  1. A longer hose shouldn’t relay reduce the power of the break. Maybe if you re-bled it making shore there is no air in the system or try and bath bleed it maybe that will make a difference. How harsh is your grind? Maybe you should consider buying new pads plazzys if it is a sharp grind or Zoo! Pads if it is a light grind. Hope This Helps John
  2. I learnt to ride a bike on my sisters Barbie bike . Which I destroyed ramming into curbs for some reason (I was a crazy child) My first trials bike was a t-bird whoop whoop Now I have a high spec t-pro and upgrading more on it soon. John

  6. I started trials because I thought I would be different because there are so many bmxers and skaters in are town, not that there is anything wrong with them sports I just dont relay enjoy doing them as much as trials (mainly because I was not very good at them). Also I saw a couple of other riders going about and I thought hey why not give that ago so then I bought a t-bird and I was off!

  12. I use grind and tar works a treat. But when the rim gets to smudged with the tar/ to much tar on it I like to clean my rim with white spirit and then reapply the tar seems to work better somehow. Thanks John
  13. http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/forum/index....&hl=mod_man You shud know better. but that crank thing was rather funny lol
  14. I find keeping my knees bent with my arms straight works best. If you watch videos this will help a bit and watch there body position when they perform gaps etc this helped me to get the jist on how to do them.
  15. That was a nice vid man . Nice editing to cant wait for the next one
  16. I am quite considering a BB7 now. Can any body tell me the good points and the bad points about them. Also it would be good for people to say what they would rather have Hope or a BB7. Thanks John
