    Films!?

    I thought Sausage Party was pretty funny, exactly what I expected it to be. Was a little disappointed by Star Trek beyond, just wasn't as good as Into Darkness Nice guys was good. Not watched anything that's come out for a while and thought "shiiiiiiite that was good!". Apart from Star Wars.
  2. Because Color street..... WB 950 mm / BB + 80mm / EN 345 mm / 74.5 ° ... has a seat, definitely more street than an Alias. I think the reason that they don't exist is because it's such a niche type of bike in an incredibly small market. Why would a manufacturer commit to a production run if there just aren't the buyers out there?
  3. Alias? Ridden by that not very well known 20" brakeless street beast Flipp.... http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/20_inch_frames/alias_201_with_headset/c36p13201.html
  4. Could try some Jitsie or Trialtech pads on the front, those brakes do take a while to bed in too. Bike looks sweet
  5. Hey dude, that hope trialzone brake is it a front or rear? Post or IS?

      sorry man, just sold it. Was a rear, post mount

  6. I would hazard a guess that the wheel doesn't need moving forwards, you just need to tweak your technique and practice. Are you new to trials? Get some photos of the bike so we can see you set up and if possible a little clip of what you're struggling with, that might show exactly what the problem is.
  7. Have crane, can borrow. Have a small bonus coming in my next pay packet so need to come and pick your brain and get a shopping list for all the little bits I'll need for my rebuild. Either that or I get the 3" exhaust and down pipe bits ordered up. Sounds like yours needs to be finished sooner rather than later, didn't realise your turbo was that bad.... Have you worked out which injectors and pump you're going with? See B5 are now selling a DW65 copy... not sure what it's like.
  8. Coustpads are pretty damn good in all conditions, as were Koxx (TK) browns and reds. Gonna have to disagree with Danny about Phatpads though, most inconsistent pile of poop you could put in a HS33. But each to their own.
  9. This is a bump on an 8 year old topic, asking a question to someone that hasn't visited this forum in 5 years.... Might be a little hopeful.
  10. If it needs to be rim brake compatible I doubt there is anything stronger than a TR. A year isn't that bad really and they aren't overly expensive to replace. Probably not the answer you were looking for... sorry. That and ride smoother
  11. Apart from the mini Onza seat and not using a DX32 out back... it's awesome! Loved my Pashley, awesome bike!
  12. Yay for car bits. Guess that means I best strip my engine down and get rebuilding....
  13. Stranger Things was awesome. Really enjoyed preacher, really enjoying the dark humour in it.

  15. It's a shame that comments aren't auto-disabled to all of you posts and topics (yes I see the irony in the fact i've responded to your thread). Just out of pure curiosity, what drives you to cut frames up and remove your videos an hour after you've posted them?
  16. Be Saturday mate, when most down here ride.
  17. If you're looking to ride over the weekend at all then put up a post on the South West Trials FB group or send me a PM! So much riding up on Dartmoor it's ridiculous.
  18. Yeah but you don't really get a lot with this forum, probably the language/humour barrier. Loved the vid, shame the Trials scene in the US seems to be dying Not sure if you were intentionally fulfilling the stereotype that most Americans know feck all about the world outside there own country with the Turje/turkey gaff or actually a genuine mistake...
  19. Get on! Good to meet you when you were down, shame we didn't get anything filmed in Plymouth. Big riding, questionable skinny cut off shorts...
  20. So a few additional steel pads welded in place is going to cost you £2k? Hardly internet scare mongering, it's the equivalent of getting buckets and harnesses and then mounting the harness on a random hole you've drilled and shoved a bolt through. You might have the gear there. but it's not properly installed and therefore won't do it's job properly. Just seems logical. And using the excuse that hundreds of other people are doing it, so it must be ok..... is bull! Do it once, do it right. Especially as the car is currently ripped apart.
  21. What's the point of putting it in if you aren't going to do it properly?!
