  1. your better off building a bike from scratch, i did worked out alot cheaper, i only paid just over 300 for my t-mag including profile and mono trial disc and so on. you can pic parts up alot cheaper second hand.
  2. bb7 + mountain bike outer and inner + xtr lever had it on the front of my bighit at one point was the best brake ever beats hope m4s and so on, and becasue they are cable they dont leak so you dont thave to faff around with seals and bleeding and so on.
  3. Well, id say the best song for trials videos is alister "some were down in fullerton" that song rocks!!!!! it went so good with one of djs vids i have loved it ever since.
  4. Hello, im proud to say i own a yzf 450f there s**t off a stick. and if any ones says that mx bikes arnt fun there rong (personal opinion) i did also own a honda crf50 that also was a little flying machine did like 45-50 no problem. and never had a problem with it until i fitted a ti exaust which doulbled the horse power and ripped the valved off the tube. great thred!!!
  5. Hello, id would say go for a second hand curtis or leeson, theres always at least one on ebay you could have a look at. my mates got a crutis hes selling it was on ebay about a mouth ago. they look realy smart
  6. Hello, old school t-master!!! bb went forks snapped then frame craked in two places. was a realy nice ride, after that i had a black mumba, now i have gone back to onza. onza rock!!!
  7. this guy knows his stuff, its what im doing
  8. i have my own little way of back wheeling i dont know of eny else who uses the same technique. all as i do is go at the wall or what ever with quite alot of pace hop realy high to back wheel its realy hard how to explain it. i appologise i cant help more
  9. Hello, hope all the way!!! because in the unfortuneate event to damage or brake it you can send it back to them and they will more than likly fix it for free/very little. hope ive helped
  10. Hello, i have done this many of a time, all as you need to do is get an adustable spanner adust it to the size of your disc (its like 2-3mm) and bend it out or in. remember to do around it to thats always a winner. it musnt weaken your rotor that much because i have a mono trial and those discs are renound to snap. dont worrie about the weaknes. hope ive helped.
  11. Sorry if this offends anyone but t-birds must be one of the weakest mods ever apart for missions. but depends on how harsh you are because my mate craked my other mates t-bird with in 10 mins of getting on it. sorry to disapoint.
  12. Hello, i would say a onza t-master (old one) that was my first trials bike i found trials realy easy because they have a very short wheel base. Which means that the frount end comes up easyer.but saying that i had someone who was realy good teachiing me the correct things to do and so on. your better off going with a second hand onza becasue they are cheap and popular, theres generally lots of them on ebay. hope ive helped
  13. Hello, im sorry but i cant see why the colour of a hub determins wether its good in dry or wet or weres out faster.
  14. Hello, I would say that you spend your money wisely, think about what you would like to change on your bike. i would personally go for some new pads (koxx browns on a grind) will result in you having alot more confidence doing gaps and drops etc... also if there is anything that is cheep and you can see braking in the near future. my forks didnt last too long so maybe save for a while too change them. hope ive helped
  15. Hello, rim grinding is where you roughen the braking surface on your rim, resulting in more friction between your pads and your rim, therefore making your brake have better hold. you can do this by grinding the braking surface lightly with a grinder, hold it at a angle so that u dont cut your rim in half. Also keep moving the rim or the grinder so you dont end up with an uneven grind and unlevel braking walls as this might result in your rim being weaker or flexing more. hope ive helped chris.
