  1. For me, this vid is defining trials riding.
  2. Hi Forum, is a 135 hub advisable for this http://www.trial-bikes.com/tryall-bb30-crankset-p-536893.html crankset?
  3. This bike is gonna look awesome.
  4. Joined facebook for you. facebook.com/settings?tab=followers then "Who can follow me" -> Everybody.
  5. I don't use Facerape, but I know there is a settings flag to let others follow you without friendship, i.e. let them see your posts. Since you regularly create good videos or present pictures of your tricked-out bikes, this may be all they want. Possible other explanation: They want to sex you.
  6. Looks like a bird murdered a fluffy rabbit.
  7. You are right, the app overload has nothing to do with Facebook in particular. Facebook is in the same category as many other modern com apps like WhatsApp or Snapchat in that their business model is based on algorithmic behaviour prediction. With email, one can have an own server, which is good practice in the industry I work in, just to reduce the amount of analysis white-collar criminals can do. Therefore, I use email in private as well, so I don't have to check any other accounts. This is why I incorrectly mixed in the 1000 com apps argument. Nevertheless, there is the time-consuming trend of checking a 1000 apps amongst many young today, and a waste of time on digital com is what the thread starter complained about, although in a more specific context. XKCD said about that problem:
  8. I use E-Mail to stay in touch with people. But I guess I am way too 90s - this is 2013, an era of a 1000 com apps feeds to constantly check.
  9. The frame is made by easy-bike.cn, brand name is Speedrace, the frame is called Speedrace Solo, last year's model is similar to the one in the vid: http://www.tribalzine.com/?Le-catalogue-Speed-Race-2012
  10. The dirtiest pond in the world. David knows no fear of heights. Not even of diarrhoea from a possible fall into this "pond".
  11. Worse: Fake story ends with victims in hospital and not dead. Perhaps because the author felt it would have been too preposterous to let him get away with killing four. In reality, they are dead and one more is fully paralysed, and the criminal gets away with it.
  12. I should add that the man on the bike is presumably Marko Blau, who sells the bike in his shop http://www.biketrial.ch/shop/index.php . Worth a look, especially since he sells the tokbike (the forum favorite). I should also add that I am in no way affiliated with Mr. Blau.
  13. There is also a pro mod bike for adults now. I already posted that in the news section. Anyway, here is the bike:
  14. As seen in Vašek Kolář's latest videos...
  15. I look at the videos of riders who have comparable height and strength, and I observe the general style, i.e. if I ride or want to ride like that.
  16. Awesome build. And another oppinion on the color balance: Strip, but leave bars, pedals (and tires and grips, of course) black. That way all the ends of the bike are black.
  17. But every business is a system. And everyone competing tries to minimize effort and maximize financial output. So it is always interesting to know where there is not enough competition yet...
  18. Tell us more about how they achieve this...
  19. If you really can commit to working 24/7 for several years: Find your talents, write them down, think of what to make of them without learning much theory. Find something most people don't recommend or want to do.
