Do it John, I reckon it would help your riding out loads!

As Matt said, they're a very thin, plain looking fork, and seem to have a huge amount of rake and the leg length seems longer than usual. People are used to forks like Echo Lites, Echo Urbans, etc. and when they see these they just assume they're poor quality Onza stuff. Also isnt the "Comp" the top spec one? Yet comes with (from what I assume) unsealed axle-bolt hubs? I think you need to redesign your budget parts to include simple things like allen bolts, rather than axle-nuts, just makes the bike look a bit less budget and a bit more professional. I'm not denying the bikes are brilliant value for money, but your allen bolt disc hub is only £10 more expensive than the axle-bolt non disc hub, surely you could make a set of non-disc and disc allen bolt hubs to put front and rear even on the cheapest bikes, and not up the price that much? I dunno what kinda markup you make on these products, but simple things like that would make the bikes look so much nicer. Maybe it's because I'm used to seeing the T-bird/pro/master range, which had obvious differences, yet with these seems like all you're changing is brakes and cranks? I know the frame changes on the Pro/Blade/Comp, but to a beginner stuff like that isn't obvious. I really like what you're doing though with regards to your budget bikes, I think it's awesome, but if it were me, I'd rather sacrifice a bit of markup for a few bits and pieces that will help your reputation no end. If I bought one of those Pro bikes, the things I'd do would be change front/rear hubs to allen bolt versions, change the forks, bar, and stem, apart from that I think it's a cracking little bike. I really think you should use the old t-master stem instead of those scary thin looking things too. Summary: Use allen bolt hubs (even if they're unsealed) just to make the bike look nicer, also saves the riders having to carry around a wonking great spanner out on rides with them.

The thing is, it's a catch 22, to make the rims cheaper, they need to make more, but to increase the demand for them so they make more, they need to make them cheaper. It might last the same length of time as 5 normal rims, but who's willing to drop £75 on what is, as far as we can see, an untested rim. I know the Onza team have been using them, but we hear so little about them, that people aren't willing to drop that kinda money on something. With something like Try-All, you know it will have been tested, and you know the big riders who are testing them, with Onza, I know I think Andre, Scott Wilson? and Joe Seddon are on the team, but in all honesty I don't really know how good those guys are (I know they're good enough to be sponsored and win comps, and thats not me saying that I could do any better or ride harder, but I dunno, they rarely bring out videos so you can see their riding, whereas with the Koxx team, you regularly see videos from comps, and also checking the results helps you decide if the products are any good or not). Plus, dropping £35 on a rim is a lot easier to justify than £75. If I drop £35 on a rim and it lasts me 5 rides, yeah I'd be pissed, but £35 doesn't seem so bad, you know, £40 is two twenties in the wallet, not exactly a lot of money, dropping £75 on a rim that lasts 5 rides, I'd be f**king fuming that I had just dropped nearly £100 on a rim, and it died within a few rides. Also they bring out this "lightweight" rim, yet add 50g with eyelets, What's the point in that? I know people do get spokes pull out, but so many manufacturers produce un-eyeletted rims, so you would have thought Onza would have looked at this and gone "Hmm, no one else runs eyelets, and you rarely hear people complaining about the rims on the forum, so lets not bother" Instead they went "We'll just ignore what most manufacturers do and put these eyelets on even though they're not necessary, yeah we're trying to build a light rim, but Onza is a family business, surely that will sell products!", or words to that effect. To sum up: I don't think you'll sell many.

Theres a shit load of chat about this in the news thread, http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/forum/index....t&p=1669755 EDIT: Also the thing is, I run disc brakes, I don't want a brushed sidewall, I want black sidewalls! Why didn't they do that, as was said in the thread, if they had left it with anodized sidewalls, then the rim brake users would grind it off, and the disc brake users would leave it on. I really can't see these being a big seller, but we'll see.

That's the main problem, every single persons idea of a "best" brake is different. While koolstops may have worked for you, for a more technically demanding rider, they probably wont be up to the job. Not bashing your riding, but you know what i mean.

WHEN EVERYTHING YOU GET IS, EVERYTHING THAT YOU WANTED PRINCESS..... tuuuuune

Can get kits to fix it yourself for a fiver off ebay. http://shop.ebay.co.uk/?_from=R40&_trk...mp;_nkw=x-clamp

No probs man, was easier for me to find you the link anyway rather than you trawl around looking for it.

I'm not gonna get back with her, not after what happened. Just well weird for her to text me. I knew she would do it too, as soon as she realised she has lost me, she wants me back.

For some reason I expected you to look like Simon

The wheels are too big!! Nah, hope you get on alright with it man

Fancy going back to 24" hey Luke

Oooh... cool *is due an upgrade in December*

Where did you hear that?

All the tar I've ever seen people using just goes shitty in the rain and doesn't work at all.

f**king RROD. Just filled out the form on the Microsoft website. My warranty runs out in 2 months so I guess the timing isn't too bad! EDIT: Also bought a RROD x-clamp fix kit from ebay for a fiver, so if it does it again I should be all good! Just hope it doesnt take forever

What's that? It's raining? All your tar has turned into a drippy mess on your rim and your brake wont hold? I'll stick with my dual discs

Weird. I know people who have been running them 2+ years...

Sick sick! You and the Swindon boys will have to come ride Weston soon if I can persuade my mates out!

You're gonna rip shit on that. I would come up today for... but the weather is looking pretty suspect, so I think I'm gonna go see a lady friend instead. Hope you have a good time and kill Bristol!! Ride soon man EDIT: When's the mod coming? Then you'll have one of each

Ex is texting me telling me she misses me...

Awesome vid man
