Hey all, it's been a while... I've been looking into various riding shoes that provide more ankle support and I'm torn between the Five Ten Impact High and the Freerider High. Have any of you tried either of these? I've been running the low Freeriders for years but I just need something over my ankle. Thanks! https://www.adidasoutdoor.com/FT41.html?dwvar_FT41_color=Black&cgid=fiveten-men-bike-shoes https://www.adidasoutdoor.com/FT30.html?dwvar_FT30_color=Black&cgid=fiveten-men-bike-shoes

I've got a really strange issue... I haven't ridden a lot lately but this has happened every time I get on the bike, so at least once or twice a week for the last month. This usually happens once when I first get on the bike, and then often throughout my ride. When I put my right foot on the pedal the first time and then pretty much any time I land a decent size gap, my right ankle totally folds, with my foot going inward. I have no other ankle pain, but this literally puts me on the ground out of nowhere and hurts like hell. 2 minutes later, I'm totally fine. Anyone ever had this? Should I get checked? Thanks. JN

I can tell you all this... It really feels terrible to be in America today.... I can't believe that we voted for this. I might move to the UK... I hear there's this thing called trials over there.

Sweet, I'll take a peek!

Any other filmmakers or camera gearheads here? Post your videos, gear pics, etc. Looking to see people's professional or serious camera work. Let's see what we can get! For example, here's my film demo reel. Let's all chip in and get a video/film thread going!

Thanks all! Funny enough, if I had to pick 2 people that have supported me the most in trials, it would be Herbert and Andy. A special thanks to you guys!

The spot is in New Lebanon New York, United States.

Hey all! I've been pushing my riding really hard lately, and decided I would post some rough clips from the last couple rides. This wasn't filmed with fancy cameras or edited thoroughly, just an edit for fun. For reference, I've been riding for 2 and a half years now. I would love any advice or feedback that you have! Enjoy! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4KpO89gWZK8

Hey all! I filmed this video for Aurelien when he came to Colorado! Enjoy!

Hey all, here's another video I made for Csaba Ati. Enjoy!

Thanks!

Thank you!

Hey everyone. I've been working for over a month on this video for Csaba Ati, here it is. Enjoy! Johannes

Hey. So I've got an Echo SL non disc front hub on my bike and the shell is super worn so the whole thing is rattling around... I want to replace it, but I don't want to have to get rid of my spokes in the process. This is the hub I have, but I can't find dimensions for it anywhere. http://www.hbtrials.com/product.php?productid=16786&cat=314&page=2 I want to replace it with this, or anything that will fit once I find the dimensions. http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/front_non_disc_hubs/echo_tr_non_disc/c86p10592.html Anyway, do you know the dimensions of my SL hub? I searched all night and came up with nothing... Thanks a ton, Johannes

All new except the slaves, which are lightly used. Won't m5x40 bolts bottom out because of the shorter mounts?

Thanks!

Hey guys, second question in the last couple of minutes. I've been using magura slaves in Neon Wing brake clamps, and they will NOT stop slipping! Anybody have a way of keeping them in place? Also, what length bolts would I need to use them with an echo four bolt booster? Thanks, Johannes

Hey guys. So I was going to build up a rim with a 546mm ERD and bought spokes but now I want to build a rim with a 543mm ERD. Can I still pull off using the same spokes? Thanks, Johannes

Sweet!

That's sweet!

Okay, thanks.

Sweet! Anything I should be aware of before purchasing?

Sort of oldschool... My main ride is a WTF frame made by Frank The Welder. I also have a super light pogo stick but I find that I ride this thing a lot more. Before I got it, it was used by Lance Trappe to set the front wheel hop world record. Pretty sweet!

Hey. Do any of you guys have any experience with the Panasonic Lumix G7 camera or similar? I'm planning on starting a small video business, as well as potentially switching to a film/video production major in college, and I'm trying to decide what camera to save for as a starter. The G7 looks almost perfect. It's not too expensive and will take the Nikon lenses I already have. My only concerns are: - No high frame rates in 4k - I don't think it can output to a monitor while recording - No headphone jack Anyway, have any of you ever used a camera like this? Or any of the similar Panasonic cameras? I'd really appreciate your opinion if you have.

Looks nice!
