  1. I have them on my jump bike, I'm pretty sure it was from riding home as I don't remember pinching them at the skate park. I'm looking at options to run them on my trials bike, which will be more street than pure trials. I don't want to put max PSI in and was looking at a thicker tube, inserts or trying to run them tubeless. I can just about get the 2.25 in there as I have an inner tube wrapped round the chainstay. I've test fitted the wheel from the jump bike.
  2. Hi, I'm limited to the tyres I can run on my bike due to it being old and having poor tyre clearance. I've gone with Billy Bonkers as I have them on my Jump bike but I've had a few puncture with them. What is the best option as they can't be run tubeless.
  3. Yeah, currently thinking Hope Fortus Wheelset, Hope Evo Cranks that are spare, Hope Trial Zone Brakes.
  4. The frame and fork are fresh back from Orange Bikes with no damage to report and sporting a new paint job and original decals. Now the hard part, deciding on how to build it up.
  5. Do you know what rear mech hanger I need and where to get one as the current one has seen better days.
  6. I take it back, I was looking at the older hub. I thought Chris King was expensive
  7. I don't think the fork is all too strong either. I've been told to keep the original Orange seat but I hate it. I doubt I'll even start building it this year but maybe a HS33 on the rear and a disc upfront. I know a 2.35 tyre fits in the rear as I threw on the wheel that's going on my P7 but to be on the safe side I think I'll go 2.1. First thing, if I do anything would to strip it and get it powder coated again and new decals.
  8. I've generally boiled my rotors and then sanded them but there comes a point when they are past it.
  9. My frame has v brake mounts for a 26 inch wheel. Is there an adapter for the v brake mount so that I can run a 24 inch wheel and a HS-33 or do I simply just need to run a disc brake? Thanks
  10. I rode trials many years ago and recently decided I'd buy a Orange Zero for nostalgia and I'm deciding what to do with it build wise. It's currently sitting in the garage and I'm in no rush to build it as I'm still sorting my winter single speed project out. I'm not sure if I want to go period trials as it was in the day or change it up and make it a bit more street. My initial thinking is stick a very short travel fork on, dual discs and minimal gears.
  11. Hi, I've got a few since I stopped riding trials many years ago.
