      Rear Hub Spacing Standards on New Frames

      By craigjames · Posted

      I did think about this, my only issue is you don't see many pole vaulters landing with their poles. What I mean is you'd need to be able to dampen that springy energy whenever you landed a move to rear wheel to stop you getting bucked off. It might be possible, but does make things more complicated.

      Getting on a bike

      By basstrials · Posted

      Hi there,a bit strange question maybe but how do you get on a bike on uneven or flat ground in order to trackstanding?What exactly do you do to stay in desired position without or little movement?Both brakes or not?What foot positioning? Correction hops? Any tips would help. Have a nice time.

      Rear Hub Spacing Standards on New Frames

      By Ali C · Posted

      I disagree, I think there’s still some big changes that could happen…I can imagine carbon frames designed with some built in vertical flex that acts like a spring. I currently see trials as pole vaulting with a completely stiff pole, imagine how high you could jump if the bike could be slightly preloaded and then unleashed, like a more specifically designed tyre preload.   i do agree that all brands using 135mm hubs would be nice though!

      Films!?

      By alexmark · Posted

      I love to watch films in my free time but due to my pending assignments I couldn't manage my time, it's been so long that I have not watched any movie/film but recently I found Nerdpapers they helped me a lot in completing my pending assignments now I can manage my time and can watch new films in my free time. By the Way my fav genre in films are action films like Mission Impossible, Extraction, Flash, The Batman.

      Rear Hub Spacing Standards on New Frames

      By craigjames · Posted

      Rear rims have followed a fairly similar design for quite a while now. So unless something crazy and new comes along, I don't see that changing. Stick to 135mm it works for all different sized wheels, one size is cheaper for bike and component manufacturers, it also opens up the choice in aftermarket hubs. I think from a design and materials point of view, that we've reached peak trials bike, it will just be incremental improvements. Maybe more parts produced by additive manufacturing using exotic materials?
