OK that's a fair call, those all ti ones with more air than pedal are f*king ace though aren't they? If only I was a crack 'ed id have those
-
Hehe, come on there must be a good set amongst that lot!? It took me hours to compile!
-
sorry about the gratuitous use of pictures the link thingy on photo bucket isn't working

Knuckle duster cheese greater match sticks Gucci?

Erm, nothing. But why climb mountains? That and I'm a rite w*nker I just love weird sh!t, novelty value I guess. Also let's face it I'm most likely not going to be as good as most of you so i wont need the same level of equiptment, at least not while I'm a learner. I came to trials as a 35year old ex bmx'er who's looking to re-live his youth. I think its more important to have fun than take myself too seriously, so why not?? *photo bucket won't let me in!! I will post pics asap

Sorry my phone is having a tantrum! Bare with me.

So, as sad as I am, I've been looking for pedals all day and I've narrowed it down to ten sets that i think kick ass! I cant decide which to get, i could buy any!? (Well its actually eleven but one set is the elephant in the room see if you can guess which.) *** after posting I realized some of them I can't get, oh and I'm a twat :/

http://evobike.hu/sajatfiok/kepek/tnmxidbfqwtgobhpflzteyqrvwghtcdiunkfaibt.jpeg Super cool looking, heavy though! Maybe if I get ti axles they'd be better than the chinky ebay ones?
-
It wouldn't be a gamble with money, it'd be with safety! I thought it could be too good to be true, and it probably is!! That why I ran them by y'all But im such a perv I still like them though. However I won't buy 'em. Thanx for the input Ten ft chop stick. hehe
-
I like the ones you got the best, but there a bit of a beef cake! The magnesium ones are nice too. Ooo decisions, decisions. you think definatly not ebay pedals?
-
I'm only playing with you bud, most of us are... Your probably a nice guy and decent rider... when your not being a complete c*ck
-
I'm glad of the advice, is it just the looks though? I'm a bit eccentric so they kinda suit * Do you think they'd be man enough, I mean can you get ti axle pedals for that money or are they fake? In the early to mid nineties well go were absolute pants, I'm assuming by the recommendation that they stepped up their game since then, but ive still got a negative on them.. I could wallop my crupi pedals on from my bmx for a while and increase my budget. ...Still I do like those pedals, and their sooo cheap... *If I had say a budget of 50ish what else could I get that are light ,obscure and interesting? (As that's kinda my bag)
-
F'me! Quick response.. what's wrong with em?? I thought they looked pretty cool. :)I don't know about budget I suppose 30 ish
-
I don't know how to do a link but if you could be arsed, please look at item no 400542932632 and tell me if they are worth buying. My pedals are driving me mad, sooo painful!! Must upgrade them asap. Thanx

I got the same frame with lesser parts from eBay a few weeks back for 210. Gotta be worth more than that
-
You dunno what your missing bud! (Lots of black and white footage of non descript origin) I thought it was really innovative and legendary Plus you'll never have seen someone so far up them selves they're practically inside out! Go on, have a peek, you know you wana
-
Quick update, pre loading the pedal while hopping is the tits!! It worked so well its untrue. It makes you more upright too. Its so obvious now I can't see why I wasn't doing it before. Cheers bud!
-
How far are the pads from the rim in the brake off position? I had that problem with mine. I moved the slaves in a bit and if was much better, though a bleed is always good
-
Hmmm, will we live long enough? Pure b*ll*cks
-
Aarr harr! Brake on then press on the pedal then let the brake off so I'm already cranking.. that's something I haven't tried or seen on a how to. It makes perfect sence. That's gotta be what I'm missing!! Thanx
-
Ha ha, An hour! I'm f*cut after 10 mins... if only I did trust the brake ..I'm out later on my bike so I'll try all the suggestions. Thanx
-
I can maybe do 4-5 without moving round too much, its the initial getting on to the back wheel that determines how long I can hop for. One of the how to vids shows a few ways of getting on the back wheel.. I either come off an endo or just give it a good old yank! I really want to do the push the pedal way because it looks a controlled method and pretty cool. (But f*kin hard) So when I'm closer to doing a pedal kick how far do I push the pedal? I've noticed so far that I'm having to move my body weight to the pedal side to give it any kind of meaningful push, which puts me off balance.
-
Yeah I saw a video of some dude on a 20" doing that in the how to section, I also watched a few of the radfest vidios (which looked f*kin awesome btw) to see if I could glee some technique from them, from the vids I've taken of myself I look to be leaning too far back, but that's the only place I can balance!? Also you know when you ride off a curb and land on both wheels , just sort of plop off smoothly, i always land front first like I have no clue of the center of gravity!? I kinda feel at odds with the bike if that makes sense. Is that just lack of practice? I can balance pretty well, put the back wheel on things and hop off, do an endo,180 ect and that's comfortable, its just lifting the front wheel it all goes to sh1t.
