Thats hardly a difference though is it adam, alloy instead of carbon the design is the same. Last year or 2 ive realy not liked deng stuff and still dont even with all this new stuff. Also theres a new front disk hub, is that not an old tryall hub machined alittle around the spokes? Guessing this stuff is going to be a great hit though with 3/4 of the trial community.

That tr dengura looks exactly like a rb lever does it not? infact id say it looks identical from memory.

If there not fit for sale then no he can't, because if grant fitted them and they ripped out and he servierly hurt himself then he could sue dan really as dan sold him them knowing they wern't fit. Its the way the law works. I ust to work in a shop and a 4 way plug extension had written on it 0.5m long cord but the cord either wasnt quite that long or a tad longer and had to be recalled just due to that. We couldnt sell it a customer even though the lenght difference didn't even matter it was that small and he wasnt bothered.

If i remember right they didnt even end up that light did they compared to tryall?

Im sorry but thats hardly a excuse "cut him some slack hes a one man business". This is business, you dont preform and expand createing a good name you soon go out of business closing down. Being a one man business is no excuse he should know that because of this customer service will slip, orders go wrong and just go fecking employ more people. The price of someones wage compared to the better service and happier customers resulting in more business is a price worth paying. Adam tarts employs 3 people plus him aswell, he could do it with less but that would mean his business would be like dans and wouldn't be where it is now.

18:16 is where its at. ps: get a vee

Not keen, looks so bland, but long as it rides well.
-
not really. Its a similar shape but its a half bashring theres not many shapes to do. Plus this one is cnced different. wonder why they have a pointless bit of material on the back side that will do bugger all. Just adds weight and machining time.

Not really, they got the patent and produced the freehweel. And is a feature of there freehweel which makes it what it is and one that has made it sell like it is. Its called business and is what you would proberly do i the position. Im guessing the freewheel has been left with no brand marking on so that it will be harder for onza to stop the production of it or if they do it won't be before they hit the shelves. Onza must have relised that people would try copying the spline interface but copying the whole freewheel with what looks nearly indentical is going to far i think and unless it retails at a superb price it won't suceed as people will pay for the tnesile brand and fact you can buy parts seperate and good warrentie. Obviously that isnt the case, may be shimano never patented it, unless you patented it people can and will copy no matter if you say dont do. As far as im aware onzas patent is on the interface not on the tool used so it doesnt matter if the tools made buy shimano as its only the interface on the freewheel that is being used and is patented.

Cant stand the ride of betas, the footpeg position and clutch, gasgas it is for me.
-
Was an actually is really common as far as im aware. Its happened to quite alot of riders. Ive had it happen to me. I dont run magura now anyway as there a pain in the arse and i don't feel the brakeing is good enough anyway compared to a vee.
-
if you think youve done well youve usually done shit, and if you think youve done shit well you will have. just thought id throw them findings in there.
-
there was a problem with trialstube and was sorted few day ago.
-
More than likely wasnt an actually onza hub.

If he wants to keep it under wraps im pritty sure he won't tell you, Dave is pritty secretive. More chance of milking a stone. Pure speculation but im wouldn't bet on him doing them because as we know squares corners are a stress point and can lead to cracks. Alot of pressure goes through the rear compared to the front, and the last thing he wants is alot of failures and a bad name from it.
-
You should come up north where the big boys ride, where the proper riding goes down. Plus the north has the best natural spots in the country id say. Cant offer you anywhere to stay though sadly.
-
It wern't exactly breath taking so wouldnt be to bothered. And wern't right good quality.

Only thing im going to say is errrr rear disk.

Honestly you think theres a big mark up? It costs an awful lot of money to be running a cnc machine just for an hour even. Why would they mark it up so much that its at a price where few riders will buy it when if they had it cheaper it would be a popular rim sell more but with a smaller profit but in the end make them more money. The price is because of the process and they have kept it down as much as possible id be suprised if there even making alot on the rims. Onza obviously havnt anticpated that people are going to be chargeing over to tarty for the rims or other dealers, so they have ordered a small amount. If you dont want to pay the price for one dont get one its that simple. Its not over priced because of the process it goes through, yes if they where making the rim for £1 and selling for 75 then yeah it would be over priced but for the process it goes through it isnt over priced. I dont see why people are slateing onza for it because they are the only company at the moment who seem to be putting any effort into new inotive designs and products, apart from koxx. They knew they wouldnt sell loads so havnt made loads so whats the big dealio.

Fancy telling me the compound to neco pads then, and a link to? If mike gets it from same place as ali its a place up north not on ebay. I struggled to find any rubber on ebay before when looking into making some pads.
-
I didn't say it was a secret but it can take along time to come across the right compound. i Just said the facts thats all.
