  1. they all look very interesting, but there is no mention of geometry, weight or anything. I understand there prototypes but they just seem to be 5 frames in a competition of how many different things they can CNC on one bike. One of them has taken the BB bit straight off the XTP. cant think of any more commernts

  2. Hello, I'm looking to go to Porthcawl and there doesnt seem to be a train station there according to the train website. Which station is neaest to there coming from Southampton persumably on the Cardif central line. Then to where? Any other details on getting there would be nice? please

  3. Quick comment, the sites jonny jones gave as examples of even more shockingly bad sites were realy that much worse, the first 1 the timer thing went up as it was loading.

    the video was shockingly good, the best bit was were ur camera nearly blew over and u caught it, clearly u didnt look inpressed, cracked me up that did, how do you back wheel that high.???????????????????????????????????????????????????????

  4. bike trials as it is known is only like 15 years old max. In 1989ish the first competitor actually hopped on a bike and that was when it kicked off. before that they just used to get off the saddle and ride into stuff hoping to get over it not go over the bars.

    My be incorrect but but thats what the extreme channel sed last week

    Back the the arguement as it now is.

    I am aware that Matt B can ride trials and he'd probly beat me at it but atm i am talking about styles. and his is more bmxy-trials alot of (not all) the time.

  5. in my mind there's no such thing as ''real'' trials. theres trials wether it be street or natural AND THEN theres trials/something else.

    For example:::::::: if you've got a trials bike but all you do is bunny hop gaps and bunny hop up stuff, is that trials? because you can bunny hop on and bike.

    What im saying is it doesnt matter what bike you have but as long as you are riding trials it is real trials. And as for rider like matt berridg ei wouldnt class that as trials, except when he does trials moves (rarely). To me his style and others alike is a new disapline of riding somewhere between mountain biking/bmxing

  6. I will buy some tickets when I can (i.e. pay day). Would be nice to get myself a little mod going on, or alot of money. lol

    I am more on the side of more tickets being sold as too less being sold hense upping my chances. There is alot of money to be raised to fund this event so people best get buying.

    Edit: myself included

  7. impressive stuff and nice vid but the vid itself lacks something compared to ur 20" vids, just compare this vid to the epic that was ''Z00 23''. They are a completely different kettle of fish.

    But you do seem to know no limits on any bike.

  8. cheers for the comments people, James, the vid was made kinda quickly and we only had enough footage to make the vid as long as it is. Shame realy because it was goin quite well.

    Not quite used to the xtp fully yet, keping goinover the bars and losin the front end off things, also i couldnt gather the bottle to get the rail line at the waterfront dialled so gotta go back to bristol soon. lol

  9. shut up dan, u lift urself up of the forks and rim both wheels doing so, works but its a bit of a frame wrecker. Just think how many frames you have had and broken (cough 5), kinda proves my point.

    Disc was making ''turkey'' noises last nite and working the same, tonight it doesnt make any noise and it doesnt work half as good, need a straight rotor i thinki lol.
