QUALITY!!!!! I love it janson, awesome. music was somehow perfect

is this the right kind of tool? found it through the other topic about freewheels. might not be right though but if it is 7 quid isnt too expensive

I was silly and had a too short chain on =/ i actually got it on but obviously the brake mounts weren't made for that haha. now i'm running it as it should be and its working fine. tensioners work really well too

Cheers, seems like people like it =) Mads did a good job editing this. The move by Björn at 1:42 is huge, really weird aswell.. He's good at those things, and static to back wheel, smooth and precise aswell. As demanded, about the Toxsin 20": Obviously short, easy to control and to get the front up, but theres less space behind the bars. I've got my bars quite high, might also affect the feel. Bunnyhops are really nice, quick up and then the short frame allows you to land with your body very far back / push the bike up. Wheelswap as having the front high and swap is harder, just because it's short. Wheelswap/front to back, like landing on the front and swiching is easy aswell, at least the switch itself. At first everything felt abit higher and further away, becasue you always compare the obstacle to the bike, don't you? gaps might feel bigger that thay are , my gaps havent gone smaller though.Some things good some things bad. Its really hard to put words to everything, since it's mostly how it feels... Now i'm quite well used to the bike, still havent tried everything though. I dont really feel restricted by the bike now, although i was abit worried at first. http://www.peterbackgren.com/toxsin/bike1.jpg http://www.peterbackgren.com/toxsin/bike2.jpg http://www.peterbackgren.com/toxsin/bike3.jpg http://www.peterbackgren.com/toxsin/bike4.jpg http://www.peterbackgren.com/toxsin/bike5.jpg Peter

hello Mads from denmark stayed at mine for a week around new years, for some indoor riding. this video is from then, and fetures me, Björn Levin, Johan Brundin, Robert Janson and Mads himself. big moves and some tech stuff, and i really like his editing, his full topic on OTN with 2 pics: http://www.observedtrials.net/vb/showthread.php?t=17958 direct linkt to video, hosted on Björns server, fast: http://www.wopsa5.com/~bjornle/NewYearAreaRides2.mpg cheers

I was just going to post about that. when i tried opening TN is downloaded a filel, tried to preview it as a picture but couldnt so it closed both the pivture preview programm and IE. After a few seconds AVG anti-virus detects a Virus/Trojan and deleted it. tried 3x in IE and it downloaded it every time, automatically. in Mozilla though, it asked me if i wanted to download it. Obviosly No, since it's a *.wmf file and there's been loads of security warnings about those files the last week. Go Mozilla!

www.moposite.com for everything Elma related! awesome site with WR's , inhuman replays and levels.

no helmet makes it bad for anything that goes out to the public. but i very much like the picture. there's something weird about the riders position in the air, but i cant tell what. The flash/light source looks cool from there. EDIT: his arm covers a bit of the face.

I'm quite sure it has to do with that there are more riders. You progress much faster if you ride together with someone, and have more fun riding. For now it seems like people in the UK are focused on going big, and the biggest names at the moment are the guys that make the biggest moves and crazieszt video, so of course people try to ride like them. I'm not from the UK either, but I've been over to ride for a few times and talk with lots of british riders,

In (D)English: AORTA 26 inches frames frames: Spread of axies 1075mm, latter forks length 380mm, middle axle high 35mm, the frame has the certain length, but cannot too long control with difficulty, the middle axle obviously is higher than the core, but cannot excessively be high, can adapt each kind of different type slighting the law with the tidal current, specially suitablly slights the law the flexible rider. The frame surface high polishes the titanium gray, the anti- oxide coating, will not be able to have the oxidized phenomenon in the course of time, some four nails oil will only check the place edition. Frame characteristic: Intensity extremely high, the process intensity test, is hard incomparably, highly anti- turns the nature, the entire vehicle cannot become tender, is hit not not instable. It certainly doesn't make much sence....

I love it have had it on repeat since i first got it

ouch... Chai: "it has probably snapped"

cool video, good riding. music wasn't what i usually like, but it worked well had almost forgotten that you've had a bashplate

sounds bad, hope he'll get well quick

shame about the crackling sound... sidehops were huge, the rest was cool aswell. love the gap to the wooden fence. the tune was also really cool, well nice short video. davetrials: photoshop maybe? or just someone holding the bike and then just letting off just before you take the photo, it works since the bike stays up for a few seconds...(tried it)

the last one of Andrei is awesome =) looks like a big gap

To stay in Elite or Masters you have to participate in at least 1 worlds round every year, or have something to prove you have been sick or injured. I do not believe that all of those master riders should be in Masters. Not many of them competed this year and not many of the rest had a valid reason to stay in Masters. I can't remember everyone, but did Akrigg and Ashton really compete this year? I know at least one of them has been injured, but the last i heard none of the UK riders have sent in the neccessary papers to stay in Masters. .... EDIT: yeah phil, the world records seem abit strange.... All records are achieved on Monty bikes, and some stuff is just not big enough. The "vertical step" records are old but shit they're massive I've seen the 20" record on video, with that german dude. The 175cm's by Ot Pi in 2000 would be cool to see... And i'm sure 175 can be beaten by someone now, 5 years later on. Vince was close but didn't make it in Czech ...

even I have a railcard Although i only spent 8 days in UK it saved me lots of money.

More people will afford it... ok. someone was quicker ...

Look at the Toxsin stock bikes, they have a few different colored stickers. Sivler, black, grey, thsoe kind of colors. I'm not sure, but I guess you could get hold of a set of these and put on the frame if you like.

http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=66666 This is an evil thread :closedeyes: Why have you got a zoo bike when everything you post on forums seem very anti-deng? What video camera do you use?

The rim has been ground loads of times and is quite easy to dent now; I would never do that to a rim which isn't almost dead anyway... :) PS. Stress cracks... I don't know yet, will be interesting to find out :santa:

Right, I was bored last night. When talking to Felix Mücke he showed me a photo of his rim he had filed squares in and told me he did it when he was bored. So, I got out in the shed starting to drill :lol: What do you think? Anyway, it's random. And I did it last night between 11pm and 3am using a 3.5mm drill and a few small files. The rest of the holes are 13mm. /Peter

What noone can see from that photo of the BB area is that the bash plates don't screw right into the aluminum below the BB. I've seen a photo of the BB area without the plates mounted, and it seems like the bolts go into a threaded cylinder in the center of a larger rubber cylinder that will absorb the shock just like the rubber blocks do on standard bashes.

ok ok, seems like most people like it =) thanks
