  1. That would work because its creating more tension on the chain to make the bike rise, but i or most probably hold the front if anything or nothing and use your weight, its hard to describe because most of us do it without thinking now, try and talk to some people that are newer to trials.

  2. to learn to kickhop...

    Kick>hop>brake, simply half kick on your strong foot then hop when the bikes at the correct again and then brake on landing, or to start with just to get the balance point or used to it kick>brake>kick brake so its like a wheelie but controlled using half kicks and braking...

    Once you have learnt the kickhop you will more than likely need to practice the accuracy of it.. so i suggest aiming for a mark on the floor or placing a coin on the floor (Y)

    And the pads should bed in if not you may want to reset them up to make sure they are hitting the rim flat, or clean your rim with a toothbrush and soapy warm water?

  3. Snoopers arent great, go for a road angel or a pda with the tom tom software, my dad has had both.. and they both pick up all the cameras and not automatic doors :) really worth investing the money in to be honest it sounds a lot to first purchase but it can save your license, points or fines.

  4. Thats pretty cool, anyone watched the video?, Other than the poor quality it gives you an idea of the speed and ease of riding it, i bet it will cost a fair bit though.

  5. thats what i say to the bastards everytime they ask haha!

    'it did have a seat, but your mum sat on it and i havent seen it since'

    :D thats awsome (Y)

    Nice slogans lads i may steal some.

    'I ride trials and your mum...'

    'Wheres you seat..shit dunno :o must of fell of on the way'

    'My bikes worth more than your house you pikey' (may incourage stealing though)

  6. if it snaps then ill just get a new one not arsed really were trying to see how much weight u can save on a frame before it gives so we will probly end up drilling more holes untill it just snaps new frames are cheap enough now anyway u can get a koxx xtp for around 600

    What are you doing???

    Ride a heavier bike with worse geo and then change to a modern one and you will be so much better... ask bessell...

  7. I have rode both,

    The GU being what i own, i love it i thought there wasnt a mod that could touch it or match it until....

    I rode danko's bike it felt so light and responsive i think it may have been because he was running non disk and viz rims,

    Either way im still happy with my GU but i would buy a Ko too (Y) your choice...

  8. I have some Fox pads, they are abit exspensive but they do the business and look the business.

    Here is link: Fox Shin Guards

    Al

    I have them and so do three others that i ride with, they are really comfortable and dont restrict leg movement which i think the knee and shins may do, the fox ones are easily fastened simple using velcro (easy on and off) also are washable too (Y), they are fairly padded and are made out of a nice fitting fabric which is important to ensure you get a shinpad that fits correctly to increase the fitting feel of them when used.

    I would go for the fox ones really are great shin pads to be honest, and not overly expensive mine have lasted ages too.
