    Cocky TMS 2

    Such smooth. Much Like.
  2. Bike suits you better than any other you've ridden. Nice wee video G. Looking forward to seeing you progress on it.
  3. The music isn't up my street, but who cares when the riding is as good as that! I do love how individual you are James! Not sure which was my favourite bit, must go re-watch immediately.
  4. What he says /\/\/\/\/\
  5. The up-to-front on the spiked rail was a highlight for me
  6. So good that I went and made an order at TB! Flipps in to front line at the roundabout was sweet. Everyones riding was good though

    CLS RAW

    imagine how big craig could have gone without those big ass moon boots on!! Great to see some CLS! Brings back massive memories of TGS Envy
  8. Full set for £200 c/w bleed kit, rotors, etc
  9. Won a pair of MT7's on ebay for an absolute steal. Anyone want to buy a set of MT5s?
  10. Thanks for the compliments gents. Ross - didn't want to just do them for the sake of it. Need to find some decent lines to throw them in / get better at them.
  11. I've been riding a little bit more recently, and managed to get some clips filmed while I was at it. Big thanks to Inspired Bicycles for the Console and to Phoenix Riders Co. for the threads. Recommend to go to Vimeo to see the HD version.
  12. God dammit James. Y U SO BMX'Y? Y U NO A TRIALS DRONE? Sorry, lifes-a-trial, but its a dated argument. James is an exceptional trials rider if you look up his much older videos, but he has been influenced greatly by other disciplines. I know you have said you love his videos, but the second part of the statement ruins it. EDIT: haven't watch the video yet as I can't at work.
  13. I didn't realise how much that was annoying me until you took it away. Now we just need to be rid of 'status' updates on TF and I will be a happy bunny.
  14. Finding a song for a small video is doing my napper in.
  15. I don't know why, but on the front page, the number of topics per forum being so large, and even being there to be honest, is bugging me. Everything else looks good though :)
  16. And we've never ridden that whiteinch cross spot before because...???
  17. Great wee video James. Really enjoyed that.
  18. I can't see it, but assume its the above below documentary? Enjoyed it when I bought the DVD, but its a little 'Ryan Leech' for me. I loosly agree with most of what they are saying, but I don't think it needs to be as deep as they go
  19. Garretts riding is unbelievably polished. He makes everything look effortless no matter the difficulty, and manages to throw in tricks without any speed or height. So good. Don't get me wrong, the rest of the guys are awesome too! I just think Garretts riding really stands out. EDIT: I need to get back to spain on my bike! they have such good spots!
  20. Mcarthur vs UK24 in a trials 'FACT OFF'
  21. Jardo, i think you're going to be associated with anyone wearing the same glasses as you!
  22. Cross post from Pinkbike.com - http://www.pinkbike.com/news/hardore-german-techno-eurobike-2015.html Brake Force One Brake Force One have built the first ever brake which uses water instead of hydraulic fluid. Sounds crazy but their engineers say that brake fluids don't get as hot as people think - Magura and Shimano seals aren't designed to take more than 100°C and the only reason we use DOT or mineral oil is because of old technology taken from the automotive where fluid temperatures can get much higher. Brake Force One say that water is actually more heat resistant than hydraulic fluid with two times higher heat capacity, five times better heat transportation and less heat elongation. In direct comparison tests the water filled brakes outlast normal fluids, and the outstanding benefit of water is that it's clean and can be found anywhere. Propylene glycol antifreeze is used to prevent freezing in winter temperatures, and there is also a neat quick release button for the hoses if you need to cut, or re-route them. The H2O brakes weigh in at 188g each and will be available in October for €594 pair. (Editor's note - Don't shoot the messenger)
