  5. Internet Problems

    in Chit Chat

    Posted · Edited by manguin2001

    I have a similar problem expect not for the last few days for the last few FREAKIN YEARS. I have BT(with a BT router). I have tried different routers (makes no difference) tried different ISP (made no difference) and tried other things (testing lines, distance from the exchange). My latest theory is the wiring in my house is old which is affecting the signal ratio strength. A BT engineer came out once (after about 100hours on the phone (im not joking about the 100 hours bit)) and did nothing and walked off. If its just started happening I wouldnt worry about it but if it continues don’t even BOTHER getting any customer service of BT they are thoroughly useless. I highly doubt your settings are wrong if it worked ok in the past. I wouldn’t try mucking about with them unless you no what you are doing. Also your gay.

    EDIT: it took my three times to post this successfully due to my internet. So count yourself lucky

  9. Hoooooka Help Needed With Pedals

    in Trials Chat

    Posted

    Afternoon all,

    I have I guess you can say a weird problem (although I’m not sure if it’s weird) when doing some hooks. I am trying to hook (to two wheels) 8 pallets (7 normal crates and 1 blue crate). I hit it over ok but as I lift up my foot forward (my left) seems to wedge itself in the top pallet (in between the gap of the pallets top and bottom bits) as I go over and my pedal and foot seem to get stuck there and I fall off backwards just being able to take my foot out in time before I have a nasty accident. I have tried everything but it still seems to happen. When I try and hook on 8 pallets with a slightly leant up one I get over fine. So I was just wondering if anyone else had any experience or problems or advise for this kind of thing I’ve never really heard of anyone having that problem before. It’s a shame as because other than that I think I can hook it as I seem to have the upwards momentum to get upwards and over it.

    Oh and before you ask, I hit the crates at a fair speed and use the pedal up method.

    Thanks for any help, Adam. (Y)

    excellent vid there as always (lol at the first bit giacomo trying to get up the MAHOSIVE rock). Good editing didn't much fancy the music (one piont it randomly cut off). Not sure about the linkin park music (although i like linkin park im not sure it went to well with it). But amazing stuff. (Y)

  17. Backwheel Balance

    in Trials Chat

    Its a LOTTTTTTT SKILL, you get used to it. However saying that balancing on the backwheel is one of the few things that is a fair bit controlled by geometry i.e. tring 2 balance on a giant team trials is harder than on a Zoo because of the different geometry. and 5 seconds is a very long time 2 balance on the backwheel (if you can do it every time not by fluke)!

  21. Tyre

    in Trials Chat

    Posted

    i have tried both tyres and personally found the mich comp to be FAR superior by a long way! Feels like much stronger sidewalls very hard to pinch (harder than the maxxis) grip on it was excellent too and didn't run out as fast as my maxxis did, not a bad price either. :) However saying that both tyre's are excellent I just preffer the mich.
