Dont loose anything really. You gain more fluidity with the sus when your rebounding off things onto other obstacles. Front taps are still doable... erm, they just weigh a tiny bit more than most rigids, but its summot u learn to like. I have, at least. Thanks! Jonny.

Thanks man, its nicer to ride than the 'thing' I was riding before. Jonny.

I did get some Pashley forks with it, but the riding position was so low and uncomfortable, so I put my trusty Marzocchi MX Comp Air's on, and its bloody lush. I believe this bike is more 'me'. Seems ive just been experimenting for the last 7 or so years with what kind of setup I like :D Sorry if im not allowed to post pics directly into this sub-forum, but im dead chuffed with it! Feel free to move to bike pics section. Comments? (Y) Jonny.

Hehe, yea, got some footage. The Engage video will prob be out before my next one... (Y) Jonny.

Well, you dont need any other options mate, its prob why your videos are kinda low quality... as far as I can remember. Microsoft DV AVI gives you 720 x 576 frame size, which is DV standard. Then you just need a 44100hz sound bitrate - you'll see it on the audio tab, then you're done. But if your method works then cool beans (Y) Jonny.

Check this beast of a photo. Nice one Fletch!! Jonny.

No you dont. You need Microsoft DV AVI. Add me to msn? Jonny.

Myself and John Shrewsbury will be attending. Ill be filming, plus I needed to get away from my computer for a day or so. I take it we're meeting 11am at the station? John gets in at 11.18. Jonny.

Somebody put it on Trials-Shack? Pretty please with a cherry on the top, maple syrup and sugar :angry: EDIT: Got it! Now thats what I call a video! Awesome, love Gav's style! Ive not heard from Mr Shrewsbury in a while, anybody know what hes up to? Jonny.

You've got it. Premiere is pretty poop itself at making mpeg's or anything, and not everybody likes wmv. So yea - Click Here and get the version at the top - Version 2.524. Add me to msn: msn@trialmedia.co.uk and I will send you an important settings template. This should solve your problems. Jonny.

Really welll put together video (Y) Nice to see a good variety of riding as well as some rather large moves :D In my opinion, those one-handers should be burnt. Fatmike has properly rinsed the 'showman' trick up until now, and it personally doesn't do anything for me... but dont stop it on my account... you probably wont. Ohh yea, and the thing about the file size, all you have to do next time mate is make an mpeg from it? Or were you using Windows Movie Maker? Keep it up though dude, look forward to the next vid! Jonny.

Enjoyed the video, but perhaps too many stacks? Always good to see a rider trying stuff though! The leeson does seem a little too long to be doing some of those moves... its probably just me though. Keep it up! >_< Jonny.

Only just this minute watched it Dan, AWESOME! Some seriously ill riding, music went really well with it! Thought it was funny how many bikes you can ride in only one video haha! Look forward to the next realease! Jonny.

Yea Im with Wayne. Gonna sound harsh, maybe insultive, but I think all the 'hoppy' riders on here that have no interest in styling it up or putting any kind of bmx/dirt influence into their riding, im sorry but you're going to get bored with it all soon. IMO, street/bmx style is the way forward.. and for me I can express myself better, and Im sure that goes for everybody else who loves concrete. Although, some pure Trials is fun sometimes! Dont hate me :P EDIT: OK, people posted words to the effect of what I typed before I hit reply, so sorry if it seems like a continuous moan lol! Jonny.

The camera was on the tripod, i just held the tripod in one hand trying to get my face and point of view in the camera's view... if that makes sense? It did get boring towards the end, cos i lost inspiration as my lovely Mum had pissed me off half way through editing, which is never a good thing.. so I lost any kind of flow I had at the start of the video, editing wise. Thanks people! Jonny.

Thanks for all the comments guys, and sorry for bumping the thread back up. Really appreciate everything everybody said! :D As for all the Super 8, ive got my Kodak projector working and im basically projecting the S8 film onto my bedroom wall and filming it with my DV camera, its coming out great! The S8 from the Memorial ride is most likely in Switzerland by now being processed, so I hope to get it back late next week. My computer is being a bit of a batty boy atm, so im gonna get a kinda duel boot thing going, so i can have a hard disc for just Premiere and nothing else... seems the only solution really... although Im gonna be saving for a PowerBook G4 and Final Cut Pro 5... bring on a summer of working non stop :P Anyways, nuff of my essay antics! Thanks people! Jonny.

Hehe, love the suspension, way forward in some respects. Tiny bit heavier that rigids, but hey, never mind lol! Jonny.

Ta guys, yea, drop was done too many times, I agree haha! I think im gonna stop doing the whole continuity thing, cos it just gets boring I recon, its just i couldnt really think of anything else to film where I was.. so. Ta guys! Jonny.

I know people have posted help, but why the hell should people have to help out if that bloody site was any good! Its so frustrating! Scrap it and design in ONCE AGAIN! I'll edit when ive downloaded the video Thomas! (Y) EDIT: Pretty sweet riding dude, especially on top of those roofs, nutter! Seems the frame is working for you, even if it does look like its come from far out-a-space! Jonny.

Hi all, Went out again this afternoon to a different town near me, Aldershot (or Aldershite as its commonly known as... pikies, chavs etc). But yea, put this together, nothing too amazing, but non-the-less a new video. (Y) Left Click Thanks to Lord Fryer for his webspace! :D Enjoy people! Jonny.

HOLY MOTHER F***ING HELL! Sorry but that was the sickest wadge of riding ive ever seen...ever! Hats off to Sir Chris of Akkers Towers! Jonny. :(

Wicked riding! Thats about it really Mike! Sorry to be so harsh, but I couldn't stand the video as a whole. Music was shocking, but then people could say that about some of my videos, and I thought it was slightly over-edited, twas almost like Genesis all over again, which is a bad thing. Apart from the music and 90% of the editing, the riding rocked! Could see you were putting on pure showmanship at the Bike Show, nice one! (Y) Good luck with the next release, and I hope I've been constructive in some way. Jonny.

Quite tempting. Ive finished Uni for the Summer and always need more footage... or do I? ^_^ Im really not sure, £6.50 for parking, plus £15 petrol :P Jonny.

OMFG, thats so true! Tim's a mate, nuff sed. But yes, Leech is a God, he made me change my style of riding... as I was lost... still am a bit... but yes, he's the Trials equivalent. Jonny.

What's that then? ...just ellaborate a little :mellow: Jonny.
