  1. Great Video! First trials video I've watched in a while after taking up bmx and I was amazed at how much trials has moved forwards. That hook at lloyds was huge, and the last manual to hook line (in London was it?) made me double take. You have a great style there Rowan, and you somehow make everything look easy! This is a great direction for Trials to be moving in.
  2. That was a nice video, cheers OBM. I think EC's style will always be my favorite. Just starting to get footjam whips after several months of hard practise, can't comprehend how he does them so smooth and balanced! And on top of that bank/box ...
  3. I hope your back doesn't keep you from riding that bike too much. Looks like a lot of effort (and money!) has gone into it. Oh and you should have a PM in a sec!
  4. Really love the look of that bike, hope you're proud of it! On the subject of stems, are you moving back to the standard fit stem permanently? I'm quite interested in the DLD and if you wern't going to be using it... Anyway, nice bike!
  5. Here's the update: And the upside down bolts that are far cheaper than micro pegs Rides so so nice and feels really comfortable now that all the parts have had a chance to properly bed in Had a brief encounter with a brake recently, but they're so over-rated
  6. Just browsing through the thread, first time in a while. That made me smile, thanks! Ooh sun's just come out. Watch this space for pics
  7. Thanks for the comments poopipe and eskimo. To clarify...that spines a foot and a half high thankyouverymuch. And the fisheye is one of those things...I personally enjoy watching my clips with that much fish, I guess i just think it makes things look bigger. But I do accept alot of people find it off putting. I like riding in a way that's not about tricks or moves (because I can't do them) but the lines and the innovation. Am I rambling? Anyway thanks for the input, more to come if I can get to hengrove tomorrow!
  8. A couple of clips of me pegless feels so much better!
  9. Been a little while now since I first built it up so i thought I'd post a lil' update: Full Spec: Frame: Superstar Parkinson 21" Fork: Sunday Night Bars: S&M Slam Stem: Odyssey lump of metal, but cheap Grips: Shadow Con. lil' dirty Pegs: dunno?! Seat: Macneil S.L. Seat clamp: Integreated Seatpost: Macneil stump Cranks: Primo powerbite Sprocket: Mankind tolerace Chain: KMC Kool Pedals: Primo super tenderizer Headset: FSA impact Front wheel: Some old one Rear wheel: Hoffman LHD on old rim Front tyre: Odyssey path 2.10 Rear tyre: Odyssey path 1.85 Bar ends: Mashed up plastics Modifications: Stripped the seat and cut the left side axles. Rides nice
  10. I was there!! Sooo much better than team MAD last year! Really great show and the mini bike stuff was awesome. Me and my friend were just walking past and danny jumped on it and alllllmost pulled off a bunnyhop tailwhip haha! Then he goes and hop manuals this thing then comes back the other way and 360s off, but i guess thats all in the vid! Great stuff guys . .....they didn't film it!
  11. Great taste? Looks loverly Mark hope you're enjoying it as much as i am mine. btw, did you have the same problem as me with the seat clamp bolt? i couldn't quite figure it out lol so ended up shoving a starnut bolt through. All they had sent was a bolt that looked right, but had no allen key bit, and a tiny nut.
  12. Woah sorry just got back from work, you're more than welcome, but it'll just be me and a scooter kid.
  13. Thanks for the comment . I'm hoping to get a brake at somepoint, just happened that i ran out of money before I could. Will have two pegs on the right at somepoint too. Aw should have seen my face when pijin sent that odyssey sticker with the order . And Eddie Cleveland is one of the riders that got me interested in bmxing, so :D
  14. Finally! this has been in the works for a long time... Off to newport on friday for the first proper ride on it, caaaaan't wait!

  17. Wasn't the White Industries Eccentric hub designed so you wouldn't need a chain tensioner?! Something about an offset axle? Looks like a great idea though, alot of work must have gone into it!
  18. I think those holes in the top of the frame are just for getting your allen in there to sort out the brakes And, just an idea, theres a hole in the frame to the right of "dream bicycles" (clicky) which i wonder if its for routing the hose through the frame, like the...vinco?!
  19. There's a sort of explanation for that sort of thing happening, not a solid reason but something interesting all the same. Its basically to do with the fact that we can tune into eachothers bodies in the right conditions. Have you ever had the same thought as someone else at the same time? I don't know the explanation behind it really, it was a friend who told me about it, but it's all in a book called "Beyond Supernature". My thoughts are that, you two being related, you're ability to tune into eachother is that much stronger?! Just a little theory, I might be chatting bollocks! Will
  20. If you use windows media player to add songs to your mp3 player, doesn't it convert them for you when you select the ones you want to go in? Will
  21. Hey, I have a rear revolver single speed and it works absolutly fine, never had any problems in the 6 months or so that I've used it. I run it with an ACS Claw freewheel and It works great. I have no idea what the cassette hubs are like though if that's what you meant. Will
  22. Are you sure it's not just that you've got the tpa in too far? http://www.execulink.com/~dtierney/wmc/Magura/TPA.htm I might be assuming wrong, but I hope that's some help anyway. Will
  23. Just to confirm, Yeah you do have to put a tenner on before you put the sim in. I'm using one of those sims atm, not bad at all. Will
  24. Here's mine: Got sounds linked to my hi-fi and that mouse works as a wireless remote control Will
