  1. question: What is a sponsored riders job? Answers in an envolope please.
  2. I am really astonished by the actions of a sponsored rider!
  3. I enjoyed it. It's a shame there was such a small turnout though. I thought the sections were cool, the weather was (too) hot and I got to eat a HOG ROAST! Getting 2nd behind Savage was cool too. Was cool to put some faces to names and have a laugh with mates.
  4. Rockman Isis is VERY close Geo and a Hydroxx is the same.
  5. my wallet cost 99p If the wallet had cards and shniz in, I would hand it in (with the £10) if it had no important cards in, I would keep it.
  6. Yep, all to scale (5:1 if I remember correctly)
  7. All of the BB7s I have had died when they got a drop of water on them, the ONLY disk I had that was good in the wet was the oldskool Hope Mini.

    Gaps To Front

    do the gap in an arc (IE don't just gap flat) imagine you're trying to clear an object in the middle that slightly higher than your take off and landing. Keep your weight forward and grab a load of front brake.

    Tribalzine News

    No way as good looking as the Slate, in fact I would almost go as far as saying its one of the ugliest frames I have seen
  10. I am glad people like it! I know I do! Can't wait to have the updated version with horizontal dropouts (it MUST have them lol). I have seen pictures of the planned stickers and I think they look amazing! Think a more subtle 1499 in gray colours. Oh, I don't think it should have disk mounts, it saves weight and looks 100x better! If anyone wants a ride this weekend down south, just ask. PS, I am as every bit as "special" as that picture makes out!
  11. I am another person who has never had a disk work in the wet! Thats one reason I have moved to a front vee!
  12. hmm, I never personally found that compound to have great hold, they have bags of bite and noise, but not hold hence why I am not running it even though I have a small basket full of the pad compound.
  13. you havn't seen anything yet! I'll whip it out next time I see you!
  14. school, man that was a long time ago! I left when I was 14/15 (that's 10 years ago!) Hated every second I was there! I did work experience at Orange Mountain bikes, that was ACE! I got to build up really nice bikes, paint them,watch Steve Wade design them in CAD, got to see the frames getting welded and heat treated and at lunch time we would nip out to the woods behind and ride some DH.

    Forks

    I can't remember if they are in stock or not, but Trialtech forks have some of the longest rake out there so would go someway towards making your bike longer...maybe a tad expensive for you though, but they are well worth it as they are also some of the strongest forks out too.
  16. not cut but I put "other" as my vote as my skin didn't grow when my dick did so my skin doesn't reach over my bell so it kinda looks like I am cut. Can still wank as normal though (oh, and about the rubbing on pants thing, Its just what your used to really, its not a problem if its been like that all you adulthood).
  17. cheers guys These are all from imagination, but obviously some are based upon existing frames in Xc and DH
  18. something that begins with T and ends in tech and is welded
  19. I would deffo recommend the Trialtech forged 20". Its slightly lower than the other Atomz or Try-all oversized stems but you can still use a normal topcap unlike with the Monty 219 or Try-all NUC stem (which are really meant for flat bars anyway).
  20. they are monty 219 bars. They have a oversized 31.8mm clamp (pretty much the industry standard in trials). The bars are fairly tall, so I would recommend a slighty lower stem, something along the lines of the Trialtech forged, Monty 219 stem or the Try-all NUC.
  21. macaroni cheese and tomato sauce! SOOOO NICE!
