I remember that day, I'm not surprised your still waiting to be honest. Trials-uk do seem to be taking the piss alot at the moment. From what I'm aware Rich doesn't ride for Trials-uk anymore, but Rich isn't the type of guy to delete a topic to protect the truth.

Really good video there Matt. It's good to see Tim on the bike, I do love what he tries, imagine what goes through his head when he's thinking of a line, lol. No surprise to JAck and his crazy manouvers It was nice to see Hobbsie there, the boy had skills!

May come over for a bit, depends how I feel in the morning.

When the hell did you ever give me that. My cointract with you was layed out that I as a rider for trials-uk would get 35% discount, which was great until I made my first order and you decided that I couldn't get 35% on this that and the other. Dan you really are full of it. Bearded Midget has no recolection of your statement that you were gonna give him a new frame and that you would call him when it came into the country.

Dan, up until now I was riding for you. I've been riding for MAD since June and was still doing my bit for you with advertising and the like, if you assumed that me riding for MAD was us finished then you should have said. As for the price difference, you knew I wasn't happy with the fact that you mis-quoted me on the prices of those products. If peop;e put the effort in to make there complaints to you, there is no way in hell you're gonna take the time to sort them out, as you clearly don't have the time to make sure customers orders are sent out on time.

That list was on the radio this morning, I think it was leaked last night. They were saying that it's illeagal for anyone in the police to be a member of the bnp, and if found to be a member will be sacked.
-
Dan you can do better than that. Fair enough you'd contact him when the frame came, but you could atleast keep him upto date when it's gonna be delayed. Seems like you've said stuff then you've forgotten as per usual. You have given such bad customer service this year that I really can't see trials-uk lasting much longer as only someone stupid would buy from yourself.

meh, I've seen better by the likes of Dave Marshall & Dan Jones

It's raining

There is a minute minority of people that seem to have not been messed about by trials-uk, and you seem to be lucky enough to be one of them. Seriously who hasn't had a problem with trials-uk?
-
Nathan your way off the mark, I've sent two frames back to him before that were cracked, 1 black mumba stock and 1 echo control 2004. Both times Dan took pictures and sent them to the companies, they would then give their response as to whether it was under warranty or not. Dan is really not gonna spend the money to send 1 frame to china or where ever regarding warranty, he's too tight with his money.

Looks like rain sunday now, so I'm gonna miss this one. Sorry Brian

I've used eno's in the past. I had 3, 1 on my stock and 2 on my mod. I had 2 on my mod, because the first one broke, it broke because I didn't checked the cap and it gradually unscrewed until it came off and so did the body of the freewheel. I'm currently runnung a try-all freewheel which is second hand, I've been using it for a month now and had no problems.

I'm sorry to hear about this issue with your frame, I can't comment either way about it, as I've not seen the frame. However, I have dealt with trials-uk for many years and have no decided to NEVER use them again. This is not a result of what I've read on the forum, but just from my own experience. My last dealings with trials-uk was a month or so ago, when I actually went to the shop. I was quoted prices verbally face tpo face, but when was invoiced for them a short while later, I was told that certain parts were more expensive than he thought and so had to charge me more. This isn't the first time he has messed my order up. Dan has know idea about what he's doing, he hasn't got a clue about running a business especially with in the trials industry, his order's almost always seem to be wrong, and thats just for me, and I'm ment to ride for him. I want nothing to do with him now, I was ment to get a set amount of discount on part's, but he kept changing his mind when I'd buy stuff how much discount I'd get. I'm just fed up with him and his company. As many people have probably found, you order parts from trials-uk and when they turn up some items are never quite what you ordered. I've had this plenty of times, his claims his reasons are that the item wasn't in stock blah, blah, blah. So instead of contacting the customer to see what the customer would like to do, he just sends something similar out. I've been out riding with Dan and people come meet him and ask where there stuff is. Thats not how you run a business at all. I'm sorry but anyone who buy's from trials-uk is asking for problems! Stick with making your purchases with reptutable companies, such as: Tarty bikes & Select bike I hope you get your frame sorted out BM.
-
I'm not so sure now. If only 1 person is gonna be out for the entire day then i'l leave it. Sam, its cheaper for you to post it than me get the train over, so i'd rather do that now and give £20 for the frame.
-
I am, every year, they go out of there to keep trials alive within the local area, and I think they deserve a huge thanks for their efforts. Let me know your thoughts Luke, I'l contribute with anything.

That does seem odd. I had Abdab pm me earlier this year because someone told him i was selling my bike, the fact the bike in question was for sale and had been sold and was probably on page 15 by this point, but it seems that things get made up. I can't remember who the other guy was, but it seemed very odd, as I kept getting pm's from his mate and then him, it really annoyed me. It's as if they try and bully you into to stuff and do what they want. Sorry to hear about this Tim, hope it gets sorted. I just found this Abdab clear out I noticed that that's where you (Tim) found the cranks. Abdab claims he's leaving the country and has all these brand new bits to sell, sounds so fishy to me.

Love the way you feel the need to be verbally abusive in a response, real mature Ash.

I think MCC may be doing them next year, from what I know they're be doing it to replace what used to be the south west series. Best bet is to speak to Luke Rainbird or Rich pearson, they live in Devon and Cornwall and tend to do the comps in the area, so they may know. But that would probably be your nearest, either that or the Hampshire bike trial club.

Sian's working so I may come over, will have to check trains are running and weather. Ash get a hair cut before you go to your open day, you might have a shot at getting in
