  1. thanks for the advice mate , your right about the cromo frame , gonna keep it for now and see how i go . must admit the reason i got into riding was after watching a documentry called concrete circus and seeing danny macaskill doing his thing i was hooked !! , now im out most nights seeing what can be done with some friends from work ! its so addictive !! pleased that it doesnt sound like im the only 30 year old trials enthusiast lol
  2. hi guys ( & girls ) , ive just started getting into street trials and need some advice i currently ride a voodo bakka 26" wheel dirt jump bike , ive removed the front suspension forks and fitted some dmr trailblade rigid ones to save weight , it is a geared bike so ive ordered the dmr single sprocket kit my big concern is the frame , is it to heavy ? and should i change this aswell , if so what should i be looking at ? , im new to riding completly as havent ridden a bike since i was 15 , im now 30 lol ( am i to old for this lol ) the reason for the bakka is im a sales manager at halfords and it was the most suitable looking bike they sell , had to get it from them as its on a bike to work scheme and i pay for it monthly with regards to techniqes , how do you bounce on the back wheel ? , i endo forward , rock back onto the rear wheel but try as i might cant get my bounce on ! , any tips , psi recomendations ? etc finally , im based in lincolnshire are there any regular riders who meet up that i could perhaps tag along with ? thanks - Matt
