I can pedal up 6 pallets but only static 4 or 5 .
-
Pedal up to a pallet is the easiest for me as I'm not scared of braking a wall and the wood wont scuff my bike . (have i spelt easiest right?)

I stay away from town centers the moaning is to much but its good when you get a crowd watching you . i remember an old lady about 80 ish said could you teach my grandson how to ride a bike he was about 4 ,i was out by my garage on my own i actually got him riding a bike in about 2 hours it was the most rewarding thing Ive ever done I'm only 14 she tried to pay me but i declined -

year i try and be as polite as possible, Ive only ever lost my temper about someone having a go at me once , that was when a man came up to me going on about how he pays taxes to build walls like this and how i have no respect and so on. i just said try and find a scratch on this wall that i have made then he started swearing at me he even kicked my back wheel so i threw my bike at him and shouted back .

Thats probably the most annoying question of all times . -
Sounds good i forgot its quite new so your probably right ,it wouldn't have had time for the spacer to overlap the stem unless super cycles over tightened it (which is unlikely.) so yes just loosen the 2 bolts on the stem ,tighten up the top bolt ,but i would say a full turn to be safe and tighten up the stem , but be careful the thread on the stem rips out very easy.

I'm always respectful when i ride ,i always keep my bash plate / any metal off the walls, I'm yet to brake any thing not even chip a wall .... to badly i wouldn't have the guts to argue to the police, i just nod and agree . -
true but whatever way you look at it the worlds strongest man is a lot stronger .

Hi mate, I have an Adamant A3 there brilliant although there slightly more expensive than the rest (apart from the koxx) they are well worth the extra money . there so small , compact and light i would never get a different bike , I'm adamant for life Hope i have helped . Jack.

Hi mate, I had the same problem with my t pro ,in my case the spacers had overlapped the stem ,so whenever i tightened up my headset it was still loose after about 10 minutes of riding .Have a look at your spacers if they are deformed at the ends buy new good quality spacers and that should fix it . Hope i have helped . Jack.

Hi mate , A good way of looking at it is if the world strongest man got on a trials bike,he would not be able to side hop as high as the likes of Benito Ross. tecneque must play a large part . Jack.

Hi, Can Any Body Help Me
*Koxx hydroxx 2 Jack * replied to lil pads's topic in Beginners Trials Chat
Hi mate , If you want to learn how to land a side hop on the back wheel you need to perfect the normal side hop 1st , when you have done that its exactly the same technique, but keep your weight back, and extend your arms up that will help a lot . Good luck . Jack . -
hi mate, ill take you through how to side hop step by step 1. track stand parallel to the obstacle that you what to side hop . 2.look at the spot you want your front wheel to land on and focus on it . 3.still focusing on the point you want your front wheel to land on go up onto your back wheel 4.hop around on your back wheel until you feel well balanced . 5 give a big hop compress your weight onto your back tire (preload) 6.simultaneously give a big kick of the cranks release your brakes and throw your weight up and slightly to the side 7. tuck your legs up as far as you can. 8. try and absorb the landing to help keep your balance. hope i have helped . jack .

*Koxx hydroxx 2 Jack * replied to Aaron.Tottman's topic in Beginners Trials Chat
Hi mate , Amazing riding but wheres your crash hat ? it only takes one bump on the head and you can be seriously hurt ! I would never ride with no hat . -
if you move your grinder in circles the oppersit way that the grinding stone is spinning it will leave a sharper grind .

Tar Where Can I Find It?
*Koxx hydroxx 2 Jack * replied to Lewis-Trials's topic in Beginners Trials Chat
hi mate, I don't know if your aware but you can buy spray on tar from tarty bikes its £5.00 and works better than tar in my opinion because tar only works to its full potential in dry weather but spray on tar works good in all conditions and now winters coming you probably need it . heres a link to the page I hope i have helped Jack. -
Hi, I Have a black Adamant A3,and it has blue everywhere , grips, rims and pedals it looks amazing (try all rims are good i have not buckles one yet)
-
Hi mate , there's nothing wrong with the way you hop, but it looks like you put a lot of effort into it .If i were you i would find a steep grass slope and just practice hopping up it using as little effort as possible you don't have to use your body as much, use your arms , legs and power from the drive chain more, but for 8 months of riding your brilliant ! Hope i have helped Jack.

Hello, I find it easier to tuck my bike up if i land my front wheel 1st with a lot of weight forward as it acts like an endo , your back wheel wants to come up as a pose to trying to land 2 wheels together having to lift the whole bikes weight with your legs. Hope I have helped , Jack.
