maxxis high roller dual ply in 42a or 40a 2.5 but reversed so the sharp edges are driving (facing forward),that eould be my choice for the rear and for the front i would have a maxxis minion rear 2.5 but reversed. i ride natty and thats my ultimate choice.if weight is an issue get a tryall on the front. craig

I'd like to think there's a mutual understanding amongst riders. If someone came up to me while i was riding and started chatting i would greet them with open arms. craig

i think that everyone has got some/all valid points so lets try and keep this one clean and not turn it nasty. As you all know the company that used to run the fantastic shows did not host this one at all and had no part in it which is disappointing. Mbuk has run show after show and it has been a success BUT i'm sure the first ever bikeshow that they ran was not the entertaining beast it turned out. at the same time the company who ran this one has had no expierience in running a show and trials riding least of all. To me this is more of a "wait and see" situation. Dave@tarty summed it up from a more mature persons perspective about financial risk. Boring though this maybe, trust me from a person who is deep in the business plays more of a part in slowly building the foundations of a great show that may blossom into a great event than putting every penny into the event and losing thousands of pounds. i myself know that the company i work for were not going to go as the risk of the cost of the stand we were going to bring probably wasnt going to pull the crowds enough as the event was not going to be the same as it has been. Give everyone who organised it and rode there a break.things can only get better and at the same time i hope that in the near future the bikeshow of past gets re-incarnated and the greats ride again. the bikeshow should be about the past, present and future. having the latest riders there is great but we cant forget where our sport has came from. sorry if this raises an argument but it is my view and opinion. Once again a big well done to everyone who persevered with show. i know tarty were doing fantastic. big shout out to all the chaps i bumped into who i've missed too. craig sorry if some of this post doesnt make sense by the way.

beast on natty and a beast on street...sexy mofo too. JOE!WHAT CANT YOU DO!?!lol really though...awesome vid again.cant wait for the next vid. craig

im gonna make you my bitch tomorrow joe.....i sniff you out lol craig

meeeeee,not for very long though but im there thats for sure. craig

too old for comps in my opinion Joe. boon hit the nail on the head by using "fiasco" when words used should be fun. i am not sayin that comps are not fun and i have had a right laugh at a YMSA but at the back of my mind there is always the past events and i just lose interest. the people who can still compete and ignore the events i have the upmost respect for but for me this side of things is not so rosy. craig

here we go..man i'm glad i made my mind up to stop competing.puts me off all this shiz.nothings clear anymore and for some reason the fun of comp riding has faded.i am not saying this is for everyone but me thats for sure.whoever competes in whatever event,the best of luck to them all involved in what happened or not. craig

hey everyone,jus boshed a poop lil vid together of riding since i changed to mod.its done in movie maker so dont expect an amazing vid like joey b's or any other beast editor. its all natty too so sorry for that. one quick shout out to all the bashers at tarty for influencing me to go mod (adams mod feels like a beast) and helping me out as usual. http://tv.isg.si/site/filebrowser/trialsalot > funforme the song is a bit mellow and its called fun for me by moloko. comments more than welcome geordie (aka craig)

one of the first things i done was change the rotors to the normal trial ones like matt said.As the holes are smaller you still get ooooodles of power but with a firmer feel to the lever.go out and buy some lol craig
