  1. cheers people! gonna look in to them place, me and a few other riders are on about goin on a bit of a rode trip! lol :D does anyone know where the koxx riders practice, i no its in france but i don't know where, its ment to be the best natural trials place in europe, so i really wana go ride it for myself, it sounds mint! :)

  2. If anyones struggling with their confidence levels the best thing to do is were a lid and do some drop-off's. It helps so much. I no some people think wearing a lid makes them feel gay but it will increase your riding because it takes some fear away.

    If anyones got any more ideas for boosting confidence please add them here am sure new riders will want to know.

    cheers

  3. I've always rode stock and always thought mods were easier to ride until the other day when I rode my mates mod...... proper killed my arms! :lol: I'd go for a stock because you don't just have to ride trials, you can make your sytle abit streety :D mini-w

  4. Nice bike as all echos should be but i would consider changing the back wheel as them rims tend to split down the middle, but otherwise it looks good. (Y)

    I'm changing the back wheel to a try-all rim with a hope pro 2 hub because the wheel I am currently using hasn't got a fat enough :D back brake doesn't work to good (N) .... and I was only using my halo because I broke 2 spoke in my mavic D521 with a RB tractor 32 hub :P

  5. I didn't see the point in taking the rotor off because it was only temperary! I've got a set of middleburns that are getting machined down at the moment :D

    What bars are they mate? Bike looks good,the only thing letting it down are the cranks.

    Thanks

    zoo baby!

    Those bars are ddg downhill bars, am currently use some azonic singlewalls which are abit wider but they feel like they flexs to much though!

  6. I wouldn't! (N) Its doesn't look strong at all! I think you would be wasting your money! Just my oppinion though... If your looking for a cheep frame wouldn't ebay be better, you never know you might pick something good up :D mini-w

  7. Hiya :D My name is andy and I've been riding for a few years now but only just started to get good because I'm more committed and I'm trying new moves to improve my riding style. I started riding trials on a GT chucker with a pot on my leg. I soon changed my bike to a onze T-raptor, (I also had the pot removed) I eventually snapped that frame and got myself a planet-x zebdi frame which had been owned by most trials rider in worksop. I also snapped the planet-x and changed that to an echo pure which rides amazing apart from the back brakes doesn't realy work. I learnt the basics of trials myself on a couple of pallets and railway sleepers in my back garden. I go out riding as often as I can with my mates or on my own, most of the people I ride with are about the same ability apart from paddy who makes you :sick: because he improves to quick :lol: . Trials riding isn't as popular as it was when I first started in worksop but I don't realy care because I still enjoy it :lol: cheers for reading :D Andy
