  1. I was wondering if anybody could help me fix my disc brake. i`ve had it for about a month now and just recently it has started to rub. I think that it could be the pad`s sticking or that the rotor is bent im not sure. Does anybody have any sugestions on what the problem might be. :blink: thanks tomo
  2. I found that if you are falling to one side lets say to your left. Try and compensate it by delibritley falling to your right. Do this a few times untill you can fall to whatever side you want then give it another go and put all your effort into keeping it central. I know it might sound like a funny way to learn but it helps :turned:
  3. does anbody know what is going on with this dvd, I mean its been in the making for about two years now and still nothing has come of it. Iv noticed the site is still up and running ( street trials.co.uk) but it doesn`t look like anything is being done about putting the dvd into production. does any body else have any info about what is going on with this dvd and site? <_<
  4. I ride a koxx levelboss with the new red stickers, it`s not the lightest bike but its strong as hell <_<
  5. Mine would have to be when i first started trials. I was trying to drop off six pallets, but the thing was i was not very confident at drops at that time i was realy trying to get them nailed and so i was about to do it when a voice in my hed said ,( hold on a sec you wont make this) and at that time i was at the ege of the drop so i just sort of nose dived of the ege and my shin had a nice little collision with my vp pedal and it riped all the skin off on the front of my shin so all i could see was a nice long bit of white bone :( plus i had to then drag my bike all the way back round the front of homebase just to get noticed. but since that day i have never bottled a drop off so in a way it helped me a little bit :D
  6. I play football, badminton and play a bit of cricket when i can, oh yeah i also go to that stupid thing called college :( im doing a electrical installation cours wich is not all that bad i suppose,I also ride my bike when i can :D
  7. I would have to say Chris Akrigg, i like the way he rides and the lines he picks out that nobody else can see plus he can ride it all street, natrual and anything eles you could throw at him. what a legend (Y)
  8. I run a onza carbon brake booster on my koxx levelboss, its the best one iv had. Its a real nice bit of kit light, strong and looks cool i would go for it mate B) :-
  9. i had the same problem mate so i put a light film of oil or grease on the free hub body (i cant remember wich was best )it helped loads but the best thing to do is get a steel freehub body and make sure the cassete is on correctly and tight >_<
  10. I just snaped my bb and it would be realy helpful if some body could recommend a light but strong bb the price doesn`t matter and it would have to be a (isis, 68- 118mm) length and size. thanks tom :turned:
  11. Iv just orderd a pair of Ribo trials shoes and just wonderd weather meny people use them and are they any good. It would be cool to know what people use the most and think are the best shoes on the market at the moment. :ermm:
  12. Yeah i know what you mean mate, im starting to think that myself. Dont get me wrong i still think they are amazing videos and the riders are still awsome, some of the stuff they can do is unbelievable. All im tying to get at here is that i understand where you are comingfrom it does get a bit repetative but on the other hand so can any sport if you watch lot of it. :ermm:
  13. I realy like the try-all transparent grips they are what do it for me (WICKED) (N)
  14. Im the same i hate using gears on my bike, in my opinion you should not have to have gears if you dont want to ride with them. I mean it is not that big of a deal if you havent got them and a lot more people would enter comps.
  15. iv got a good one for all the fat people out there ( you eat to live not live to eat ) its all good fun :turned:
  16. yeah iv put the pawls and springs in wright. i will try the oil thanks mate (Y)
  17. Hi there iv had my rear hope hub for about a year now and i thought i would re grease the rachet system, so i poped it open and removed the pawls and put some grease in the rachet. but now every time put some strain on the pedals (when riding up a hill) it makes a loud click like its sliped i dont know what iv done wrong can some one please help me :sleeping:
  18. Thats a well nice bike mate, hope it ride as ggod as it looks. sweet :sleeping:
  19. Iv must have about 60 trials vids. and must of watch each if them about 50 times each. lol But its all good :sleeping:
  20. Realy nice bike mate looks sweet. What disc are you running? (N)
  21. I would have to say zoo vid 15 is one of the best, its just the way the music flows with the video wich makes it so good to watch. I would also recomend 16, 14, and 20 they are amazing as well. But be sure to watch as many as you can as they are all pretty good :bunny:

    Im realy sorry that i cant help more mate. The only thing i think i know is the artist. I think its Gwen Stefani hope that helps :bunny:
  23. Hi there if i was you i would go for the onza carbon. I have had one for about a year now and its still realy strong and stiff, pluse its not the heavyest one on the market. So all in all i think its a realy good buy and well worth the money :sick:
  24. hi there i've got a hope rear hub and i want to regrease the rachet system. Can anybody sugest a good quality grease that i could use to do this. I have got some cheap grease from halfords callled (lithium grease), but im not sure wether i can use it on the rachet system. any help would be good. cheers tom
