  1. ohhh bugger,, well my fault entirly for leaving it in wales nearly a year ago.. lol erm its a black ALTURA jacket, (XC style) with lots of air vents and white reflective lines on it oh and it has a rip on one pocket where i got tangled in an automatic door at college. iolo.
  2. wayne i kno youve got alot to sort,, but do you know where my coat is.. because im real cold these days.! i think it was put in your van at the man made comp in bournmouth.. ????? thanks mate! iolo. Brrrrrrrr.
  3. my MK2 iolo custom frame was.. 1070mm wheelbase 380mm back end 75mm BB rise 72 deg head angle and that was well good.. good for side hops, bunny hops,gaps, ect... taps were a little harder to get bang on, but when you did u flew up ! i say thay are all good, can be ridden very streety and on natural too.
  4. 1080mm wheelbase 380mm back end 15mm BB rise 72 degree head angle sounds pretty perfect for you. now frames that are closest to that.. erm koxx kenney belay koxx levelboss 2005 long echo control cant think of any more.. hope it helps a bit. shud help u know what your after anyhoo iolo.
  5. ye was fun riding with u in scottish land.. done oh about ali C or Waddy. we will see.
  6. this sounds good, i will try and come.. i cud pik up DUCK-ooo on the way mayB not sure will work it out nearer the time am i allowed to come, cos my mum is welsh ? hahahahahahaa and i get really curly welsh hair, and my name is aran iolo burgoyne cook. which sounds welsh. or maybe just sounds stupid, so you shud pitty me , hahaha iolo.
  7. try side hopping with without a finger on your front brake, it makes you lift more and land level but it kills mech hangers EDIT : heres my best go...(with both brakes) its not massive but im in the right place.. i still land slightly front wheel first though arrrgh who cares its all fun and good also anyone else experience hip clicking with this move sometimes ??? oww iolo.
  8. same as Ali C here about 80% natural riding. i LOVE it any rock any weather, been riding both days this weekend with rain and a little snow,, ITS WAS ACE!! and as for videos,, search for 'IOLO au natural' on sites,vids pics. you may find that more amusing, than most.. it a good laff iolo
  9. come on peepl.. this is going to be excellent !!
  10. u would be surprised at how high you can go with low speed, like 1meter run up.. as long as you hit low,, hitting the front wheel lower means that you a more likly to go over the bars, this is good because it hardly ever causes you to go over the bars it just means you weight is more central on the bike when your up the wall. so you get up rather than landing on it then falling backward,that usually means your not hitting low enough.. but having said that,, if i wanna go big, i go pretty fast and start pedaling with my front foot. 1 revolution and up u go kinda thing.. iolo.
  11. i know this is old,, but if you could put your down it wud be great,, thanks for all the help so far! iolo.
  12. IM DEFF THERE!! im well anoyed i missed the last one cos i was in spain.. will b ace,, i shud be able to help with sections too.. also Wayne have you got my coat ??? because im cold. looking forward to it,,! iolo.

    ok im really hoping to go this year, sounds reaaaallllyyyy good. me + usuall suspects, Ali C and Waddy i havnt askd them yet though.. canny wait. i need ££ though.! will there be stands there ? u kno like company sales malarky ? im prety sure its 1 year liscence,, and u gotta have insurance and mot documents with you, and a first aid kit, and a warning triangle iolo
  14. WOOOO yess ali its the best way,, iv changed mine to run on 1 cog now and it takes EVEN MORE beating!!!
  15. im sorry pete, i really did crack up when i realised that STEAL wasnt a mistake. hee hee hee. also, if u can hang on till beggining of Feb, iv heard a new company is going to make custom geo frames at great prices, sounds like they will be what YOU want! watch this space,,,, or prehaps another 1 iolo.
  16. thank you all soooo much,, very helpful.. keep em coming people.. iolo.
  17. thanks everyone keep em coming,, and yes i agree on the seat positioning, as long as its not near your stem,, lol thanks again iolo.
  18. it would be greatly appretiated if people could post what they think there most ideal frame geometry is. this will probably be based on bike you have owned and others bikes u have ridden. wheelbase? rear end? BB height? head angle? for example i think mine would be about.... WB - 1080 mm RE - 380 mm BB - +10 mm HA - 71 deg i woudl like 26" 24" and 20" please 24" may want to include seat angle or top tube length, if you like running a saddle. thanks alot,!!! and remeber the frame doesnt have to exsist. iolo.
  19. nice pics, nice riding excellent !

    this noise describes how i feel.. naarggggbleebaaaarrr-tupperwear- grooogh noooo what else can i say! iolo.
  21. dont forget you could save that by using a stone!! or prehaps the crayons free from pizza hut !!! or you could get a different mech ! sorry
  22. robbie peacock !! and im afraid i find it really hard not to mention the other two in my lean mean yorkshire trials team! sam waddington (wad) Ali C and i am also biased with this one,team mate on 3 teams and friend, but i gotta say it... waynio is certainly going upward.
  23. thanks v much,, and yes that tyre is even worse in real life.. i hav been using it just under 6 months now, riding almost everyday! it is now COMPLETLY slick in the centre,all the thread has come off the sidewalls, and one side has to edge nobbles and the other side they are all cracked.. having said that, it fits on my rim, and you can put an inner tube inside it, so it does the job fine really. glad u like the pics, sorry for the lack of wheels swaps people. lololol im pleased with my sidehops though, and my new secondhand forks,,( thanks alot chris !!! ) iolo
  24. sounds like your chain line.. or mech/tensioner alignment. to me iolo.
