    Mod==>stock

    going stock is a last ditch attempt at making trials exciting if it looses its magic
  2. just put my bike details in, i'm waiting for my offer now, anyone else tried it?
  3. rear disc should be fine on a 24" unless your doing pedal grinds or something. Should make you apear/feel smoother to have a silent rear brake instead of a maggy honking at you...
  4. there gunna be used for food tech in the ghetto schools...
  5. photoshop them into gayporn ??? Profit!
  6. i like wasting thousands of pounds on impractical bikes, if i didn't ride i'd feel dirty every time i browsed tf. I ride for the freinds i've made/make and the fun we have i'm not about the inches, but it's nice for some freindly competition
  7. you could always use vee-to-hs33 mounts, then any vee brake suspension fork will do, but suspension forks don't really suite trialsm and your likely to kill them much faster when you learn gaps to front etc.
  8. i ran an eno for nearly a year (swapped over with another bike) it was flawless, i'm the anal retentive type and i would check over my bike every other friday night before saturdays ride, and then with my eno strip and clean the thing religiously once a month. but i respect thats not everyones idea of fun. if i went back to a ffw, or rear fw eno would be my first choice...
  9. don't try the jumping bit just yet, if you can get on the back wheel, release your brake, stay near enough the same position, and lock it again. the longer you can go with the brake off, in this postion the better. when your comfortable with this, try adding a pedal stroke while the brake is off, if your used to wheelying you'll know to pull you weight back as the bike comes forward, for the first few don't worry about your wheel dropping with the first few, but when you can do several small kicks, rolling the bike, locking the brake, balancing the bike again and repeating, get confident with this, (i've found myself trying to do this more that hopping recently, so it's good to have as a habit, looks smoother and more controlled ) then try pulling the bike up with you each time you kick...
  10. Is that your usual onza mod oversize stem with the silly amount of rise? or have you released a lower one for this? i like it is the disc mount trialsable or just from a catalogue dropout? Before you see this as negative, i'm lookng at buying a new mod, this has made my list, if only it wasn't £150 more than the atomz..

    My 06 python, Swapped it for; Koxx level-boss. then tarty had these half price Then i went dual disc... sprayed it, added middleburns and some other bits, and it now looks like Quick spec BB7 brakes Pro2 hubs King headset 'Burns with cloud 9 bash still can't ride for shit though
  16. i vote fight to the death... wheres the circus when threads need him the most?
  17. yaabaa, disc and magura mounts i'd guess it'll probably take the knocks better too.
  18. buy a grinder, give your rims the love and attention they deserve...
  19. ogre

    you owe me money

  20. tentioning a mod like that is f**king spot on i hated horizontal drop outs on my zoo, drove me barmy. i'm seriously considering buying one if i earn enough over summer it fits a nice niche in the trials market, assuming the hubs are sealed bearings and the bars are nice and wide. whats the width tarty? and what happned to those sexy atomz cranks with the jazzy patern?
  21. to my knowledge theres normal headsets, internal and the big f**k off DH ones you get in mission prodigys, which i know it isn't cause my mate had a ti.. trials uk suggests that ti's run an internal, if all else fails, ring tarty
