    no problem with the psylo fork so far and i own it for 2 years now.

    as you know its not my main ride because i like trials riding more.

  2. mmm.... around 10 trialsters i think. its hard to progres. people dont know what is trials. and the ones who do know, think it's too demanding for them to even try.

    there are more xc, fr, trails and even bmx riders then trials riders.

    also, a trials specific bike (to build from scratch) is not as cheep as the same urban/street machine of the same level, because of the expensive frame and parts (even the more cheep parts are more expensive then a complite mid leveled bike). riders want a bike that can handle anything and with a seat (Y) .

  3. cool, and you can ride with me and my friends! i know all the best places around tel aviv. (Y)

    (IDAN PELED is my friend who takes those nice pictures most of the time. as you see he knows the job! )

  4. trials in israel is tough... getting all the parts and all, but owning a mini is touger!

    yes that nice car is mine! its 77 mini 1300 cc 10" mini-lite alloy rims, k&n air filter.

    cheers mate (Y)

  5. i did it today for my first time, but without pedaling, just riding towords a wall, and touch my front wheel and then pull. my best hop to a wall and to my rear wheel is 1 meter with out that tuoch up thing. you need less power with this thing.

    few things i'v got to know:

    1.do i need more psi in my front tyre?in order to not pinch flat it...

    2.do i need to come slower? faster?

    3.how high can i go?

    4.is this thing realy work or just ends my forks life faster? did it realy lifted my front wheel higher or what? >_<

  6. use a dt revolution db spokes. 2m"m-1.6" to 2m"m. its light and strong . dont make radial lacing if its a king hub. it voids the warranty. if you twist to inside of the valve , the rim will be stronger. but not dramaticly. good luck mate.

  7. i'v ordered the seat from bike dock. its an echo trimmed mini seat. you can take a planet-x mini seat, take the cover out jently, rip the foam out, grined the seat to a little plastic seat like mine & cover it again with any cover u like. i had a planet x seat and grinded it today in my shop, (i'm a bike mechanic) and it came out exaactly like the echo seat. now i have to think how to cover it! pictures soon... :)
