Whats your budget?

Yeah man f**k everyone else. Thats the spirit.

Prepare to be at it for ages. Hooks on decent sized vertical walls are haaard. But alos, go as fast as you can, on an inspired it may be easier to bunnyhop into it rather than pedal into it which will allow more speed. Keep your weight over the front.

Stop talking to yourself.

Shame all he does now is suck cocks at parties for $$. Real shame.

True. Seems to be a bit few and far between nowadays though.

Niiicee... Shame that sorta riding doesn't really happen any more.

Fitted the new XT brakes last night, awww yiss.

Some might even say linear slic. :wink2: :wink2: :wink2: (A)

File / sand / whatever the burrs down well before refitting rim tape.

There arn't a billion trials riders in the world.

I had mine for the final half of my final year, but I was in a house with a sorta drive in garden bit I could keep it. Was great to go riding on dartmoor when I should have been studying.

I run a Hope on my trials bike and Shimano XTs on my other bike. Wheres your god now.

Righto.

Just wading into this here... Are you saying Shimano are crap because they make fishing rods?

I will keep it in mind, but the point is I know I won't use it a lot so I didn't spend a bunch of money on it. I used to have an Intense 5.5 with CCDB shock with ti spring and all the other bells and whistles but it was a lot of money to sit in the garage and was over biked for the riding I do.

Very much enjoyed my maiden voyage, brakes and front mech were the only things that let it down, both of which arrived at my desk this morning.

So basically it's not a problem, there is no need to buy a new retention pin, it's just you're a retard and didn't work out that an unbent bit of metal might fall out of a larger diameter hole. Case closed m'lady.

Turns out it's a beaut! Lighter than I wasexpecting, fits pretty well with a long seatpost and is in pretty immaculate nick. Brakes are pretty low on power (160mm front, 140mm rear) but thats about the only thing I can see I'll wanna change soon.

I'm sure they will prove to be a big hit with Margeret and Bryan whilst providing great grip and comfort in the national trust car park.

Yes, I realise this. Believe it or not, this was not the first pair of riding shoes I've ever bought.

I had five tens, got the original terrex solos (with continental rubber) and they were shit, got the stealth soled ones and they are awesome.
