Indeedy try google. just look for video camera reviews there foookin hundred of them. Ive even done the work for you!!! Nowadays (wow i sound old) most digital cameras have decent video, so why not get a digi cam instead, pictures and video then!
-
Seconded. Ive still got the old maggies pad on my zoo, they work pro with a light tar, why fix what isnt broken? Just keep practicing is the best way to go, get out and ride as much as poss and once you get the hang of things you'll do well.

Wow, fookin awesome riding. you've just inspired me to go and ride!

Afternoon all, I'm thinking I could do with some frame protection as I dont really want to dent or bust up my frame, plus im broke, so wondering what amazing contraptions you've all made for your frames as I would like to steal some ideas. Ive just got some rubbery material round my chainstays at the mo but it looks a bit sh*te. Also what parts (tensioners, etc.) have you made/bodged. Pictures would be nice. Cheers , Charlie.

A Trials Dvd. Some Questions For You!
The Hitcher replied to minitrialer's topic in Beginners Trials Chat
Would you spend £5.00 on a biketrials DVD? Yes What is our favourite trials style, Street(normal riding around town), natural, Urban(e.g Matt Berridge, John Shrewsbury)? Bit of each really Who are your favourite UK riders? Neil tunnicliffe at the mo How old are you? 19 Do you prefer your favourite songs on a biketrials video or a simple well made track which fits with the video? Well made soundtrack that fits! Do you want the video to have different sections from different rides/events. YEah some Do you like seeing different riders and new places/section, or the same old big gaps as you can appreciate how big they are( eg St.Pauls gap in london and most big riding spots) Different places, same ones get boring after seeing them once Do you prefer a video which sets the scene and has some nice shots and some experimental parts rather than just all riding? Good mix of both Anything else which you think makes a trials video stand out?: Good camera work, no shakey camera's, only one rider in the shot, not a whole load (unless it looks pro) -
NOt sure how they ride but my mate has one, Ask ALEX in the NMC hes got a red one, got it the other day. I'm going to head out this weekend and have a ride on it. They look ok, bit boring though. The 6.0 rides allright, cant say im a fan of higher bb's though. Yeah and they may break, alex has broke like 2, the 5.0 and 6.0, already, so the new 7.0 will be his third i think.

Funniest Thing I've Seen In So Long.

I think i just wasted 4mins of my life -
Dont matter if no-ones got one, just ride similar size wheelbase frames. But tis up to you, more people are riding longer frames these days, easier for taps i spose, but hey everyones different. Anyways hope you get yourself a nice bike soon!
-
Manifesto by ryan leech, just super pro smoooth riding. Always makes me get my bike out and get riding!
-
Really you need to ride a long and short bike to find out which is best suited to you. I'm about 173cm tall and ride a 1065 zoo, i love it! But ive always rode shorter bikes, i find them easier to throw about etc... I rode my mates short zoo and then another mates 1100 limey, much prefered the shorter so went with that. so get out there and try different bikes!
-
Sell them! Lol, i doubt you have 10 bikes to put 10 stem on, make some money. Ive only got one rim and a spare frame set, cracked though.
-
Yeah ive seen that seller has had like 2 0r 3 already for sale on there, bit of a bargin really. They used to be on there for 199 with the chris king headset i believe, Cant remember who was selling them, supercycles possibly. but that was ages ago because i was thinking of buying one, so i doubt they'l come up again.

Hi all, At the mo I am running maxxis high roller tyres which seem to be coming to the end of there life, I do like these tyres but I thinking about getting some different ones. I was thinking that streety tyres like the dmr moto's would be fairly good for street trials, althougth may be a bit prone to pinch flats, or maybe even some maxxis hook worms, which are basically slicks. Just wondered what tyres you have all used, or have you used some more streety tyres? I'm going to try the dmrs this easter holiday, see if i can get them cheap somewhere and see how well they work. Cheeeers!
-
Can see you can handle a bike, now buy a tripod or a friend and take it to the streets, or natural! Some nice moves thou
-
WOW very nice find indeed! What crazy koxx bike is that? looks like one solid tube with wheels. Lol.
-
Look pimp mate, you got to come out on sunday since i have no work! Let me have ride, love how much the top tube curves! Althougth think you might need to get rid or swap your gold rims, dont look as good with red! Later!

Which Bars? Similar To Zoo! Risers Or Echo Toughs
The Hitcher replied to The Hitcher's topic in Trials Chat
Are the t-raptor bars HERE the same as the echo tough bars???? As I cant afford to shell out loads for new bar and new stem. Thanks! -
My garden is about as big as my room, tiny. so no garden trials for me. Although my mate (alex) has a empty swimming pool with tonne of pallets and metal pipe etc in. which is a bit pro, havent been down there in a while, just hope he hasnt put water in it.

Which Bars? Similar To Zoo! Risers Or Echo Toughs
The Hitcher replied to The Hitcher's topic in Trials Chat
Thank for the advice. Yeah i no i have some 30mm clamp bar at the mo, but since I'm borrowing a try all stem ive had to get try all bars, seems try all only make parts to fit there own parts! Annoying. What about some old onza bars, there some with the 25mm size? cant remember what there called, think they were on the old t-raptor???? -
THis is a pro idea, Much cheaper and dont look as shit as an armourdilo! If i wasnt overdrawn on my account by 50 odd quid id have one. Will try get mumsy to buy us one. lol. Keep up good work!
-
Hey all, At the mo I have some try all 25.4mm bars, but I want something more like the Zoo risers or echo tough bars, but there only in 31.8mm which is annoying. I have try all stem, think its 25 rise 100mm, or something like that, which is lush, but annoyingly is 25.4mm clamp. So could anyone reccomend me some new bars similar to ones stated or a new stem similar to the try all one Any help greatly appriciated! Charlie

Its a bit boring isnt it. The paint job isnt very imaginative. Bet it rides nice but did they have to make it look so dull and boring. Grey? grey? Do like the rear disk mounts though, a bit swish!
