  1. woops, had a slight outburst there :$
  2. corse there is, what if you kept snapping your plaggy ones ey, then what? i tell you what, you catch a bus down to the zoo and catch yourself a monkey
  3. Sounds good how come they offered you the prototype? did you just ring them randomly and say DO US A FRAME MATE
  4. Another vote for V8's ive had cage pedals and they just dont provide enough grip for trials, they bend easily and they dont last. V8's on the other hand last ages are grippy, plus for £25 you cant go wrong
  5. i noticed my chest moving today i was like but it was ok, i was just breathing very poor topic dude
  6. I liked that alot very funky slightly strange choice of music, but its all good
  7. i run 20-25 psi and i ride street, i would be tempted to have it quite high, for taps etc but just in general its not nice to rim out
  8. i love those 26inch GU so sexy, never seen a crappy one my only issue is that better not be a 2 bolt mount on the front, i god dam hate those things they never seem to work how you want them to
  9. Will be there probably , was planning on coming anyway Hull is the place to be, plus you get to see a legend in action, me oh yeah and the other guy
  10. well personally i dont think there is that much difference in two inches of bar but i would say if your a big guy then go wider but its just personal choice, i think the zoo bar width is perfect not to long, not too short
  11. I wish i had seen this review i few months ago, ar well to late now blew all my money
  12. What ever you do dont let the school find your placement i got stuck in spectrum electrical which was so unbelievably boring i literally stood around all day, and all i learnt from it was how to knock up a television stand in under ten seconds
  13. good god, you need to wash that out dude it looks quite nasty
  14. for a good example of sidehops to front check out stan shaws style
  15. Haha you make me laugh, quick edit this and delete it before anyone sees it, then read the rules
  16. as the title says, personally i think that the front wheel first technique is kind of cheating because it seems to be easy compared to going to both, when i first started sidehopping i have to confess i went to front but im making the leap to both wheels its alot scarier but i think its worth it. not to say that going to front first makes you crap but i think it should almost be classed as a different move . what do you lot think?
  17. why do you keep making topics saying "i crashed today " i mean this is trials forum its likely everybody on here is in a bad way which is no big shock considering what we do all day. if you ever hope to be validated i would think before you post again
  18. i like it alot very nice pimpidge i dont like the idea of having craig lee scott on the side though, i bet loads of people just wouldnt get it and think its your name, handy if you are cls though
  19. just bought myself some zoo bars in green they look the biz and are extremely light lets see how the handle once theyare on my bike
  20. to be honest its not a good idea to buy a trials bike that you intend to use for a number of purposes, it just ends up being very expensive and not working particularly well for anything your better off buying a trials bike then going to market and buying a dodgy bike for a tenner to blast to school on
  21. i find it helps me alot if i turn the bars slightly towards the direction that i want to sidehop plus even though its seriously hard i would learn to go away from the foot you have forward, and try to learn to land on both wheels because the ones where you front wheel it and then pivot on suck its just plain cheating
  22. man youve got balls :cool2: all i can say is
  23. if i were u id bang a bit of hair spray on their, not to much but the right amount can get your grips to stick like a thing that sticks really good
  24. good god don't get lock ons unless you actually want to die they come loose when you put alot of pressure on them i.e. gapping, drops, trials in general. also because the screws use 2.5mm alan keys you cant tighten them up at all without rounding off your alan keys or the actual screw
