Greetings

This is great, Kenny is really doing trials a big favour.

Those Czars should be pretty strong frames. Rockmans are not, and they're overpriced. If you're not concerned about weight or looks and like the geometry of both frames, go for the Czar.

With 2009 slowly coming to an end, one can look back at the whole year and sum it up. What's it been like for you? Anything very good or bad happened? Had fun / bored the shit out of yourself? Any important changes? For me it was by far the best year in my life for a number of reasons: - Had lots of fun riding trials - Did my bachelors degree, started masters course - Business going well - Started drifting - Had a loving gf - Travelled around the country - Met lots of great people - Apart from the last month, been happy non stop all year I'm pretty sure there was a thread like this somewhere, could have been last years though.

Yeah, pretty much. Front rims are a bit more consistent though.

The title of this thread is very misleading.

Thank god for Trials Forum.

That's true but it'd be so much fun if what they stage happened for real. That's the only problem I have with Top Gear at the moment.

That's something I've heard from almost every rider who used the original Coust compound in the short white pads. I used to have some '06 Coustsinks and they were absolutely amazing, after a few years I replaced the pad material and the braking was never as good anymore. They're still awesome brake pads though.

Pretty much the other way round.

It's outdated but it's a classic so if someone appreciates that, they'll probably pay around 150?

That's amazing. His riding is so similar to yours. I'd love to see a video of you two riding together.

That's got to be the best trials vid since Dreams of Glass. Most of that stuff is genuinely amazing. What I like most of all is that you can *usually* tell what line you're going to be doing, and the thought alone of what's going to happen in a moment can be baffling - like with those railings and the rooftop.

Cars are THINGS, just pieces of metal plastic and glass you can buy for money. How on earth can you even compare that to a human being.

I'm pretty sure that's what the Monty 4 pawl freewheel actually is.

Zoo's look so nice without stickers.

Well it says mod in your profile so it's probably not going to be bad geometry (some stocks are difficult to bunnyhop). You do realise that you lift the front end of the bike with the whole body, not just with your arms?

Brilliant

I'm gonna get two so I have something to stir my tea with while the other frame is in the dishwasher.

Since 2001, I'm slowly getting fed up now.

Shit, too slow. It only changed like 3 or 4 years ago This forum is made of win and I'm pretty sure I voted for an option yesterday which no longer exists in this poll.

Had them for quite a while, thought they were great.

You're pretty good at those backhops

Now that's a big gap. You could almost fall into it if you trod on it.

Go to sleep much earlier, like before midnight. Not only should you find it easier to fall asleep after a few nights but you'll also sleep better, wake up early and have a full day ahead of you. I used to fall asleep at 4-5am because I didn't feel tired, I'd sleep till 12 or 1pm, more often than not have a bad night and wake up tired. After a few days of forcing myself to go to bed no later than 1am, suddenly I had no problems with falling asleep and having a good night.

Can't sleep
