  1. odd usually if you have microsoft you will have windows movie maker already on. best bet is to try google or a "file sharing" server to see if you can download it from there. If you haven't done a wizard set up for it then it won't run so best bet is open it up again and see if it installs if not restart your computer and see what happens. if all else fails download again.
  2. you could say a helmet is just a helmet and a bike is just a bike but i really think i good helmet is worth buying as you always wear it and not be put off if you buy a cheaper one and you don't think it looks good, if you get what i mean. hope that helps Tom
  3. a lot of topics are repeated i guess people just don't look oh well. best thing to do is submerge all the maggie in a bucket of water and get all of the oil out of the system. then use another bucket of water to re bleed your brake by putting your finger or thumb over the end of the lever bleed valve and let go of the lever blade. repeat the process until there is no more bubbles come out of anywhere. sorry if that made no sense
  4. its up to you at the end of the day but yellow look kinda different and cool or orange if you can get them or white i like white up to you though dude
  5. there good chains but they get stiff links really easily. i run a kmc now and i have to say i like it better than the khe i ran. its not just the chain that makes it strong its how good you re-link the chain.
  6. was going to say that second hand forks are a bad idea as you don't know how abused they are but they look in really good nick so i would say yes good price if they don't go about 35 english pounds
  7. alright man welcome to trial forum
  8. haha not its fine wasn't having a go was a fair topic i just think there both the same so why pay more
  9. watch videos of riders u like and try and mimic what they do when they gap. practice makes perfect at the end of the day. well not perfect but u will get better
  10. i'm sure there was a topic on this not so long ago . i haven't tried them so i can't really say, but there not bad for the money as you get pads,bolts and nice cnc'd mountings and they also look really cool and different. i like my maggie and am sure alot of people would just stick with theres.
  11. seems pointless to be honest. only point of hydrolic brakes is so there is sharper and more power when stopping. would be interesting to see how long they last and how they actually work.
  12. if all fails go to your local car garage as they will probably do helli coil. The strength of it will be how well they do it and they probably won't even charge you.
  13. You should buy a magura bleed kit with hose clamps. these are two blocks of plastic that hold the hose secure when put in a vice and prevents the hose from kinking or breaking. Then all you have to do is tap the barbed nipple into the hose. thats the only way i have been able to do it.
  14. for either model you have to take the lever blade out with an allen key and then wind the tpa fully out until the threaded plunger comes free from the lever. on the 2005 you will have to pull the adjuster off with some pliers and if its the 2006 it should just drop out.The just put your new adjuster in and screw the plunger back in and put the leaver back on. jobs hopefully a gudden. take your time but you can't really go wrong just try not to thread the new tpa adjuster.
  15. wow rather impressive nice machined bash ring
  16. wow very impressive loving the high drops! only downfall was short. longer video next time but was really good keep it up!
  17. try halfords they do it and make sure you do it quite tight as there is a lot of pressure on sprocket.
  18. can actually make it stronger in the slightest bit hehe eg. powdercoating the frame has a really hard finish but not even worth talking about to be honest.
  19. technically its better to sidehop opposite as like you say your pedal is in the way. but watever is comfy really just keep doing it the way you like and try opposite to push yourself. as you probably seen neil tunnicliffe can get rather high and he sidehops "the wrong way".
  20. if it aint broke don't change it. but mono trials are such a much better designed
  21. same don't last 2 minutes but i like them and there cheap so meh
  22. i just run a high pressure and for natural a soft tyre you would be all over the place really hard to control
  23. they are magic brakes! but ye gud point am sorry for any offence on any v-brake lovers
