  17. What's going on with all the strong parts?

    I think it's already been mentioned but I reckon it's a case of older riders viewing things with rose tinted glasses. If people think parts are weaker maybe it's because they've got bigger and started riding bigger. If the scene doesn't seem as good maybe it's because your older and the realities of the world have started to dawn on you and your no longer as care free as you once were. And to Ben, I get the impression your more disillusioned with trials as a sport beause it didn't bring you everything you hoped it would. There's no point moaning about parts or the scene or whatever else, just focus on the positives you've had out of the sport and if it no longer makes you happy then find something that does. Not having a go mate I just got that impression that's all.

    Seems like you kinda are man, I love the sport just think stuff should be available to withstand bigger moves, like i was riding pretty big just before i had 2 years out and my bike would last with simple punnys or a flat spot, reckon there would be more street bashers again if this was the case ASWELL as older lads returning to the scene, just think its kind of limiting in pushing boundaries in that aspect, end of the day just mine and a few others opinion and what does that matter,New skoools here like it and adapt or quit basically I just don't think most have executed the moves or destroyed the parts to understand my point of view, don't want to get into a keyboard fight just unloading a bit that's all.

    So like what double wall rims are available then, like I've got one of the last echo 07s ATM but that wouldn't last forever what's my alternative? As I've had 3 rides out of trial tech single walled and its demolished pretty much oh be smoother you all cry, yeah fair enough but I'm getting used to the bike again, technique etc and I do drop gaps I know that's a foreign term these days, but its the buzz of landing one after shitting yourself just before it. The satisfactions unreal I don't really get that from much else and I want to be able to execute them and only have to worry about making the gap not the fact I could be a broken heap when I land from parts unable to sustain the impacts.

    Trial tech forks everyone says get a pair of them ..... I run a vee may be frowned upon for doing so but I haven't snapped a pair of forks since I made the transaction from a maggie so maybe a vee option? Just a suggestion as a vee on backwards mount with adapters is nowhere near as good, like a jaguar on a front mount isn't as good.

    Yeah lighter all this fair enough but jeez there's no need for the amount of holes there is in echo cranks for example at least give people the option of cranks without the ridiculous holes in them. Like I don't understand how you pay more for less metal that's weaker the logic just doesn't make sense really except for the lining in adam's pocket.

    Like I remember when I first started I used to go through so many parts and they were actually strong I feel so sorry for today's younger riders who don't have mummy and daddy to hand to replace everything after a few rides.

    So yeah to evaluate lets make lighter stuff and become more extortionate and basically pummel the already small sport into the ground, unless you have an unlimited source of cash (Y)
