  1. that last bail was one of literally the most epic i have seen. deary me
  2. finally you can join us big boys sam! looking forward to a video. how are you finding that rear tyre btw!? not a usual choice for a stock thats for sure.
  3. but the gap he does that he looks to be putting max effort into looks tiny! sidehops still big though.
  4. ooooo watch out...ross mcarthur might go mental about this...
  5. surely rozza the simplest solution is already available with running the cable through your top cap though?? although becomes a little bit of a pain in the botty for the rear magura. a solution could be sought for that other than running stupidly long cables.

    You could probably use this tune ross... http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/modesty
  7. v-brake. grind. LGMS up front. extremely bitey. and loud. i love my vee. great for decent sized up to fronts. im thinking of trying it on a smooth rim to see how good they are then, however living in ecosse has its downsides due to the weather. grind is pretty light to be honest, although i have done it all over the sidewall. when i first did it i literelly just did it until the paint came off.
  8. looking forward to this boys. lets hope mcarthur can put some imagination in...
  9. Agreed with allistair - is this really what trials has become? bloody hell i wish some people would sort themselves out. EDIT: Grapes? What the f**k.... Fizzy Juice? Back in the 90's maybe. Tar? by far the cheapest out of the three. Grind - brilliant idea. if you really need to stick to having a smooth rim, a little bit of tar (which you can pick off any road pretty much for free...) will do the job.

  11. Atomz already did bolt through / still do bolt through on their frames... although it wasnt to any international standard that that i know of. so as long as the inspired does it in a manner that you can easily get replacement bolt through axles this would be cool. so i guess the question i am asking to anyone linked to inspired is - what is the axle diameter? is it an international standard?
  12. dude...you have to be able to take another link out of that chain. you should be attempting to have as little chain on your bike as in that picture mark posted earlier....on top of this you would get more of the spoke which wrapped around the hub, which sould mean more tension. this is what you seem to be missing you little sausage
  13. its ok....i have decent enough chain tension now anyway so meh EDIT: now now....dont all you tarty boys gang up on me...i dont want to recieve any kinky initiation test
  14. no i wouldnt....id also avoid the custard, jam, and chocolate doughnuts
  15. i have made several spoke tensioners all the correct way as described by the tarty faithful and i have to say....i definitely do NOT trust them. no chance in hell. i have one as a spare just in case, but dear me i dont trust it.
  16. i am the man that puts the holes in doughnuts in asdas manufacturing plants
  17. whats the price marky boy
  18. ill use this to state that.................I LOVE VICKY PENDLETON.......mmmmmmmh
  19. always forget how good you boys are. mahers up to backs look to be pretty big. impressed
  20. I call that move a bridge as you are bridging a gap with your bike. a wedge to me is when an object (rock / wall etc) is wedged inbetween two wheels. video is good though

  22. i just love the fact you are still using 20 posts per page.....haha...noooooooobie
  23. good effort dude. good to see that the US edition might have a little more sanity than the UK version who wouldnt let the demo teams from this side of the pond through. just seen the blindfolded bit....that was pretty impressive for having no sight...
