Captain Scarlet Posted August 7, 2010 Report Share Posted August 7, 2010 (edited) Well I think this may be it, this short video showing the same stuff I've ridden for the past year pretty much sums up my infrequent riding. I work a lot now, have barely anybody to ride with and hardly anywhere to ride. This is pretty much the opposite situation to what it was when I started trials. This video has been sitting in editing for the majority of this year, it was mainly filmed on tripod on my own, and I didn't think I would get the chance to get more footage for it, so rendered it as it was. Vimeo Video -> Original Video It's been nearly 4 years, but many good times! Edited August 7, 2010 by Captain Scarlet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maladie Posted August 7, 2010 Report Share Posted August 7, 2010 That was a neat video mate, not really my favourite style of riding but anyhow, it was cool Can i ask what freewheel are you using? Because i'm gonna' be replacing my Tensile very soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muel Posted August 7, 2010 Report Share Posted August 7, 2010 The end vids are so, so very gay... Same for me though dude! We joined up 15 days apart by the looks of it, so it must be coming up to 4 years for me too. Sold all my nice bikes now, just got my £80 Koxx.

matt.price Posted August 7, 2010 Report Share Posted August 7, 2010 im gutted mate. id love to see more of your style and riding Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Scarlet Posted August 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 Thanks for the comments guys. I'm running Plazmatic CRV's on my front vee brake, and heatsink yellows in CNC backings rear. The front brake is gash, worked awesome on my old Echo urban wheel, but as you can see in the gap to front, I get a lot of slip. The Heatsinks are a lot better, a bit of slip but it's just technique really. I'm still keeping my bike but it's just if I ever do ride it again, I might make another video come a year or two, but it depends on the circumstances I suppose, until then.... Peace out.

ellingtj Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 Don't worry about not being able to ride much - just get out when you can, trust me after a few minutes you'll be back up to speed. Sometimes it's 2-3 months between rides for me but I still love it when I get out. Tim - 14 years of biketrials and still loving it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maladie Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 Tensile 96 click. Really need to take it apart and service all the grease out of it at one point. Tah, and really?
