  1. As I mentioned earlier, I've been riding for a year, and I was wondering how the trialscene is, here in sweden? I live in gothenburg and would like to get in touch with new people to ride with I dont care how good/bad you are, since its nice just to hang out with someone.. We can help out, swap tips, tricks and ideas. Lets get together and ride some before the summer is over! //daniel
  2. That one looks really nice The handlebar looks like something I'd like! What kind is it?
  3. Im one of those who prefer street.. Probably because of all my time spent on a skateboard. After reading your replys, I guess I need to go out and practice some natural riding. Havent been spending much time on rocks
  4. The few clips I've filmed are done with a Canon Ixus 900ti Digital Camera Quality sucks, but what to expect, eh?
  5. Tried backwheel hops? And I agree, try different things and ride at different places, and ride as much as possible to get a good feeling for your bike. When I started out I only rode at the same place, doing the same ups and endo sidedrops over and over again.. It took me longer to learn other stuff, than it probably should have. Good luck, and keep practicing!
  6. I started riding trials seriously on a stock bike when I was 27, that was about a year ago.. But I've fooled around with trials moves and stuff since I got my first bike. I remember cracking quite a few frames on my kids-bikes when I was young
  7. I'd like to give my input on things.. I have an onza t-bird aswell, and I have to agree that the standard brakes arent the best option. The link to the magura EVO mount adapter in previous post didnt work for me so here is the correct url: http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=291 I also agree with BJ Hymes that the EVO mounts are annoying and hard to live with. I have them on my main bike, and although the braking is top-notch, its a real pain to get them setup Just the way you want them. The little "plastic" adaptor thingy, which you use to fasten the top part of the brakemount, is all bent and doesnt fit so good anymore. (atleast on my bike) A new frame with 4 mounting holes in the rear would be nice! But hey! Dont let this stop you, because the hs33's are really good, and you will definately be pleased with them
  8. Hey there! It sure is Placebo, and the track name is "English summer rain". Im sure you will find it
  9. Hi! My name is Daniel, and im a trial-o-holic. Last year I bought my first "real" trials specific bike, although I have done trials moves on all my bikes since I was a little kid. link to pic: http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/forum/index....p;#entry1665913 I am probably too old for this, (28) but I gave up skateboarding, aggressive-inline, bmx, and all regular sports like soccer and golf.. for biketrials. And ofcourse I have never regretted it. Everywhere I go I see obstacles just waiting to be mastered When I was younger I used to watch motorcycle trials on Eurosport, and I have always loved coordination and pure skill sports, guess thats why I love this I live in Gothenburg, Sweden and mostly I do all my riding alone though I have a friend about to buy a trialsbike soon Too bad the trials-scene isnt that big in our town. Well, after one year of riding I see great improvement of my skill, although I have MUCH to learn Maybe I'll put some little movie online one day.. Who knows Talk to you guys soon! Take care! //Daniel
  10. Here is my little bikey: 26" Koxx, weight is about 10kg. Been riding with it for about a year, and I really love it!
