Ask Dan Ko @ Trials-UK, I'm sure he's got some somewhere, maybe not new but... He may have them for "personal use" though. (For advertising e-mail banners@trials-forum.co.uk) - erm looks like I can't post his MSN... however you can find it on the site.

Looks forking pimp Dan, white primer came out pretty good in the end eh. Shame it's a mod but ah well KS-1 soon hmmmmmmmmmmmmm?

Not really interested in purchasing (I have a Christopher King ) but just out of interest, what size sprocket will the 26" hub have? One for use with 16T screw on rings?

What the hell!? Where's he taken off from!? Amazing pictures and brilliant riding, very impressive

Try resetting your homepage to the forum index. I had a similar problem until I did that.

I'm a firestarter! Erm anyway, can we please some of that 10 foot gapping on your mates 24"!!!!!!!!!!! Amazing!!!!!!!! OMFG!!!! Actually seeing as your so terribly "injured" lets have just 9 foot, should be a doddle for you. Oh and a pic of that 12 foot up 10 foot out drop gap would be awesome! Even if it is just a picture of the gap and not you doing it, I'm sure we can all just *imagine* you doing it then eh. I'm dissapointed you never talk about any of that on this forum, I'm sure people would be very impressed pete...

Can't be bothered to find a proper picture of it but that's Ko man's Gayorta. Looks proper nice in the flesh.

Nicked?

Hmm, better than last year. That had to of been a record number of dickheads ever taking part in an event. Those Cuban twats best not be about this time 'n' all...

What the hell happened to just putting the "Gumball 3000" sticker on and going around like that. All the cars look f**king awful now, stickered up like a 12 year old MBUK subscriber's bike. Nice cars though...

Not really? There's definitely a cut off point, the lowest I'd ever want to tap is 30". Any lower and you take out so much speed and energy that you don't get much out not to mention it really starts killing forks. I think really it's the higher the obstacle the lower from the *top* of the obstacle you need to tap. Which is obvious anyway to be honest.

HAHA! Took ages to find that again

You really have to force yourself to do it. If I'm having a bad day of taps it's usually because of this, very much a confidence thing. I find thinking about exactly where I'mg going to hit the wall with my front wheel helps alot. And as you're maxing out at just over bar height try practicing the technique on 36-7" walls as it'll give you a bit more confidence with riding straight into solid walls

Pedal later. That'll pretty much force you into tapping and is better technique anyway as you get a kind of kick during/after the tap. Hard to explain but yeah, try pedaling later.

To stop all this beating about the bush: Waynio Now I'm done with this thread...

Koxx site More details on there.

Yeah well the important thing is you made the gap, forget the bike, you clearly made the 10 foot.

Is that really true? Bugger me that might explain why my Mrs kicked up such a fuss over me "forgetting" her the other day haha She told me all sorts of side effects and shit you get with the pill but didn't say anything about emoness hahaha Well she might of but I kinda got distracted when she mentioned bigger boobs...... Anyway, when you bagged her just before you weren't pushy at all were you? Girls really don't like that, and if her self-esteem is as bad as she's making out then it could have made her feel really bad towards you and that'd be enough to make her break up. Things like these unfortunately you have to ask directly, because girls are twats and won't tell you what's wrong ever. The gheys. Porter you're a fecking legend. You deserve some pussy, talking of which didn't someone say they'd found you some t'other day?

I'm guessing you mean the removal tabs on the freewheel are hitting it when you pedal right? If so the only option really is to carefully grind these off.

Part of being a member and the right of being validated is having the ability to use the search function in order to find information without posting an uneeded and already extensivly discussed topic. If a new member or member (we don't just moan at you idiots) clearly lacks this ability then they should expect to be bitched at.

Well you ruined it before there didn't you! Just go to OTN and you can do it in virtually any thread and be agreed with Edit: and I thought the joke was average, but certainly not threadworthy

Haha knew I was being too clever for my own good, I've just realised my old XC frame (orange and black Univega oh yeeaaaaaah) is in the skip so I'll go see if I can nick my Dad's dail caliper and measure the BB diameter for you.

Where was the mandatory backflip!?

As a (very) recent joiner of "the club" I'm not sure wether to be embarassed about posting here :$ haha But I thought I'd put in my opinion. I was 17 5 months ago and I've been with my girlfriend over 7 months now. I had many oppurtunities where I could have had sex before, as young as 14, but stayed in the "everything except sex" sorta thing. I'm *very* happy that I chose to wait until now as it meant alot to both of us and is obviously the most intimate thing you can do as a couple. This is the longest relationship I've been in and by far the most happy/stable/loving and all that other soppy shite I've ever had. I think if I had done it in any of my other previous relationships I would have considerable regret about it, but I'm pretty sure we've chosen the right time. I think there's ALOT of pressure on people to lose their virginity as early as possible nowadays. Since year 9 there's always been stories flying around about other people having done it and so on and so forth. This starts off as a minority and generally stays that way through til year 11 and maybe even sixth form but it can seem as though everyone else has already done it and you're "behind". Society's f**ked, but I'm very happy with my decisions no matter what everyone else seems to be doing and I think that's how everyone should be thinking, not following the crowd and thinking they have to do it to fit in which in turn pressures even more people.

Well a headtube's gunna be 1 1/8" isn't it 1 1/8 = 28.575mm I think a bottom bracket shell is similar/the same but I'm too lazy to research that one...
