  1. Why from? M5 still the high-end bike, the one on the first pic will be the mid-range solution with "adult comp" geo, using alu hydroforming and welding instead of carbon monocoque and less expensive parts.
  2. Friend of mine was there and he said it was around 10 1/2, but from looking at the video, I could swear it was one more. He also tried to coust 11 over a year ago, but couldn't wheel swap, if I remember correctly.
  3. There is some extra Jedi balance required to do that. But after seeing how easily he hooked to rear and held it up there on that tiny wall at 1:00, I'm quite sure he has that ability.
  4. I know. And that bunnyhop was on the funny side of 165. And he tapped the edge mid-air.
  5. The man can make swap his wheels real good. Time for the sponsors to get him to the World Cup... Speaking of height, there is also this little WC warmup jump of some Spaniard: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-SQLVBwhns&start=573&end=576&autoplay=1&rel=0 Also notice the kicker simply not being there on the ground in front of the car.
  6. I'll think about this before milling, nice idea.
  7. I can see it is one CNCed piece up to the middle of the tyre. With lugs into the chainstays, do you mean the chainstays are slipped on a smaller plug, or just this visible extension of the CNC part up to the middle of the tyre? I'm asking because I did a similar design recently...
  8. Thats a nice try then. Btw, Hippy: I'm german, our spiritual leader has a moustache.
  9. I love old Racelines on a silver bike.
  10. People are obstacles as well. Everything being some form of at least half-solid matter can and should be used for biketrials. 130? How does one get that kind of power?
  11. Normally, his chain has enough preload to be silent, if that is what you meant
  12. Lol, nice hoax. If that were for real, they would have asked facebook service staff to investigate. They could have easily solved the case, as they have access to browser fingerprint, Internet history, cookie data for other accounts on the posting device, and most importantly, some stats about dynamic writing, probably identifying the writer if he or she has another facebook account. I love the british way of putting it.
  13. I remember that he broke a snailcam recently. It was probably there, causing the chain noise. David goes through frames like butter, so a chainstay protector wouldn't really protect the frame...
  14. I appended outtakes to the first video filename as a hint for David that this one includes the missed jumps (the first view seconds). I think Rusevelt meant something like "Checkout the other video", and some keyboard input service made outtakes out of that. And for the slide fall in the Mannheim video: I stopped recording the moment it happened. The last frame is in the video.
  15. Recently I captured a typical training session of David in Schatthausen, where the local motorsports club has built a very nice trials site, which is used by many world elite riders to hone their skills:
  16. My experience for the sidewalls: Buy washerless clamps and parallel-sidewall rims -> brake works even with dead grind. Buy Magura clamps with washer and angled rims -> tried to adjust many times, asked others to set it up for me, shitty brake every time.
  17. And TRA probably weighs twice as much as Brumotti...
  18. You have a wallpaper of your mum in your bathroom?
  19. Pussy goes by the name "Watson" for sure.
