its strange that everyone says that they wear quickly
ive had mine for over a year and they look like new
i ran through maxxis tires with 4-6 months for comparison
All depends on the terrain, and type of moves you do, also how often you get out. Mine have hardly worn and I'm gettingnoit 3times a week, I do mainly ride natural though.
Also I'm pretty sure they are the same compound as the original stickys so they shouldnt wear out any quicker.

What's the spec mate? Looks good!

SL's are shite! As said, Try the new try-all or rockmans
-
How did you weigh it out of interest as my bike weighs 8.15kg with some mega light components and it's 20"
-
just to say that not always the dominant foot is the one that will be the one kep forward.
Not always, but pretty much!
-
If your just rolling down a hill which foot is forward?

Spose I Will have to come to make sure Darren behaves himself around the lil girlies at the sea front!

Are you sure? i thought he said they were new.
i see now, thats shit!

I've never liked the feel of the sports, always found them a lil weird feeling.
Dont think you'll got too far wrong with either bar you're choosing from
Agreed, and they are very similar so it wont make much odds which ones you have.
there is a member on here called irish who has a set of them rockmans for sale.

i want advice on bars. Not f**king spacers!
Theyre both in silver, so both of them would look fine
think im gonna go for the rockmans as they have a bit more rise and upsweepits probably not the height that you dont like if you have played with spacer, its the bars it self. i found trialtechs to be too straight if you know what i mean. the more upsweep the better!

Yo, been riding my pure and i love it but the front end feels a little too high. Current setup is a tryall 3d stem (older 127x27 model) TT High rise bars and a 20mm stacker. im gonna change the bars for some lower ones and have narrowed it down to two similar ones. the tryall elite 2011 and rockman 7075 2011. ive ridden a mates pure with the new tryall 3d stem and tryall elite bars with 40mm of stackers and hated it, felt really short. so im now swaying to the rockman bars as i had the old 7046's on quite a few of my many setups
and loved them. anyone got any experience with these? any feedback appreciated Both them bars have lots of upsweep which in my opinion makes them really comfy. On my pure I had the try-all carbons with try-all stem and it felt spot on

Hey Pete!
u wanna check out the bikes at http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/ as everybody says the onza rip up to the onza pro should b good starter bikes, they all have vees and cost from around 297 GBP up to 400 something... im a noob myself ,but ive been checking these bikes out and think they might b just what u want!
Problem with buying new is if you don't like the sport your resale price will be low.

ive started to notice the stock frames getting lighter and lighter ....that maybe ok for some but what about us heavier people who want something beefier?
frames seem to be around 1.6kg on average now, im worried if i purchase a new frame it wont last 2 months...
wheres the 2kg frames gone:(
Lighter doesnt always mean weaker! And you could always buy a Marino if your that worried!

First lap I got a 1 on everyone except the sleeper section, second lap I got a silly dab on the logs, third lap I got a silly dab on the tyres.
-
Thank you lads! Done my first comp on it today, it was perfect.
-
You might get 500 if your lucky as there are some nice bits on there
-
Oooh your the one on the new echo?
Love your bike dude! XD
Really fun trial, thanks to everyone that set out and observed today.
Sections were good fun, got a vit slippery on the cotton reels and logs at the end but thats all part of it
See you lot at the next one!
Cheers mate, I MIGHT actually stick with this one lol.
Was good fun, last section I did was on the tyres, was quite wet bye then.
-
It depends what you practice. I ride their every weekend so when it comes to a comp there I would piss it! The log section looked hard but I did'nt get around to trying it. Shame I could'nt come as I would of liked to think I would of done quite well
Me and Charlie rolls finished on 6, he got the win due to most cleans.
Wasn't too wet, I do think the sections were a bit too easy!
-
That sounds like it's miles too easy!
-
I would say no
. Cannot come tommorow unfortunately but had a play on all the sections todayLet's hope the weatherman is wrong then lol. How did you find them nick?
-
Was Over there today
Gonna be a good comp. No sections in the woods..all on the manmade stuff.
Sections are all super awesome, and the new cotton reel section is sickk.
Unfortunatly not riding tomorrow though, which im gutted about
Has the weather been taken into account when building the sections mate?
-
Gonna be a wet one boys!
