Trials Dave

good stuff lads. i'll hassle a few people and narrow the venue down to a few locations. it will probably be a fun trial but we could start a series if theres a good turn out

looking good

i have been playing with the idea of setting up a small competition in the north east for a while now and i was just wondering if there would be any interest? i am in the middle of hassling the council so i will let you know what they say in the near future hopefully. name a place and i will try and get my hands on it for a day! i know that us northern lads are sick of having nothing up here! there are some great places i have seen where i ride moto trials competitions and i think i could easily use one of these places. if theres enough interest then i will continue trying to set something up. what do you say? cheers Dave

yeah i was eying that up like

you should be fine in england but ive heard the french drivers (especially in built up areas) get pretty crazy. hope you pass your test then good luck. i say go for it. its an experience

all propa looking tenneager rooms so far haha. endohoppers is sooooo tidy though. throw something on the floor. lmao pimping room though and i'l say yes you do like blue i will post mine up later. lol Dave

just an opinion. i think black or red cranks would look 10 times better with that bike

these sound like they are going to be really good. cant wait for some reviews on the forums soon. then the mbuk review in about 3 month. lmao

does anyone know a shop which stocks them. ive looked all over but cant find them anywhere!!!

they would look good on a bike with other components green. not when everything else is black and red.

cool pics there mate. not trying to be an arse or anything but what is with james porter's cranks!!! the whole bike is smart apart from the cranks.

that was an alright video. i spotted a few tunnicliffe lines in there aswell the ending could have been edited slightly better in my opinion though! nice one Dave

great video. i like the big gap to front wheel. (the first move on the video which you get later)

dpends on your rim really mate. i run 20 psi in my echo 2006 rim if that helps. on my maviv rims i was running 35-40 just because it rims out all the time

great bikes to get you going. ive seen people buy these and improve rapidly!

lmao!!! gap to rim. i heard it hit the wall. lol stefans didnt look to bad but it still managed to come off the rim. never happened to me before and i used to run mavic d521's!!! folded all the time but never off the rim.

hahaha. yeah i had a little chuckle to myself

very good video. enjoyed it immensley. lol

yeah i think they are pushing their luck a bit with that one.

100% agree.

wow...when i had my 04 before it snapped i thought it would be impossible to get one in. i would go for a ronnie, with the echo 2 bolt booster. take a look on tartybikes

haha. i'll try to use that word less often and i did mean over-charge. yeah they need to cover costs like a world-wide team i suppose! companies do offer 'budget bikes' but i think people would rather buy the copy to have the better geometry etc than the bottom of the range bike which from my experience fall to bits after a few month.

a great laugh!!! unlucky to the stars of the video though.

zoo video 20...the boyo. tunnicliffe goes crazy in it. love the soundtrack aswell

yeah paul and f-stop junkie (lol) i do think that the teams like koxx have to rape us on the price as they are creating a living for their team riders. they must charge more money so that they can pay their riders. i also agree that the coustellier brand took a risk releasing their bike which has been mirrored sooo much. i like it how companys take an existing frame and tweak it to make it better depending on what the customers think it needs. this is how the sport progresses and bikes become easier to ride etc which is what the sport needs to bring in new riders. if the bike is cheap and really nice to ride then hopefully new riders will develop their skills more quickly and become hooked into the sport which will therefore bring more money into trials and the companies in gerneral. people will always need new levers, pedals etc which usually the copy comapanys do not offer currently, so the big companies get the business for that which again evens out the profits gained by the big and little companys. i am really starting to change my mind about the whole copys etc, as you have shown me why it is done, how it is done and generally shown me why it is really quite a good thing. as i have said earlier i do happen to have a zona in my garage so you may even call me a bit of a hypocrit. while im on though...... is anyone starting to get slightly tired of the whole pitbull frame design? im not particualarly sick of it but it is becoming dated and maybe even over-rated even though it is well proven and strong. cheers for all of your opinions which you have obviously spent a lot of your time on. thanks Dave
