Greetings

you were VERY lucky. i had a bb issue some time ago, and the remaints of the axle ripped my leg apart almost cutting some important vein right through. had a photo, it looked sooo nice hope all is well cheers

well, i might also add: that day i was riding my monty 221 - 2+2+1 = 5 it had 19 and 20" rims - 1+9+2=12, 1+2=3 and a 68cm bar - 6+8=14, 1+4 = 5 it adds up to 13.

how can you... they have a multiajustable, super hi-tech profiled lever, that has probably cost millions to design and even more to explain to people how amazing it is, and how it will improve their social life and wrist problems. and you're just calling it a magura substitute. how rude. but still, the juicy are very strong. my friend had a juicy 5, 160 rotor on 26" wheel, and it would lock up with no effort.

who knows, maybe in 20-30 years our kids will be reffering to what we use now as "haha look my daddy used some old crap hydraulic magura brakes and a Ti6 Hope brake, gosh I think it's still somewhere in my attic, hydraulics, lol"

orge i'm a fan of pokemon as well! or is it the happy tree friends? nevermind, isis is more durable, thicker, safer, can be ligher and your cranks won't get out of line so quickly the cons are, that if the taper wears out (i.e. in a crank) then you will have a very big problem in getting it right. i can take off my zoo crank by just unscrewing the screw and pulling the arm out.

well, i heard that they are very weak, and actually quite unsafe to use. can't give you any examples though

me and my friend have got some king hubs recently. now there are a total of 2 king hubs used in trials in poland. as these will probably last us a lifetime (if taken care of) there is the problem of maintinance - you cant really work on this hub without the chris king hub tool and that's a bit expensive, might i say. is there another way of removing the bearings in a safe way? you guys probably just take your hubs to bicycle shops, but we have no such option. advice? is this tool worth the 100 pounds or are there some aftermarket tools that will fit?

i'd say yes. a close approach needs to be very accurate, as you have probably already discovered just keep practicing, there's nothing more you can do to learn the correct distance imo if you have too much crank movement, you will bail

that's great news i loved his riding in the london 2 video, but that was the last i saw him neat site

great riding. somehow i had the feeling as if i was watching a TRA video

suggest you go through all the trials videos you've downloaded. the 3 first tracks in TM2 are awesome Hawkwind - Orgone accumulator Hawkind - Back on the Streets The Stranglers - No More Heroes

i'd say the best is Benito, but i could watch TRA movies all day and all night and he's my favorite rider

tram not train

yep, but i had them sent from the USA to my friend in the UK, and then put on a bus and brought to Poland.

08:38 that an amazing technique :D:D

yep, pallets are great i think the best way to get better is to ride with others - have somebody a bit better than you, and a very good rider. that should help you a lot also, having ridden in dh and 4x, you should have a good idea about controlling the bike. im sure you'll learn very quickly

think about it this way - discs need to be bed in. once they have done so, the disc is smoother than when it was just after mounting it onto your bike. grinding a disc would reduce its braking power substantially. DONT do it

had some ck hubs sent to me through the uk. no import tax payed, looks as if i was lucky there

Pissed off that i have wasted so much time for nothing. It also influences my sleep if i play too much (thankfully it happens very rarely as i just dont have the time).

James consider applying for personal advisor. You sure would improve her image. That was so embarasing. Regina is a she

Very surprising. In my country you are allowed on trains with bikes and practically anything that hasn't got an engine. They make no problems, but there's somtimes no place to keep the bike. In the city transport like buses and trams, they dont allow bikes and have given really stupid reasons for this. I once had a big argument with a chap that didnt want to let me on the tram with my mod bike. He first said its too big. I folded it up nicely (bars 90 degrees) so that it was no longer 68cm wide. Then he said that that they have had an accident where somebody got pierced by handlebars ( ). So I suggested taking the handlebars off, just for this retard to tell me that bikes are not allowed. Result? 5km riding against the wind. Bloody asshole. Whereas not once did I manage to take my trials bike onto a bus, and just have to pay aditionally. I find its best if you have a word with the driver first. But still, i suppose the UK is more strict, also you only have one currency. We can pay in vodka or in złoty, the first one being very effective when asking for something.

thats exactly what id do if id want to get rid of something like that. why not keep it?

try and get a server without data transfer limits. i got one of mine (333mb) with unlimited transfer for the equivalent of 11 pounds/year. used up 140gb of transfer in one day, something that would have cost me loads of money with a provider that charges for data transf. basically, with a data transf. of 1.5-3gb per month, you will be unable to set up a web with many photos and some vids, because you will get locked in no time. my site eats up about 1 gig of transfer each day, and its not hugely popular, because it gets no more than 100 hits a day. that's one of the advantages of living in a retarded country - one can buy good stuff for nothing

thanks for the help, but as im not from the uk it's rather a hastle to order stickers from some store tom - if you do happen to come across the font, give me a pm

relax. it works best on this move. dont keep your arms tense, operate your bike in an easy manner, use more body weight shifting than force in getting the bike where it should be. i find this move much better on low walls when i ease out EDIT: Imo it wouldnt make a great difference if you replaced your parts with ligher ones
