Rear wheel complete ready to fit tmz. Even my cat is doing trials now, just Soo exited about getting it built and ridden -
Corrosion and dirty seals seems to be top of the list for problems here. Sticky pistons leaking brakes chain skipping ect all due partly to dirty corroding parts. Or crashing, using the wrong oils

661 recon, fox flux, specialized tactic or if your feeling flush, poc trabec race or trabec The poc has lots of kevlar wraped round it to stop puncture damage and a kevlar skeleton making it much stiffer.

I probbaly put the wrong hub. It's the halo singlespeed hub same as the hope trial hub. Just different pawl setup. Taking a but of a risk trying it out for trials I just like the 6 pawl system it looks much like the insides of my tensile freewheel. I already had the shimano cranks I will probably get something stronger when they break. -

If an obstacle is above bar height I find a good dab to lift your bike with your foot sorts out any problems you get

whats the best way to fix a sticky slave piston?
dezmtber replied to Carlperkins's topic in Trials Chat
Oil it up with o-ring lube (silicon oil) its the slipperyest thing on earth, it unseazes anything. -
Beats maggy, bites like maggy with braded hoses 3 boosters on a fresh grind on a hot dry day. Only discs do this when its pissing it down in winter

Yes hope will replace a broken clamp, so long as you go to where you bought them from to get warrant on it

How to get yourself noticed in bike trials?
dezmtber replied to Callum219's topic in Beginners Trials Chat
Organise a stand at the next town show in the park. Or get involved with the local cycling club, yes even if its a road club -
Alloy still corrodes next time you see someone riding an alloy road bike check the bottle mounts and around the bb at the back. The paint flakes and the alloy corrodes And rubber corrodes so you brake seals corrode and bearing seals are corroding Alloy still corrodes next time you see someone riding an alloy road bike check the bottle mounts and around the bb at the back. The paint flakes and the alloy corrodes And rubber corrodes so you brake seals corrode and bearing seals are corroding not saying you need to clean and oil it after every ride but now and again wouldn't hurt

Wear a bright top -
The lever feel is much better if you want it to feel sharp. The hope is a little softer with more modulation. But the hold is the same they both stop your wheel dead. Both would make anyone on here happy they bought them. Shimano 2year warranty is good they fix any problem without question. So long as the brake is clean and cared for. Hope lifetime warrany on alloy parts. All rubber brass and pistons avalable to service the brake . Imo hope will keep you going for years and years Shimano for 2 then after your on your own

It stops corrosion, helps keep the bike clean, helps reduce seazed pistons and seazing gear parts

Freewheels are all failing here and there its luck and what happens to them during bedding in. Its not always how heavy you are its more down to how rough you are on the pedals. I f Used to pedal with a striking motion hitting the freewheel hard and used to smash all the freewheels I had. Now i preload the pedal carfully engaging the pawls before putting the power down. Been using a tensile 60 for months with no problems.
