    Grips

    cant stand trialtech foam grips halfords for sure
  2. 4 options in my opinion....front vee: cheap, insane power with a grind, barely any modulation.... avid bb7: loads of power good modulation, fairly expensive ( 2nd hand about £30 for a full setup) hop mono trial: expensive, bags of power and modulation;front magura: cheap, easy loads of bits, nooo modulation well, thats personal opinion ^^ but id say go for rear magura...and a bb7, was pleasanlty suprised by mine, loads of power and i can stoppie it really well
  3. come on kids leave it out now
  4. oooh when? er for me its style AND smoothness
  5. haha, would say that that was openly admitting there was a different compund....but i dont fancy the arguement that'll come with that statement
  6. ill be out either day.... i think kierans got himself an xtp 2
  7. yeee keep the 18t front freewheel..adn just change the rear cogs if needed
  8. they just dont provide enough hold.....inteh same way that a hope mono mini doesnt or an m4
  9. welll....they do, just not as much as a normal cable, and theyre smoother as well well....they do compress , just not as much as a normal cable outer, and theyre smoother as well
  10. im excited about this now...weather dependant, ill be there with about 5 people in tow
  11. brilliant brakes...if they're coupled with 160+ rotors, linear slic cables, well set up...uncontaminated pads and some decent levers (sd7, xtr etc ) they can be amazing brakes
  12. 3 choices in my opinion....... front bb7 with sd7 / xtr lever..... hope mono trial...... or......front magura on a grind
  13. its so when you lift off the pedals, the pedals stay in the right position for your foot its am oring that rubs against the pedal body i think....
  14. it was...have a looksy at my video Mine xtp comes to mind.... drilling holes in stems and cranks yep, conti and schwalbe are back in apparently
  15. theres the onza zoot ( near identical geo to the inspired ) the leeson...or a marino bikes frame? Theyre good...but a bit of a fad i reckon, people will soon realise you can do streety trials on a short-ish stock
  16. a keyboard, sprayed in washing up liquid....then blended for 20mins should do the job nicely
  17. yeh not high enough for shit...normal risers maybe azonic doublewalls?
  18. er remove your old brake bolts, put shims, then the booster on top of the calipers..replace with longer bolts supplied.... Then tension the side screws until they hit the edge of the bolts. Fully tighten the caliper bolts
  19. why cook......why? yeh man,should be if the weathers all good ill bring that stuff in for shure
  20. monty ti's extended to 29" sorted.....
  21. citroen clutch fluid...same stuff as magura royal blood...
  22. i think mines around 10.5 with my tank cranks on it..... hm, considering a set of conti's to go with it.....
