  1. you know argos or somwhere like that sell pogosticks for a lot cheaper right??
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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!
  5. enter comps or ride more natural...sorted
  6. bad side sidehops and gaps to rear are my weak points
  7. weight forwards and dont go flat, I do the gap like an arc, it helps a lot
  8. 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!
  9. good shnizzle joe! nice rail gaps, look scary!
  10. 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!
  13. question still stands! I need examples
  14. heh heh might be....new question, whats the difference between a shade and a tone?
  15. actually is isn't, its technically known as a tone
  16. seems a pretty low/short setup for that bike
  17. I have to admit, I have been disapointed at some stuff wayne has said on here BUT I have known him for about 6 years now and know that hes a really nice guy and has helped out loads! I wish you luck for the hearing dude (just go a little easy on the typing before you think in the future buddy )

    First Car Wtf

    yes yes yes....306 TD ***! This is my 3rd car, but its easily the best I have had, nice to drive, nippy, doesnt dring fuel, engines last forever. They are a nice size too, with the split rear seats you can get 3 people and 3 bikes in no problems even leaving the rear wheels in. I went to france with 3 people and 3 bikes...over 1000 miles and not one problem. they do have one bad point though, the electrics are a bit naff, my rear window heater has never worked, the passenger side window doesnt go back up when using the drivers side controls and the indicator noise randomly goes on if lots of electrics are being used. Pretty cheap insurence too, I am 23 and its costs me £440 a year, the same as my 1ltr 106 did last year.
