  1. reminds me of the old gt flatland bikes. I like it
  2. good shit, your just trying to make me jelous of not going Craigs bike is looking neat? Is that a new echo lite I spot? Glad stan got that sidehop, I know he was eager to get it after he was injured last time and didnt try it.
  3. he could still save weight by having alu bolts in his maggie bleed holes, an alu bolt in is top cap (unless its just a silver slue one) a lighter headset, ti axles for his pedals and so on.
  4. you know argos or somwhere like that sell pogosticks for a lot cheaper right??
  5. rock pad greens in cnc backings with a very light grind WILL be the most powerful brake out, thats not an opinion, thats a fact.
  6. I dont feel the weight savings are mainly for going bigger, but more for being able to ride at a high level for longer, the lighter the bike, the longer you can ride it without becoming tired.
  7. its just the design of the brake. When the wheel is being pushed backwards through a maggie, the pads get pushed off the rim, with a vee, the pads get pushed onto the rim which increases hold. You may think its all just pants and we dont need the hold, but once I tried a vee, theres no going back!
  8. enter comps or ride more natural...sorted
  9. bad side sidehops and gaps to rear are my weak points
  10. weight forwards and dont go flat, I do the gap like an arc, it helps a lot
  11. cool stuff stan, nice that its finally finnished. I cant belive how light and flicky it is, its so effortless to ride (and endo to face lol) its very nice looking too. PS, zoo forks have nothing on atomz!
  12. good shnizzle joe! nice rail gaps, look scary!
  13. winning a round of the world champs was my fave moment, plus being 3rd overall is cool. Being brit champ back in 2004 was nice being invited to ride at the bikeshow in 2005 was also enjoyable out ranking vince and the cousts at biu comps is nice being number 4 in europe is cool

    Hdv - Tra

    I don't normally reply in vids because I am lazy BUT I had to reply to this one as its quite possibly the best nicest trials vid I have seen....ever! Amazing riding, sometimes I can be a bit blazey (sp?) about vids as I have seen so many vids of the same thing, but I have to say that nearly every move in that vid impressed me, its not just the hugness, its the picking out lines that normal riders dont see. Combined with the amazing editing, quality and great music it was a REALLY good vid......I cant wait for the dvd!
  16. question still stands! I need examples
  17. heh heh might be....new question, whats the difference between a shade and a tone?
  18. actually is isn't, its technically known as a tone
