  1. Personally I don't like to see any flips in the future of trials. All these huge CLS drop gap stuff pisses me off already. I prefer a more technical riding, rather than insane, powerful drop gaps, flips or any kind of moves where it's mainly about raw power and crazyness. But that's just my personal opinion. Beside that, flips and trials doesn't really fit together. When done by bmx riders, it's ok as their sport is more fluently and involves more riding, rather than balancing and static moves. Flips on a trials bike would look pretty dumb then...
  2. Can someone please measure how wide the inner part of the runner is?
  3. Great topic Anyway... here's a video of a guy doing a frontflip with almost no run up. I'd say it's just a matter of how fast you rotate your body/bike http://youtube.com/watch?v=GcfNV6_XR7U
  4. I wonder if the chain could jump out of that plastic runner? Maybe they should have made the inner part a little deeper, so that the plastic runner kind of wraps around the chain and holds it in place... But maybe it's just fine that way...
  5. Finally a nice color scheme on those xtps, black and white ***
  6. Word! Then I would kick Kenny's ass
  7. Happy Birthday kid God I wish I was 13 again...
  8. What's the wheelbase? And does it somehow feel short, due to the higher bb? And what crank/bb/sprocket setup do you have? Would a 118mm bb fit as well?
  9. Tarty doesn't stock them, only the 20t atm. Are there any other online shops in the Uk, where I can get it from?

    Last Coust Vid

    I already posted that on OT. I guess it's time to reveal the truth! Here is TRA's equipment: - invisible cables attached to a harness vest, pulling him up the rocks - tiny hydraulic air-ramps shooting his bike into the air
  11. Sounds good, but they have a different bb yoke. I think I'll just give it a try then...

    Box Sesh...

    At least you didn't freak out and throw your bike around lol Props for finally making the move - in the dark! I can't see shit as soon as it gets a little dark outside..
  13. What sprocket size do you have on the front? Maybe you could just measure the clearance? That would be nice!
  14. Is that a 18t fixed cog on the front? 128mm isis bb? If so, can you please measure how much clearance there is between the cog and the bb yoke? Also crank-chainstay clearance please. I'd like to use a narrower bb, like 118mm... Thanks!
  15. hmmm.. the 04 has a different bb yoke. Damn, those 128mm isis bbs are so expensive
  16. I need the chainring clearance with a 18t fixed cog. I'm looking for a 118mm bb, as they're cheaper and lighter Not sure if that will fit though... Thanks!
  17. And what about Danny Butler's custom carbon forks? That could be an option for you as well... Maybe you get some nice carbon legs from him?
  18. Now that is something oldschool! Don't they look pretty in their skin suits?
  19. And he's probably the only rider at the gate with a finger on his brake! He's a race noob
  20. Michelin HOT S 2.2 tyres, dark red, not available to the public, just for the french pro riders. Michelin tyres were the shit in the late 90s! Narrow Mavic rims with 1.95/400g tyres on the front Thomas Öhler's 8,3kg stock bike Thierry "the cat" Girard 92cm sidehop over a bar -> world record (stock) sidehops from both wheels to both wheels Magura kool stop pads + tar
