The Official T-pro Guild Members List
Captain Scarlet replied to Captain Scarlet's topic in Trials Chat
As I am soon to change my T-Pro frame, I will no longer be a current member of the Guild and can therefore no longer be head. That means Fat Pants as Deputy will take the position of Head, so he shall edit his post everytime a new member comes along. =D Also saves me the hassle of doing it. -
Well I fitted my chain today, a nice black KHE collapse to go with everything else black, and my cranks came today, so I'll take a new picture tommorow when I fit them. I got a phone call this morning from someone who was interested in buying my old T-Vee, so if I can shift that I've got my new frame sorted. Only bad thing is that I have ordered some Shin Digs from an Onza distributor, who are currently out of stock, so they are on back order, If I sell my T-Vee my current pedals have to go on that and I will be pedal-less as I am still waiting for my Shin Digs. Lets just hope the distributor gets the pedals quick.

Oh yea Saturday is the Braintree ride. So Friday or nothing for me.

Deng makes grips that are exactly the same as the Tarty grips/Try-All grips, just with an Echo logo so I don't see why not. I don't think every Deng brand should be made, if he just did the main colours with an Echo logo on, it would sell as probably the best rim tape because of the choice of colour. If you don't want the Echo logo, just flip the rim tape over (which might be handy for harder to find and more obscure colours). It would also be good as Echo rims don't have an Echo logo on them like a Try-All rim, so Rim tape could add the logo.

Yea Thursday is a no-no for me. I don't mind Friday or Saturday.

Whats fake, the age or the picture? An attempt to get hits and friends on MySpace? I think so.
-
I'll go if; Reece goes, I can persuade my mum to let me go, and if my bike is sorted by then.
-
I didn't say I was going to get another T-Pro. Most of the Deng frames are too expensive, so at the moment I am considering a Zip or a Pr. But I haven't got an email back from Supercycles, as I was hoping to get half price replacement.

Black Mumba: Freshly Sprayed And New Wheelset :)
Captain Scarlet replied to NileBrown™'s topic in Bike Pictures
Looks so like Steve-o's CZAR. As for the stickers they are nice, but your easily giving yourself away to the police and possible paedophiles, *Ahem*Maher*ahem*. -
CZAR's are very expensive and only disc or 4 bolt, not both.

Wasn't from trials but was from riding a few years ago, I fractured my skull and caused a bleed in my brain, blood clot. I had to be rushed to hospital to have it removed, I was 1 hour from death. Moral of the story, I think my one pwn's Simpson's.
-
Well I've cracked my T-Pro frame, and this is starting to get worse so I need to consider a new frame. I am after a frame with 4 bolt mounts, yet I also wanted disc as I do not yet have one so will need to run a 4 bolt until I then can, and also a frame with a bashplate. I have seen the Giant 20" trials frame from the pictures but can't find anything else on it, is there a geo/weight, price and possible place to buy? I'll probably get it straight from Giant if I do but I want to know how much it costs or if it is available in the UK. Thanks,
-
Thats nuts, how could anyone go that fast and still be incredibly smooth! I want that Giant frame so badly!

Halloween Costume! Its Coming Up And I Can't Decide...
Captain Scarlet replied to Barbra's topic in Chit Chat
Dunno if any of you have seen Emo Rangers on MTV2? Guide to making your own costume. =D -
Someone validate him now.

Hey I'm only doing it for my safety, its not like I really want to spend every penny I've got on trials part. Haven't got any pics of it yet, I'm sure I'm gonna get many people saying; "You wuss thats only a hairline crack!".
-
I used the search but can't find it, and the apparent song title on the first page of this topic doesn't bring nothing up on Google or Limewire. I'm after the real name of song In CLS' "ZOO-VIDEO-21", Danny Swindlehurst also used it in one of his videos. So I can download it as I can't find it at all. Thanks,

Siged. Good news: On inspection of my cranks it appears to be flat unscratched spot on my cranks and not a crack, so thats good news but I've already ordered my cranks, should be here on Monday. Bad news: After making the comment; "I'm not thinking of changing my frame until this one dies, which will be like years", I checked the usual place for cracks on the 05 T-Pro's, by the join that joins the headtube and the downtube, and found a series of 3 hairline cracks. Oh dear. =( And I'm not sure where I stand on the Half Price Replacement as I bought the frame second hand, but it was in immaculate condition then and still is in a fair shape now so I hope it can be done.

Captain Scarlet replied to Captain Scarlet's topic in Member Organised Rides
Okay mate hopefully see you there. -
How could anyone say that was boring, I found it a quite moving and almost inspirational video. Nice riding guys, how long you all been riding for?
-
My mate has a Tensile and tis complete wank in my opinion, sounds like its gonna explode and often skips. Someone else from round here has Try-All freewheel but doesn't ride his bike nearly enough to see if its still good, but it sounds and looks lush. I'm currently running an Eno which I quite like, is a nice freewheel and easy to clean out and change parts. When/if it dies, I'll probably invest in a Try-All.
-
Is it timed? because I had one a while ago that was. It would explain my crap score.

Captain Scarlet replied to Captain Scarlet's topic in Member Organised Rides
Come have a pop Joe, theres plenty of street to ride, loads better than Colchester. Steve-o likes it, otherwise he wouldn't be there so often. =D -
I thought 113 was good. 13 is my lucky number so meh?
-
But thats two markets, Trials bikes and BMX. They make the Mono Trials and that is designed trials specific, so why not adjust an already trials used hub so it can be used for mod. I mean theres lots of Mod riders like myself who have already invested in front hubs by Hope, but can't go no further than that.
