  1. I want! Ace review!
  2. WEll I bought the full bike Onza T-Pro last year. But i've updated a few things on it. Such as: Vee brakes, I bought double maguras for it. And new pads. Got front and rear creepy crawlers Got a new freewheel (Try-All) New BB and cranks both Trialtech. New DMR v8 pedals. A new headset. Cane creek. And little things like bashring, bashplate, grips and stuff. It's had a fair bit done to it and all I really want for it now if bar stem and forks. It rides nice soo.
  3. Soo... basically the CRM's have absolutely no advantage over the LGM's? Are they being taken off the market and stopped being made or what? Haha
  4. Just get forks with a verrry big angle on them.
  5. I'd saw definately go with the ZOO! Lynx. Just because they are a more well-known and reliable company.
  6. Wow man! I really really enjoyed that! You have such a nice style to watch too! Great video.
  7. Highly recommended. Yeah sure mate. Oh yeah. When I have the money i'm thinking about getting Trialtech bar and stem. I love Trialtech. Haha, I like it myself. LOL! Cheers. Yeah, they're super heavy. Only thing that stops my bike being light. Haha Daym! Haah, Cheers mate. I didn't like it too much to begin with but I quite like it now. I'm gonna spray the steerer tube of my forks white and it might look pretty lush then.
  8. You could try bleeding your Magura with water if you haven't already done so. This makes it much easier to pull in.

    Gu Le?

    My mate snapped his on the chainstay. But they are quite nice riding frames. PM Luke. I think his user name on here is 'guuuuuuuuuuu leeeeeeeeeeeee' or somethin'! Haha
  10. Great great video! Why are you quitting!? Should stick at it.
  11. Hey. This is my Onza Ice. I've had it about 2-3 weeks now and I absolutely love it! Rides so nice and i'm very glad I got it. Only thing letting it down is my bar, stem and forks. But i'm skint right now so they'll do!
  12. Ahh get a maggie. Soo much better than discs imo.
  13. Wow. Think I'm going to be changing my CRM's to LGM's soon. EDIT: Wait a minute... Are the LGM's better than the CRM's in both dry and wet, for both hold and bite, AND it has a firmer feel? I take it their more expensive then? Because then nobody would buy the CRM's? They have no advantage over them?
  14. Will they be any good on smooth? Or meant for grinds like the CRM's?
  15. The best choice any trials rider can make.
  16. 1. I have those exact cranks and BB. The cranks are great. Not had a problem with them. When I first got them they were coming loose but then I got a ratchet 8 mm on them and tightened them very tight and it's all good. BB is fine too. IMO, it's not really worth it getting ISIS. I mean yeah, it's lighter and stronger and stuff. But it costs like an extra £45 which is a bit much if you ask me. 2. Sorry can't help you there. I'm a maggie basher. 3. I've not heard of anyone with it yet but they are meant to be like the 04 Python and supposedly it rode REALLY nice. 4. Well, basically different geo's are for different styles of riding and different feels. High BB rise makes a bike sit on the back wheel very nice and is great for sidehops, gaps and sidey's to back and stuff. It seems to work great with TGS. However low bb is better for street. Such as manuals and rolling tricks. You just need to see what sort of riding you do and gauge it from there. The length (wheelbase) doesn't just depend on the frame. The forks also have a great effect on how long a bike is as you measure it from axle to axle. Longer bikes such as 1030+ are great for sidehops and TGS whereas shorter bikes like 1000 sorta length are meant to be great for natty as they are small and can get round tight spots easy. Best way to figure out what you want is to have shots on peoples bikes with different geo's. 5. My mate has an Echo Team '07 but it's the long one. It rides very very nice and is a great bike. The geo of the short one... I'm not completely sure but I think the wheelbase will be either 1000, 1005. BB rise i'm guessing will be around +55, +60. Hope this helped a bit. Hunter
  17. Talk about anti-climax... *Rolls-eyes*
  18. +1 That's probably why! Haha Mine are on a medium grind and it's absolutely AMAZING! I haven't tried them on smooth but if your running a grind deinately get TNN's!
  19. Definately the Urbans. If it's the mod ones your talking about... You can get them in a very wide variety of colours, They are VERY strong!, The have extra thick sidewalls for strength and so it can hold more grinds, They have deep sidewalls to make setting up rim brakes much easier. All round better rims. And they are only 1g heavier than the TR's.
  20. EDIT: Forgot to say, the backings are super pimp and really really stiff aswell! Absolutely no flex.
