VERY good riding! I had only started riding at 15 and I still cant do stuff like that at 20 :- top stuff (Y)

mine is currently sitting in pieces after the left tab snapped off (the bit the fork sits on), its proving to be a royal pain in the ass to get a new part. I dont blame it for breaking though, it happened when my forks snapped at the disk mount and flexed forward, not many hubs could withstand that. I am sure mine cost me more like £20?

wide bars Pro: good controle opens up your chest, so can breath more air (dubious) Con: wider bars make you tired quicker (try doing press ups with your arms far apart) can possibly snap easier heavier cant fit through tight areas Narrow(er) bars Pro: ergonomic (to get a starter measurment, do a press up in the most comfortable position and measure how far apart your hand are) lighter less likley to snap can fit in narrow areas Con: not as much controle chest is more closed, so less air (again dubious) I have found a happy comprimise at 27.5"

I think that bike fell out of the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down then fell in a puddle of uglyness. interesting forks though :P

yes I do ride on my own most of the time (weekdays), I am building it because there is sod all to ride without being able to drive anywhere.

I am in the middle of building a trials course, I have collected 35 pallets, a 20ft long telegraph pole and some over wooden things I found in the basement. I am hopfully going to get lots more pallets, railway sleapers, wooden moulds, cable reels, fence posts etc etc. I am gonna be having them in my field which is on a slope, so its gonna take ages to get it all sorted out, but then I will have uphill and downhill runups at things which is good practise.

Heres mine, dont know what it is (If you know please tell me). I swapped it for a bike a couple of years ago. I am wanting to get a new one now.
