    Hi all,

    I picked up the newspaper today(18th nov) which was the SUN, and who did i see on page 18. It was only an article on craig lee scott with a picture of him riding across a road side rail. (Y)

    Cheers joe

    P.s. did anyone else see it?

  3. Starting Trials Back Up

    in Trials Chat

    the main reason i want a car is to get around, including (probably mainly getting to rides) so surely selling the bike to pay for the car is a forking silly thing to do. through my eyes

    my plan was sell the current bike to buy a car then as soon as i brought a car save for a new bike. which is what im doing. If i didn't sell my bike in the first place i wouldnt have the money to buy a car :blink:

    Jeez, the number of people I knew who did that, even when they didn't need a car...

    eBay is usually quite good for Magura spares...

    But i am one of those people who do need a car :S:S

    Try putting this in For-sale/Wanted, you'll probably get more replies

    Also I'm guessing you're after an 18t screw on for the front and a bash to match? Not like a 5arm bash and an 18t rear sprocket?

    i was just enquiring about the cog/bash ans lever not desperate for any. but if someone was to have one laying around and is selling it to let me know. My main reason for the post was just to tell people i was starting back up.

  14. New Ti Mod Frame

    I'm definitely not a fan of gapingly huge drainage holes on the Echo Team/Hifi style headtubes. It leads right into the toptube, probably meaning loads of water and other shit can end up in the BB shell area. :ermm:

    That is very unlikely to happen as the whole is hidden inside another hole so it would be difficult for anything to enter it. Even it water for example did get inside the tube it would just seep out the smaller holes further down the tube near the rear end of the bike.

    O And my oppinion is, I think it looks tacky. Sorry

  15. Advice ?

    Hey guys i have red echo pads on my 4 bolt magura on the front of my bike but they dont hold ! i was wondering if anyone who has a smooth front rim and knows some pads that would be better???

    Cheers,

    Hey there

    Personally if i was you i would grind your rim. Because having a smooth rim in the wet can be (N) .On the otherhand grinding up and using plazmatic pads will give you a greater result.

    Cheers joe (hope this helps you decide)

    Hey everybody

    I was thinking to myself.

    Wouldn't it be good if there was a big ass trials forum ride somewhere in the UK, at a good riding location. This sommer some time when the weather starts to pick up again.

    Like all the riders off forum to all turn up and meet, and have a mint day riding (Y)

    Let me hear your opinion on this please guys. And if it would ever work

    Cheers joe :sleeping:

    But to anwser your question i will rate thsi bike 6/10, 8/10 when you get the koxx

  25. Good Riding Locations

    in Beginners Trials Chat

    Posted · Edited by Joe_Da_Man

    Hello all! :-

    Just a quick post.

    I am sick and tired of riding my local area because there is nothing to do, I think it's because i've done it all :P .

    I've been to a few places like Sheffield/ Nottingham/ Chesterfield/ Derby etc.. Which don't get me wrong were good places to ride. But i'm wanting to expand my travels a little more.

    This is were i need help from you guys. Do you know were are/ are not good places to ride??

    What i'm not wanting to do is go through all the hastle of catching the train and spending money for the train and the riding location being rubbish.

    All comments welcome.

    Cheers joe (Y)
