  2. i just get so sick of trying the rear wheel hop and it going no where also do you guys have anypics on how far bars should be rolled forwards to compare to my trials bike? Cheers lads
  3. also could it be that my bars are too far backwards? they are pretty much like a normal set of bars would be with th bars arching back towards me when i ride flat? Cheers guys
  4. i can lean back till i fall off i just cant hop if you get me i feel like i'm gonna dive backwards and kill myself but i do wear a helmet while i'm trying
  5. Thank you sooooooo much you dont know how much this helps me and gives me hope for getting this move down
  6. ive looked at trashzen but i never really got anything to help me from there it had videos but nothing that i could really use when i was on my bike, i just can seem to get any lift like a hop or i freeze
  7. ill count them when i get in the garage in the morning thanks for the help guys
  8. hey isitafox i'm running a stroker hydro disc on the front with magura hs33 on the rear with green froggy pads with a smooth rim and i'm running a zoo pitbull at the moment, and i have not seen that is it a film? Thank you
  9. hi guys. everything else in my learning trials is coming along nice now i'm confident on the front wheel i can get up just about anything with in front wheel height i'm learning my two wheel balance and i'm not jumping of the pedals anymore or slipping off them and i'm even slowly learning g turns. But one of the only things i still cant do is hop on the rear wheel and its a bit annoying and it makes me feel like crap when my mates can jump on my bike and hop on the back wheel or even get one hop when i cant even do one ive tried rocking the bike from the front to the back with the back brake locked on but sometimes the brake slips but sometimes as i pull back the bike gets so far and it wont pull back anymore and i just seem to freeze and i cant hop and when i try to pedal forwards to keep the front end up it just wheelies off really i can get it up so far and it just flips back onto me and i have to hop off the back i just cant hop and i'm thinking is trials really for me or do i just need to try something else a different way of trying. Ive even been stopping videos of danny mac when he used to ride his echo pure and watching how he hops it up but still no joy. Any help what so ever and i mean any help tips tricks or anything else i could try would be much much much appreciated as i can start to link my moves and get down from high objects easier instead of rolling off the edge. Cheers guys
  10. i was told today it could be a bulb by my local bike shop, and i would not have a clue about the enguagments. Cheers guys

  17. sorry about that i was trying to describe where its cracking if you get me, i'm just worried now incase they snap as my state of mind plays a big part in my trials :/
  18. Hey guys. How do you know if your carbon bars are cracking? I've got a set of carbon onza risers and it looks like a crack running underneath the left riser its about half way around and looks like the woven material have gaps in them if you see what i mean it looks like they have lifted up compared to the others. Also its like a thick laquer thats on the bars i think thats where the crack has started from but i dont know how far it goes into the carbon bars. I will post a pic up in a min, any thoughts? Cheers guys
  19. i'm 6'3 and i weight 16stone 8 and i run both a street trials onza zoot 24'' and an echo team 20'' and i prefer my 20'' to balance on to hop off stuff on and just general trials stuff
