    24" Tube

    Does anybody know where I can get tubes for 24" 2.5 holy rollers? Cant find any. thanks
  2. Yeah I can zaptap up to about 3.5ft but it looks nowhere near as good as straight to rear wheel. I suppose its just practice getting up bigger things. I just hate it when my front wheel drops just short of the ledge and I go straight over!
  3. Hey, need a bit of advice. struggling hopping up objects higher than about 3 ft. I'm approaching with a fair bit of speed, doing a manual to get my front wheel uop but always find myself hitting the top with my front wheel and going forward or just landing on my pedal. Any help would be great Dan,
  4. Hey, Anybody about from/ ride in Newark/ Lincoln? Only me now by the looks of things.... Things were a lot easier when we were 13. everyone was doing it. Give me a shout if so
  5. Hey, Not sure if this has already been covered in another forum, apologies if it has. Basically, how do you correctly grind rims? I'm using the Onza DD7 rim brakes set up nicely now but just need a little more bite. If someone could point me in the right direction!
  6. Just keep doing what your doing. It's looking good so far, when I started about 6 years ago I would come home from school and say to myself, "right, I'm going to get on and off 4 pallets tonight" set a goal and practice practice practice, if you nail it only once or twice its easy to forget or get wrong. Nail it 30 times so you could do it with your eyes closed. you will progress easily that way. Its looking quite tidy already though like Carl said, just loosen up a little.
  7. Okay, so how does this sound. Front: Avid bb7 Rear: Avid Single Digit 7? Or maybe a rear Single Digit ultimate. What set up do you guys have?
  8. Hey guys, this might already have been covered so sorry if it has. Been out of trials for about 6 years and recently bought an onza zoot, thinking I would now be terrible opted for the standard version including v-brakes but soon got back in to it. Although they are good and I have set them up perfect I'm just not confident in them so looking for the best bet in hydraulics. I know Maggys are a safe bet but know there are issues getting the EVO2 mounts on the Zoot so was looking at disk all round. Here's what I'm looking at: Avid Elixir R Carbon http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=29726 Onza Elite http://www.rocknrollbikes.com/trials/brakes/onza-elite-hydraulic-disc-brakes.html or Avid elixir 5s http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=54689 I cant find any reviews of any of them as regards to trials only MTB. Hope mono's would be my first option but cant justify spending £300+ anyone got any suggestions? Cheers
