  2. TNN Blues, he's sponsored by TNN.
  3. Cheers for the comments guys, glad you like the vid! The 'Brakeless for the win' thing was just something random Stan did and thought it would be fun to film...
  4. Nope, he has brakes, clearly...
  5. Thanks for the comments guys, glad you like the video! Slinger is indeed a weapon, hopefully will make some more vids of him in the near future...
  6. Hello all, Here's a video I made of an evening's ride in Blackburn with Ben Slinger. Filmed in an hour and a half, edited in an hour... So it's pretty simple. What's in the video is pretty much all I filmed, almost everything is pulled first time, Ben is such a machine, haha. Hope you like! Cheers, Adam
  7. You betcha, just say the word!
  8. like to have actual grips rather than just holding onto your bars,
  9. Next working day to you in the USA for £47, usually before 10:30am unless you are in a remote area (obviously the Icelandic angry volcano has put paid to that sort of speed for the moment, but that's the usual drill!)
  10. Cool So, in trials, it's the same - no brakes = you have to commit more (plus the other 'benefits' listed above), brakes = more consistent. Everyone's a winner! I'd have thought you would embrace this Phil, as an oldskool rider yourself! Getting 'bored' of trials and making it a new, fun challenge is what brakeless is about for me. I'll never be much good at it (certainly nowhere near as good as Rowan, Stan, Ali C, Ben Travis) but I don't care as long as I can enjoy riding again.
  11. Yep: http://tartybikes.co.uk/media.php?group=guides&id=1 - 1:30 Mins onwards. As said, a TR sprocket will probably do the job, or flipping your Trialtech one and sticking a slim spacer in.
  12. You could say the same about brakeless BMX then, there is no point as it makes it harder/impossible to do certain tricks? (Not meant to be argumentative - just making a point!)
  13. It's like learning to ride trials all over again, but in fast forward. You start off completely useless and feel scared of everything, but you learn so fast - that's what makes it fun for me! Can be frustrating at times, but if you look at obstacles with no expectations that's the best way to look at it. I think you do need a fairly high level of 'standard' trials competence though, as it's way too difficult if you're trying to learn the basics at the same time.
  14. They will fit - it's a BMX hub The bolts are 3/8" (9.625mm I think) and the hole on the cams is 10mm.
  15. Another tweak: Even more updated? Matte black that doesn't look black in this photo...
  16. It's the same as the Try-All, but with holes for extra 'snap in half across the holes'ness...
  17. Yeah, they aren't meant to cover your ankles.
  18. Correctamundo. For some setups, the front actually works better than the rear on the rear.
  19. Haha, I'm not really good enough to sustain a full video yet (This was Mark by the way!) Cheers though
  20. The clue is in the name - the 108.9 has 108 engagements and 9 pawls, the 36.6 has... you get the idea
