  1. lee mill quarry up near Rochdale/Burnley (when its finnished) hopfully the biggest trials park in Europe! (and the world?)
    Hey Ali-C, they´re building one trials park in the UK? have pics, please?

    until now the biggest trials park in the world it´s in Catalunia, Spain.

    cheers.

  2. every youtube vid is downloadable! just get the firefox extension "download helper" it works great and gives you loads of trials and porn :P
    There´s another easier way to keep the vids:

    clic this link:

    http://keepvid.com/

    paste the video link on th space, just clic donwload, go to the donw left side on the page and donwload it, put the ".FLV" extension, then your media player will run it.

  3. Hi everyone.

    Does anyone knows where I can find the old totaltrials video?

    The video I want there´s one guy riding on an silver Echo ES2 I think and the song it´s "Like a Stone" from Audioslave, the video have some zooms in all the time too...

    Thanx in advance. :rolleyes:

  4. Hi all there.

    well, i know that Neil it´s from your country but i´d like to share this wit you all.

    Neil tunnicliffe gave one exclusive interview for www.biketrialbrasil.com and he it´s an cool guy. very atentious. check the english version.

    Thanks Neil.

    Neil Tunnicliffe-BIKETRIALBRASIL INTERVIEW

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Interview with Neil Tunnicliffe-

    "Flying with Trials Inpirations".

    BTB-Hi Neil, I´m glad to make this questions for you, this will help a lot many

    riders that like your riding.

    BTB-How many hours do you practice per day?

    NT-I don't ride everyday but when i do

    ride its about 6hours a day. At weekends I normally stop out longer!

    Sometimes at the weekend I can be out filming for up to 14hours.

    BTB-Have you some specials exercises for improve your skills/technics on bike, or just practice?

    NT-Quite a few people ask me if I go to the gym but i dont do

    any special exeercises. I just spend all my time practicing on my bike. The

    more time your on the bike the better! practice makes perfect.

    BTB-Watching your videos seems that you looks an "fearless man" but we know

    isn´t that, so what your biggest fear when riding?

    NT-The biggest fear when i'm

    on the bike is probably the drop gaps! When I see a drop gap and think to my self 'yeah i'll do that' I normally get up there and it looks alot more

    scary! I'm quite scared of getting hurt when I land. But what makes me go

    for it is the buzz afterwards. Its a great feeling when you have made it and

    look back and think Ive done it!

    BTB-The trials bikes geometry it´s very special, you think that could be some way to built the bikes better or it´s perfect?

    NT-The bikes these days I think

    have reached there best geomotry. I think the ADAMANT frames are perfect

    frames for all round purpose. Me and Deng have been talking about the 2008

    ADAMANT frames and hes also got an idea on his mind which sounds very very

    good for all his brands. So all keep an eye out.

    BTB-Have you rode in somewhere prohibited? You´ve been advertised? tell us some experience.

    NT-Don't think I have ridden anywhere prohibited.

    BTB-In your opinion, what the best way to make the trial sport more knowed? I

    would think to make trials a lot bigger would be too put trials in more

    magazines. I think making trials videos on the internet is also pretty good.

    Also maybe more websites. Hopefully trials does get a lot bigger.

    BTB-Have you thought to practice Mototrials too or only biketrials?

    NT-I do actually practice mototrials at the moment but at a very poor level as I have only just started to practice! I really enjoy mototrials as well.

    BTB-In" ZOO! 31" we can see you hiting your face against one telephone cabin, did you got hurted?

    NT-Lucky enough I managed to turn my face to the side and

    smacked the corner of my helmet on the telephone box. So I was very lucky

    really. I would like to go back thought and do it properly someday soon.

    BTB-Why don´t you get into competition?

    NT-I like competition but I just enjoy

    street a lot more and feels like im improving everyday riding street. I

    will enter some soon.

    BTB-Why we can´t see you and Craig lee scott riding together?

