That was actually better than i thought it was going to be. Really reminded me of when i first started riding too. How nice it was, back in the days where nobody would be doing anything and massive rides could be arranged within half an hour or so on a saturday/sunday morning, then a peaceful pallet session while all the factories are closed for the weekend. Good times.

Pretty much, you can get to 8 seconds by staying in the bottom right corner. Used to place this A LOT during I.T. in my a-level years

I didn't make the video to prove anything, its just we've had loads of emails asking if theres any footage of the pads being used and up until now, there hasn't been. As soon as i got a firewire card for my pc we went out for 10 minutes or so to get some footage of me using them. Now people can see that we have more than just pictures of material and that they hold all of my 16 stones of bodyweight for normal riding. I wasn't going out to try and beat personal bests, wasn't pushing myself a great amount at all and the only thing on my mind was getting some footage on the tiny walls. As for hold, you want more stuff like this?

Oh yeah!

You have recieved a new feedback. Below are details concerning the new feedback. Type: Good Rating SummaryExcellent chap, polite to talk to via pm's and the sent the postal order straight away, exactly as he said he would. Thanks. Given By: Krisboats You were the: Buyer Date: 1204464182

Ha ha, yeah i know. I suckorz at riding , now you can see why i'm not in the riders section Just got the camera working again though and went out for 10 minutes down the end of the road to get at least some footage viewable, even if the riding level is low as an arctic blizzard.

As a general rule of thumb i never use split links, i always fit the chain together properly. I don't really see the need for a split link, with a mountain bike its fair enough, you'll probably have 2 mechs to geth the chain round and so a split link is faster, but on a trials bike i wouldn't be able to trust one properly.

Looks amazing, i really like it. It just looks fun to ride, thats the first word that pops into my head when i see it. The stem and forks look wicked and keep the colours on the bike nicely balanced, i think it'd look so much duller with black stem and forks. The all black sidwalls on the rear rim looks wicked too, very dinstinguished. I hear neco reds are pretty good on smooth rims, and are very cheap too

They ride so nice its unreal. Feel very light but at the same time amazingly stiff. Makes my t-rex feel flexy and they're practically solid metal Having a go on patts is what swayed bigman into getting one. Hope he enjoys it, looks the shit!

I personally reckon that drop TRA did a few weeks back in his vide and that still was bigger.

Yeah, the best thing is it labels it as a type of channel. So browsing through the music channels you could have a load of your sets hosted for musicly minded people to peruse. Same for the grinding video, the idea was to have a bike maintenance channel with loads of videos on how to fix things. Shame time seems to be always against me... and an amazing ability to sleep far too much

Technically its in nottinghamshire.

Isn't there usually a little arrow showing the direction to face it in whilst fitting it?

Chit chat thread is officially faster than skynews, your behind us lot

Ha ha, i actually LOL'd Anyways kirk > picard

And yet you show no picard

P-Diddyvon slept straight through the damn thing. Everyone else was up watching Shaun of the dead. My housemate thought i'd farted for an instant, then we thought something had fallen down upstairs, so as the walls were moving backwards and forwards we went upstairs to have a brief check. Nothing had fallen over so we gingerly opened the door to our dodgy boiler thinking it might have blown up, alas no.. we're still stuck with dodgy heating. Sticking our head out the window and seeing the kebab shop owners walking out the shop they soon established that it "were a mo'f**kin earfquake mate!" Then we played guitar hero.... TRUE STORY! To all the other images of dogs and cats and mystic rape....

Got it in loughborough, was pretty funny.

I've always called them switches or a wheel-switch. I'd call the other move wheelswap as its swapping from one wheel to another fluidly, rather than switching from one to the other. Though i guess the name wheelswap or wheelswitch could be applied to either manouvers. Static wheelswap and rolling wheelswap would be more accurate for the two different moves. I've always found leaning over the bars and physically trying to flick the bars/front end forwards whilst performing the swap always helps fluidity and ease. Also keeping the back brake off helps the back wheel to roll into place rather than stopping it as soon as it hits the floor.

Oh dear, not again

Rear tensioner, its a beast. Theres a whole homemade tensioners thread in trials chat so have a browse through that if your interested in ideas for stuff you can do easily. Brake pads too, i guess they count as homemade.

I remember someone telling me about them a while back. They said they're comparable to the dmr revolver cassette hubs in terms of strength for trials. Sure it might be cheap, but its not really worth the hassle of having to buy new spokes/rebuild when it dies.
