  1. Not quite sure if that one went right over your head or if you missed the fact that JAF doesn't really exist any more. Or at least has stopped making trials frames.
  2. I wish! Could potentially do this weekend or the next, depends as I may be getting my ankle sorted by a certain Physio this coming weekend. If not i'm definitely game. Although like I said, currently in an air cast and on crutches Gimme a call tomorrow evening when you're free after work.
  3. Awesome Rich! Really really enjoyed that, sums up everything I love about Devon and Cornwall. Such a good vibe! Need to ride, climb and drink more
  4. Well whenever you want to get the bits sorted dude let me know. Although I will need a hand as I conveniently fecked my ankle again yesterday evening, so won't be the most mobile for the next month or so

    Films!?

    How To Train Your Dragon 2: awesome
  6. From what i've read I thought they were sprung steel.
  7. That's what it thought, just looks like a cheap and nasty frame. As everyone seems to be posting their own bikes; my Breath 20"
  8. That was a pretty beasty looking sidehop at the end!
  9. You need some help, you make far to many references to sexual gratification about trials bikes! Although they all look pretty nice, apart from that dropbike frame.
  10. I was thinking more along the lines of "future job for the paramedics/coroner". But dickhead works.
  11. Looks quite nice to me Could be quite different in the flesh, shame we don't really have any sunshine to view it in! This sounds very much like a plan! Finally got the DP fitted along with the cat back exhaust last weekend. Acquired myself an Eibach front ARB, just need something for the rear now.
  12. What's wrong with purple Luke? You say purple, but how purple? Step up from red, I hate red cars!
  13. Incredibly biased and slightly rose tinted I would say.
  14. Very rarely and generally only if it's new Onza bits etc.
  15. I don't think the majority of people question the sanity of conspiracy theorists, but merely question the shit they spew. *And before you get all conspiracy theorist on me, by "they" I mean the conspiracy theorists.
  16. Jardo does seem to have his moments and that post was one of them. I do find myself in the trials related sections of this forum less and less over the last few years and that is primarily down to the amount of shit that gets posted in there. But I can't see me stopping logging in any time soon, even if it is to satisfy some strange form of voyeurism and see how everyone I've known in the period of time i've been on here is doing and what they're up to.
  17. If it's 27.2 just get a Thomson dropper post, look pretty damn good and not much more than a Reverb. How much is good money?
  18. Onza were bought by Moore Large, a cycling distribution company here in the UK. Best bet is to contact them http://www.moorelarge.co.uk/. Joe the Onza brand manager at Moore Large is a lovely chap and the son of the brands original owner; sure he'll sort you out
  19. Think you misread what he was after Josh... I read that he was after a 4 bolt spider that screws on to a 1.37" x 24 tpi thread found on most trials cranks designed for a FFW. I.E. A 4 bolt version of what Adam linked to.
  20. That's fair enough, if you've got a cable and lever then get a BB7 Definitely worth the extra money over a BB5.
  21. Are they really that cheap? You need a calliper and rotor, lever and really a linear slic cable. Just very quickly from CRC (I know you might be able to get bits from elsewhere cheaper, but this was for a quick easy example): Linear slic cable £9.99 Avid BB7 Front 160mm rotor £39.99 Avid FR5 Lever £9.99 Total: £59.97 Fine if you're getting it all second hand as it'll be a bit cheaper (although i'd fit new cables at least) and even then it won't be much cheaper than that hope at £60.
  22. I couldn't live with my filter that colour, had to mask off the element and spray it satin black. I'd definitely do the strut bar too. You going to get the washer bottle and header expension tank covers?
  23. The formula brakes can be a littel hit and miss, also expensive to sort if they do go wrong. I'd say it's the only weak link in that build; bloody bargain really! I've been considering the 456 Evo frame, look like bargains really. Let us know how you get on with it.
  24. These small style bashplates that mount just on the BB shell are fairly new aren't they? Means the BIU guys can use them, but it avoids the downside of having a welded mount on the downtube.
