Whilst I'm definetly a fan of watching Macaskill do anything on a bike that was meaningless, the advice boiled down to 'do a 360'

Haha I had exactly the same reaction. The brief pause before he says 'because it's intensely large' makes it all the funnier. I'm laughing just recalling it! Oh goody, thank you for that interesting insite.

Not worth the wait? Waiting isn't particularly expensive. The first 3 minutes were very enjoyable!

Does anybody remember the crazy freeride video that was up about a yeah and a half to two years ago in which a guy did huge stair gaps with no helmet on. I think he had longish dark hair. I only remember one clip in which he did a stair gap and the bottom of the stairs had a piece of metal arched over which he narrowly missed going under. Thanks for any help

I'm going to be honest, the riding was absolutely incredible but nobody expected anything less! Personally I just didn't feel the passion of your older videos where it seemed you were taking it to the limit, perhaps the chilled out music caused this effect. The other thing was I could not handle seeing every move 3 times albeit from different angles.

How big is that sidehop at 1 minute out of interest? Thought he was going to pedal on it! Phil

What the hell just happened?! Absolutely unbelievable. Watching someone like Watson I can imagine doing it just obviously on a much smaller scale... but that....it's so so beyond and different to anything which people should be capable of acheiving on a bike! Phil H

Thought the riding was sweet. Couldn't have chosen a more horrible song though

Hi Phil,
Just joined so can't get into the for sale forum yet. Can you tell me about the Toxsin please. I am 6'2" so need big bike, but some bikes are described as short or long? What is yours please?
I'm a 40 something motorcycle trials rider (not very good!) looking for something to practice and get fit on, so won't be competing on the cycle. I'm also on the

Trials is far more orientated towards precision, control and methodological movements (NOT to say bmx isn't controlled etc) and therefore seems less extreme. The risk factor in what pro bmx'ers do and what pro trials riders do is incomparable. To an audience precision and control is surely not as desirable as pure adrenaline fuelled risk taking. Perhaps I only see it from this side as a trials rider but I think it's fair to say the risks involved in trials are minimal (presumably as there is a lot of movement from static), maybe this just isn't, for want of a better word, 'sexy'. EDIT: I have never and will never be into bmx'ing but I think it's pretty evident they are on a completely different level. Phil

KHE Collapse is the only chain to have. KMC's are not the way forward. People talk about stiff links in KHE but it's only occasional and doesn't break your shins/face/back/body like regularly snapping KMC does. Phil

Riding was absolutely amazing, so smooth, so huge and sidehops looked crazy. I don't think that could be called TGS though, maybe just GS, or potentially just S
