Are there any other Neils that may be searched at TF concerning their interview in a MTB mag? Of course it is Mr Tunnicliffe. Thank you for the number, oakley!
-
Hello everyone! Neil is not on the MSN. And the deadline is coming. That means the whole mag is into a trouble. I need to write him a txt or call him. If you know his cell, please let me know through PM. This is very urgent. Thank you in advance!

It is for sale now. http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/forum/index....showtopic=92019

The funny thing is that in Russia the Dengura would cost you 4900 roubles. Which is 94 quid Happy Russian trials riders we are

Correct. The rear wheel just has stickers on it. But the front is the Onza rim...the tape is of the same vinyl as decals
-
There was a guy who ordered a frame from me. He wanter pink decals. So we made it. Then he wanted the same colour rim tape (check the front rim) I made them of the same material - it is Oracal Fluo sticky film which is used for interprise stickers. I made a Corel Draw file where is specified how wide the lines would be to fit the rim. Then I had the plotter to cut me those lines. Voila, the rim tapes are ready. It costs like 1 quid.

I think it had been posted here quite a few times... I tried it just for fun... BikeCAD is good for seeing how this or that geo and color gonna look like on a built up bike. But there is nothing to do with proper software like AutoCAD or Solid Works.

I respect mafia There's no other way

We used to ride ages ago...like in 2002 and 2003. They have trials bikes but they hardly ever ride...So they know what a trials bike should be. I also envy myself...at the same time I forgot how to ride after a year of no riding. And now I have 2 trials machines Will be sharing the bike with my friends when their bikes are broken... Just to be fair

Russian mafia, boooyaka Had a birthday party a few weeks ago... In the mid of the party 3 old friends of mine entered the room. Was so happy to see them. I haven't seen them for quite a while (a year or so). We used to work together. They told me the present was outside. We left the club and I could not believe my eyes....there was new shiny Koxx XTP in the trunk of one of my friend's car. Damn....I was shocked at the moment. I haven't ridden for a year or so because I had no bike at all. Now I have two bikes...triton mod and koxx stock. Life is a funny thing...

Haha, Matt Let me test my forks first. But they are feeling really nice so far. Ian, thanks for the comments. Yeah...1.5 years ago there was not a single Triton produced. But I am not a millionaire yet either I think Luke rides Triton Deema. From the first batch of frames sent to the UK. He is more into road and XC riding at the moment. Does that mean I should try an XC frame or a roadie? Triton has not got a proper website. That's shame. I must set up one ASAP.
-
Don't believe the page. The stock model itself has already been improved quite a lot. Give Luke Edwards a call.
-
TritonCycles deal in them. 595 quid as far as i remember.
-
Damn...50 is to many for me so far Yes, Luke is the person who deals with Tritons in the UK. Yes, custom geo is available The forks are not yet available to the public. Needs to be tested first.
-
Yeah, those forks are Ti. Whoah...should there be 50 pcs of each model or just 50 of total frames ever produced? Thank you for the comments!

BTW, here are those two topics at OTN: http://observedtrials.net/vb/showthread.php?t=25333 http://observedtrials.net/vb/showthread.php?t=25619

Haha Nice Why didn't they market them? There is nothing new in this world. Exactly. PS: Loughborough College

Deng is probably already watching us. Hello Deng

Oh come on Craig...don't worry about that...I was also drawing the guard in my textbooks for a year or so...before I managed to actually make one. There is a guy at biketrials.ru who also said he had the idea. I also felt a bit beaten when saw a topic at OTN where a guy made a one piece magura brake booster + magura top mounts. I used to draw it a year ago...but never managed to make one...so now I can't prove I was the first with the idea. And the first guys to actually event it were the motorcyclists... PS: Go on, share the looks of your guard

Thank you for the comments by the way! I hope sooner or later trials disc brakes will be a lot more powerful than today's models. The brakes on motorbikes have tiny rotors so the guards are also small. I wish I had my martas running as good on 140mm rotors as they do on 180s. That would be fantastic. Why wouldn't Hope make those? Is there any physical problem? The master cylinders should be as small as possible and the slave ones should be as big as possible. Are there any light ways to make the brakes more powerful?

I had expected such reaction to the guard First of all, take motorcycles. Many of them have the same mounting type as in my sharkfin. And motorcycles are a lot heavier than tiny trials cycles. Motos hit rocks loads harder. There are 3 stainless steel M6 bolts holding the guard. You can use a 5mm alien key to remove the guard. Takes a few seconds. The guard itself is very stiff and it holds on a flat Ti plate. I machined myself a pretty thin guard because I abuse the right side mainly. I wanted to show my idea to the trials world. There will be another frame with the guard shortly. There will be a bigger gap between the rotor and the guard. And the guard will be slightly fatter and of a bit different shape (covering more space of the rotor to insure its well-being).
