  1. In Plymouth: Cogs near Drakes Circus, Plymouth cycle scene in Mutley.
  2. Psi doesn't weigh anything But yeah, you get lighter weight but the possibility of more pinches... Depends what you want from a tyre, there isn't a 'perfect' tyre that weights nowt, grips everything and doesn't puncture... Swings and roundabouts
  3. Ish... They're not as thick as Maxxis/Michelins which is why their weight is lower. I ride with a bloke who uses one, and he runs a thick green Huchinson tube and has pinched a couple of times running pretty high pressures. They should be fine as long as you take care with them and add a few more psi
  4. Make sure the tpa is wound all the way out when you set up your brake.
  5. Any spokes, light ones. Sapim from Tarty. The main thing is the wheel build, so get that re-done. If you've already lost 10, you may as well do the whole lot or you'll just keep snapping 'em.
  6. I hear you... Any of the small vids i ever make make things look small and such. Oh well... Where abouts in Tunbridge Wells are those Toad rocks? May be interested in a ride during the summer or summat when I'm home.
  7. Not dissing your vid or riding dude, just saying as i've never entered a comp and i'm certainly not sponsored.
  8. How old are you? You seem to be pretty much my standard of riding...

    Q: Why do we call Chicken Chicken, but Pig Pork and Cow Beef? A: Cow meat is called beef from the French Boef, and pig meat pork from the French Porc. If the Frnch ate humans, it'd be called Homme.

    If you get a Magura, then buy Echo CNC clamps, Echo brake pads and upgrade the hosing and new lever blade, it gets expensive. Tart sells the Echo one for £135 (single) and a pair of Maguras for £125... But considering they're new and higher quality its fairly understandable
  11. "Straight edge (also known as sXe, and xXx) refers to a lifestyle, a personal commitment, a philosophy, and a subculture that is closely associated with their brand of hardcore punk music" Sweet, i always sign texts to important people like that. Thats pretty edge.
  12. He should put his own names on them, rather than selling his work off as something its not. If i did something like that, i'd want my own name on it! How are they holding up Ronny? Any strength issues? EDIT: I see the green 'Zoo' has a re-welded brake mount.
  13. Of Montreal Flock of Seagulls, Devo.
  14. The one time we get a f**king earthquake, and I'm in peaceful Devon....
  15. Natural if i can find any...which is not often.

    Quotes!

    'I could eat a knob at night' - Karl Pilkington.
  17. May not work for you (or anyone else on here... I wonder how many have actually OWNED one... ) but it works for me. Oh and some bloke called Graham Wilhelm who is just some top US rider, but i guess he knows less about trials bikes than some people on a forum. Like i say, everyone likes exactly the same things in life so i'd get a Zenith.
  18. I like my Echo Hifi But whatever... Clearly everyone is the same shape, size and has the same riding styles and preferences.
  19. Holy shit, do you have.... Not one, but TWO! King rear hubs?! Glad you took so many pictures of them to show us what they look like. Nice pictures of you riding your bike though. EDIT: Take some links out, and use your King bolt (the green or the blue? which will you choose? the choice would baffle me no end) to keep the tensioner in place.
  20. Not my choice of username, sorry for any offence.
  21. You'd have to get a massive rotor to make it anywhere near a decent trials brake. What i'd do is buy a Hope Mono Trials Caliper and attach it to your existing lever and hose, if you really want a disk.
