smelly joe

im using 16/18:12 i think ( on a mod) perfect for me...feels just right

i have got onza sticky finger tyres and i hate them, they have got no grip at all. i would go for the maxxis creepy crawlers, there relativily cheap compared to the try all's and monty's and they have damn good grip!!

to my knowledge CLS has just started university so im gonna hazard a guess and say that he is still riding but not as much due to his commitment to is university courses. EDIT: ooops, didnt see the post by biff saying that hes gone to uni

i dont own a x-box or a ps2...i spend most of my time riding so i dont have the need for them.......would love to get a psp though (Y)

deffonatly buy from tarty bikes. ordered my rear hub from them and was qiuck and easy to send payment. payed late night on a wednesday and hub came and on a saturday, there was a qucik note apolegising(cant spell) for the very slight delay which didnt bother me one bit.....very good service from them indeed :lol: trials shop (Y)

saw him do them all last night....was really good....well done to him!!

some great pictures there, that gap that peter from sweeden did was huge! and the pic of ollie being tagged as part of team 'buy all' is really funny

the brum ride was really fun!!! i dont have any photos but when adam comes across this he should put some up. did anyone see beau's gap.......ouch!!........crappy viz rims! and if ur wondering i was the kid on the bog standard t-pro (Y)

thanks for all the useful replies, i think i am going to grind my rims an use kool stops for now with a dab of tar on my rim, and ill take up your offer of the heatsinks ross (Y) many thanks

it does look damn ugly but i think it works pretty well and i see no reason for you to change your front brake. your hope suits your zoo and the feel of the brake and lever is much nicer than that of the avid

yup, he did have to take me to hospital because i split the back of my head open and had to have it glued together, also i had a rather nasty concusion for a good few days. now i wouldent go riding without my helmet, it gives me so much more confidence.

the problem i have is that i just use tar, and with the wet weather setting in tar is becoming useless. also i do not have the money to spend on a new set of pads to use on a grind. these posts are quite varied and making me doubt what to do. i would also like to know why do good pads cost so much if there only a small peice or rubber??

i am going to grind my rims but cannot afford any new pads to use on them. i was wondering if using cool stop pads on a ground would be any good, or should i wait until i have the money before to get new pads before i grind them. ive been told by some people that cool stops are ok to use but others have said they are rubbish. thanks for any help

i used to ride without a helmet and found out the hard way what it can do to your head if you dont. i ended up in hospital with a spilt open head and a serious concusion!, now i would never go out riding without my helmet and i would rather pay more for a better one knowing that it will keep my head safer.

when you say side hop do you mean side hoping across gaps or side hoping up walls and stuff?? but i dont think i can think of any videos that mite be able to help you <_<

ive learnt this by watching other riders and copying them and i found i had the same problem to start with. all you need to do is pull up a little higher and harder and it should give you more time to whip the back end round ^_^

for side hopping over gaps and stuff i generally throw my front wheel in the direction that i want to hop and then i throw my weight the same direction with the back end of my bike being last to levae the ground. i then land on my front wheel and sort of whip my back wheel across. wen ding it it looks a bit like snaking my bike across a gap if that makes any sense <_<

my friend kickflipbs had woodman t-pro frame and it took him 2 months before it snapped, just to let you know it cracked through around the welds where the seatstays join, also snapped striaght through on the bit of the chainstay near the b/b shell, he was pissed off because it costed so much and lasted such little time, also he wrote to woodman as well as emailed them telling them of the faults and he has had no reply off them <_<

i had a x-ray before i got my mad :) i eneded up with having three of them through faults and i also snapped the forks on one of them :) . and ive still got the last pne i had!!! but its been taken apart and the frame has just been left to rust away round the side of my house.....u never know one day it mite come in handy (Y)

sorry to sound like a downer (Y) but from my past experiences with saracen trials bikes and frames, i would simply buy a new bike, mine managed to snap and i couldent afford a new frame!! :)

i noticed a small crack in it from just general riding I.e gaps, drops, a bit of street. but it finally completly snapped through when i was riding natural in malvern, i was still able to ride it until i got home and took my wheel out when the whole seatstay fell away. i was a bit gutted at the time because i could not afford a new frame :) ....but now ive got a t-pro just like everyone else (Y)

i was wondering who else has managed to snap theres and if they did where did it snap?? with mine the whole dropout and seatstay fell off. i

hi nice to meet you.....jus like to say i started out on a mad....it was a gd bike until it snapped on me:(
