  1. That happened to me twice in a row literally in a row really got on my tats i've just had it rebleed and it hasn't happened since but if it happens again i'm going to get a brake booster because both times it happened it was right where a booster would have protected it. but if you need to protect the rest of the cable your only option really is to buy a braided hose pricey but effective, think its about £25 for them to put it on plus it will need rebleeding so thats another tenner
  2. If i where you i would get yourself a zoo python or a GU typhoon, they both look super lush plus im thinking of getting one of their big brothers
  3. those are the worst grips ive ever used, not only are they uncomfortable but i actually got friction burns from them because there so smooth. i couldnt even ride for more than 2 hours because of the pain, but now ive switched to tryall grips and its a god send no more burns. obviously i still get callists but thats something you cant avoid
  4. first its riding not ridding secondly i dont reckon that your to old, but its gonna hurt more when you fall and take you longer to learn and youd stick out like a sore thumb but check out martin ashton for old guys plus youd look pimpin when your mates see you
  5. id just choose the medium price one then youll probs get good value and performance
  6. what would you know your only sponsored by ashton ar but seriously your looking for different stuff from most riders, seems like your a 24inch street dude in denial
  7. oh poor lanky, not sure how comfy his bike will be , well spare a thought for the short arses that physcially will never be able to achieve the same stuff as taller people . but in answer to your question CRAIG LEE SCOTT
  8. nice replies so far , anyone else got some experience with a GU
  9. yeah i think you hit the nail on the head, last time i checked they didnt use the proper magura backings thats why i just went for a per of frankly sick plazmatics :bow:
  10. you should be able to use any liquid i think (stop me if i'm talking crap ), as far as i know if it does corrode your seals it takes a long time anyway but apart from that check whats in the oil and dont do anything stupid
  11. ive got a ronnie and ive had a few what you might call heavy landings but shes still going strong, more worried about my hub these days (hope mono)
  12. why did u even post? , isnt it obvious that he wants a second opinion. btw i think you should go for silver the flag colour of trials, also you wont see those annoying scratches as much on a silver frame
  13. i wouldnt even consider making my own when im getting ready to go for something that i am scared of the last thing i want to worried about is whether the brake pad will hold together theres no point in hurting yourself badly for the sake of £15
  14. i know what you mean, whenever i have access to the net i head straight for the forum and i keep checking it every 5 or 10 min sometimes i just know there wont be anything new but i check anyway
  15. i think it sweet nice to see one that doesnt follow the trend , but guys wheres the pink pythons at
  16. What do we think to the 26inch GU, iknow i like the looks but how does it handle? , because im still trying to decide which frame to go for adamant a1, pitbull, gu and a couple of others. actually i havent really narrowed it down at all in about 4 months but i really like the look of the 26inch GU, this could be the one people!
  17. i dont know if im spazzing out or what but i find it really difficult to understand what the hell your on about edit: i was spazzing out its all become clear now
  18. i measured my head and its in the middleish of the universal fit so i reckon it will be alright
  19. Plazmatics are the best by miles, ive just switched to them and i noticed an immediate improvement on my old pads before these had even worn in, who needs a grind when youve got these and a little bit of tar
  20. you forgot to mention what improvements you have got in mind
  21. im after a helmet to protect my melon but as usual im on a budget but ive seen the giro indicator for 25 squid , so has anyone else used one of these and how was it?
  22. well u must have what we in the game call rhino skin but normal people develop calasts which get sore
  23. gusset bastards kill really bad, really hard grip and pattern on it kills. personnally i would go for try all rubber grips or dmr zip grips if you get dmr grips go for flange the word rocks the house Good god DONT get onza stock grips, they burn
