  1. they are just stanadard saracen hangers on the 2005's. any shop that sells saracen should have one.
  2. i use kool stops on a really harsh grind. i find it works really well. the pads also last forever!
  3. hey up lad. welcome to the forum. enjoy!
  4. hahahaha. sounds like a really good night. im tempted to try it.
  5. get an hs-33. i bet you wish you had never sold your old hs-33 to my brother. haha.
  6. thata a really neat looking bike. i think that i would change the stem though. i think you would find the bike would ride a lot nicer with a stem with a smaller rise.
  7. surely if you use blue electricians tape all of the dust will just stick to it and make it look filthy after a few days????
  8. hey. i just use red kool stops with a beast of a grind. they work really well and last for ages, even with the grind on my rim. they are cheap pads, so i say grind your rim and they'll work nicely and not wear down as quick as the koxx and zoo pads do. you could find yourselve saving some money
  9. www.trialsshop.co.uk get them there for around £13-14. good service and cheap postage on armourdillos.
  10. I'm 16 and have been riding for 2 years now. i can gap a car parking space now quite easily ( not sure how far that is) i can static gap up 5 blue pallets, although i do have a lot of angle on it so it is slightly more like a sidehop to back wheel. i can also pedal gap 7ft 5" sidehop 6 pallets. front hook 9 pallets. and theres a nice summary of my riding. haha
  11. yeah its called trialsworld. i had every issue but then all of a sudden i couldnt find it anywhere. the last issure that i managed ti get my hands on was the november issue. ( number 7 i think) does anyone know whether there are any issues available like December etc. thanks.
  12. a lad from my area has one. ive played on his bike a few times and its very nice mindeed on the back wheel. quite a long frame aswell. which i like because i am tall.
  13. trials bike games are only there for a rainy day. thats all. i think there good fun but i would like it if there were some better courses.
  14. i would go for blue. it would go nicely with a blue chris king aswell.
  15. i agree. they are really nice looking bikes and are supposed to ride really well.
  16. use a bench vice. thats what ive always done. its really easy and it goesa in nice and straight. i think its the easiest way by far. cant go wrong.
  17. thats exactly what i thought. i love the zonas.
  18. true. ive seen a hell of a lot worse though. for instance look at the topic about getting a lunch break. haha. theres quite a bit there as the topic starter.
  19. i was only joking john. your hope works well now. would you not even sawp it for a magura julie? haha. wait till you see how nice mine is john. its better than andrews. im amazed.
  20. yeah my mate has the pair and loves the front but cant get the rear one to work too well. but yeah mine locks like, if not better,than a magura. i really cant believe it. i wasnt expecting it to be very good but it nearly threw me over the bars. it feels nicer than my mates hope trials which is very tempramental and feels different every day. i am really impressed with it and excellent service from bikedock....like it always is.
  21. 2 days ago i got my magura julie front disk brake from bikedock and i would just like to say they are the most under-rated disk brake out there. it bites amazingly and is so easy to put on and i didnt need to set it up at all. just bolted it on. you cant really complain especially for £64.99.( a bit cheaper than a hope trials). thats all i have to say really. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED (good christmas present!)
  22. yeah i agree. the bases are very nice bikes. easy to throw about etc. i also agree that koxx are overated. good point
  23. yeah it would make it stiffer. 22/18 should be quite nice. thats what my brother uses and it feels quite nice. get on to the shop you bought the eno off and get them to check it out for warranty etc. good luck
  24. i dont think your idea about running a front echo as a rear isnt too bad an idea. i'm not sure how strong it would be because i dont have one myself but im sure someone who has an echo rim would be happy to tell you how strong they are. :P
