2009 Meta. Nothing original really except frame. Soon to add Hope front brake and new Trialtech stem. TT cranks, White Industry FFW, FSA downhill BB, Echo hubs and TT rims, Premium pedals, TT high risers, currently running BB7, 203 rotor with XTR lever, HS33 with LGM & TNN backings. Bike is perfect for a fat ass like me and soon to be 50 years old.

Very nice, just out of interest did you go for those grips for the colour or as they're similar pattern to motorbike grips?

I had them on both my mod and stock for both reasons but recently swapped to some Rockman foam grips and cannot recommend the change highly enough!

Correct sir, the Echo grips are similar to Domino I run on my Gas Gas. I'm going to try TryAll lock on's tomorrow, mainly to make removing brakes and headset stuff easier and they seem pretty firm. Thought about foam grips but they would last a week with my newbie death grip.

Thought as much, I had a pair of Inspired lock ons but found due to my newb death grip at the time they just spun round when I half pedalled stuff, though that could be down to the fact I didn't dare overtighten them for fear of snapping or rounding off the small bolts!

Here is my pride and Joy!!! not too keen on the funky graphics and the front viz pads (although they have got better). But I love it. All parts from Tarty as they are only a few miles away.

Bike pics threads every 2 seconds = annoying.

New sticky for bike pics = rad.

Post your bike pics in here <img src="http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumbsupanim.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="(Y)" border="0" alt="thumbsupanim.gif" /> Try and keep comments to a minimum. It's unlikely you'll get validated for going "Nice bike" or whatever, and it gets annoying getting like 2 bike per page, but 23 replies or whatever, so yeah - pics and a comment if you've actually got something worthwhile to say about them <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

No "Real" members post in here - you've got your own place...

Let threadage commence!