    NT-As far as I know craig quit riding a bit ago and only just started to ride again. But I suppose we could do a video together. We never really thought about it.

    BTB-What do you think about trials scene today?

    NT-Trials scene today is getting strange. I think a lot of people want sponsors these days but having a sponsor ant always that good. Also its getting pushed forward with new moves and bigger moves witch is good.

    BTB-Any advise for those starting into trials or advanced riders to improve the techinques?

    NT-For the people that have just started all i can say really is

    just practice, watch videos to help you improve on the moves also try and

    have your own style. Having your own style is good.

    BTB-Thank you very much, we enjoy your riding style, and you will be welcome in

    Brazil when you come here.

    NT-Thanks!

  8. Hi all guys.

    Here´s one pic from one big event, the international two wheels show in Brazil.

    i´ve took some pics from CRIS SANTOS, MARCIO RODRIGUES, ROBSON LIMA and PEDRO TEJADA.

    Enjoy!

    FOTOSCANON302.jpg

    Robson and me:

    Cris bike Brisa B26D (i´ve told to him to buy some frame from Echo but...he will.:

    FOTOSCANON302.jpg

    Me riding the cris santos bike, i don´t like the geometry though, the front it´s very heavy, looks one rubber from the front wheel o the ground pulling the front. cause the bb it´s very low and long chainstays. but the rest it´s very sweet like avid ultimate dual disc brakes, chris king rear hub...:

  9. hi all.

    i hope you like my simple riding stile, nothing huge but funny with sure.

    i´m training to improve more tecnique, now i´m working in front moves and sidehops, in sidehop i can up 1070 mm, today i´ll get some practice.

    this vid it´s from last weekend, in this season in brazil it´s very warm weather, about 35 degrees, clean sky but very warm though.

    the song it´s from street fighter ryu´s stage video game played by other band.

    comments will be fine.

  10. Well Thomas, i think better and you´re right.

    i don´t know if you acept my excuses.

    in true, i was very happy that day cause i´ve talked with the factory boss and he loved my idea.

    sorry for get you wrong though.

    you always been my favourite rider, i enjoyed all of your advises, tutos and coolest videos ever and i have a lot of your pics here.

    really i should study english.

    i never been in english school before.

    i just like english.

    i hope that we can be friends after this.

    if not, i understand you.

    in peace now? (Y) ?

    sorry, dude, cause in brasil it´s so hard to follow this amazing sport...

    i´ve sended one MP, but it´s better to write this in public.

  11. "weather" (if you do produce 1,000,000 or if you produce 1). i wouldnt worry too much buddy.

    if you asked me too, i would say similar, cro-mo/steel frames are old skool news which are proven not to be as strong as aluminium. obviously this is each to their own. i have designed and ridden my own custom cro-mo frames in the past

    you need to be very careful if you make 50 frames and you sell 40 and all 40 break you may find yourself in a loose loose situation, hence why buying a frame that is "D & T"'d (design and tested) that it is put to near breaking point. for example:

    we sell marin bikes at the shop i work in and manage. they are tested far more painfully than most bike companies put theirs through, riding the bikes is one stage but putting them to literal "breaking" point is another.

    i wouldnt worry about what TRA has said, you can take it as advise or you can take it as critism he is only saying to you what he knows from experience. weather you listen or not is totally your choice buddy. dont be offended by it though (Y):)

    Waynio...........................

    Ok, thanx again.

    i´ll keep your advise.

    i´ll test the frames first, i have knowed trials geometry about 5 years, the frames will be produced carefully, looking for possible crack points.

    so let´s forgo about tra.

    i just want some tips like you said to me. your opinion was an good opinion.

    i´m not offended by you. you knows to advise.

  12. at the end of the day it is your decision what you may do. weather you produce 1,000,000 frames or weather you make 1.

    Thomas is a nice guy, helps alot of people, and he helped me alot 2/3 years ago when he came to england, if you are judging a person from an MSN conversation i dont think this is the way you should do it. have you ever met thomas? you were inspired by his riding and his advice, until this.

    think of it this way TRA is a very popular person, his attitude and riding style has got him to where he is today, and to be perfectly honest he is one of the best and most down to earth trials riders around.

