  1. Thanks for your replies people :)

    Good to know what everybody thinks, as it is my first video......

    So i will go with some mellower(sp) music in my next video.. I'm already quite a bit better now, so will get some more footage with better lighting in the 'trials barn'.

    Thanks

    Jon

  2. My first video :) Started riding a bit after the Bikeshow, so 8 months really. Video shows me at 6 months worth of riding up to now at 8 months worth of riding. I put most of this video together when i was a new member, but didn't get many replies so i thought i'll put a bit of new footage in and post it on here.

    Hope you all like it and please comment once downloaded.

    p.s. My hub only has 16 ep :lol:

  3. Unfortunately i couldn't swap the forks as the steerer wasn't long enough, half the height of my stem. Will look into getting the new Echo Control forks. Can't wait for the new Hope Pro 2 Trials hub to be out, cause from what i've heard they seem very good through testing and they come with an awesome guarante thingy.

    Thanks for the help. (Y)

  4. My dad had basically given me his old camcorder which he never used. There was no software that i know of that came with it. I have a USB and also i Firewire (i.Link) port with cables, but once connected it recognises the camera, but does not show any footage etc. :sleeping:

    So to get video's onto my computer will i need to get some software, to buy or download even? Or is there anything else i could do to get the video's to transfer?

    Any advice please, cause then i can bring out a video :D

    p.s. It's a Sony Digital 8 camcorder (DCR-TRV245E) if that helps

    Thanks Jon

  5. I was doing a drop my my mate's dog ran out, luckily he saw this happening, and as i was lowering the front wheel, the dog got saved although on landing my handlebar my mate on the head LOL. And when i went to backhop 5 pallets i didn't get the height and managed to commando roll over the pallet to my feet.

  6. Just wondering whether anybody knows an exact date when the new Hope Pro 2 Trials hubs are gonna be out? Also are there different options to this hub, as i think in another post there was like a normal cassette style hub, a single speed one, and a cassette hub with a fixed sprocket (like the echo ones which have buggered up :( )

    And i have been offered to swap my Onza Lite Guy forks for some nice Echo Urban's. Does anybody know the length of these forks compared to Lite Guy's, and would this be a good swap :- (no money included with the deal)?

    Any advice please

  7. Hi.My mates got one and they ride realy nice. I would say that the rim would fit fine, but i'm not too sure about fitting a 2.5" tire, as my mate's 2.4" just fits. The one downside about the frame is how much the chainstays flex through braking, although you get this with alot of frames there is quite a bit of flex in this frame and a booster would help alot.

    Hope this has helped (Y)
