Nice video. Really neat and controlled.
1:35 was a beasty tap
-
Yeah seems sound mate, plus the M.A.D bikes have a nice geo too as well if i remember correctly.
As said you could keep v-brakes because if they're set up properly they're just as good as if not better than maggies.

Velcro
Or I'd invest the 50p in Trivial Pursuit. Keerching

There's a thread floating around here somewhere called 'Ultimate trials build' or something like that. This Is It. Its so horrendous which makes it so full of win

Looks swish. makes me want a 24 that little more now.
And on the subject of brakeless, ive done it briefly before christmas, I found it was challenging yet fun and then when i put the brakes back on i felt more able than before.
I've just taken the brakes back off again due to massive failure in both front and back brakes, and i really want to go have a proper session. plus i think the bike looks cleaner brakeless.
P.S. Mark I've used your tensioner idea, works a treat needed a few mods for use with a cassette hub but it works beautifully. Cheers

Insulating tape. If you've got none of the above, and your not a tart.

Thanks mate ! The walls n high street are awesome, a really good gap there.
Yeah that was what i had in mind
I been told that if you side hop the "wrong" way your pedal can hit the wall but that makes no sense at all hah ! I wont be buying another freewheel as i just got my tensile 40 click which is pretty good. If i wil get anything i'll probs buy the 108 click tensile.

I think its also to do with being easier tuck right into the bike but that's just for gays anyways so

Good video mate.
I really want to ride those walls in Dunstable high street.
Don't worry bout the sidehopping the 'wrong' way thing, me and my mate dan (dan6061) both do it and it doesn't hinder sidehops much. just look at Neil Tunnicliffe he can sidehop 8 pallets the 'wrong' way.
and also if you were going to by a 108 freewheel get the echo sl, much better value for money.

ive had my chest and shoulder bone done, chest is weird, whereas the shoulder bone is excruciating!
+1 Spine felt tingly though
This is almost a year old now though, looking to get my next one done soon.
-
Yeah, i kinda liked it. You obviously have sidehops dialled.
Though, I'll be the first to say "wear your helmet" think how badly that last bail could have gone
Keep it up, just next time have a bit more variation in your video
-
A day or two, depending on conditions(temp, coat thickness etc)

Bacon and ice cream
deeeeeelish -
Isn't that the 116mm model?
Running smaller gears isn't a a problem at all so long as you've got descent chain wrap from your tensioner, I run 15:12 gearing with no problems on my stock.
I would personally go for 16:14
-
I take it that it's for the Zhi?
Try the Maxxis Larsen TT or the DMR moto digger both have a lower tread pattern.
-
I ride stock i swapped my zoo ages ago , ah so is the roholoff best for the money ? is it like the chris king of tensioners out there?
Yeah, but it wont skip
+1 to the rohloff
-
Well if it did get put in the olympics it would probably be are only garenteed Gold lol.
I doubt it haha
I mean we've got some bloody good riders but i doubt it would be guaranteed gold, the euro boys have the comp scene pretty dialled at the mo.
But trials in the olympics would be cool.

I was on tartybikes looking at videos and came across this one and instantley I thought wow this guy is amazing. I had never heard of him before this. I think its amazing how he can do this stuff so easily, I mean compared to him I am terrible. He is 20 years old and is amazing. So inspiring. Anyway here it is Damon Watson also known as D unit or D wats.
Pure Class
As said that was ages ago.
If you havent already, then check this out Clicky click

Also, if the tag is embedded into the frame, if you brake that frame you would have to go through all the hassle of re-registering a new tag.
I know this doesnt apply to everyone but some people change frames every 6 months or so.
Plus what would you have to do if you brought a tagged frame, how much of a hardship would it be to change the name?, and what would the implications be if you didn't?

Paint
I did have an armordillo but i soon took it off cos it was ugly and i dont really mind if i dented the downtube.
The armordilllo done its job well but it weren't really my thing.
-
Haha love it.
"Show him the guns!"
-
Not sure about 'bike check area' but at the top of the page is the sticky called 'bike pic thread'
-
Whooooaaa that's beyond bodged haha. Good effort
Did you do that to both sides in the end cos i don't quite understand why that had to be done.
I once had to bodge my Middleburns when the threads that held the cog on stripped. So I drilled through the bash where all the holes where and nut and bolted it, i kinda made the same mistake you did by not double checking before i attacked it with the Black & Decker and ended up drilling out part of the crank
-
Me and my mates were on about an Oxford ride soon, I'll show them this topic and see what they think!
In bigstyle.

I really like it. Looks really good.
Not sure how the status features gonna work out though. as said it'll just turn into the new 'just got in and drunk thread' haha
