  1. i look like a total idiot when i were my helmet! i don't wear my helmet that oftern but i am going to start every time i ride, as my friend told me that, " a helmet can be replaced, you can't " that made me think.... so now i am going to were my helmet! it could save your life! so wear a helmet! ollie
  2. in my opinion www.tartybikes.co.uk they have really good service! and if i was you i wouldn't get the t-bird because that has a high gear ratio and that means pedaling a lot and not going far!!!unless you get a new freewheel/cog im not the best person to talk to about that, the t-pro is probaly the best bike for your money. hope i help ollie
  3. i hate to say this but, if you are looking for a bike to get arround on and ride trials on i would say get a stock(26"). I like mod better but thats just my opinion, and i find that i can get arround on my mod(20") quite easly but it is easyer to get arround on a stock. And if you do get a mod, if u can go and extra £20 get the onza t-pro great begginers bike, and lots of advance people ride them as well, i went for the t-mag but it's not that much different from the t-pro! so to conclude to get arround easly get a stock to get arround on a better bike but not as easy get a mod (Y) hope i help ollie
  4. i was just wondering how many prople used cable brakes? and if you do what? or if you run hydrolice what do you run front and back? i run a magura julie on the front and a HS33 on the back. what do you run? thnaks ollie oh and what do you think of what you run?
  5. like i said probaly pointless! and fu*k me i wish i cud meet the guy who rides with one hand! i and so glad for him that it didn't stop him riding! the point in they giro thing is just the bit that splitls the cable not the whole giro! and what about the hydrolic ones? would that work?
  6. i was thinking, that you could maby run two brakes off on lever (the front and back, or two front or two back ones)? well heres how i would do it: you know the things that bmx'ers have on there gyro where the cable is split into two? well u you could get one of them coming from the lever and the it splits into two cables so a cable rim and a cable disk brake?! or...even better two hydrolic brakes, instead of the gyro thing you could use on of the little things that people use to split the hosing into two to connect to the back brake. just a crazy idea that i had! it might work but it would be VERY pointless, but hey, most of my ideas are! so what do you think? do you think it would work? i mite try it out one day when i have nothing to do! eg, when it rains! thanks ollie
  7. yes! add me to msn! wawne@hotmail.co.uk
  8. he means pic of koxx ect wanted as well! so it won't get closed!
  9. mine has to be the t-mag atm, because i have my new one (Y) but i love the look of the zoo python. does any one know how much the XTP is?, just out of interest? thanks ollie
  10. noooooooo! thats torture! she can't do that! im getting a new frame, tyre, seat and pedals for chrismas :( but my mum hasen't got them yet! so she will get them near christmas and then i won't have to wait long. I hate knowing your present is in the house but you don't know where, and even if you find it you can't ride it, play on it ect.. ollie
  11. it could be one of a few things, the most likeley to be that you have air in the system and you need to bleed the brake.Or you could need some new pads, what are you running?, or you could need to move the slave cylinders (i think), well the bits that hold the pads, closer to the rim or the last thing you could try a standard maggie booster, there only a tenna and it made my front brake better, (i have one if you want it? my msn is in my addi) that will make your brake lock better. so i hope i have help, ollie oh and one more thing, you could just need to turn the TPA to the "+" and that will move the pads closer to the rim without taking the brake off your bike
  12. Do u have any pic of the snap? And don't abuse me this time please. Ollie
  13. A little harsh telling me to die don't you think? it was only a joke! And i have tried big wheels, and i don't like them :) but just my opinion! so don't be so harsh, please. ollie
  14. Well you don't need pics, as you can just look in your other topic. But I hope you get some vids I wouldn't mind seeing some as I am a bit bored. :) Ollie
  15. oh well...its ONLY a stock., just get a mod.lol. no, just kidding, can't you get any money back from the waranty? and what frame was it? ollie
  16. hi hoot, and welcome to the forum. How long have you being riding? or have you just started? well i hope it goes well for you anyway. ollie >_<
  17. if you are talking to me i did mine about 3 months a go but it was fine after around a week but it hurt to sit down and stuff like that! ollie
  18. i do unicycleing (trials), skate boarding, blading, obviously trials biking, well there the only good ones i do! ollie
  19. another one is, don't go down a really big hill and then try to hop off a curb to your back wheel when about 10mins ago u just nackered up the thred in your frame and disconected your back break, other wise your tail bone finds out about it and fu*k me it hurts! so just remember when you have disconected your back brake! ollie >_<
  20. sorry that was my very first time posing a picture and i didnt know how to make it smaler, and i only found out it was huge after i posted it and then i wouldnt let me edit it to get rid of the picture, so once again sorry! ollie
  21. sorry ignore me i read some thing wrong then looked again so i have edited!
  22. no! it looks like you bang your balls, well some times you do, but not very oftern, because you bend your legs to take the shock, like you do o a trials bike, but if you bent yor legs to far, then (Y) it hurts! i learnt that the hard way :D ollie
  23. i ride a unicycle, well i ride trials on a uni cycle, well i just started about 3months ago! i found it has helped me alot with my riding, but when you fall of the first time you go on it don't give up! it olny took me 3 days to learn how to ride and now im hopping all over the place! (Y) its ace, so have fun and be careful, wear protective gear! feel free to add me to msn if you want! my addi is in my profile. hope i help ollie