    He may be pissed off with so many people on MSN asking him the same old question and getting on his nerves. dont take it to heart, at the end of the day your a human being and what you do, is what you do not what someone else has advised you to do.

    Waynio...................................

    thank you waynio for your opinion, maybe you´re right.

    but there´s a lot of riders asking me a lot os the same things all the time and i never blame them though.

    he it´s one of my best rider in all my 9 years into trials.

    this made me very sad about this fact.

    he called my frames shitty and weak...this was an insult to me. i´m trying to help others guys to get in trials sport and tra blame me... it´s not right. i asked just one opinion from him. and our chat lasts only 1 minute.

    please, what you mean "weather" above? it´s like raining/sunny weather? (example).

  13. Those 0's make no odds because of where the point is, it should be 2.3kg or 2300grms. Which is quite heavy >_< I like the designs but i won't be buying one anytime soon.
    hey the zoo pitbull it´s 2,13 kgs...it´s aluminus those frames it´s steel...sorry about the 0000....here it´s a litlle different.

    i´ve talked with one frame factory boss here today, i´ll start to produce that frames too. but mine will have better quality and better welds, 4 dedicated brake mounts....about 40 USD...soon.

  14. Hi all.

    Today i´ve talked with the steel frame factory boss in my city about my projects and he it´s very interested.

    I´ve talked with the boss from steel frame factory in my city about my projects and he it´s very interested.

    I´ll build frames with 4 dedicated brakes mounts or vees, best quality mig welds and with great painting quality too. The frames will be made in the frames factory, they have all tools for it.

    I´ve asked to an guy by msn his opinion about i start to make cheapy steel frames for those that starting on trials and in special for those that don´t have enough money to buy one aluminum frame though.

    But this guy said that don´t give me any suggest and said to continue makin SHITTY and WEAK frames and blame me.

    This made me very sad. i can´t believe that i´m listening that.

    Why don´t one guy can´t help one starting on trials? He thinking that he´s better than everybody just for his riding style? or ´cause he´s sponsored by koxx? or it´s very easy to find trials parts in his location...

    That guy was my favourite rider till now really, but now he´s an sucker and useless man in the world that don´t want help no one...

    That "touch hop tutorial" and others? Was to promove himself, not for help nobody now i can see it´s was for all idolatrate him.

    Who is that guy?

    THOMAS REMVIK ASSEN

    Before: My favourite rider

    Now: Just an sucker and useless faggot.

    And TRA, i hope that you won´t need help in all your frusted life.

    Ir if you need i´l be here to help you FOR FREE!

    TRA?

    I do prefere others like , Felix Muckle, NT, CLS, James porter, Kyle hinchcliffe, RUSH, Toyota, Dave Tarty and others very cool guysthat can talk with me like a man e not like a frusted adult...

    For others, sorry my english, i never study english before, just like english.

  15. everything from koxx and try all it´s shit.

    the Koxx top model parts:

    koxx forks: just an poor tubes welded.

    koxx crankset: 6061 forged.

    koxx FW: loose balls inside and not cnc machined.

    Echo top model parts:

    Echo forks:cnc machined crown for more strenght and rigidity and steerer with 8mm tickeness.

    Echo crankset: 7075 precision machined cnc for strenght.

    Echo FW: sealed bearing, steel heat treated chrome machined cnc. 2mm at right for better chainring line.

    Echo frames it´s stronger than Koxx.

    So it´s proved, Echo it´s better and cost less than koxx.

  16. here some our pics...

    was a nice day to ride.

    in brazil it´s always sunny weather, sometime cloudy skies but...it´s good.

    with our handmade bikes we can ride very funny.

    i hope you enjoy the pics, sorry the without helmet pics.

    must to wear an helmet!!!always.

    cheers...
