    Why dont you send me these vids you b*****d. Was ok riding
  2. Who is it in the first three pictures with the yellow bike and a cap on??? That tap looks well old and is massive. I want to say it looks like kenny belay, but I dont know who it is?
  3. OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO could be a good un.
  4. I hate to say it but were old. When those films came out we were young and just starting to learn cool stuff and for me anyway it was the first time seeing alot of the stuff. Also stuff like evolve was properly made and was at a time when trials was becoming a bit more popular. Now were all seasoned and know everything it is rare to see a vid that shows you something you havent seen before. EDIT: partz above makes the same point as me but from his perspective
  5. 90 taps switch taps half pedalling up whatever you could
  6. ah nice one ian for clearling that up. I thought the headangle was more like 73. Maybe martyn was trying to keep it a secret
  7. Im going by tartys geo which says ashton 1060, 380 chainstays and 72 headangle. EDIT: from ashtonbikes.com Spec: Chainstay length: 380mm (Centre B/B to rear axle) Wheelbase: 1065mm Bottom Bracket height: 20mm Rise Head tube angle: 72 degrees Colour: Red
  8. Have I missed something, or is the ashton not exactly the same geo as the 04 control???
  9. Scott are you riding 26?? If so, your mine
  10. I think you will find saxo's are the shit. Stupid boys on bikes Especially bllue ones, 5 door, back seats down fits a couple of bikes in easy, plus mine has injection. But in all honesty I dont really care for cars that much.
  11. Heli coils have always seemed to be fine with me.
  12. There is a really sound crew in poole and bournemouth go to NBR And check them all out. Should be out on saturday evening hopefully.
  13. Yeah but for some people that is fun and spinning is not.
  14. When will you announce the team???
  15. When I went to portugal I rented a planet x one from a local shop. If your going to be traveling alot with your bike then I think a good bag will be worth it. But if its only going to be this time on a plane then you can try and rent one or get a cheap one and pack it well as james said. The planet x one I used was really good. Dont know where to get one from, but at least it wont crack
  16. Oh I see. I reckon it would be well fun
  17. Fred, did terry tell you that you couldnt ride your 24??

    Grinding Help

    Yeah I grind at 90 or close to 90 degrees. I have grinded my rim before and its made the brake worse, you have to just try out what works best with the way you do it. Im really quick with mine and once the rim is on the floor only takes me 2 minutes. I try not to go over the same part to often. You will feel immidiatly if it is a good grind or not with your fingers. I find a stone cutting disc crap, and try using a fresh disc.

    Koxx Days

    Have to love koxx. And I just seen £20 for the first national. Did I miss out on the part where all trials riders won euro millions??
  20. I might come adam. Not sure, but a possibility
  21. Could some one be a darling and give me a link to it on a map or something please as I left my slip at work.
  22. Triton Also pics below in sig.
  23. I want to ride and have emailed fred savage. But I guess I wont be able too
  24. DMR V12 all day long. Had my ones year and a half at least. The bearings are slowly dieing now, but you can easily get hold of dmr replacements. I have lost only one pin in this time. My ones are the magnesium ones, but as far as Im aware that is only the body so doesnt affect anything but the price and weight.
