Fantastic to see a UK rider at this level. Incredible control and power. Great video!

Could you just put out a new video instead Andy . Its been too long and the Vince videos were immense! Video was great, Different but great. Riding was incredible.

I have a Coolpix A. Great camera. It does great video too.

Awesome Riding Ali and great video production. Some many good lines and huge moves. Loved the gap to hook at the 2 min mark.

Best off road cyclist of all time? What a legacy Akkers is going leave behind.

The wheels are too small but thats really impressive. I had an 8 Kg monty Xlite and it felt like it was made of plastic, 6.5 KG is crazy

Thats different Cant really see the idea behind that. However a bike like that to ride like that looks like a good plan.

Ive gotta say, squats help side hops. If you can stand up with 100KG+ on your shoulders, you can fly with a 10kg bike. Obviously without technique it means nothing but power helps a lot! Damon is a beast, so is TRA. Both are static move masters.

Your right, compared to bikes now its superseded but at the time it was immense. One of the first heavily CNC'd frames, Cutting edge geo and super light. Still my favourite bike

Good video, Great riding. That XTP is probably my favourite bike. The 20 rides so well. My mate had the full koxx build XTP 26" and it was perfect. Ahh the good ol'days

I live a mile from Blackstone edge. Its about 15min from the car park to the top but WELL worth it. Its one of the best trials spots in the UK. Ive rode there countless times and always find completely new lines. Send me a PM if you decide to go up.

I actually went to Brimham rocks on Sunday for a day out with the other half. Wish I had seen this, would have popped along for abit. Hope it went well. Quite fancy entering

Pretty sure it was 1085 WB, +10mm BB and 375mm back end (no idea on head angle)

Id go with the Tokina 11-16mm F2.8. Great build quality to match the 7D and Constant 2.8 (will be handy for interior interviews)

Tartybikes, Adam and Dave have helped develop the industry to such an extent. Adams always been a huge contribution to this site too Some contributions off the top of my head Inspired Trialtech Tartydays Sponsorship of world class riders (Danny Mac, Ali C, Vince etc) Providing bikes and components to the majority of the the UK trials riders

Great riding!

Cheers for the Comments. If your riding up at Blackstone edge at some point Adam give me a shout. I live less than 5 min away. Those Try All tyres were great, these ones not so much, the front one has a hole in the sidewall and the rubbers all cracked. It was still in my parents shed from my old bike and better that the Maxxis Dual play that was on there when I got it. Might try out the new Kevlar ones!

http://youtu.be/U7lBF6kxehQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7lBF6kxehQ&feature=youtu.be Not had a trials bike for around 7 years. I decided to give it another go so me and my mate both bought bikes again. Little bit messy but getting there. Clips are filmed over 4-5 rides over last couple of months and are pretty much chronological.

Awesome riding!

I used to use a 2.5 Maxxis Minion or a Try All Tyre on the rear of my Levelboss (similar age). Never had a problem. Is it just rubbing one side?

I don't have a trials bike at the moment, however I do have an XC bike that Im now going out to ride trials on. Unbelievable stuff. This is up there with Danny April 09 Video for me.

Excellent video, Crazy level of riding all round. No offence intended but Joe is far better than I ever remember, Huge highly technical riding, Certainly one of the most enjoyable if not the most enjoyable video i have seen in years
