- Show previous comments 18 more

I'm glad you made youre choice! I was also abit lost at first, the arcade is really a good bike, well I hope.. ;)
-
ah, if Ali c recomended it to me and compared it better than the skye, then thats gonna mean something ;)
-
Yes it does!
-
how often do aluminium bars get snapped? im builing up a skye and i suppose ill get either the arcade high risers or the skye riser bars, but when would i need to change them? i dont wanna smash my teeth out after a drop thats all....

I've not snapped any Inspired bars but I did swap a pair I had after a years abuse just for peace of mind. They had been used in demos with 10ft drops every day over summer though. But in all honesty you will be fine, I have 100% trust in the Arcade bars
-
ahh ok cheers for this, the weight makes me think they'll snap quicker than normal bars, but i guess theyre made well. arcade it is! and yeah ill make a "progress post" soon. cheers guys, means a lot :)
-
alloy for the win - strong and light is always a good combo
-
are trialtech highrisers identical to the inspired skye risers? and is the strength effected in any way or are they just completely identical besides logos?

The tt hight rise are actually about 10mm wider i think...
-
thats good for me then, i love the feel of the tt highrisers so much! :D
-
Good for you :P
-
Ok, it is the arcade for defo, I'm not changing any more, seriously!

-
anybody know where to get some Atomlab pimp green 24" rims?
- Show previous comments 9 more
-
Maybe you should consider the dmr Rims as tarty has them... In green ;)
-
yeah but i want something thats gonna be strong as well, and i dont really like dmr stuff.... not being fussy, i just dont like them much. also there cheaper rims and gonna be cheap for a reason... i can spend as much as i want if its gonna be the best kit. also the green ones on there are discontinued anyway, thanks though :P
-
im gonna have to try find an alternative i guess, i could get some black atomlab pimps because i think my dad knows a place where they can anodise stuff so rims would probably be no problem, who knows..... and im ordering my skye frame kit today so thats something to look forward too! :D
-
best ways to run in a BB beofre trials use and for how long? and no idiots please, truthfully :)

ohh..... thats what it was.... haha, awkward for me! haha, and yeah
-

-

-

When you reply to a post or make a new post, you click on more reply option then chose files and you'll access to your folder on your computer. You go to the folder where there is the photo you want and click attach or something like it(i'm on ipad so its abit different) after that the folder will close and you'll see your photo under the attach button(in the more reply option menu), click it then you'll have your photo uploaded to the furom! :)
-
ahhh cheers buddy :)
-

I envy you but i should not with my omen frame on its way
I should check them as well, so far i have only one
Check the video called nogames on eightypsi.com, the guy on the blue inspired has them
They are dark green but if its sunny bright metallic green, beauties
-
yeah Ian Johnstone i think is his name, and thats the shade and shine im after anyway so i think i might go for them. price is cheap too which is a bonus, thanks for the help bro :)
-
and i like the look of omen's, bit of a mix between the skye and element i'd say, hope your "omen project" goes well ;)
-

how do you use trials forum properly!? (help me! please)
- Show previous comments 5 more
-
Start off by asking everyone why inspired aren't as good as omen
-
Don't forget to get a TF tape measure, absolute must
-
ask how much they want and call dibs then never reply when they reply back on items for sale.
-
wow, the Skye is a lot lighter, its as if inspired are listening to me haha. I reckon people are gonna be more interested in it now, am I!

Danny's bike is heavier than standard, plus it doesn't matter if it rides well ;)
-
ahhh ok, thanks, also when me and dad get some money together, were probably gonna get a Skye from you guys so its only a matter of time, keep one in stock especially for meee;) haha:)
-
not literally, i have no idea how long its gonna be before i get one! but i will do eventually ;)

no worries mate :)
-
Very nice Jordan
-
why thankyou my friend
-
why does having a rotor bigger than 185mm on an inspired void the warranty?
- Show previous comments 3 more
-
Yep, it will cope with it, but it's to stop stupid people using massive rotors with no mechanical sympathy then whinging when the frame breaks...
-
By no mechanical sympathy, I mean landing backwards off stuff with the brake locked on fully.
-
ahh ok thanks :)
-
my Skye will be finished soon! :D

What else do you need for it?
-
not a great deal. cranks, bb, bashring chain tensioner and thats it me thinks :)
-
MONEY WAITING - Anyone got a pair of Atomlab 24" Pimp or Pimplite anodised green rims? Or know anywhere or one to get a pair from? Even if they're a bit scratched up, pm me or let me know somehow :) cheers
- Show previous comments 3 more

do you know what are the differences between them?
the DMR still exist on store shelves
-
true, but if i wanted them i would buy them.
-
that was like the reason why I mentioned it to you, you can wait for an atomlab to appear for a gooood while, or get some decent green rims now. they are anodised, and no they are not atomlabs, but they are strong
-
where is the best place to get tar? (rim hs33)
