Rarrrbish lol

not bad i suppose, need more range of moves and places.

I'd lose the effects from the video because that terrible camera gets worse when you add them.

you out today lad?

[Sidehop - 3 Pictures]

looks like about 41"

nice though.

double the height of the wheel, its 47"

i do it almost to two wheels but i normally do it front wheel. its hard with the setup i have.

its a viz logic stem 160 x 25deg. and i have 1 1/2" of spacers under it. my bar heights about 43". but i am 6'2". its taken me a few stems to get something like the feel i want and that seems to be the one thats like.

i am not sidehop mad, more of a natural guy so the bike is set up for natural.

cheers for the comments though glad you like em.

comments welcome if you like

i rode the competition the other sunday in keighley and heard a few riders complaining of arm pump. i no that hurts and is highly annoying.

i had a pair of handle bars lying around with the levers on them. i was just messing with them. and thought of adding resistance to them. thus there is the finished product.

would be cool if i could get the idea patented and what have you, because i no a lot of trials riders would really appreciate it. even the motor bike trials riders.

thanks for the comments, thought it would be of use

I use 22-19 for my Base TA26. It feels nice for pedal strokes and hopping.

hi all

i was playing around in the garage and have come up with something to make your fingers stronger.

i hurt my hand a while back and lost my grip on the handle bars. this would improve brake control and also your grip on the bike.

here is what i have come up with. It consists of an old pair of handle bars, 2 brake levers, 2 short bits of brake cable and 2 fairly robust springs to add resistance.

the springs are clamped in place with a bolt on to the cable.

here's some pictures of it:
