must say its one of the best looking boosters I have seen!! soooo sleak.

ha ha, I wasnt happy, I had been riding for about half an hour and hardly made any moves I tried, I thought I was going to get raped in the comp. That low tap just pushed me over the edge, good job I sorted myself out for the actual trial. PS some nice hooks and taps by you at the start

ha ha, that tap was a little nerverecking I was pretty impressed with some of the stuff you were doing by the gate shame you retired. I was a little worried before the comp as I was riding like a right muppet, but as soon as I got in the sections I sorted myself out. I did my first lap with 4 dabs, but a 5 spoilt my 2nd lap, I cleaned the rest bar one dab. finnished on 10 dabs in elite I thought the sections were good, very fun to ride even if the weather tried to put a downer on things. I wish they didnt combine the 20" with 26" though, I would have come first then instead of 3rd

I took off just right from the lucazade bottle. Cant remember if I made it that time, but I did make it other times

looking good Joe looks like the frame suits you a lot more than previous ones. Its also really nice to see another ashton in use. keep it up

coolio video You can kinda see you improve as you watch it....I really liked the song too, makes such a difference to all the death metal stuff that some people put on vids. as you said quality isnt great, but at least everything else is good.

might as well get a frame first, but just do yourself a favour and DONT get the GU.

another one who doesnt like it I just so utterly hate those frames, worst riding things I have been on. Plus they are ugly PLUS with the green rims its even uglier sorry dude

thanks for the link, shame I dont understand anything thats in it

Cheers craig, your a top geezer About divX though, I downloaded the converter, but apparenly it was only a trial virsion and it wants me to pay for it now, so I was just wondering if anyone had the proper virsion or a serial number to save me some dosh

I am REALLY trying to make a vid from footage a few weeks ago. It wasnt my camcorder so I have been sent the footage on a cd (thanks Craig!! (mr cbproductions on here)) The audio on the cd is a bit messed, all I can here is white noise. Fortunatly Craig sent me the audio seperatly on the same cd. The only problem is they are different lengths, the audio is longer than the footage. I have deleted the origional audio on premire and Craig sugested I export the footage and new audio as that will get the timing right (at least thats how I understood it) I did it once and I think it worked, but theres another problem which I need to get over...... ....The footage on the cd is fine when I open it in a media player, but as soon as its on premire it goes all jerky and has no audio WTF IS UP WITH IT!! I REALLY want to make this vid, but I am on the verge of throwing the computer out of the window at the mo. Craig has been really helpful, but it cant hurt to get a few opinions. ALSO has anyone got divX converter I can get off them? or even a serial number (if that will work on any?) cheers guys

Stans good toooo, dont forget him lol

I wasnt going to vote as I was playing a very important game of ssx tricky, but my dad made me go I voted green party as I like the colour and the box was at the bottom of the page so I didnt have to lift my arm as far.

I love it, looks sooooo fun to ride!!! really nice looking too, I love the colour.

haha, you always get the ugliest pics of me dont you I guess the caveman look doesnt help either. They are wickid pics though, came out reet nice

mark makes me cry

ohhh blimey, I am VERY tired from riding yesterday, I may come, may not....it will keep you on the edge of your seats.

I am NEVER EVER running a rohloff chain again!!! I had the trials virsion and I snapped it after 3 weeks and it put me in hospital. It snapped across the plate too, so it wasnt down to how it was put together by me. I now run only kmc kools (8spd virsion) I have snapped a couple, but I still trust them more than other chains.

oi!!! you promised not to show that!!!

hey hey!! wasnt expecting any on tonight, that some fast work I think they have turned out dam well, they are quality!! That crash pic is funny and that last photo doesnt count as natural, even if we were in a quarry

yes, I hit a wall regually. it happens in every sport, my dad was a top class runner and would find the same..... As he puts it, you dont improve gradually, you improve in steps. Now you can be on a step for anywhere from a week to years then over night somthing changes and your up another step. I improved in 2004 then went on a step for over a year, not getting many good comp results or anything, but last month I went another step and I am a LOT better than I was last year. Stick with it, you will get better, its a case of when.

I dont rate odi style lock-ons, they are too fat, they wobble even when done up, there is a metal collor on the outside of the grip, just where I like to put my hand and the bolts arn't the strongest ever. The best lock-on grips I have used are Massi ones off ebay (virsion 1) they are just held with two grub screws on one end, leaving the other free of any uncomfy bolts.....They dont spin either and the grub screws are super hard to round off. Take a look at the new dmr Lock-ons, I think they are prtty much the same.

yes

but that will just be the standard axle and freehub wont it? its at least £100 more than that for the extras.

they are good, I used them for 4 years (mostly the same hub) without much trouble, the only thing that when wrong was a couple of snapped axles. BUT I dont think they are £100 better than a hope. No snapped axles, stiffer wheel and stiffer engagment (you can really feel it!) and a main thing for me they are BRITISH Both good hubs, but I still rate hope as being the one to get
