  1. hey guys thanks for all of the replys.

    at the moment i am riding a gu typhoon and i was looking for a steel street bike. something like a leeson or curtis style.

    it would be nice to be able to ride some natural trials on it aswell

    cheers nick

  2. i have had my mono mini for a while and the bore cap came loose one day and pretty much all of the oil pissed out of it, i tightened it and rebled it but it still leak's :angry:

    i have a feeling it is most probably the seal behind the bore cap but im not sure.

    has anyone else had this problem.

    cheers nick

  3. Yeah its rides amazing, on the back wheel i dont think you could get any better, you dont get much flex on the rear brake. i run a front freewheel on it and it works really nicely.

    I cant really think of any down points apart from when you run single speed the chain is quite close to the chain stay

    cheers nick

  4. why dont you check it out on tarty then, the new lever looks really mint

    Description

    - NEW updated Mono Trial brake from Hope!

    - Completely revised lever is now stiffer than before, and has a more rounded lever blade which is much more finger-friendly!

    - New colour scheme for 2007 too, now with silver lever and caliper body, with black lever blade, top cap and bore caps.

    - New rotors also have more arms and a deeper braking surface for increased stifness and braking power.

    - Upgraded\' hydraulic piston ratios gives 54% more mechanical advantage and thus far more power than any standard disc brake featuring a similar sized rotor.

    - 180mm rotor offers even more power than the standard 160mm rotor version, and therefore recommended for stock (26\" wheel) bikes.

    - Large venting holes helps keep the rotor cool and prevent the pads from glazing over and causing a reduction in brake power/performance.

    - Fitted as standard with stainless steel braided hosing to help prevent hoses becoming kinked or pulled out of the lever/caliper whilst riding/crashing!

    - International Standard (IS) caliper and 6-bolt rotor means the system is compatible with most disc hubs and frames/forks on the market (if you are unsure, please contact us for advice).

    - Right hand lever supplied as standard, but can be fitted with a left hand lever. Please enquire for details.

    - Weight 444g including full length hose and, all mounting hardware.

    cheers nick

  5. i first wanted to start trials when i was about 15 when i saw a load of blokes hoping around in the quarrie i didnt no what trials was then so i was like wow!!

  6. It rides really nice when your on the back wheel, gaps really easy and taps are good to do to, the only thing is it\'s abit of a bugger when you try to bunny hop on it because of the long stem.

    once i get the pink frontwheel i will put up new pictures.

    cheers for the replys its nice to no people like the look of my bike

    cheers nick

  11. yeah i use an echo hifi stem on my GU typhoon and it is really good, i think it maybe the lower one but still it is really nice side hops and taps are nice too.

    wait untill you have the stem to see what it rides like and if you dont like it then im sure the people you have bought it off of will let yuou tarde in for a lower version
