  1. Well i will answer the questions about a front echo rim on the rear (as i run one) Brilliant rim. I have had no problems with sideways roll, no problems with pinch punctures. I recently ground out the inner wall of the rim (to see about weight weenie ness) and still had no real problems. Although the rim is now dieing and as such i will be re-building my silver rim onto the bike. Its definately worth considering, as they hold a grind fairly well, and as someone said, its the same weight as a try-all, so you will not notice a difference in the weight, however u will have a strong rim.
  2. i have paid my fees. See y'all there
  3. Wooo i have registered for fort bill. Bring it on
  4. batman for the win.... but yer, its damon wannabees im afraid who are wearin them...
  5. Is now available here - Youtube Playlist If anyone wants to comment. Feel free
  6. Right, i have been thinking about this all morning (after i noticed the topic as i arrived in at work) and just reading back through, most of the names i want to put down have been mentioned (also feel slightly :$, after what people have said about me (cheers for that guys). I have a few names, you will mainly notice that these are the 'everyday riders', nae pro's for me, as they dont inspire me to ride, i just get impressed with what they can do. The scottish muckers boys - too many of you to list, you all know who you are, but basically, you are very much the reason im still riding, and still pushing to improve my riding. Never fail to have a laugh with everyone of these guys. TartyBikes Boys - Ali, Stan, Adam, Dave - All great, smooth riders, and lets be honest, adam and dave are getting on a bit, and they still ride. (almost as old as Ot pi i heard). But to top it off, they are good guys to have banter with, helping to make riding fun. The 'leeds' crew - Kenny, Boon, Lewis, timmy, Kev, Judders - Never fail to have a fantastic time with these guys - both on and off the bike :| Danny Mac - Rides that shit and boring style that he has, but he is a nice guy....we cant all have everything eh? Rowan J - Erm....nicest guy in trials? has some nifty stunties on him too. I could honestly go on and on, but these are the boys that 'inspire me'. Cheers boys.
  7. some really sweet pics min . really like the look of the bike as well
  8. cheers guys. still awaiting the bike, but cant wait to get it. filming will start again when i get the new bike....
  9. I had something super low on it if i remember, was probably about 110 x 5* or something...it was a bontrager if i remember correctly. Videos...hmmm.....i do at home, but i need to get them all uploaded on youtube . Ill get onto that for you....
  10. just wondered, as if it were owned by beau and was blue then it was originally mine. pretty cool to see it going if it is his... also, i think i recognised the dent on the Downtube lmao
  11. did that coust used to be blue? at all in its lifetime? random comment?
  12. you have info on the Geo chris?
  13. The eastern countries love that kind of thing...
  14. SWEET pics ad / clare / ad / ad (bigman) some really awesome stuff there, all the riders featured are doin some MENTAL stuff. Really good Can you answer me a question though? How come Ali is off his vee? eh eh eh ohhhh whyyyyyyyy, does it always rain on me, is it because i lied when i was seventeen, why does it always rain on me, even when the sun is shining, i cant avoid the lightning
  15. agreed with above.....its not the best video ever. but james B is a beast either way
  16. pushin the limits of BIG. nice one damon
  17. tooo much flashing. but he rides like a reet beast.
  18. click the picture and you will see that it does actually look smaller than it does in the small pics. Someone wrote it was 1.07m so on basic calculation 107cm / 2.5 = 42.8
  19. Nope. I decided that it was the right time to say thanks to steve and to move on. He needs to be able to sponsor riders who are pushing the boundaries, and i dont feel i am one of those riders. So, we both said our thanks and went out seperate ways . EDIT: Cheers rowan, am looking forward to riding the atomz. hopefully the geo will sit right for me and ill get some decent riding footage on the go (both street and natural )
