Paperclip

In general we call them spanners though in the auto trade they get called wrenches, where I take my car to get serviced they call them wrenches and to me it's pretty alien. Also swap that brake adaptor it looks weak for trials.

On behalf of the for sale and wanted threads you've wriggled you way into over the last 6 months thank god you got a bike sorted out ha ha. The bike looks awesome for you to learn on, no doubt we will be seeing your progress on here with some videos? Don't be shy about posting while you learn on here. It'll make for more fun as you progress and we love that on here.

Road bike lezza game and you've got my attention.

5th time I have come back to watch this video, it just keeps getting better and better. You couldn't ask for a cooler street edit. Keep up being awesome!

Awesome work guys. Loving these edits coming from you all.

To be fair I quite like the black forks as a change for Inspired. I would have probably sold these as a frame only or frame kit (including matching forks) so you did get a choice of matching/ mismatched although I like this new tact for Inspired to try and keep the costs down for the customer. It'll bring bigger batches of forks and simplify for future frames.

Bloody fair weather riders! haha Anyway back to Hugo's edit..................

Yeah I'm not saying don't it was more of a point on the subject of French riders just throwing in as many as they can into an edit. Especially this new focus online where it's just edit after edit of these top riders wanting to be Danny Mac.

Only the members of Luke-forum know such things.

Edit: Agreed on the flip situation we have going, G turns and also FJW's all suck.

I am into it, I want to go back and smash it all over again with you @Dman this time hardly spend any time at the factory and travel about the other city's. In terms of the other riders in that area I like Hugo the most. Also he is still learning, these things to him will be worth putting in I guess.

Hey all, Here is a edit from one of my more favourite TMS teamsters Hugo, only young though from the last time I rode with him in March his improvement is somewhat enviable. The young gun on the team although he's proving himself more getting better each edit and also adding more trial's into each also, a credit to Mr TM himself.

I got to see this the other day and the colour of the frame is actually a lot better than I first though (seemingly this happened pretty much every time with inspired colours). The forks let this one down being blue these need to be sanded and painted in my eyes. It felt nicer to ride than I remembered even though I didn't even like his stem so I think one of these is on my things to do list. Edit: I think that I have had some kind of lapse here but I am sure the forks on this bike was Concole blue when we rode @CalopS

I guess if you're younger and your sense of humour matches it's not as weird so I'll leave my being older and far darker sence of humour out of it. It was a whole load of filler for not much riding, although the clips of riding were pretty cool at times. I'd way rather see a group ride video of just the highlights personally. I see why Ali is Vlogging though to everyone else just trying it I aren't really into it. Bike checks to who gives a shit about a bike check on a standard inspired (not aimed at you guys *Cough J H) Also calling you out on the drop gap as whoever pointed the gap out had the right idea and then when it came to it you landed at the completely different part. Want to see one of you get that with a seat.

I started watching this thinking that I would hate it but in the end it was pretty cool. Apart from the random knocking over of the security guard which shows trials in a pretty bad way. Do a follow up it now

The idea behind the Champagn was meant to be that it wasn't to light and was beefed up in all the right places. Suggestions going forward to TMS from the older model from all the rider's ended up coming together as this model. The one piece BB, Seat tube gussets and thick tubing all add's up though street trial isn't about who has the lightest bike really. I did have my outburst of solo clips following on from this ride I think with Karl being injured combined with a sudden lack of confidence from him around the time had a knock on effect with me, I started to just enjoy riding on my own and not having to sort rides out with anyone. Since I randomly tore a muscle in my side my mindset has changed and as soon as I get riding again properly myself and Karl are planning on riding a fair bit more again so hopefully that will lead to another holiday! I am currently waiting on the Champagn "Reverse" model info to come to me but regardless of that outcome I plan of changing back to steel this winter so probably some more clips will happen soon after.

I'll be glad when we start filming on a different chariot. Thanks Ali. Luke you know the only thing better than trials is micro scooters!

Sausage party was shit, I streamed it and felt like I had been done over. looking forward to Dr Strange, John Wick 2 and Jack Reacher 2. Has anyone watched the Undisputed series? I'm mostly looking forward to Boyka! Scott Adkins is pretty underrated in film world. Hard Target 2 was alright. Finally Final Destination 5 I think must have been straight to DVD the story line was good and instead if you being shown how things are happening it was more a "when will it happen" which made for a good film. Graphics sucked! Would put you off laser eye surgery though

Agreed with the above comments, even your watch is sweet. Late to the T-F party here as it has been all around Facebook and back. The fact that you've mentioned that you're getting better each ride brakeless makes myself and presumably all the above look forward to your next edit. Really nice camera and edit work also so maybe you guys could work together more?

I agree that a shorter stem and bar would be cool to see on the 20" Alias but again it becomes another issue on what people want. Flipp could run a shorter stem with Arcade bars but he more than likely chose not to do this because he maybe doesn't like the geo of the bars. Though for any other riders it is one option. Also relating back to a head angle you have to contemplate moves like hooks and taps and going to front. All these are varied on the rider but gaps to front generally the slacker head angle helps. I am not sure how this would relate to hooks I remember being better at hooks with a steeper head angle but going to steep could knock those back. Taps are nicer with slacker head angle also. You have to keep in the back of your mind that the Trials is the majority part of the sport and the BMX influenced areas (especially for the most popular riders) just contributes to their lines.

The Vasha video on this was cool as but yeah this market easily got taken over by Alias now. Agreed with Craig my last point was the Market being so small for Trials its a huge risk for not really any gain especially with 22"

It's painful to read you say this highlighted point you made. Street trials geo's come in a pretty wide range to suit different riders, such as a Inspired Skye, TMS Combo, Ozonys range all suit shorter riders with a shorter reach. Then the Foreplay, TMS Combo L and Ozonys Smith all suit with a medium reach for riders and Finally the Arcade and TMS Champagn suit taller guys. Not to mention Marino can make you anything you like. Then in terms of geo a head angle in any of the above frames varies from 71.5 (Ozonys Styl)- 72 (Foreplay) upto 74.5 (Arcade). When you say "Street trials" do you just mean BMX? You're posting a question as to why companies are using a set wheel size in a sport that is minuscule compared to BMX.

Agreed. Also I don't think massively moving to steel makes a huge difference in terms of this guy breaking things, frame wise that Omen should take some breaking so perhaps its the best frame. 4 year's old forks have paid for themselves even if you only ridden these for 2 years. If you ride loads and parts last you 1 year that's value for money just think how many hours of enjoyment you got. It's just cycling in general and also the fact this sports is tough on parts. Just go for a pair of Element forks and forget about them for 2 years.

Ordered a warrantied used one from a previously written off car, looks a little tricky to get into a couple of the bolts but that's Porsche. Shouldn't be a huge job.

When you're going for it up the back roads and then you flick on your full beam for all your front lights to just go completely out and everything just goes pitch black. YOU SHIT YER KEGS. Emergency stop but without really thinking I pulled on the light's and manually the full beam worked so I avoided going off the road before stopping. PHEW! Got it to a safe place up the road to everyone else's inconvenience as I had to full beam it then tried the lights on and off for a few times and they came back on. Trip to the auto electricians I guess as the bulbs are okay and full beam works.
