lankyri replied to flange's topic in Beginners Trials Chat
this is what id like to see in a mag, new places- go to a different location every issue and take piccys of the spots interviews- either with the top pros or up and coming riders how to- different trick taught in a step by step with piccys new bike/ conpoments- find out whats new on the market lots of piccys hope this helps mate and cant wait if this mag goes ahead ric -
i run a hope bulb its ok ive sent it to hope once because it basically didnt stop skipping :( but now its great theres a lil skip here and there but what hub dosent great hub put i would prefer the xc lot cheaper as well :S but both in my opinion are better than a king hope this helps ric

thats what happened to me a month or two back, hopped up wall and wrist goes crack, so i go and get a wrist support from mates house and carried on (stupid thing to do) next day i go to hospital as im in so much pain luckly no brakes or frature just alot of fluid i think, it kept me off my bike for at least 2 weeks before i was confortable hopping around and still i cannot rotate my wrist all the way around it sucks i can ride but i cant do my weights or upper body excersise (sp) but yeah all you can do is wait theres no point trying to ride if you are going to be in pain and hurting yourself even more

when you say back wheel four crates which way is this i.e. pedal hop, wheeliehop or bunnyhop and dont worry mate patience is the key i can backwheel four (wheeliehop and static) any higher i go to bash but if you go at a slightly faster speed and patience you will do it, as for me i find it hard to go fast but im still practicing everyday of the week you can do it :D ric and four months well done mate :P :'( (Y)

-
hope xc's on the new echo rims if they fit which they should 48mm wide, as for the Tensioner why not go for a sora rear mech 15 pound from supercycles and really small so less chance of hitting it on walls etc hope this helps

how do i snap QR well basically i want my wheel to be really tight but some times they just snap it sucks i no ive snapped kore skewers shimano skewers bbb skewers and other non branded skewers luckly i no the bike shop owner by me so he gave me a set for free and il pay him back when i got the dosh lol o chrishayton how did you brake a front hub, ive done a hope bulb rear hub i just sent it to hope cheers rick
-
my opinion would be get rid of the halos they are rubbish in my opinion get some atomlab rims or even mavic, for the frame colour i would say a gloss black (boring i know) but but it just looks so stealthy looking and crisp or if you want to be noticable go for a really wild colour like candy red or metalic blue hope this helps ric
-
good day after my lesson in college i thought i would go out for a ride and i did a small ish gap from wall over pavement to the road, then all i hear is a snap... o no not another one i say my rear QR had blown to pieces lol whats the most quantity of bike part you have broke if that makes sense (Y) mine is: rear mech hangers= 5 mechs= 2 chains= 4 QR= 6 hubs= 1 cranks= 3 handlebars= 1 cheers rick
-
the black bash eg flowers one or the one that u get on the orbita cranks are crap and the design on it is crap the uci cranks eg the ferrets now simpsons seem to be better but i do believe that these cranks are made for natural use only as it says on tartybikes, if you really want a decent crank that wont let you down that you can use for street and natural are middleburns......... but whats this i hear uci cranks have a smaller bash well hears my answer middleburns super pro :P
