  1. Basically there a bit strange when on two wheels cos you lean so far forward, kinda feels as if your going to fall over the bars at first. But get them on the back wheel and there real sweet. The balence point is spot on with the zoo pitbull. And for gapping the have a really nice flick out which makes it feel easier or needs less effort because you have more leverage. H
  2. Hey man, Welcome to TF!! You should put up a bit about your self, hobbies etc? Mean people get to know you better and faster!! H
  3. When you saved it, Did you save it as a project file or as a movie file? This could be the difference!! If you saved it as a movie file then when you copy it to another computer you should be able to play the video in windows media player, etc. If you saved it as a project file, it doesnt saved the actual video clips just an index of where each clip goes in the video. H
  4. Bit random but funny!! Why were you looking for that in the first place, haha? :sick:
  5. I think it just part of trials riding. I get some times, usually when riding everyday of a long days ride when im really trying hard. But most of it is because of the position of riding that trials puts on your back, cos bmxers get the same problem cos the way you are sqaushed up on the bike. With a normal bike sitting down takes the strain off your back. If it gets bad just take a day or two off(Or pain killers, its the way forward!!!!), but seriously, if it gets bad ask the doc, when I did he said just rest cos if you keep riding when its bad, you could really do your back in for later in life!! I know it sounds a bit Pansy like, but I intend on using my back later in life, do you?? H :sick:
  6. Hey all, Me and the uni trials guys are doing our first ride of the year on sunday. Nothing big but if any of want to come that would be cool. 11.30/12 at the guildhall square!! Cheers, H
  7. If it's that type of link or the other split llink, either way i'd say don't use it because there weaker. You want the strongest possible because if it goes and most chains do at some point because trials puts so much tension and strain on them, it's gonna hurt. Just imagine a 4 ft or higher dropp off, SNAP :rolleyes: Face plant drop off!! H
  8. It's really nice to ride, I don't have one myself but one of my mates does. Had a play around on it about a week ago and thought it was really nice. H
  9. Yeah btu the worst bit is that split second when "Oh F**K" goes through your mind, you know its gone wrong and its gonna hurt, but theres nothing you can do other than brace for impact!!! :rolleyes: H
  10. Travis Perkins is a good one, but make sure you use there industrial site(warehouse) not there commercial store(Shop). I got a huge lump, free!! H :rolleyes:
  11. Hey, Mainly Punk, rock, metal. Pretty much anything under the "drive through records" music label. Have a look, just add dot com. H
  12. Hey man, Your post is not totally clear in what you mean, stick with what the frame or cranks? If your looking at getting good cranks for trrials, I would say Middleburn RS7's. They look beautiful there solid. Yeah I know there a bit much if your skint. But cheap cranks may lasta year but cos 50 quid, middleburns are a 100 quid ish but last for years, mine are 5 years old now and still solid. H
  13. The Pentax S50. Its a 5 mega pixel, does videos and photos. Its got loadsa clever functions such as special colour filters which make some cool shots and effects and macro features too, I got mine on offer for 170, Its really small etc. Have a look. H
  14. Hey man, They do look pretty sweet, was looking at getting a set myself. The silver ones prob. Im not sure how good they are but I'll tallk to my mate James who works and rides for them in Poole. I'll see what I can find out. H
  15. Or just that you don't know what your doing? Either way, funny!! :P
  16. Hey, Had a few people asking about places to ride is there a trials club etc. The university has a MTB club, within that there is a trials crew. Anyone interested in mountain biking/trials should come to the Freshers Fair on the wed/thur (5th/6th) of October. It's held behind the student's union in some big tents. Any questions etc, contact me, address below. H
  17. Thats a load of rubbish, You can get it from travis perkins but you neeed to go to there industrial not commercial store, cos thats were I got mine. I just asked for roofing tar and they knocked off a block about the size of 2 tennis balls and let me have it for free. It is made from oil, I don't know the exact process etc, but its refined oil to make it a solid form. But look up oil and tar, see what you find. H
  18. Hey Man, I have middleburns. My bolts don't loose very often, you can tell usually because as you pedal you will here a little squek each time the cranks go round. When it does happen I tighten the bolts as hard as I can with a park tool allen key which is fairly long. They are about 3-4 years old and not split yet. When you do them up, make em tight, ie solid power. But dont jerk the allen key or hit it with a hammer cos the sudden pressure will snap the bolt. Its a bit of common sense, do em up tight but don't go for a strong man contest, cos if there not quite tight enough then you can always do them again, but if you snap the bolt the you stuffed. You can get a torque wrech otherwise which measures how tight the bolt is and set it to the recomended level by middleburn, but there not the cheapest tools. H
  19. Hey guys, Yeah we have a mountain bike club at the university. I was organising the trials stuff last year, I will be organising the stand at the freshers fair which is on the wednesday and thursday of the first week back. It's held on the grass behind the students union. Any questions about the club/riding just msn me. It's all fairly chilled, Laters H
  20. Unlucky man. It's weird how several thing go at once like that!! Yeah, i snapped the adjuster on my rear mech on tuesday. Slipped off a post and snapped the screw bit that goes into the mech, a bit pissed cos mech is only 2 weeks old. But got an old adjuster so not the end of the world. H
  21. Ryan Leech - Trials Van Homan - Bmx Matt Hoffman - Bmx, anyone who rides a 20 ft vert ramp brakeless and goes up between the rafters only a foot from the roof deserves respect. Colin Mc Rae - WRC Marco Martin - WRC Steve Peat - DH Laird Hamilton - Big Wave Surfer, Hawiai H
