  2. Are Halfords Actually Retards

    in Beginners Trials Chat

    Posted

    Ok. i have had to take my bike to halfords and have my cables cut down, front wheel trued (stupid car), and front disk reblead.And they took my rear maggie apart for some reason. Anyways i got a phone call today saying i need a new maggie cus i have water in mine and if i want it fixed the ywill have to strip it clean it dry it with special stuff. and i should always use maggie fluid. i found thi sso funny because there are so many people who use water, and i find it better. Ow plus they said my front brake was fine evan though it leaked over the floor lol.

    lmao........my mate had trouble with his breaks ...he took it to this bike shop to be bled...he dent no how to do it properly.

  3. Bad Wrist

    in Beginners Trials Chat

    Posted

    Hey guys, i'm not sure if this deserves it's onw topic, but noone seems to read the small questions sticky topic, i think we've all become used to it being there and don't pay much notice to it. it's a good idea though!

    AnywayI've been pissing about on my bike in my back garden on some crates quite a lot latley, and just recently my wrist, and lower thumb have started to be really painful, i've tried putting that deep heat cream on it but it doesn't seem to make much difference (other than feel really uncomfortable) does anyone else have this problem? do you think wrist supports would be any good, i've never really considered them cos i figured they'd probably limit your movement.

    before anyone says no it's not due to wanking!

    thanks for any help guys Mike!!!

    (if this doesn't deserve it's own topic then please close it or delete it, cheer's guys)

    the pain dut be your bars, your lever positioning etc. adjust your levers to see if its that.

  4. Back Brake

    in Beginners Trials Chat

    what makes the perfect back brake weather you grind your rims.... use certain pads.... or even put stuff on your rim :ermm:

    it depends on your weight and how good you are, because when i just started i use to think my hs33's was amazing because all i could do was back hop and endo. but then when i got better i was introduced to tar.which i can send u loads if u want because i have 6 morrisons bags full''literally''lol. but then when i got even better and m brakes couldn't hold me aswell as they did before i got a grind.remeber though if you get a grind e.g. don't get a soft grind and then run something like cool stops.lol what you would be good with is the koxx blocks and plazmatic pads work amazing on a harsh grind and zoo pads, well they work good on tar. hope i help. at the moment i have a slightly harsh grind on koxx blocks. hope i help

    cheers

  6. Snapped My T-pro

    in Beginners Trials Chat

    Posted

    Inevitably i have cracked my T-Pro at the headtube where they all go.

    I did this while bunnyhop gapping a 7 ft gap on pallets

    I am going to have to get a new frame. i was wondering what frame to get, i prefer shorter mods with a quite low bb rise as i quite like to bunny hop and i have found this a challenge to do on longer mod'swith a higher bb rise.

    i know there is not much choice of shorter mods around in the ever incereasing world of long bikes.

    i do not plan to get a crash replacment onza t-pro as they are just not strong enough frames.

    yeah pyhons are strong but don't get because there good and strong.get something which feels good and if you like the python thats when you decide to purchase one (Y)

  7. Inner Tubes

    in Beginners Trials Chat

    Posted · Edited by sembo_trials

    i keep getting flat tyres and i was just wondering if self healing inner tubes are any good? :S

    hi there, you are right in making a topic on this because everyone knows innertubes need to be good and strong, so therefore so therefore i thick you should purchase a continental innertube which are superb. the link below is not the one i have but this one is strong aswell. if u contact me on mesanger i will try find the one i have because mine is 'snake bite proof'

    koxx bikes are good quality, but their prices are over exagerated, i dont see what the problem is with getting a Zoo! or an echo their cheap as chips and just as good, with koxx your paying for a name.

    you pay for the name when you buy a monty.....hehe
