  1. You seem to be missing what trials is, and what the tyres are really designed for. Trials as most people think of it comes from competitions. And you know, when it's wet in a comp, they don't cancel it. Trials tyres, and tyres that people use for trials (Maxxis Slow Reezays etc) are designed to be used in all conditions, not just the dry. So man up and just ride! Riding in the wet will make you a better, smoother rider anyway as you have to think more about where you're going to get grip and how to stop things going wrong.
  2. No idea about the tune but man do fixie's suck.
  3. They're made for UCI style riding (i.e. used little and infrequently in theory) and as such they're not really designed to be beaten to death. I'd guess that if you're snapping Eagle Claw guards it's going to get abused...
  4. Best bet's probably for him to sign up to an 'enthusiasts' forum- there should be one for whatever he's got...
  5. What's the deal with most forks now being post mount? I had a scan a while back for forks for my play bike and the majority seemed to be post mount... is it going to become the new IS?
  6. Nope, I just tried a few spellings and nothing.
  7. Fair do's. In which case, you could drill and tap the blanks.
  8. Yeah, the Pinkbike search is kinda weird- tends not to find all the pics of a certain rider. Odd that none come up for Marco though.
  9. Marco Grosenik? Or however you spell it...
  10. He might've been running a chain device before, or just removed them to save weight but I'm almost certain you couldn't fit a granny ring to those.
  11. I don't really see why you'd want it on a trials bike. BMXers have a good reason to run LHD but for trials, there's really no need.
  12. Go crawl under a rock and die. Reported.
  13. Macneil SL . Looks really nice- stealthy! How you finding the frame? I love mine
  14. Yup, that'd be the fella. Was a bit off with my Jon and Hemming though .
  15. Who was the guy who used to ride for Haro and had a couple of shots in the MBUK tricks and stunts feature doing no footed stoppies (I think)? Jon someone maybe? Or someone Hemming or something? Looked like a full on show off...
  16. Mmkay... hehe. Those pictures get you back for all the gurning ones you've chosen on the 'riders' page of the site .
