Riiiight, so people are gonna travel from Bath/Chelmsford/elsewhere to go to a trials park in Co Durham? Are they bollocks! Sorry to sound negative, but there's no point people signing this for something they aren't gonna visit.
it dosnt really matter aslong as we get the park its the main thing :( ali that is a good idea, we have a section planned in the course where rocks are going to be, it will be rocks of all sizes, and different types put there, to build your oqn sections up with, and there will also will be some set out sections :(

If you want a better brake, just get some good pads and a grind?
no my brake is ok in the dry/light dampness, not running a grind becasue my old pads lasted minutes on it, and i wasnt to impressed with the power of it either, i just want it becasue of wet and muddy conditions so i have a brake :(
-
will it be as good as a maggy on the rear? my current set up, kool stops, brushed rim, bit of tar? :("
-

out of the two i think the 1065 pure will be the most versitile one out of the two but i would probly go for a 1090 control :blink: :ermm:

wow the support on here is amazing the more people the better luck we will have :( :S

i found with my low bar and stem on a stock that i cant manuel as good, (but once its up its ok) as for back wheeling i just have to bump most things over 30inch now. i am going to try my high bars again, but i know for a fact high bars on a short bike, = street machine, but will be terrible for natural terrain on hills, where some times a long wheel base bike with a high stem can feel good. i thinks its all trial and error, and personal perferance :( :S
-
the problem will be though as it will be outside, it will mean some one to look after the admissions, and i dont think the council will be prepared to pay that. any ideas for that ? thanks colly

Seriously, it's the Hope skewer. My friend had that trouble; changed to some cheap crappy one and it worked better. It's the same story for a load of people. Hope skewers are whack!
i dont think they are, put it this way i had more proble with my wheel falling out with a shitmano sqewer lol.
on your frame where the wheel goes it, on the dropouts is all that chewed up? becasue it could be the same as my ddg where the dropouts were worn, instead of being lets say 10mm wide they are 11, meaning the wheel slips to one side all the time, loosen your sqewer and see if you can move your wheel left and right then look in the dropout and see if its moving in there (Y)
