  2. british racing green frame/forks, bright orange rims
  3. surely thats to short for tgsing? or do 24s not need to be as long to feel as long?
  4. i have 94mm spacing according to tarty, and i can run an echo urban rim 46mm wide although when i have new heatsink pads i need to run my adapters (onza) all the way out.

    New Frame

    doesn't matter if they hold a grind well, some pads work superbly on a dead grind, so achieving the "dead" finish on the sidewall might be a plus...
  10. gear ratio, 22-18, 18-15, 24-20 are the usual weapon of choice for stock riders.

    your lying if crude thoughts didn't go through your head tf.
  12. simtras only a +20 bb so bars will feel higher than if you've dabbled on other stocks with more bb rise (this is purely a guess that you've only tried higher bb stocks before cause there more popular) and you'll feel more at home with more bb rise cause the geo feels more like a mod, ride it and give it a go before you dick about changing it
  13. long or short GU? what year are they? whats the complete spec? a poor frame with a good set of components will be better than a great frame with poor components..

    Light Or Strong ?

    your limited to kings and pro2s, your right alot of trials stuff is generic gear, but it's a convenience to buy stuff branded as "trials" gear, cause you can expect it to be more suited to the job, makes it a lot easier when things with suitable geometries are laid out for us, instead of needing an extensive knowledge of mtb gear and fanying about hunting for gear.
  15. a line or a spot. and then the trials move can be tagged on if its obvious where the move was done, like i did the debenhams gap in lincoln, haha sounds like tony hawks
  16. ah hem 26"ers have no excuse
  17. my bikes looking a bit tatty, i'm getting a new frame soon and figured since i'll have everything in bits it'd be a good opportunity to spray it a new colour. i plan on having a look in halfords for colours i'm thinking orange frame/forks, green rims. are there any websites for high quality spray paints? i dont mind spending a few quid if i know it's going to last how about prepping my frame/forks/rims? i'm buying a new front rim soon, so i lke the look of the trialtech fluro green, i'll try match my rear rim with spray paint (already done a hash job to make it black) also how are trialtech rims for strength and holding grinds? cheers
  18. echo urban forks are spot on for the price/weight/strength you get them in any flavour of braking option, 2 colours i won't run anything else i see forks as disposable and wouldn't spend more than £100 on them, i know trialtechs are good, but there to dear and they'll still snap yummy 152 grams heavier than the sl's, which is merk all, you could save that in a lighter rim/spokes, i'd rather have less weight in my rims you can usually predict if there gunna go tits up forks will just surprise you one day
  19. clearly you havent seen cls riding a monty

    Light Or Strong ?

    how is a rockman frame strong? there to new to really know about, it's not like the old frames, they are strong cause there still going after 3-4 years of abuse

    Light Or Strong ?

    not necessarily, i can't imagine a hydroxx or sky lasting years, even with just light or intermediate use, what are people calling heavy anyway? i'd be happy with a 2.2kg frame if it had the right features geo and would last. i don't like the current frames on the market to much, i miss the 2006 deng frames, they were brilliant for strength/weight
