muse-new born... while writing a new song came on milemarker-ant architect

aspire velotech probably.. you'll want Full HD kings anyway, with the steel driveshell, hd axle and funbolts. it's the only way...

drunk as shit with a girl who wasn't very attractive at all (met her same night) in a filthy sofa. it was terrible... meh. it's ok.

yeah. and i remember kolpens coust... trying it in björkvik. i was in love. ended up buying one..

Do you know what the thread size in the forks is Dan? Just out of interest, I cut my steerer about 20 mm and there's still enough thread, but if I wanna go any shorter...

i just replaced my tryall yourself bars, they're 4 years old now i think. i've snapped a frame and two sets of forks with them... not all tryall stuff is shite.

the white/orange one was the best looking one. i actually test rode that beast. i think twice even. such a lush bike it was unbelievable. rode even better than it looked...

troublesome kids. found hanging around in gangs, often wearing tracksuits, caps and tacky jewellry. often smoke and drink at very low ages. they love starting fights and robbing kids of their bikes. Stereotypical picture found randomly. Just look on urban dictionary or google or pics of danny kearns....

as far as i know, there is no kleivard footage in contact? he's in the sea otter comp part of evolve though, on the one with straight top tube.

hs11 levers are plastic, and they contain a larger hydraulic cylinder which leads to less power. avoid like the plague, i had a set and they were terrible!

k810.....

i know and i totally agree. i was just saying how a nice road cassette and a nice mech looks tonnes sweeter than all the bodged tensioners nowaways.. shame gears are shite for trials.

ooh, didnt see these before. i cant believe your kenny is still in one piece. come down at påsk!!!

am i the only one who still thinks a compact road cassette and a short cage xtr/dura-ace mech is totally hawt?

short backings => rounded pads. avoid..

narrow and wide kools (k810 and k710) are equally strong. they're good enough. i have only had good experiences with mine; they last and they're easy to take apart for shortening etc, with my normal cheapo chain tool.

word. the tk lads did bigger stuff 50 years ago than most kool kids do nowaways, with shitloads more style.... oh and danny just blew my mind.

i was such a good boy in school. been a right pikey in uni though. living out the pre-teen dreams.

i used to have a set of them red crv. brilliant pads. soooo stiff with thick backings and little pad. they lasted long aswell, easily a season back when i rode for 10 hours a week.

Was just about to say... I guess most of the people on here had no idea about trials back then. How did the original plaz alu backings hold on to the slaves, just out of interest? O-ring in groove design just like the kolpen/heatsink design?

lovely vid danny! nice with some fairlanes too.

aww, thanks guys. i haven't even started filming for the next one yet. may bring the cam out some day, now i've actually got some hdd space sorted so i can have more than 10 minutes of uncompressed material on at once.

Just got in... Have to be at uni at 8 for a very important briefing. whoops.

opinions? pointers? 200+ views and few replies..

Aluminium corrodes so little.. A protective layer of aluminium oxide forms pretty much immediately when exposed to a normal atmosphere, which stops further corroding taking place. Don't try and beat the engineer at his own game. For trials, Kings should be run on oil or dry. As we don't do a lot of miles you can get away with a hub that is almost dry. I use a bit of finishline wet xc, and it's fine.
