  1. Trials stems are wierd... I see what you are saying with the HT angle... i think the 20" bikes would suit a taller steerer and a short bmx style bar. Having your steerer(bars) be a 4" radius from stem or so away from the stem does compromise certain moves and more so handling in general. A steeper steerer and shorter stem will defiantly give you what you are looking for. Ive always seen inspired bikes as 24'' bmx bikes with disc brake mounts so maybe try a bmx geo(with slightly higher bb) with postmount tabs from marino and see how it feels. I feel like the stem / bar is really what needs to be figured out.
  2. http://www.tribalzine.com/?Flipp-introducing-the-Alias-20-1 Marino can make them as well. http://marinobike.com/order-form/ however, at only 250$ for a custom frame i doubt the tubes are double butted.
  3. Because trials riders know how to take trials photos. Better than 90% of the stuff on tribalzine.
  4. He is just riding alot more tech stuff now it seems. He still has good style hes just not doing huge drop gaps and pallet gap max training. Seems to be transitioning into a more comp style rider than TGS.
  5. That was a pretty creative bmx video.
  6. amazon.com search schwalbe 24... maybe even "schwalbe big betty".
  7. They are on amazon... expensive though at $85 USD. Its a great tire though, I love mine.
  8. I cant vote on the poll but I love my echo 24" Feels so good... Frame is very strong as well, Im sure youve seen Pavel beat the shit out of his..
  9. My tensioners are all the way out and my new KMC Z610 HX, 3/32" is 3-4 mm to short and if I add two more links its too long... Right now Im using my friends old chain and the only reason I think it fits is because its been stretched already... Will I have to use a half link? or should I try a different chain? 18:14 with 360mm stays
  10. I f**king love mine... Just waiting for 24" trials specific tires to come out.
  11. I rode a similar bike(tank) for a year or so, which I payed 250 USD = 175 euro?? It WILL help you learn the basics of throwing your weight around the bike, its still great fun and gets you past the most difficult part of the learning curve...
  12. Such great style, wow!! Great vids... keep them coming please! Very Inspiring..
  13. Nice!! A trials specific marino frame... geo looks similar to a 2011 echo? What is it and what are you going to with your next frame?
