    I Am Gay

    DAM-DUMB TISH I meant if someone stays logged on and a friend finds it, they would come up with something funnier to post than "I'm gay"...

    I Am Gay

    Tell whoever started this topic that we get like 2 of these topics a month and they need to be much more original next time.
  4. I like that. After running through every colour in my head i can't see it being anything else.
  5. That would be amazing. But they'd have to bring back Anne Robinson.
  6. How many frames will have had to have been bought (that wouldn't have been if it didn't have a disc mount) to make it worth while for the extra cost of the disc mount? 1 to every 30 sold?
  7. I disagree with that reason, I feel the reason trials bike sell so low is because it's a minority sport, there's just a handful of people who would ever consider buying it (and out of those people, they don't want a full build but parts) and that drives the prices down to rock bottom. Also what doesn't help is there's a lot of people (within the trials community) selling stuff, because trials is a relatively cheap sport compared to downhill rigs people will splash out on new parts meaning not only do they not buy 2nd hand, but sell their old parts on flooding the market with parts dropping the prices. (Which actually you kind of said). I don't think I've ever seen a trials bike sell for more than 550 pounds whatever the spec was.
  8. Don't have your wheel slammed into the dropouts?
  9. Well i suppose not, i just don't really see the point, but then again if they haven't done a koxx and rebranded and upped the price, and are selling them at what they normally sell at, you're putting money into trialtech hands instead of somewhere else, which is good.
  10. But they could have a perfectly good reason as to why he wasn't accepted. Why start this topic when you don't know what that reason was?
  11. Typo The thing is trialtech do make really good products, but i don't get why they have to throw in all these re-branded products, why not just go down the same road heatsink do and just sell their own stuff.
  12. Everyone has dyslexia these days. Just because you have slight problems with words and spellings etc just means you have problems with words and spellings. It seems to me it's such a common thing that it shouldn't have a name. For example, if you have a hard time remembering dates for a history test, where as other people don't have much of a problem, there isn't come medial name for that.
  13. So, how much of the trials tech stuff list actually just re branded parts? And which are original designs?
  14. I explain to them why i don't have a seat...
  15. Try ebay and the such, but they sell for over their retail price if they're in good condition, I sold mine for around $30.
  16. Well hitting a child in the face IS child abuse. I know you were referring away from children but just wanted to make that clear. It's just where you draw the line, you could tie your child up and leave them in a cupboard over night. That'll be more effective that a smack, but we don't do that. I guess there's going to be a vote so the whole of NZ can decide where that line is.
  17. That's bull, there's a good number of kids out there who were never smacked when they were a kid, and they know if they do wrong they get punished and the difference between right and wrong. Usually people who smack kids do it because they don't know how to discipline a child correctly, hitting and yelling 'don't do that' is something that would work with dogs, but kids need to be taught why they can't do that. If a kid runs out into the road, and the parent smacks the kid, what's the kid learnt? Don't do that again. Where as if a kid runs out in the middle of the street and gets shouted at initially, then the parents explain why you can't do that. Which'll have more effect?
  18. Smacking children does work, but i feel there's better ways to punish a child without physically harming them. I'm not sure where i stand on it being illegal though.
