  1. Yo guys, I have been off the bike for a few years now and haven't been following the frame market. What are the frames of today that can be considered as strong and appropriate for bashing? The question goes to those who land on their chainstays 100 times a day pushing a sidehop or often hit downtube on rails etc I am doing product development at uni and a frame for bashing like the old Deng frames could be a fun project for me so I need to get some public opinion on this so will appreciate any input on this matter. Cheers
  2. Hi, guys! I took this offer and trialled a Nokia Lumia 900 phone so I could make a video. Unfortunately because of bad weather, lack of time and usable daylight I only got a few clips before the time run out. I think the tune goes well with this gloomy autumn weather. Vimeo Video -> Original Video
  3. Good riding. But I suggest you to get the longest mod stem possible or get bigger wheels. It will help you with your posture, ease things up. Now you look too crooked on that bike.

    Bar Height

    Sorry, but this is useless. There will be no formula as it all depends on how tall are you and how proportional your body is. Here is a simple illustration that shows what i mean. Same setup, but for one rider front end is too low = ass too high and seemingly awkward position, but other rider looks ok. As long as riders position on bike is not noticeably ridicculous, it is foolish to say his front end is too low. Individual body characteristics and personal preference is what matters.

    Snowy Rail Fun

    Mini winter video. Very repetitive, but can't do much else as all other edges ar covered with tonnes of snow. Anyways had a lot of fun chrashing and scraping ice off rails...with my ass http://vimeo.com/18243931
  6. Hey! If you remember a few weeks back I posted This video of me riding Hertford. Well this time it's my friend Mikelis, riding bigger and better than ever before. Enjoy this fun video.
  7. I think you drink too much of that monster energy Nice hooks, drop gap at 1:44 looked scary and that gap over stairs
  8. Thank you for comments guys, appreciated. They are tricky to learn but super fun to do once you nail them As you know I am quite tall so everything next to me looks tiny Naah just kidding You will have to teach me those huge taps you do this summer Front wheel moves are my favourite Music is Ronald Jenkees - Guitar Sound Glad you like mate. And yes, I finished a foundation year at Hertfordshire uni but don't want to stay there, I have applied to other universities. Editing is not my strong side, I struggled with it for quite a while and my computer kept crashing randomly every few minutes
  9. Hey, guys! I made this video out of clips I filmed this spring in Hertford - town where I lived during my studies. I tried to include as many different moves I could so I hope you enjoy it. Let me know your thoughts on the video. Big thanks to my main supporter Trialsmaster.net
  10. Damn you lucky b-stard, that is too light You better get a video out soon mate
  11. Me and my mate want to go on this ride so bad, but the train from London is stupidly expensive and Megabus doesn't carry bikes Anyone going from London area with 2 extra seats?

    Doing Your Mom

    Thanks, Matt, nice to hear this from you. It's the 07 long Adamant, going strong for 2.5 years . And we live near London - in Hertford. Summer is not far my friend Oh come on! We didn't want to cut the song in the middle so just took the beginning. Jeez, it's just for a laugh mate. Here is the full song if anyone wants to hear it.

    Doing Your Mom

    Oh, thanks Rafal for letting me know, I wouldn't have thought of that myself I have only been in the UK for a few months now and I have no idea where to find a decent welder and knowing how expensive this country is I don't think it would be worth it, As the frame is more than 2 years old and has other cracks as well. And as goes for the tune - today is mothers day Where is your sense of humor? Anyways, thanks for the good comments guys , I'm glad you like

  15. Do you really care how you look on your bike that much? I know I don't, I just wear sweatpants and tuck them in my socks - nice and comfy
