Haha, yeah they are Try-all foam grips, same thing with a different logo. They wear out to quick for me so now using Dmr Zip grips, first rubber grips ive used for about 6 month and i really like them. nice and soft! Headtube length is 125mm Stan.

The rear tyre is a Hansventure, and i think the logo is on the other side

Koxx greens Awesome in the wet aswell! and ofcourse there on a grind

My front end is pretty low at the moment, and i like it. Im guna try a slightly higher front end and see what its like. Set the bike up how u want it, and play about with different settings like bar positions stem heights. Pretty much everyone who rode my bike liked it, so they cant be poo

Beast video Joe. Some very nice riding, i didnt know people are allowed to ride Knabb in "out of comp" times, also Matlock qaurry looks dam good. Wouldnt mind riding there. Anyway sweet video Joe

Very good riding, nice one kyle. Good song although it has been used by Tra Not really keen on songs that have been used in a video before, it kinda makes the video less interesting. Anyway tis your best video yet easy.

Basically the course wasn't upto scratch, was abit unsafe in places. With it pissing down the course was fairly dodgy to say the least! TartyBikes had a beast stand indoors. The riders who turned up just messed about on the course for free. Alot of riders had gone off to find street by 2pm, leaving me, martin, damon watson, ben lee to ride the course, so we changed it around and got some decent riding in. Better luck next time.. Oh yeah, was really good meeting up with everyone, and seeing some new people.

What day is everyone setting off? We are thinking early monday... but not sure yet. Also do we have to fill in any forms at all before going? We want to do the comp on the last day and will be camping for the week. Any ideas on how much camping is? Also just to check, im pretty sure we need this, but do we need the International BIU license to compete? Thanks for any help.. Stan.

Nah these were taken about a week before the Pro2t went on.. Also not running a booster now.

Im looking forward to the ymsa this year! Carsington is pretty good, the rocks are more technichal i think, just last year it was really windy and cold so it made it abit harsh. If its sunny at Carsington, it will be good i think. The last indoor round sounds really good! Cant wait.

Adam at TartyBikes has a prototype 180mm Monotrial rotor on test on the rear of his Kot, to overcome some problems people have been having, its much meatier, has more arms which are wider. There are less sharp edges to reduce stress. The actual braking area is bigger too, so performance is improved! You can see a 200mm version on the Tartybikes stand at Cycology, or can test the one out for yourself on Adam's Kot which he'll be taking with him. Stan.

Where abouts is Cow & Calf? I know where Addingham is, but wouldnt mind checking this place out, can anyone give me a few directions? Cheers, Stan.

Most stylish crash ever!

I wish! The first spot in the video is about 30mins away in the car. Lake Ogwen is the second spot but thats over 2hrs away, really amazing place to ride. The last clip is from Addingham. Thanks for the feeback! Stan.

Wonder what TRA can do? Thats a nice gap Ali by the way.

Sweet pics Phil. Beast gap. Need to sort a ride out sometime

Thanks for the feedback so far people This is a fairly chilled video, and i wanted to use that natural footage up. Editing a full street video atm, but need more footage, dont ride much street though haha. Oh yeah and the Pro2T does sound nice! Oh and the tensioner thing, im using a Rohloff tensioner, its a beast!! Cap has my Fresh products one, but i'll be fitting gears soon Stan

A new shortish natural video filmed in Cleveleys, Lake Ogwen and a clip from Addingham 3mins 30 - 35meg Filename is "Stan Arctic" the one at the top. Link to video Alternative Link to Video Comments appreciated! Cheers, Stan.

What format is it going to be run in? Please can someone explain how its going to be judged, if its one rider at a time etc.. or a few?
