  1. but thats why it is good, don't need to scroll and it gives you all the info you expect from something like that. simple but yet quite artistic.
  2. i have some monty snail cams, or rather had. mine were a little older say the original ones from my old x-lite lol, some thing david dickinson would be proud of selling. mind you they were crap, i tried all the obvious things to do with them but i guess they were just to old. i hope the latest snail cams are a lot better. good review matey, it's going to help me.
  3. sorry but crap sites aren't worth having. fair enough if your having a go and all but step back and take a look at your effort, you maybe proud of it but in this world your going to have to try harder. true not many people have the professional skills ready at hand but you do have the internet to help you and the guys on tf as well. i got showed this website today( http://www.26twenty.com/videomainframe.html ) and thought it was the best i've ever seen to be honest, given it was probably made by a professional but it hits all the spots, try to aspire to create this. why bother with an argument before as well, whats the point you tell us not to argue and there you are arguing. owel. have fun
  4. its abit of a silly design, every one goes on about geometry and i bet no one here has a bike with the same geometry as that. and also why is there two forks why can't it just be one like a lefty its not as if you need the other one, although what is the point in the whole bike, owel. i like it casters or no casters, thats one funky rig.
  5. i'm gessing that niffty little 20" rider you were on about is leon stimpson. never seen his stuff before but the whole website is prity awesome, cheers. i notice you live in leeds, thats fairly close to where i am. i live in northallerton near darlington if you have heared of that place, there is only a few riders round here but maybe we should get a train down to leeds and have a ride in leeds one day, what is leeds like ot ride? i'm currently not riding anything still paying mummy and daddy off for some dept but should be getting a bit of cash soon to get a new rig sorted then i'll be back on two wheels.
  6. hello there, i've been riding for about a year with a bit of on off times. as you can probably guess it doesn't take a year to learn to track stand or forward hop. my question is where can i go with trials next, i can do most of the basics and i want to make my riding more street like maybe even to the extent of having steve hamilton as an example. i can wall ride, 180, front tap things, a silly trick i learnt off jono, and a few other things. i still ride trials but it is getting a little boring for me lately, i'm not finding as much fun in it as i use to, i'm not a big gap sought of person i prefer riding smooth and making it interesting by throwing in a few things here and there. can any one give me any tricks as you may call them to take it to the next level. maybe information how to do 360's or bars spins and crank flips. i'm quite aware of web sites like trashzen but they don't seem to help me much. i'm also looking to from coming away from 20" and going into 24" which will please/displease some people. cheers in advance
  7. i went form the original ones off my monty 221 x-lite which is ooo older than my grandad to the o6 and, noticed they were worked better but like i have said before there are so many different variables with brakes. they did work allot better but only if they are set up right otherwise they'll feel like smearing poo on your rims. they wouldn't of changed the design unless it was better, every thing is there for a reason.
  8. lol 1 year and four days. this somewhat amuses me as i don't give a f*ck
  9. my mate raps roadie grip round his ba, just like a roadie would he'll be shaving his legs next. although the tape does work.
  10. could you not get a new chain would that not be cheaper? sorry if i miss understood the question.
  11. make the wall ride bigger and longer, then get more speed and put more agresion into it.don't bother with a kicker on to it just bunny hop and tilt a little not much the momentum of you moving will help you. try putting the pallets up against a wall instead then you will have the confidence that it won't fall and you can hit it with more speed. just try little silly tricks, i've sought of only just got into street but just be silly and get a few tricks done on flat land then bring it out to play on the ramps and tramps. get your 180s sorted as well then you will have something to do what ever the obstacle. also see how high you can hop and try some manuals as well, get them nice and it'll feel awesome. have fun
  12. just finished editing some bike pics from yesterday, just though some of you may be interested. have fun
  13. there some really nice shots and spots. quite jelous of the quality of pics. looks like you have nice places to ride aswell. where bouts do you ride? have fun
  14. i've never really liked the green on any green python but then again green isn't my favourite colour. i think a matte black frame and forks, with anodized red components looks very nice though, yes red is my favourite colour lol. nice bright rims though, and nice theme running through the bike. have fun
  15. i'm sure you can get foam to go over the blades, just like the foam handlebar grips. also some people like me for instance use two fingers and it may not suit that little bit of rubber, but then again i could just not buy the product. you could infact dip the lever blade in plastic rubber like my zildjian dipstick drumsticks they are really good for when your hands get sweaty until they wear down. cool initial idea though. have fun
  16. depending on what quality and how well you have set the v brakes up depends on the quality of how they work, there less fidly than hs33 although hs33 are also very nice brakes, don't really mind which one is better as long as it stops me from falling. hs33 are just annoying to set up i find, but then again i am the bodge job extraudinaire when i can be bothered, other things come in though with brakes like pads and grinding the rim and whether using tar would help so there are loads more variables to be considered. have fun
  17. here are the rest of the trials pics, not great but enough to keep some people happy. i also went downhilling today, or atleast i was informed it was dh, but really it was just loads of trails and dirt jumps but never the less i took the trusty digi camera and got some holidays from carlton bank, i'l post them later when i've edited them if any one is interested? will no one else comment about the lack of helmets please, it's getting boring. its our choice whether we ride with them or not and we usually do, don't really need some one telling me to put one on. cheers have fun
  18. cool dude, fair enuf bout that guy see where your coming from.
  19. lol who falls off seriously from doing a track stand, most of us ride with out seats, enabling us to touch the floor any way (unless the guy at the bike shop sold you a bike where the crossbar inverts your testicles) but any way that was quite hostile and i apologise, it's also my choice whether i wear a helmet as well, and i don't think i need to as the only riding i do is to get from place to place for shooting things. it's quite upsetting i know but i don't ride much any more i'm just the camera guy. have fun
  20. that my friend is robbie bell, i think its a try all stem, but i haven't got a clue about the rest, maybe bret would know, i'm rubbish with things like that but il try find out for you, he's off work tomorow and riding so i shall see and get some info.
  21. ive rounded all 8 of my magura bolts before the mounts lol oops maybe i should use better allen keys. if you were a company and could get 25 quid every time a custemer f**cked up there mounts instead of 20p, what would you do. ride v's. have fun
  22. wow there some hesh brakes on that little girls bike, i'd like to see if they'd hold my weight.
  23. i like the fact no one has mentioned proper trials shoes because they just look silly and despite the fact i havnt tried any i don't see the advantage. my mate just rode with is feet in the same place and eventually wore little pin holes in the soles which acted like crap clip pedals. just ride in some skate shoes dude, i've always worn etnies because there comfy and my laft pair are 2 years old and still doing me good for what ever i ride. have fun
