  1. Nice Vid Mate.

    Your going to have to come back down cambridge sometime with your bro (Y)

    And i noticed that you got a front brake now? Still got the old halfords wheel though :P

    See You Next Time in Cambridge

    Cheers

    Mitch (Y)

  2. Go for the mutiny spokes off tartybikes, if you want black i cant think of any others ut primo though.

    however i have found with the mutinys the nipples become corroded and the spokes a bit rusty on the contact ppoiunts etc but theyre still strong as ever.

    Might be beacause i ride by the sea too . . .

    Mutiny Spokes come in black aswell (Y)

    Im running Black mutiny Spokes (Y)

    Cheers

  3. I have a boring washing up job but im 16 now so hoping to move on to a till job.

    I use money from my job, xmas and birthday to fund my bike but mum and dad come and give me a hand with the cash to. They paid £800 towards my GU ^_^

    Cheers

  4. I recommend Try-all shoes from Tartybikes or cleanbikes (Y)

    They offer alot of grip (Y)

    But if you got enough money get a pair of ribo shoes they are supposed to be best shoes for trials(Y) These can be bought from coustellier.co.uk but not sure if that is the web address.

    You should search for topics on shoes there have been a few topics started over these (Y)

  5. I would recomend either the Ronnie rim or the new Echo rims.

    The only problem with the echo rims is that the hub has to be 32h due to spoke holes in the rim which means you cant run a profile.

    Apart from that the echos are really good (Y)

    Also Ronnies come in 36h and 32h so you can have whichever hub.Ronnies are good aswell because they hold grinds well and brakes are easy to set up so no need to grind down your pads.

  6. This is my personal opinion on what i think it takes to get Validated-.

    Write sensible, and helpful posts. Dont fill the forum with un-useful spam.

    Write Posts using punctuation

    Try and prove yourself to the Mods and admins that you are a dedicated trial riders

    Dont ask how to be validated, and when you will be validated

    I.E use your brain!

    Also stick to guidelines, for example dont try and sell stuff in the new members chat.

    Also just stay cool and play the waiting game like someone above mentioned.

    Dont always expect to be validated in the first 30mins of joining :)

    Thanks

    Mitch

    EDIT: Just remembered another one, Dont use Text talk as its very hard to understand

    This is a great example of How to become a member! :-

    Just realised that my whole Post is a good example of how to become validated.

  7. Hi matey,

    If you want a short bike get a Onza T-lite, Saw Little Ashley Butler riding one of these at YMSA and he shreds on it. (Y) You can get one Here

    If you are quite wealthy you could always go for the monty 221 Ti or even the slighly cheaper version the 221 Pro both available from Here

    Remeber though,

    Just because your short dont assume that a long bike wont work for you :)

    Thanks Mitch

  9. I would say use the new echo cranks (or old) with the echo bashring.

    OR

    The Zoo Cranks with the bashring.

    The new echos and Zoo cranks both come in isis BB so i suggest the FSA Platinum ISIS from CRC

    But if you purchased the 05 Echo Cranks you can get either ISIS or Square taper. But i think the ISIS Tapered cranks would be a better option (Y)

    Cheers

  10. It took me about two months to learn pedal hops.

    My problem was i was kicking the pedals but i wasn't hopping.

    So i learnt back hops but then i couldn't merge hopping and pedal kicking together.

    But i slowly started synchronizing them together and got pedalhops dialed (Y)

    Cheers
