  1. Seen this in person.....its bright alright!
  2. Awesome video that! Joe's a brute now and some of the riding from Ali is tech as is all of the other stuff. Editing is spot on. Marks edits always seem pretty uplifting....dunno if its music choice or what but cracking job!
  3. Wow...I left this forum because of all the one sided views of riding and personality massacre inflicted on each other. Trials riding by definition is to negotiate obstacles on a bike isn't it? I've ridden for 10+ years and if trials was constantly tgs or comp style riding it would be crap. I personally enjoy the different angles each individual brings to the sport. Mark comes from a bmx backround so brings a bmx twist with traditional trials moves ie wodges. Thats enjoyable to watch. Ali is pretty talented and I've never met anyone who can see some of the lines he does. I've seen this in person. Ali brings insight into trials. These are two examples of many things that help our sport grow. Think of Dan Macs video, unbelievable coverage for the sport because it diversifys a singular sport into sub categories. This is far more attractive to to people who don't know trials and may want to try it. There's clearly another rift on the forum again. It's a shame. I used to ride alone more than anything because of opinions and how generic the sport became. I ride natural...I do that best and there's nothing better than coming home and watching something that pushed the boundaries a bit. It doesnt matter how. We all started trials riding in the same way,hanging around with mates. You ride what you want and how you want. I used to ride with a pretty good bmxer growing up but we still had respect for each others riding. Maybe I'm just a dinosaur and times have changed. Anyways thats my 2 pence. Good video,enjoyed it. Keep em coming imo.
  4. Nice one Adam,You should post up some pics of the windowless Tartybikes from back in the day. The expansion over the years has been phenomenal! Well done to everyone there. Craig

  8. You boys are gonna be sooooooore when you're finished! Craig
  9. Diaz is a beast!remember seeing him at Koxx days. Plenty of bunnyhops in there which I thought spoiled it but plenty of tech stuff too.
  10. So, Just fitted an sd7 and yellow heatsink and I'm struggling with setting them up. I'm running neon adapters on some echo urbans with backward mounts and a koxx single wall drilled rim. Basically I cant get the pads to sit square using the conical washers even when swapped round to use the differing sizes.Even when I remove all washers they wont square up. Is it a possibility my rim is too wide or spacings somehow wrong. Ali...I'd love your help on this one fella! Suggestions?
  11. Dont quit...thats an achievement.
  12. Would different sets of forks give different amounts of flex?ie when the brake is applied really hard. Lets say urbans vs echo lites. What are the best ways of stiffening up the brake without piling more weight on with a booster. The set up I have currently is because lever,onza clear pads and xt parallel push cantis. Cheers
  13. Below is a link to the pics of ride too.sorry its a link .Photos start on page 6. http://m756.photobucket.com/albums/trialsalot/random%20pics/?o=16&pbauth=1_uLEBonVPfaLdh1h3YMYz2d7qcs%2BtxT%2Fbd5U8etHSRrVOBYFDlNs1mQAuNTAo1%2B%2BheZrLioYZg959yDe8C7B7fV4WQEj%2FR3erKO6b5TzWRwFutRtB%2B9qJcK%2FJQVFl8JNVNb6G05t%2F9Uc2bXPFl%2F8e6dx65SjCYUeZ6QJ3BRl%2BI4w%3D Craig

  16. Really liked that Will.I loved riding there ages ago.Spot on place, spot on riding. Craig
  17. I've got that actual brake now Will. Exactly as adam says really.Its a 180 on a mod but I think its not as good as a hope.I went back to a dirty screechy brake on the front. Craig
  18. Good vid but the whole tight wearing thing is just completely gay.
  19. Sorry if this is a repost but just found this hellish vid.I've personally never seen it before but definately an animal and that vids old lol. Anyways enjoy!
  20. Im 29m this year and ride mod....I dont particularly care how I look.Saying that I ride ALOT of natural in hidden away places much of the time by myself so its not really a factor looking gay. Ride whatever...mods,24's or stock.Just enjoy it.
