  1. Youtube link is bogus but download link works. Sick. You're an absolute monster Mr T!! Oh yeah and Spartan... that avatar... seriously...
  2. I don't have the faintest idea whether you just made that up or not...
  3. Nah, it's all about 24" when it comes to streety stuff... Linky poo.
  4. I have heard of people doing this with motorbikes. You buy a crappy pay as you go mobile, keep it under your seat and if the bike's ever stolen you can track its location using services such as mobile locate.
  5. Hehe, was that the one where Chris was hitting that massive rock in the woods about 15 times and finally made it at the end?... That was only 2001 .
  6. Dunno... they're a bit, well, Spanish. Plus they have all the faults of Vdubs. The Ibiza my mum and dad had needed a new gearbox after 50000 miles.
  7. Yeah, it's not a hate of seats- just on the Zoot frame the design just doesn't lend itself to having a seat and post sticking out of it. Only really 'works' on proper double triangle type frames in my opinion.
  8. Yeah, pretty sure it's just a 27.2mm () seat tube you end up with so any BMX size post will fit in there. It's just a flat plate that bolts into the 4 threaded holes on the bridge between the seat stays and then a tube welded to accept the seat/post. The seatpost itself will then slide through the porcupine shaped hole in the bridge if you get me.
  9. Don't do it! It looks awful... However, if you must, I imagine Supercycles will be able to sort you out if you give them a ring. Was the same thing they used on the newer style T-Rex's as well.
  10. I was wondering when that would come up... :worried for spartan: On topic, I think it mainly comes down to time on the bike. Some people will pick things up quicker than others (Damon Watson springs to mind there) but without the hours on the bike that's of no use. So basically it's all about practice practice practice. And also, as has been mentioned, I guess riding with someone better than you will help too.
  11. Some seriously good riding there, cheers for posting .
  12. That looks like a l o n g stem Boon! And I thought my 115mm Simtra was long for a 24"...
  13. Slammable-wise, it's all about the Inspired post. 27.2 stumpy pivotal post. Ask Dave . Only other option is to get a standard BMX 25.4 post and get a shim. That's what I did before I got my Inspired setup...
  14. Nice pics Rob, cheers for posting . at Tom's riding face and the effort Dan's putting into that sidehop!! Good fun!
  15. Nah, it's just a standard colour. Went in to the local powder coaters and told them I'd like them done in bright orange and they turned out great. £15 for the pair too which I didn't think was too bad.
  16. Yes indeedy. Only went down there to film that one line because I know security are too fast down there.

    NBR 28

    In the vid it's just held on by the M6 bolt on the Echo hub. However, I've now turned up a custom stainless steel 10mm axle with a proper nut to keep it all together. Seems nice and solid!
  18. That place looks sooo good to ride. Was that Ian on the Boxx with all the Koxx gear on?! Enjoyed that
  19. Bent ones No, they were Monty 221Pr 'champagne' ones that I had powder coated in Repsol orange. Unfortunately I decided to grind out the inner wall a couple of weeks back which I think may have somewhat contributed to the fact I pringled it doing a 360 drop off on Friday :$. They have lasted of 18 months of proper comp riding though so they've had a good life! As for the vid- good job Dan! Has a nice fun feel to it and at my 'awesome stunting skills' on the likkle motorbike... With the suspension I didn't even realise I'd got the front wheel off the ground!
  20. Can you not download the vimeo file then use a free converter to change it into something that iPods can deal with?
  21. Gotta say to the green and the seat/post sticking out waaaayyyy too much... Nice build otherwise
  22. Beaulieu kicks arse, so long as the weather's ok. The setup is usually huge, big ol' sections set up for the motorbike trials boys that we get to play on in between their shows. Was at the Outdoor Lifestyle Show yesterday with NBR and it was absolutely dead... Think of their expected 30000 people about 500 showed up yesterday. Hopefully the weekend will be busier for you boys but Beaulieu's where its at !!
  23. Trialstube for anyone who's struggling with Vimeo (although it's made it a funny aspect ratio so Vimeo's still best). Trials-Forum Video ->Full View • Download • Upload (Fully raped quality wise unfortunately).
