  3. Thanks for all the comments!! The vees are ace. Tried everything (Mono trial, BB7, maggys...) and the vees are the best. I ordered some heatsink red pad material to try out, but proceeded to leave it in the jiffy bag on the bus . Just ordering some more...
  4. Yeah, ride spot #1 - the stonemasons/angry bus drivers hangout. That stuff on the left of the picture. Theres about 100 square feet of it
  5. Glad select isn't closing. Why are you on the trials-uk team page if you've got nothing to do with them?! I don't gerrit. Can't wait for new vid
  6. I'm thinking black... Got all the time in the world to make my mind up though.

  9. Yeah, don't buy plazmatic sprockets. I managed to snap 2 in the space of about a month and i ride like a little girl. Edit: Non drilled ones should be fine though
  10. oops... Going to post mine up tomorrow. Its not new though.
  11. Nicest bike I've seen to date. Hate rear disk though.
  12. Well me and a few mates will be there at 11.19 Lets have a race.
  13. Well done Porter. Place your bets now as to how long the frames going to last him. I reckon 3-4 months. (Judging by the state of his Ozonys )
  14. Q: How can you really say riding 20" was a waste of 2 years? A: Because i achieved nothing, i was mentally rubbish and compared to my improvement speed on a stock, i might as well have had no arms or legs riding a mod. A: Craig Lee Scott rides a mod sooo nice and Dave Q: No, CLS hardly rides anymore and who the hell is 'Dave'? A: You cant just say hes going to waste his time on a mod because your not him. Q: Did I say he was going to waste his time? No. I said I did.
  15. Don't buy a giant, unless you mean the NEW NEW ones that aren't available in the UK yet. Waaay to old school and naff. Don't buy a mod either. I used to ride a mod, started on one etc. Biggest waste of 2 years ever. Since I went stock I've improved about 10 times faster. Get a stock, somebody made the valid point that there are practically no amazing mod riders. This must tell us something? Get a stock.
  16. You should only use the tiniest amounts. Spin wheel (fast) on 0.5 second squirt (or less) on each side. 1 can will last you aaaages, or until it starts getting all clogged up and stuck to itself.
  17. Looks lovely. Is anything not new?! When I got mine I kept saying to myself 'be careful, don't twat it on anything...' went out on it, almost brushed it on this tiny wall - great big dent - f**k. Mega nice though. I spy the little 'black echo forks only' sticker creeping onto your silver forks! Edit: Just encase my retarded way of making my point about the forks confused you...
  18. Only if you believe the bbc, who is something like 30% accurate. Metcheck.com
