Thanks for the link dude, the frames look nice on there, theres a dark candy red one in there, dont think its meant for Trialsy stuff though haha as with the rest of their frames. Yeah that Zero really was the start of things to come... that went? I still reckon its time for a change in the frame market, even if its a small one... Streety frames, seatposts (with a hole for a seat), head angle of the Ashton (cos its pretty perfect as far as im concerned), with short wheel base... an Inspired in 26" lol that would be near enough perfect perhaps!?... Im really hoping im not alone on this :$
-
TA26, silver one. Was a couple of years back I think?
-
Not a fan im afraid Adam. Ive had a Base in the past as well, didn't like that either haha, im not easily pleased
-
OK I was gonna get a 24", but the entire bike is gonna cost me a fortune, frankly money I dont have or that I need to use to put towards camera kit for work. So ive had the idea of simply changing my Ashton frame for a different, streety frame. No matter how many websites I go on, there's not one frame I have seen that isn't long, without a seat, Deng-ified... you get what I mean. Id just love to see a frame on the market that is for 26" that isnt for sidehops, gaps, drop-gaps and taps, or of the UCI persuasion. Bit of a rant I know but I was speaking with Leon Neil today and he's got hold of a Pace RC250T and an Orange Zero to blitz on (2nd maybe 3rd hand of course) - so its a cry-out from us streety, tech (ish) riders to manufacturers to start making these legendary types of frames again, as, frankly, I can't stand any of these 'modern' trials frames. Something like an Inspired would be great, but for 26" wheels that doesn't cost a fortune like Leech's signiture frame or the Reset. </rant>

Bloody wish I could Mike, just need to concentrate on job(s) this year, so Ive really got no time or money to travel

Purchase this camera! Not 3ccd but I have recently bought it as a 3rd camera/camera to record stuff from a bullet cam. Its 16:9, the quality is superb for a single CCD and its Sony, and it comes with a dock that you can capture footage and charge the battery from. Superb little camera, I've suggested this to Rich Pearson too. Oh, its touch-screen too Haha and another edit, you can also put any lenses on the front of it, wide, tele, fisheye etc - you just need a step-up ring - you usually get a selection with lenses these days anyway.

Bloody love that car dude, those rims very tasty! Bike aint bad either haha!
-
Roni Size for the win! (what the hell is '***?' - auto correction thing for f.t.w) Good riding there dude! Looking forward to more from you this year
-
Loved the manual line at the end! Christ, and so the circle continues... 24 or 20
-
Yes mate, loved that video!
-
Agreed, esp. the WMV codecs and things - I've been discussing this with Rich Pearson today, mighty annoying, cos not everybody can play the videos, and this is pathetic! Just use a lower bitrate, and dont use 720p, use 640 x 360 instead.
-
Yup she was fit, loved how her walk stride went with the music haha! Proper crisp video! Played fine for me. Can't for life of me think what camera was used, was tempted to say Canon... might be a Sony? Any info would be great, Goddard wants to know as well haha, us video geeks ay!
-
Yeah he'll do it again. Bad luck dude! Seriously looked painful! Get well soon if you are a bit broken!!
-
BUMP again, appologies! DVD came today, put it on. Wasn't impressed with the production as a whole! The riding was wicked in places, can't fault that! But I think its the fact they traveled so much is why the DVD cost so much to buy. I thought it was rubbish how it just ended after Ryan did that amazing chain ride! Also, it seemed like it was all out of perspective. The cameras they used are not widescreen, and yet they stretched it to widescreen - dunno if anybody else noticed this, its minor, but it annoyed me watching a whole DVD that has been compressed incorrectly. There was no flow in the editing and the music was custom composed, but poo haha! Overall, if you havn't bought it yet, don't bother, you wont like it, I didn't. Sorry Mr Leech!
-
RIP Oli! I only knew about his sad death a few weeks back when Andy P told me. I didn't know who he was, only the photo of him and that matt black Golf sort of jogged a memory, never met him though. I heard everything that happened though, tragic.
-
Nope I wasn't even drunk haha! Ive had a go on a few 24's and I just dont like any of them, no matter how mint they all look. Plus ive just ALWAYS wanted a 20" but Ive just never bought one cos ive had all 26" parts.
-
HAPPY NEW YEAR! Ive made the decision to go 20" this year, so I'll be selling off my Ashton at some point this month im sure.
-
Best thing to do is be honest, ring them, arrange payment, and also report the driver for unnecessary force.
-
- Start going to the gym - Sort my life (job/career) out - Try and ride more / maybe change my bike - Stop spending so much money - GET A NEW CAR... SOMEHOW!
-
Hobbsie! Legend! Im parking at the big Tescos which is about a 5 or 10min ride from the station. If you put 'Napier Road, Reading, UK' into Google Maps then its at the end of that road. P.S. - Weather has all of a sudden changed for the worse - http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/5day.shtml?id=3190
-
Ditto! Was proper surprised to see it in the film! Shame there was nothing related in the Extras.
-
Mavic for 26", without a doubt. Blows any Trials company rims into the sea. 20" wise I guess you're stuck with Echo etc... unless you can get hold of Arrow Racing rims still?
-
Like I said, don't buying anything from there cos the bikes and parts probably don't exist anymore
-
Looks like there's gonna be a good turn out for this! Ive not been on a ride in ages so im looking forward to this!
