  1. anyone use one or had probs? reason i ask as got one, well had one on my simtra after a ride today i pedaled mildly hard to get a run up at a bank and the bracket coming off the runner snapped, luckily i didnt get too hurt or whack my knackers on the frame etc as the chain came off and locked up,but im a bit dissapointed as there ment to be good yet slight power through the chain and it broke? i may make a new bracket but ive lost faith in it now, any recomendations to a tensioner that works in same way ie pushing chain down not up or can you alter the other ones to push down via the spring? anyone wana buy half a kingz bwahahaha , cheers guys
  2. funniest thing today, thanks for what was a dull day
  3. i never get time like you i gota do recovery in eve, bike shop in day then walk the dog, clean the house ,go shopping blah blah blah, i wish i was a youngun again school then ride lol yeah im not going moto trials tom now so il meet my lil bro and we come meet you lot hes rode hes trials 2 times for 10 mins so has got to be the worse text me later as you been ignoring me all day and i dont wana have to send the boys round dude

  6. hi my mate has a frame with just single v brake mounts on rear, is there any adapters available so he can use the hs33 brakes? i no they do a bracket to go from hs33 to v brake but unsure other way round or is he lumped with the v's? cheers
  7. drop me you number budd if you want to hook up. cheers

  8. please dude, your 5 mins away. theres a bout 5 of us with bikes but il learn it first lol
  9. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO dont kill a blue rim i got a silver tryall rim on black hope hub little used pm if intrested oh and is that a kink in your chain in first pic
  10. lol i love these tyres, had wet scream front and super tacky rear and it was poo to ride, maybe ok for natural but for what i want they were horrid im still learning but it feels so much nicer for me, not sure if they will be good for "proper" trials but im nowhere near that stage yet so wont know dude fitted some oldskool odi grips today as the foamys were ripping me hands to bits and gona get a booster and some new rear pads , happy dayzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
  11. agreed rear rim is poopy you should swap it for my silver wheelset instead i love my simtra....
  12. bwahahahaha i dont really care too much just said my 2p's worth dude. im an old fart so prolly see things diferently to you younguns. either ways everyone should just get out there and ride, lifes to short
  13. thing i find funny is guys slate newbies for asking newbie questions but at the end of the day this is the "newbies" section. lol why members come in the newbie section to slate there comments is beyond me. this areas for people new to trials and as such will be full of questions that members or experienced trials folk may find boring, we all got to start somewhere, oh and i run 20psi after advice off the forum and a bit of trial and error.
  14. the padding is off, well it got tore off after a failed hop lol :$ looks far less gay now
  15. i need to learn to ride first buddy hahaha im still in the "learning the basics" stage at the moment. a few mates have bought them now so hopefully we will get a few hours of riding per week and pick it up fairly fast. amazing how cheap you can build a decent trials bike really hey, my dh bike the frame was 2700 alone!! 6500 for a full build. think il enjoy the trials lol
  16. mr.tattoo

    Simtra

    finaly got it right for me with a few tweeks and new bits, just got to get out there and learn now yes i know the roll cage pad looks gay but im old and fat and dont wana stove my down tube in while im learning lol.
  17. for 100 quid you cant really go wrong. plus you will try to learn more as it wont matter if you bash it about.
  18. as above my mate bought a t-mag last year new, rode about 5 times then broke hes leg so doesnt use it, i fancy getting a 20" to go with my stock and have been ofered it for a bargain price, are these any good? i noticed onza do loads of diferent model mods and wondered where in the line up this comes? thanks
  19. well changed the stem and tyres and what a diferent bike to ride, amazing how much diff small adjustments to stem can make!! only had a quick roll about but feels a lot diferent. cant wait to get out there and improve my riding.
  20. well got a new stem today from tarty, damn they deliver fast hey? gone from a 130-15 to a 120-20 not as high as i thought but i managed to squeeze a 5mm spacer on too so should be a bit better. its lashing it down now so il have a little play when its dry and see if it feels any diferent.
  21. im on the kent/surrey borders message me if you free to show me some skillz dude lol. ive seen a few kids round here on trials but they look about 14. sorry but i cant hang around with people that young. plus they looked pretty good lol. sorry for hijaking this thread, good luck with your new bike bud
  22. anyone? i wana get into it now and need to learn a few basics. thanks
  23. yeah same as, im 30 so cant really ride with young kiddies as dont want my name on a list hahahahaha i managed to get a few mates over from the dh side and they have all bought stocks now but although we can all ride soon none of us know what were doing lol. i may have to load the van up one day and venture further out for a meet and get shown the basics as i learn fast after being shown a few times. just remember NOT to sit down i done it once, funny how having your gooch span on a tyre makes you not do it again hey
  24. lol fair enough i thought you had to make formative posts and the likes hahaha let me no how you get on with the mod as ive just started out on a stock and find it huge. i think im going to buy a mod aswell and keep the one i prefer. its hard as i dont know anyone with trials so learning is hard when you dont ride with decent guys.
