  4. 16:12 is a lot lot lot lot (etc) nicer dude. Looks goddam tidy!
  5. If your sending that amount of money on a bike its important you tailor the set-up to suit how you ride, but im guessing you don't know how that is yet, so you will just get the generic bike which is ok, but you will spend a lot of time and waste a lot of money trying to workout how to make your bike "how you like it" or "uber light"..................................................... welcome to trials.

  9. I don't think how good you are at riding effects your influence on trials to some degree. For me the great riders are the ones that organise good rides and are fun to be around - in the way that I think too many big riders are far too exclusive with their riding and generally only ride with the "in" people not offering everyone a chance to go and meet them, see them ride and be influenced by them. Like the way people would have "secret" riding locations and the like - I always thought was just utter bullshit, if I find anywhere good to ride then I'm going to let everyone know and try to get people there!
  10. Don't bother tapping, and faster in the run up to get it to rear.

    Rider Or Bike

    That brake doesn't really work =P hahaha yea man anytime dude, you still got my digits?
  13. Well you might be the most powerfull mother f**ker in the world, but if you have 2 engagments you aint' gonna go anywhere are you'
  14. You fall with gravity it is your job to propel yourself with enough propulsion against it, or across it to get where you need to go, its all simple pysics, you fire a bullet at 500mph horizontally and you know where it will land, same with a trials rider doing a gap (obviously not horizontally though) And course there are many uncontrolled variables, how you tuck, how much you can miss the object but still grip it, how many engagements you have to propel, how powerful and skilled you are etc. all which are individual to the rider.

    Rider Or Bike

    I can sidehop and hook my BMX..... a newb on a great trials bike wouldn't touch me riding trials on a BMX, not showing off or anything just sayin' like Not saying its huge but no-one with little / no skill could do that on a sick trials bike
  16. Mass produced? I'm not saying its a bad idea and it has no potential just as you said, you have no experience, no tools, no resources, and no engineering expertise. And your planning on mass producing forks to solve a problem which doesn't really exist? The only way you really bend a front disk is on a rock if your a natural bum boy, having it on the other side won't make it any better. And if your that concerned about hitting your disk anyway, just get a magura, its not like their aren't existing solutions to the problem that you fabricated. Look at some of Alex Darks products he has offered the forum before (although he has the skills and the resources to make the products) if you follow the kinda shit he's doing you might actually sell something. The small company's like Fresh products and carbonique did well before because they found something every rider would want and then made them. I don't think that the trials world is crying out for a disk protector, LHD, or right side braking disks. This is all constructive criticism in a concise manner btw,
  17. The chances of hitting a disk and bending it so much that an adjustable spanner wouldn't fix it, will not be worth the added costs of making 1 off component parts to protect your disk.
  18. You can do open bus tours which are pretty cliché, if your planning on it being a nice day buy a couple of tickets, their like 20quid compared to a 7.50 rail pass, but will drive you through all the "typical" torist'y joints in London, bus's come all the time like every 5 mins and its pretty cool, it can be as long or short as you want to make it, you can jump off at every stop or pick the places out you really want to visit, i.e. Hamleys, Southbank, blah blah blah, you get a free river boat to greenwhich which is pretty cool, lets you venture about without having to get on the underground. Not saying it will be your cuppa tee but something to look up if your interested, think "the big red bus company" was the cheapest last time I did it.
