  1. Theres no buying or selling in new member chat mate Everything you need can be bought from Tartybikes.co.uk. Have a search on here for reviews.
  2. Sidmouth, kinda south of Exeter.
  3. Good stuff Ben, cool to see you're still shredding.
  4. Umm... If you are a harsh rider I wouldn't bother. I'm on a Hole rim and it has 3 cracks in from dodgy wheelbuilds and all out fatigue (about a year old). Its still pretty round and runs true though. I'd definately buy another one.
  5. Where in London are you looking for a joint?
  6. When going to 2, watch you dont land heavily and just fold your wheel in half.
  7. Depends whats going on. For going 180 up stuff you wanna land on your front wheel really, 180 down you wanna go to rear.
  8. That was cool man, some good stuff going down
  9. Which is why (not discounting his amazing riding here, but anyways) Danny Mac's April vid had wide success outside the trials kingdom. It was shot by a BMXer not a trials rider. You look at any sport (surfing, skimboarding, bmx, mtbing, tiddlywinks) and their vids are better filmed with beter footage, better editing, better music, better feel and generally all round more enjoyment.
  10. Senior members get that sweet hookup.
  11. Simps gave you his opinion (in a well written succinct manner) which is what you asked for. If you're convinced it would sell, get one of your contacts to make one, post it up here, show Tartybikes, ask if they want to stock them etc. Don't ask for opinions then get all defensive when someone says they dont think it's gonna be the next big thing.
  12. Personally I'd say you're trying to solve a problem that doesn't exist. I sidehopped to the left for about 5 years with a disk, and cant ever remember thinking I needed a right hand mounted rotor. The past three years I've been sidehopping to my right and my left in equal measures and have still not come across a problem.
  13. Jesus Christ. Ok yeah just get the HS33, more money for Tarty.
  14. Right... HS11 with 4 finger lever blade. No it wont be more powerful than an '05 with long lever, no it wont make you a better rider, no it wont perform better. But if you need a new Maggie then go for a HS11.
  15. The rocks there are pretty good too, worth a ride if you're down that way.
  16. ? Filo isn't the original poster?
  17. Looks good... What Yaabaa was it? Where did it break?

    He wasn't saying you're a chav, he' saying its a fact that lots of young drivers like to use them. Young drivers = higher risk which = higher insurance.
  19. Never actually posted anything in here before but some matey took a photo of me the other day and I'm bored. Gap is slightly up.
  20. For the sake of like £60 I'd say its worth a try, can always punt the brake on if you don't like it. Other advantages; No grinding, good in the wet/mud, makes you seem smoother, dont have to piss about grinding if you get a puncture/new tyre, easy to take wheel out,and good for rolling moves/manuals.
  21. I had it on that rim and hub on a questionable build and it was never as bad as I thought it would be to be honest. I did find it slightly harder on very small (like less than 10cm square) tech pointed rock sections as it was a bit harder to know where your rear wheel was. This is something you'd probably get used to.
