Any ideas where Boon might have got the paint from? Or did curtis spray it themselves? Cheers
-

rathergoodpie replied to atephoald's topic in Trials Chat
Yeah he said he doesn't have one any more. Thought he was going to steal mine at one point! Props to Fatmike for the photo -
Good call on Avenir, nice typeface that, particularly the uppercase.

Lets do the happy dance. With singing.

lol As I said, probably not what you intended, but thats how you were coming across. Apologies if I got your back up.

C'mon, dictionary definitions? Seriously?

...Or perhaps I was being Ironic Anyways, just saying seemed a little ott reading your posts thats all, you know exactly what I mean. Actually quite like the design. You are writing on a forum! How can you say I'm being nosey! Kinda misses the point of a forum. Nuff beef anyway, was just pointing out an observation.

No offence, but with every post of yours I read in this thread you are becoming more and more pretentious. Stop trying to impress people with your knowledge of typography because I for one can see right through it. He just wants a logo doing not a f**king essay on the pros and cons of post-modernist swiss letterforms.

Awesome vid, although of all the Limp Bizkit tracks - c'mon! Loving the sidehop 90 degree thing, and the sidehops over the barriers without any hops that was smooth as hell. You know its ridiculous, because stuff always looks smaller on film than in real life... and none of that was small! Rob

Cannondale Ashton Signature Edition Frameset

That was his old frame but just re-sprayed I think. But yeah, the one that he rode had custom geo different to the production bike. I think Lance Trappe rode a slightly different geo bike too. -

Cannondale Ashton Signature Edition Frameset
rathergoodpie replied to atephoald's topic in Trials Chat
Some of those are listed in my above post but heres a quick list... Headset - I think it was a WTB headset Stem - not sure, possibly CODA Bar - Azonic Double wall / Pyramid Grips - CODA Seatpost - CODA Saddle - Volvo Cannondale / CODA custom. (very rare!) he did use a Selle Italia Flite seat on later models though Bottom Bracket - Unsure, probably shimano Chainset - CODA running with SRAM gripshift / mech Wheels - Mavic D521 (possibly ceramic) on Hope XC/Mono with IRC KUJO tyres (radially laced front wheel) Brakes - Magura raceline yellow with custom booster (the one without the holes which was slightly wider) Bashguard Filthy ard guard (think Leon on here has a black one for sale) If I think of anything else I'll give you a shout. Hop this helps. I obviously spent too long gazing at the pages of MBUK when I was younger. Rob -
Cannondale Ashton Signature Edition Frameset
rathergoodpie replied to atephoald's topic in Trials Chat
Built up this little gem a couple of years ago. Good luck coming across one of those volvo Cannondale seats, they are mega rare! This build has the original Coda grips too. I'll do some sizing up when I get a chance and get you info on the bb etc. Unfortunately I sold the blue Fatty forks it came with and have probably been promptly re-sprayed (they don't match a lot of new trials frames!) I think the groupset on Ashton's original was all sram with coda cranks if IIRC. Im running the azonic double wall bars too, pretty sure thats correct. Will get some better pics soon. Also the wheels are mavic d521's on hope mono hubs (pretty sure this is what Ashton used to run) I think he used IRC Kujos as his tyre choice. I rekon ebay is your best bet for most stuff. -
I'm running one of these in 36 hole on the rear and its a great mix of strength and lightness. Bit pricey though. http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?product_id=10449&category_id=43 Rob

Is It Me Or The Public Perception Of Trials Getting Better
rathergoodpie replied to Matt Vandart's topic in Trials Chat
+1 Well said that man -

Ok props to you Mark, I stole your gag. my bad! Bizarrely enough "combine" would be a much better name as the 24 is a combination of the two (26 / 20) maybe the name got lost in translation? And it has added bonus agricultural reference which we all love.
-
Gota similar setup on mine too on the advice of Stan and Ali - good call boys, good call. These onza stems with the high rise trialtech bars are really nice.

Ha Ha, Hmm Bigman is sponsored by rockman and I'm guessing the name MUST have been something to do with him! bloody Tractor ha genius Rob

Looks cool that, loving the pixelated effect.

Yeah don't bother with these frames they ride like shit. Stupidly low bb. If you are looking for an old skool trials frame go for an old giant or Ashton replica, mabe a pace frame if you can find one. Theres always the old zebidis too.
