I really like it, looks very unique. If only everyone did something like that to their bikes, that way trials would be a much more colourful place
-
I really liked it, the riding was awesome especially the guys on the montys. Although i have got to admit he does look a bit cramped, but he can flick the bike around so i guess there is reasoning for it. I think both the songs are by placebo.

About 5 minutes before you made this topic, i had a look at the link to your videos in your signature and watched this But yeah, i like the video the sidehops were good, and so was the editing. Blimey your brake is loud

I had an email a few weeks ago, it was something on the lines of that. It was meant to be from barclays bank and pretty much said the same thing, and told me to go to a website which it linked to then type my details in to check if the account had been used by other people. Even though i'm only 14 and don't even have a bank account with them, so i'm guessing it was just one of them emails that scam people by getting their details Kind of worried me though, i don't know why

Danny Macaskill: Some Short Clips From Extended Family Dvd
A!! replied to brainchild's topic in Videos
Yowza that looks good. How the hell someone can land so smooth fakie from a massive tree ride is beyond me -
I find the best thing to do is to just let them grow. It will hurt in the short term, but just try to ride through it. Riding with no gloves always seems to work for me if i want to toughen the skin on my hands up pretty quickly. Just don't pick them off, only do that if you get a layer of dead skin on top, otherwise you are just picking the harder layers of skin off, leaving the softer ones. I was told that soaking your hands in water helps, which it did seem to make them hurt less, but i ended up with a big water blister under one of them, so i wouldn't advise it. While we are on the subject, does anyone ever get cracks forming under your nails where they join to your skin. I always seem to tear them and it is really painful, especially when i'm out on my bike.

If there was a reason for me moving to stock (not that i have), this bike would be it. The frame looks awesome, nevermind the complete from tarty, it has to be one of the nicest bikes i have seen in a while. I love the way you can buy a bottle of mbk touch up paint for it, for the perfectionists amongst us

I think that pretty much sums it up for me. I don't have a problem with other people being gay. But as i'm not gay i can't really understand how one guy can have feelings like that for another, but even so i don't have a problem with it as i'm not going to label something bad or wrong because i don't understand it, as i'm not in that situation if you see what i mean. Like the saying goes: "whatever floats your boat"

The last 2 pairs of pads i have used have been the koxx bloxx, which i do really like as they have a good amount of bite, a good wear rate and work well in pretty much any conditions. This is providing you know how to set up a pad nice and flat against a rim (which i'm sure most can). I'm a bit of a slacker with rim grinds as well so they have been used on a very light grind, but they still worked well. The only thing i didn't like from them was i found that they lacked hold as they seemed to slip a fair bit on me. But last week i got some new rock pads, and they look the shizzle. I haven't had a chance to use them yet as i'm still waiting for my wheel build from tarty, which is a bit of a shame but it can't be helped. Anyway back on track, the pads have a lot of material so they should last a while, and the material itself feels fairly soft and sticky, so it's all good. But hopefully i will have my wheel sometime this week, and then i can give the rock pads a real go

Holy sh**, that is the best video i have seen in a long time, absolutely awesome. Damn he's got some power
-
That was awesome, editing was great, songs were nice and the riding was minto I love the style that Ali has, the way he goes big but makes everything look smooth and easy, and the spin tricks he adds in.
-
I was always taught teasing people is bad Get it built up, and post some pictures
-
Hmmm suppose it is a pretty good party trick. But have you seen the state that guy is in, i mean with all the crazy tattoos on him, like the wonky smiley face on his shoulder, where it was drawn whilst he was driving a car over a 4x4 off road track, just stupid in my opinion Although knowing his mentality he won't regret it when he is older.
-
Very good pictures, looks like there were some good sections going down The way you have put not spaces in between the pictures makes the picture of the drop on the lorry trailer look like it is suspended on trees with a massive drop
-
Yeah that game rules. It is one of them games that once you start you have to finish it even though its really long, i completed the rom a few weeks ago just so i could say that i had completed it, it was like one of them things i have to do before i die just for piece of mind. I first got the game on n64 when i was about 6 and never completed it and sold the n64, but finally i have done it Strange i know, but a well

Cheers for all the replies. I ordered the pads and hose splitter from tarty earlier so they should be here on tuesday. I'm looking forward to putting them on, especially the pads as they seem to be very good from what you have said
-
It is new pad time, and i have an old pair of brown koxx bloxx i found that i have cut grooves into, but they don't have much life left in them. So instead of fiddling about to put the old pads on for a short amount of time, i want to buy some new ones instead. I noticed these on tarty and just wondering if anyone has used them or knows what the performance is like: Rock blue pads The second thing is i'm thinking of getting one of the monty hose splitters as i keep bending and snapping the magura hose. So as a solution i might get one to stop me from messing it up and they look nice and tidy as well. Are they easy to install and bleed once they are on? For anyone that doesn't know what i'm on about: Hose splitter

I did realise the jar bit, but i was wondering if there was anything else to soften the blow of the strange person who buys it and realises that they didn't actually get someones soul
-
That bit made me giggle. No doubt there will be bids on this, just out of interest what would be sent to the winning bidder?

Is he a courier? It should all be ok, they usually just send out a courier with the sticky label thing which you put on the box and let them take it away to microsoft. So it shouldn't be dodgy as microsoft arrange for it to be picked up by a courier, or at least they did with me.
-
when i sent mine off what i did was ring up microsoft, they asked all the questions about it, then got my address and sent out a sticker thing to put on the box that i'm going to send my xbox in. But they also arranged for a courier to come pick it up. The reason they say to put it in a box that isn't the one it came is so that no one really knows whats in it, and so that the couriers don't try steal it or anyone else that comes into contact with it, which is unlikely. But they say it to cover them selfs more than anything. You say the man just turned up at your house with it fixed, do you mean came to collect it?
-
Ye i would say the browns as well, the last two pair of pads i have used have been these. They work awesome in any weather and give a good stopping power. If you enjoy having loud brakes as well (as i know some do) they are pretty loud. Last couple of days i have used them in wet weather and can't notice much different when they are in the wet and dry, so it's all good. I have cut grooves out in an old pair to see if that helps when i run them in wet weather, so i will probably be putting them on soon.
-
Ye it is exactly what i think. It's the way you suddenly come to a stop on the front (where most would roll it on the front), then you get the back tyre on. Looks strange but really nice

Hahaha true, but it is done in the true t-f stlyeeee Just to make it clear, i obviously wasn't being serious when i said this, but fair enough....
