  1. I think thats more what i was trying to get at, something so you can give a direct comparison between the actual rise of the different bars
  2. Yeah i fully appreciate that, but some bars will have 10mm rise to the first bend and others will have, like the trialtech high rise bars, considerably more. surely to allow a direct comparison that needs to be taken into consideration?
  3. No one saying that you aren't making a tester bike as such, its just with the current geo you wont be able to ride it for trials in any way, if you can ride it at all; so testing it for strength will be very difficult.
  4. Why do trials parts manufacturers never include the rise of the bars like mountainbike handlebar manufacturers? They include upsweep and backsweep, which are standard measurements but not rise, which would make comparisons between bars and how the'y effect the riding position of a bike much easier....
  5. i've got some mahoosively wide truvative holzfeller 50mm risers on mine witha 80mm USE stem, rides pretty nicely
  6. you do realise with a stanard set of trials forks that will have a ridiculously steep head angle and extremely low bottom bracket; it's geometery will have more in common with a road bike than a trials bike. I would love ot see a video of you trying to ride it.
  7. I was looking and think why has he posted nothing, then i realised the type was so damn big i couldn't see it Game on. And luke are you sure about all of those criteria?

    Like i said, there should be a de-vaildation option too. But votes should have to have some for of justification for them.
  9. What forks do you have and how old are they, if they're forks with a bonded steerer then the steerer could have come loose?
  10. I really like the look of these bikes, wish they'd set up some sort of proper international distribution/ordering system.
  11. Is it the headset moving where its loose or are the headset cups moving in the frame?
  12. Thank f**k for that, might do sonisphere this year
  13. Is it me or do Americans just sound funny when they're angry?
  14. Luke are you thinking of goin to reading this year?
  15. Would be rude not too, looking forward to using the lil bike properly.
  16. Got to agree, always liked Monty's and this bike sums up why, its gorgeous.
  17. So you would have saved a fiver, big freaking deal, the frame is £209, that's filthy cheap for a quality frame. Ashton never should have put a release date on it to start with, at least then it wouldn't have got pushed back, but still, its hear now, proven by Rowan and Martyn, good geo and a bargain.
