    Manuals?

    Woop woop, i can comment on something im actually good at First thing is you really need a bike with a easy sweet spot. BMX's are ideal, thats how i learnt them........ If you want to learn on the inspired it will be quite hard. Shortest stem possible and high risers will help a lot. To get the front up, you need to gain a fair amount of speed and just wrech up on the bars as much as possible. When i was learning i tried to go off the back of the bike everytime, so you can get used to falling off the back and get used to finding how much u have to lift up. Remember: Falling off the back of a manual is better than not going far enough up. Keep a finger on your rear lever. If you go too far back lightly squeeze the rear brake lever to bring it down. Keeps your arms straight all the time and move your legs to keep the front wheel in the air. Also moving your arse down and up also helps. When you progress enough that you can manual good on flat then learn to drop curbs and keep manualing, the trick is to lean further back than normal when u are dropping the curb, this will keep the wheel up. If i was you i'd buy/use a BMX to learn them on and master the balance. Then move onto the inpired when your half decent...........
  6. He looks tiny on that bike How tall is he?? Like 5 foot?? Good rider, bit boring though, he should take to the streets.
  7. I had a zoot. It was my one and only trials bike. Good bike i felt. It was really nice for things like spins and bunnyhops etc. However on the rear wheel it was hard to keep up (because it has a more street geo). So things like gaps and generally poncing about on the rear wheel is quite hard. Maybe with a long stem and high riser bars it might suit a more TGS style. But yea i'd recomend it. BMX now though
  8. Repost mate but still it is amazing.
  9. I'll be seeing them in london . True, Savior is awesome 'If this aint love then how do we get out...' Love all the rise againsts albums.........

  12. Shiny Toy Guns - Don't Cry Out and You are the one. Just found a song on a trials video, they're quite good.
  13. Great riding dude. Loved the backwards 180 gap at 0.33. Music didn't tickle my fancy though i'm afraid.
  14. Thats NMC for you. At least he's got another hundred answers for how to get his grips off
  15. Just found this video teaser of the Triboulat brothers....... Looks a bit impressivem some of the stuff Thomas can do on his mod is amazing, he's improved LOADS....... Also includes a barspin which i thought was rather impressive, never seen that before. Let me know hwat you think. Repost?? TMS Teaser Vid
  16. In a really wierd situation. Had a gf for 2 years, near the end i was really into her sister but didn't do anything because i thought me and shell where really good together. Then shell dumped me, for no apparent reason. Then i started talking to her sister more and met up with her and had a few really good convo's. Been on msn to her quite a bit. I was trying to be really flirty just to see how she felt about me and she's flirting back so it's all good. Problem is she's one of those girls that can be like that so i dunno if she's into me or not. Also i can't get any hints off her sister because i don't talk to her and despise her. Also i doubt she talks with her sister bout me cos i used to go out with her.......... I invited her round the other weekend and she said yea, but then we both got busy. If it was any other girl i would know she was interested but because of the sitauation i'm really not sure. She say's things like she misses me etc and that she might go to this youth weekend thing if i go etc. Now i'm annoyed because i can't stop thinking bout her (we all know how this feels). Any ideas??? BTW i'm not trying to get with her to spite her sister and make her jealous or anything, i genuinly like her............
  17. Take that tartybikes sticker off. Will make the bike lighter
  18. yea like that. This is actually the one i was on about. Natural Reset 24". Looks sooo good, (i don't like the yellow chain though.) Reset 24" -Natural
  19. Flat end screw driver with chain lube or hairspray or cleaner on it. Slide under grip and wipe all round. Then twist grip off. Think this could have gone in small random questions....Don't you??
  20. I love the look of a frame that has never been painted and you can see the lovely natural colour of the metal and the darker areas where it's been welded. Looks frikkin awesome Anyone got a pic of this?? Can't find any but i swear i saw one the other day.............
  21. BMX Wheels are generally 14mm. So they may not fit into the forks or frame. Also they are heavy and not really suited for wide tyres and low pressures. Btw i do believe trials wheels are weaker than BMX wheels often.........
  22. 'How old are you Mclovin??' 'Old Enough' 'Old Enough for what??' 'urmmm....to Party!!!!' Haha..... I'm 18
  23. Mate whats that burger your eating in your display pic?? Looks like a pounder........ I had one of them once from the kebab shop.....Wasn't even on the menu, but i was like 'i'll have a pounder mate'. 4 Burgers!!!!! That was goood haha
