Sheesh! You sure did get a lot of pictures on that ride, the rididng looks like it was mint too :turned:
-
Nice pics, did he make that up to drop? He looks like he didnt quite land on top and also it seems to big to be able to land... Anyway some nice moves in there too :turned:
-
Ok, no offence but that seemed a serious waste of time to make, even if it is something different. I am not saying you shouldnt use your time on stuff like this, im just saying that i wouldnt...

24 pounds is a good weight for a double disc 26" comp bike, if thats what youre aiming for then go for it. Every little thing should be taken into account, from your seat to your wheels, forks etc, every little gram here and there adds up. It wont matter if you over drill your rims or whatever to save weight as im guessing you wont be using it for street.

No, you dont use a pedal kick as that would throw you off sideways, a proper spin stays on a tight spot.
-
Not a bad drop, but you need to work on pulling the bike steeper in the air, this gives a much better landing as you seemed to land flat nearly. Basically hop right to the edge, lower the front wheel, lightly pressure the pedals and kind of roll of the edge smoothly then pull the bike quite steep in the air and make a nice landing on the back wheel, abosrbing the impact with your legs.

Cool pics, your bike looks sweet. I have noticed that not many people have kenny beleay signature frames, they are not common like zoo pitbulls etc. :turned:
-
That is awesome, they look damn impressive on video too :lol:

I dont think that riding them is right, if you did you would be giving trials riders everywhere a bad name, which we already have problems with. For some reason people see us as bad vandals because we ride on walls but they are idiots because they ignore chavs who spraypaint and smash things in the street. Rididng memorials would just push their opinion further. :lol:

Depending on what frame you are running, i would go for the echo rim. It is plenty wide enough for most frames brake mounts, and looks sweet too. It is also plenty strong too which is always a bonus. If you dont like that then go for the ronnie, nice rim and pretty strong if built correctly (same with any other rim).

The old viz, hog and koxx drilled rims arent shit at all, they are more for smoother riders though. If youre going to go for any, go for the viz if you like colour choice or the hog if youre not bothered. I run a koxx rim, but as people have said they dont come with eyelets so thats a downer. Also, if i remeber rightly they are more expensive than the other two rims. At the time when i bought the koxx rim the viz and hog rims werent out though, so i couldnt get them. You shouldnt have a problem with the hog rim unless you are a heavy rider... (Y)

Spins are easy when you know the right tecnique, i can do 540's on the rear wheel now after much practice (its my favourite move). The key is to lean into the opposite direction before you start the spin, also turn the handlebars the opposite way too. This gives you good leverage to whip the bike round. When you have started the spin, keep your head facing round the way you are spinning and lean into it to keep the spn going. Practice it and youll get it eventually. Its a really good showoff trick.

True, the national competitions are strict with rules where as local club comettions dont care so much about little things like that. I can understand the rule as it helps divide the twqo bike categories because nowadays stocks are basically mods with big wheels. Frames and parts have become more and more trials specific as time has gone on.

They are good for 9 days riding , i didnt like the music though and the riding did get very repetitive after a bit. Apart from that, decent video (Y)
-
As usual crazy riding, but what happened to the quality? It isnt as good as your other videos i have seen...
-
Sorry but its gonna take me 3 hours to download, stuff that (Y)
-
Sweet pics, some good moves there :)
-
Thats exactly how i feel, if magura thought that water would have been better then they probably would have used it as it is cheapre than mineral fluid. Also, i dont feel that it makes my brake any better, it feels too light at the lever.
-
Sweet pictures, as usual neil tunni is pulling some jaw dropping stuff, that last one would make a very nice desktop background :)
-
Mint video, some good riding in there and the music was different for once. It makes a refreshing change from rock, punk etc. The only annoying thing that other people have mentioned too is the abrupt ending.
-
Cool pics, but what is happening in the third picture? Is he getting up the crates or dropping off?
-
-
He is one hell of a rider, makes huge sidehops and taps look easy, in the rain too! That sidehop at the end up the slippy steel lorry looked impossible but he did it easily (2nd time). All in all a mint video despite what andrew t and his crew are saying on otn... (Y)
-
Sweet pics, some cool riding. Your hi-fi looks nice too (Y)
-
That alibongo is sweet as, you seem to keep making it better, how do you afford it? Anyways it by far looks better than the zebdi, which for some reason doesnt look right :huh:
