  1. Awsome vid mate.....as said,some super smooth riding and an awsome video Makes me want to go ride now lol
  2. Lol.....nah....she wants me to go out riding.....just when ever i organise one.....everyone cancels Yeah....the only reason i can't make it is because i have work that day......and will be shattered cus we got a huge sale on......Yaay...LOL defo another time though
  3. to be honest mate.....i havnt been out on a proper ride in about 7 months!!!! so everything is slowly being forgotten Won't be able to make this sat.....maybe one after though
  4. Yeah....i remember him So how comes like one minute there's no-one but me and a few others riding trials.......and now ther's like a whole community
  5. Well bugga me.......there are loads of trials riders in braintree.......how comes when i'm out on a ride......i see none of you I'm the one with the Echo control with white try-all rims.........i'm the one who used to have the blue koxx caisso frame I ride with a few others, one who has a levelboss 26", one with a saracen mad 2.6 and another with an old skool diamondback frame Dudes.....we all gotta meet up in the next couple of months.......my bikes going soon.....and wanna go out on a proper ride If you don't know me.......talk to Blair.......he does
  6. Graffics Give them a try, a few people have dealt with them in the past and all has gone well, could be worth a try
  7. I normaly use a hammer and screwdriver for mine
  8. Zoo! pads on monty brake spray.......now thats what i call a noise
  9. Any one know where you can get one of these made up, or where i can get one from? thanks Ben
  10. It's a Vario Styx, super nice bike imo, i was going to buy one but when i got round to doing it none were available. I have ridden one, had king on the rear etc, and it rode sooo nice, back end is flickable(depending on what size it is) Ben
  11. I'd like to know this too Where bout in essex you from?
  12. Get one!! For a beginners hub right up to being pro, i think it's safe to say that everyone, at some point in their trials life, has had one...or 2....or 3 I've had mine for a year and a half now, and the only thing that needed fixing on it, was a spring, which i would recommend upgrading, later on in it's life. I love mine, despite it skipping a few times, it has been an all round perfect investment, and for only £75, it's a bargain And about the flanges, I've had absolutly no troubles with mine and the hub runs like it were new, super smooth If you do go for one, buy the steel hub one, yeah it's slightly heavier, but it'll last longer too.......and it's cheaper If you have that spare bit of cash, go ahead and buy the pro II trials hub, from what i've heard they are pretty amazing, despite a tiny few mishaps. The only difference i know of between the mono and the XC, is that the XC is disc compatible. All the insides are the same. Correct me if i'm wrong Hope this helps Ben
  13. PM'd you a few days back, and had no reply
  14. I'd say yeah it's worth tha much, but when it comes down to selling it, i'd say he'd just about get £500 - £600 Have you got any pics??
  15. Hey mate, Yeah this is possible, do exactly as 'leedstrials' says and all will go well. I had to do this on my cassette as the chainline was well off and now have a pyramid formation cassette, works perfect though I have heard of a company who do make carbon cassette's, so you can run single speed, save weight and still be able to participate in comps, but cant remember for the life of me the name of the company Think they were quite pricey too Ben
  16. That's going to be one nice bike when all built Frame's mint Lovin the colour too Can't wait to see it built Ben
  17. Looks more of a monty to me Does look a bit suspect i must say
  18. I had one of the older models, the T1, and i must say, despite all the hate of them on here, i did enjoy it over the 4 months i had it. I had to change a few things to suit my needs, longer/higher rise stem and a decent set of bars, but after all this, i learnt so much more than i previously had on my old saracen mad. Everything so much easier on that bike to any other. Might have just been me who liked the bike, but i'd say go for it, if you can get it cheap enough Ben
  19. Well i must admit, as simple as it looks, i kind of like that, might have to be my first mod As soon as any one knows the geo.........let us know Price aswell
  20. WOW That is f****** lovly, i thought the headset may look kinda weird with the whole top headtube being flat, bt that looks amazing........... ....Me thinks my Caisso will have to go.........and be replaced with one of them How you finding the short c/s? And whats the overall w/b? (me being short, this kinda thing matters ) Ben
  21. Thats the one i've got, and i still can't get it to fit properly, the spacing is not wide enough
  22. hey you mate I'd definatly go for the Giro Havoc, best helmet i've had, they're so comfortable and light. I've had mine for just over 2 years and it's still going perfectly strong, few minor scuffs here and there, but thats it. Think you can pick up an 03' one off of CRC for like 30 quid, which is a bargain Ben
  23. hey mate, I'm in the exact same situation, i've had a hope mono for ages now, and it's not performing nearly aswel as it should. I'm more convinced into getting the pro2, as i've heard many stories of kings completely fookin up and not even engaging at all, at least with the hope you know your going to get excellent customer service, and they will service it for you for like 15 quid Hope this helps Ben
  24. Ahhhhhhhhhh....................ok then mate Cheers for that And why is it that only the try-all booster will fit the Koxx Caisso frame, i've been trying for the last hour to fit an echo 4 bolt to it without any luck what so ever
