Only use magura blood in maguras.... I no you'll get repliles saying "use water it's great" but don't... the best stuff to use is magura blood thats it..

If the lever is still slow after all the lubeing, test one thing... empty the master cylinder and remover the hose, dial back the tba to the start, then pull the lever and release, if it's still slow (ie: if the blade comes back and piston stays in cylinder) then more than likely you have ovaled the boar in cylinder and there's nothing you can do.. sorry i've seen this a few times and done it my self. It's from if you have fallen off and hit the lever body..

Always got the car close by with a full tool kit and spares Cake........there always room for cake

I liked it when i was called an urban terrorist by old coot I like the fact we can't be pigeon holed, because what we do is so random yet focused like we use every surface and terrain and we borrow allot from bmx..

I had the same problem, try other helmets, i ended up useing a BELL, it fits good and thats all thet matters..

Just start on small stuff and work your way up concentrate on the basics like balanceing, kicking to back wheel and turning on the front and back wheels, all of which can be done using lines on the floor, then go from there..

Not bad at all.. The skill comes in going the other way keep it up and you'll be there in no time..

HERE HERE!!!!!!!! + I've just been upgraded to a member.. what have i done that you haven't O'yer posted..... sorry that was mean...... if you want to be a member just get in and chat... that what we're here for..

It's just a 360 spin off.. Not one thing but big moves in comps when it's wet.. like when they put a big gap or drop and you don't know if you'll grip then there's pressure!!!!

Cracked and snaped 3 rockets fab pro trials- cracked at head tube and disc mounts (while testing) -2 in street 1 in comp Pace trials- snaped seat stay at disc!! only took 3 weeks.. -on street Gt tequesta- snaped chain stay at drop out -street (The only 2, 13" in the contry) specilized m2 s-works- snaped chain stays at bb clean off!! -1 on street -1 in demo :$ Mates gt mod- cracked (not quite snaped) down tube at head tube, not my falt -street Azonic ds1- snaped seat stay at brake lug.. -in comp

Same here, my racelineD's were £300 and then i had to by boosters!!! but the old kits did come with a standard evo fitting kits as well as qr's, black, grey, green frog and cool stop pads (set of 4 of each) and spare olives (i had 5 in mine) There cheap now because every other rider uses them Back when i got mine i only saw about 6 other pairs in 2 years...... can you do that now????

Yes i think the bitchiness is a bit sad at times and i know that if they were stood in front of me they wouldn't have the balls to say anything, but that's the nature of the internet!!!! I've only been on the forum for 2 weeks and posted over 50 times, you've only posted 9 and most of them are about bollocks....

Be nice i tort you better than that.......... if we were on it might be better!! but everyone has to start somewhere.. It's a good start but keep going, and put sh#t loads of good riding pics on... if you need help? just ask

As i've been a mechanic for 12 years and fitted, serviced, fitted and owned more maguras that you've had hot dinners, and i've had the pleasure of flushing all sorts of sh#t out of them from water to engine oil. It's really simple, and i hate to repeat my self but maguras are designed to work on magura blood!!!!! it's not a gimmic to make money, it's not a con, it's fact!! it's what keeps them working sweet.. If you own a hope disc put water in that and see wat happens!!!!!

All you need is a chain whip and some guff... Or and old chain and a vice.. rap chain round cog, clamp the chain in the vice, and turn. don't forget the cog comes off anticlockwise!! don't saw it, as you might catch the threads and f#ck the hub

Just wanted to see what stupid questions people have been asked when out riding? and what do you respond to them? examples: Q "How do you do that thing where you bike goes goes up there" A "magic" A "How do you sit down" Q "Well i start by aiming my arse at a chair or good ledge" Q "Does it hurt when you fall off" A "No i'm a member of a special club were by when i fall off a magic fairy comes and catchs me or if there not there in time they nurse my wound and i feel alot better" or "not when i'm this high on pcp"

It,s easy just say "trials is a sport where by you take ones bike and try to ride it over any obstacle that befall ones path, ie: be it a wall, rock, tree, bench or car" If they still don't get it kill that person so they they don't have a chance to pollute the gene pool any more ps: say that you have never heard of football.. that always gets a good response try and get them to explain that, and look all puzzled and say " that sound like a big waste of time, hope they don't charge to watch that"

My good friend chris had a nipple piercing till he was driving his car topless

Don't use msn i have e-mail : dab01@cwctv.net, next to that you have my number call me!!

I've always rode expert at local trials and national but i quit doing comp 2 years ago as all the fun went I almost went pro but never broke out because i wanted to have fun and had no start up backing to get to comps and win. but i did get lots of free sh#t from some small sponsors. When i ride now i'm doing it for fun and to push my self, like trying manifesto and i spend time teaching people that want to learn, new moves and tricks, and helping people that need parts and bikes fixed to get or keep them riding. I still do small demos when ever i can for fun. I've entered about 40 comps and done over 70 demos so far.

Who really gives a sh#t It's what ever you prefer, or how you ride.. my votes hydro, rim or disc.. cables can (and do) brake or fail when used in harsh off road conditions + v-brakes rattle Ps: don't use water in maguras

Caged pedals if your doing off road (as cages like to grip to rocks and logs ect)or UCI style street, V8 style if you like beating the crap out off them on street only.. A good pair of shoes can help to
