  1. sidehops up rails rule the fun is never ending, going to try 180 pivots on them soon though. which is dirty haha anything to do with rails, just overcome them again since i fell on one and got internal bleeding
  2. So....anyone fancy it. let me know , hopefully me, bobbyd, sam, and towler will be along. put your name in here and let us know. Ill let u know a starting time and place soonish.. ben
  3. Zoo cranks rule, they are the best cranks I have used EVER. they are the bee's knees. and ive had tensiles, middleburns, truvativs, all sorts. STIFF STRONG and laugh off the damage...... although....only 170mm length, and black and silver. ta ben
  4. best brake i have felt is hope trial brake (duncan shaw's) its a hope try-all trial brake. it works ace. although i cant say because i havent ridden a avid so i havent voted......
  5. i have done 50 so that makes it only one pallet - meh meh meh meh meh nah but its high whatever it is, apparantly craig lee scott has done 55" up a wall, damon watsons done 54" (on a stock, which is harder) ta ben
  6. 8 PROPER blue pallets is closer to 52" i think ..........so i found out when i tried, well they are 6.5" thick pretty much. so 10 is high, BUT HE DOESNT MAKE IT imo, because why would they have stopped it if he had made it, he slipped down, i will eat my shorts if someone proves me wrong. he does make 9 pretty piss though at the end of that clip
  7. he doesnt look to make it though chimpy or you would have shown the whole video. I can see he easily makes 9 pallets......which is the second one. BUT the first one, he doenst make, look how much his rear tyre slipping off it is big, but i dont think he makes it.....
  8. meh who cares, you could have at least put up a decent quality picture, i hate it when people use video screen shots. its a dece sidehop, but not as high as some are saying . its definately NOT 45 anyway, maybe without the pallet. which makes it about 39 with the pallet. sorry....but it was the shit screenshot that pissed me off. but good sidehop, for a 14 year old
  9. tom we must have similar musical taste's....either that or im your stalker btw everyone, a few people have said that the video is only 20 or so seconds long PLEASE GO TO THE VIDEOS PAGE FOR THE FULL LENGTH VIDEO > benhulltrials6.mov / .divx I would like to know peoples thoughts. so let me know, however harsh
  10. go on slag high bb's. they are fine for tapping if you take the time to learn them on it. ive done 52" on mine, so it can be done. and if you ask me thats a fairly uncomprehendable size for most. if you take the time high BB bikes can be tapped. OK....... just hit the wall harder and lower, dont hold your front brake, let it spin. it works.......
  11. tights are probably warmer than baggy clothes though silly boy cool vid. not that much snow though we have a foot deep here
  12. cheers for comments boys much appreciated anyone else
  13. some ace photoshop there chimpy, sweet as. by the way i sent you a pm. add me to msn if u fancy biketrialsmedia@hotmail.com
  14. send me some clips then son and u will be on it daft lad, i need decent quality please.
  15. Right. I went to glasgow with me mate towler yesterday, got some footage, enough for a video so i thought i would release one. Also i have been playing around with making www.hull-trials.co.uk, which has taken some time and since i saw jonny jones trialmedia site its a very simple version of that. its got pretty much the same major feature (the clips) but is not a carbon copy its my own (allbeit shit) coding and my own work, i just used the same idea. so please visit the website, video can obviously be found on the videos page, but certain short clips are on the main page...... maybe have a look around and let me know what u think of the site aswell. www.hull-trials.co.uk video is benhulltrials6.mov (also available in divx) its 2:35 long and around 25mb........ please dont hotlink. ta

  19. oooooo this ashton bikes craze thats going on............. i know he is sponsored....... sweet video ali, i wish i had that amount of style, very nicely done, given me some thoughts for the week while snow is a foot deep not liking the music though. endohopper, one minute u like big stuff, one minute u dont......meh i think all the tartybikes offering have been good :$. im especially liking ali's and stan's stuff, both good riders. damon get ur video out you fat son of a b............east
  20. yes it is harder for taps.....but depends on what type of stem you run...for me it seems taps are easier with a higher stem because the effective rise levels out to a more even overall rise so a bb rise of 55 with a stem of 20 rise is difficult to tap....... = 35rise but a bb rise of 55 with a stem of 35 rise is easier IMO..... = 20rise its difficult to say, although i have done around 52" on my adamant, and only did 55 on the toxsin. but if you spend ages tapping stuff then dont bother with the adamant its not amazing for it.
  21. the toxsin was a good frame, untill it went snappo. other than that i cant fault it, good for taps, and a good alround bike, although any bike like the coust is a good een. I prefer the adamant, it suits my riding better and i can still do most things on it that i could before but go bigger so its good....get one haha
  22. none of them are BY danny, dannyaviemore is danny riding. whereas forta is of the fort augustus comp recently cheers
