frames feel shorter because there is a smaller distance between the BB and the top of the head tube, so if you are (say) 5'8" or over then you might be suited to the long version of the frame. I am 5'8" and i ride the long Gu and its just about right for me. And lastly, i wouldnt order of Select Bikes if i were you Tarty Bikes is where it's at

This ride still happening? if so where are we meeting what time etc? I'll see if i can make it

Sounds good, just posted in the other topic but i shud be there
