Get zoo forks mate, there super light weight (not as light as my anorexic sister haha).
Up to you but there some of the best forks out there.

Wez does most things right accept the lift, if he just didn't move his feet backwards when he lifts, he wouldn't be going backwards or loosing balance.
I TELL HIM THIS!!

I am always telling him the way to pedal kick, but its the way he pulls up the bike its completly wrong to start off with, the problem is he lifts the bike and his feet are in the wrong possision, one crank is pointing up and one is pointing down, now if he does what i tell him to do and keep the cranks level he won't have this problem.

What forks have you got on that?
He has mission forks on it.

Man, i were waiting for over an hour dude i got there at about quarter to 11, by the time i left it was about quarter past 12 or something. Anyway i were freezin' and there were tramps in the tunnel using drugs, i felt really uncomfortable and some old guy had a go at me on the way home haha, i told the twat to piss off and he started running after me hehe, didn't catch me though.

My cousin was doing it, at the time i was skating so he asked me if i wanted to come out and i said yea ok ill come out.. about 15 mins later i saw his koxx level boss 20" long, i can't remember what i said. Then i see him doing really cool looking shit, i said ive seen a trials bike before and i liked the bikes so i wanted to start but never got the chance because i never really knew the tricks i had only seen a trial hop back then.
Anyway a couple of months later i bought his old onza t-vee, i loved it as soon as it had a rear brake, i couldn't trial hop for over a month untill my cousin asked me to come out again so i did, by this time i was getting fustrated and i couln't find a reason why i wasn't learning. Anyway i see him trial hopping just doing the basics so i thought to myself hmmmm.. Ill try and pretend im him doing the same thing., so i got onto the backwheel (i could only do that at this stage), and just jumped but i had no control nothing really so i fell off and smashed my knee, i got up and tryed it again though and from there i progressed.
I couldn't get proper control of my trial hops for about another month. That would be to this day, and Tom told me i had quiet good control, i was pleased that i am now trial hopping good enough to do a drop.
Well thats what got me started on trials. bit off a life story but i like the information.

Don't like tar
a grind is the way to go. I love it, haha. I have a grind but its wearing away im not really bothered im not going to grind my cousins rim he might get pissed off.
But ill tar it up till its about 3mm thick if i want he might get pissed off with that but its sumthing a scrapper can take off hehe.
Should be doing alot more tomorrow as i trust my brakes alot more, after what Tom did i thought it was going to happen to me, my stupid back brake is shockkin' in the rain.
Rob.
-
Yeah great ride apart from the rain, should be there tomorrow if the weather is not too bad.
(Dam plazmatics) .My brake works amazing now i got sum rim tar on there, its nice an noisy i love it.
Just the way i want it, if its not noisy it sounds like sh*t.
haha.Rob.
-
I put some of that rim tar on it works great, nice and noisy.
Can't be bothered so switch the levers haha, ill do it another time when i kno exactly what im doing.
-
Great ride today dudes, thanks for the rim tar tom.
We definatly riding again tomorrow?
I hope we are, my brake should work a bit better with some of that tar on.
When i got home my rims were black, i was thinking what the hells going on here *pulls out the tissue paper, cleans the rims and the bike* haha.

Thanks man, i couldn't find your email address anywhere it says no information so i couldn't add it.
Could you tell me what your email is over PM or here?
Thanks.
Rob.
-
Well i would have to say i agree with you but i was talking over PM and i even said that i don't think it is a harmful topic and i quiet think its a good idea, so there, you now know the whole story..
I got validated within a day due to decent posts correct spelling and lots of information.
Or it could be because i post.
Rob.

feel free to make your own one if you want.
not forcing anyone to buy one to be honest.
if you write a letter to mbuk you dont get the magazine for free you still have to pay for it dont you?
Hahaha, thats a good one.
Who writes to MBUK though, im sure everyones happy with what they get and your using other peoples pictures for this calender you don't see MBUK using people letters, inless they want them to be using it.

Rob.

Rob.

I always get chavs telling me to do a backflip and jump off a roof, but when i say no they say im sh*t, so i do something (nothing special just a trial hop) and they still say im shit, and they ask me where my seat is.. I reply its up your ass, haha and they say are you calling my mum a cu*t, so i ride away thinking stupid fools, if there wasn't about 50 of them i proberly would have wait till he hit me haha.
I dident want to risk my bike.
Rob.
-
Haha, told you Daxo those brakes are mint, there the ones off the zoo python i think.
Good choice in bike, have fun when you get it and keep us up to date with what your learning and how your feeling about trials.
Rob.
-
Oh its that one, good decision and you got it cheap didn't you?
How much? was it less then £100 because if it was you got a bargain.
Rob.

No problem dude, have you come to a decision on what bike your going to get? or have your got one already?

Do People Ever Do Natural?
in Trials Chat
Posted
Well i have never really tryed natural im 100% street.
I want to ride a bit of natural, the fact that you get everywhere by trials makes it sound amazing and looks good on video, but doesn't it get lonly out there in the wild?
Personally i prefer an audience, had some people watching us all yesterday thinking we were all pros or something haha, thanks to alex, tom, pete, gary, keiran and all the others that were there, it was a great ride.
