    amazing video makes me want to go ride and never stop absolutley loved it all the riders and the lines were perfect brilliant skills i love them backwards manuals i look forawrd to the next video
  2. really enjoyed that gutted he didnt make that gap to the second rail was hoping you'd save that till last good height on the sidehops as well man
  3. ive only just learnt them myself what i found helped for me was first getting on the back wheel letting the front drop slighty and then just rolling along on the back wheel helps you get used to just releasing the brake and balance points then once you done that a few times just kick instead of rolling.
  4. i also have it and love it its so addictive once you start hours fly by
  5. really good man, liked the riding alot
  6. the only trials game i know of is on the xbox trials hd its called on xbox arcade but its mototrials but it is good fun cost about 1000 points,
  7. ouch man, well if your going to hurt yourself might as well do it properly, hope you back riding soon,
  8. personally i think your best bet is to get hold of some proper spring forks in my experience (which is quite alot) spring on the front is always smoother than air unless your going to go the latest fox lineup but at nearly 900 for a set id stick with spring try looking for 06 onwards marzocchi forks cant recommend a model as i dont know what travel your after e bay is a good starting point. or try your local bike shop and see if they have some second hand forks lying around they nearly always do at mine worth a try
  9. what make are they dude if you aint sure post a pic up here and i might be able to help or if not on top of each leg should be a cap undo 1 or both and you should see a air valve similar to a car. If you want to make them a little softer just release a small amount of air out of them but not to much unless you have a shock pump to put it back in pictures would be easier though or make and model.
  10. they can be expensive at time but they do have the deals on at the moment so they might be that bit cheaper, cheers its a phase 1.2 im really happy with it
  11. cheers brad thats the one i was looking at. id love to go for the trialtech but i just cant afford it
  12. speaking as a beginner myself get hold of ryan leech's "the art of trials" and follow it through it starts off at the very basic bike setup and foward foot all the way to the most advanced moves and everything in between. most of it is on you tube i belive or vimeo have a search around its 50 mins long but brilliant for beginners.
  13. Hi guys quick question ive been looking into brake boosters as ive noticed my frame flexes alot when i squeeze, i have a MAD Phase 1.2 ive measured the centre to centre hole and its 90mm on upper and lower, all the 2 bolt boosters are 95mm upwards so these wont fit however i clicked on the 4 bolt and some of them are 90mm to 110mm i take it these would fit is there a big difference other than the extra bit of metal between 2 and 4 bolt, anyone recommend a good 4 bolt or someone know a 2 bolt that will fit 90mm spacing thanks guys
  14. i can personally recommend shimano deore disc brakes ignore the fact they are the cheapest in the line up of shimano but they are brilliant i ran one for years on my downhill bike just changed the pads and bled them every 6months to a year they never put a foot wrong. ive just had a look on CRC all shimano brakes are very well priced at the moment SLX are on for between 60 and 80 quid. Cant comment on them but its a good price none the less and SLX are higher up in the shimano foodchain so should be even better. hope that helped
  15. cheers guys ill use a combination of hairspray deodrant and spit cant go far wrong then i reckon
  16. i sent a bike yesterday using www.senditnow.com which operates under the royal mail group so should be reliable i found them on here. cost me 11 quid for a 48 hour service bike was boxed up and there was no problems when the bloke came and picked it up. have a look in the for sale section under postage prices page 8 a few people have reccommend them
  17. hey guys ive ordered some lovely trialtech foams thanks to tarty bikes, just a quick question whats the best way to get them to stay put on the bars i used to use hairspray years ago but ive been a lock on fan since then, is hairspray still the norm? cheers
  18. they are not wrong he is crazy some of them crashes made me feel a little sick inside mad skills though for the stuff he did land them gaps were huge as well
