    Like it, except the square down tube. Although it looks about as strong as a wet paper bag.

    For £235 I think you could have done a lot better for a frame, but if you are 13, well done.
  3. Oh yeh! Sweet bike, love Pitbulls.
  4. I don't know anything about BMX's, but even I think that is ugly. Koxx should stick to what they know best- Trials.
  5. Tried it today for a while again, and once I had my levers set up right and my brakes adjusted properly I got on fairly well. Jus need to get used to it now and I should improve, hopefully! :)
  6. What I founf though was that my lever was too far out to comfortably pull, and it was hard to pull it with one finger, but my TPA is fuuked, so it is hard to adjust where the lever sits etc. and when i adjust the brakes in the mounts to change my lever position my braking powere totally disappears. How can I sort it? Hope that made sense!!
  7. If its going to cost £140+, then why not just buy one off there from the UK, would be much easier.
  8. Hi. Ever since I started riding I have had 2 fingers on my brake levers whilst doing everything. Ive been told that it is better to have 1 on. Whats are the advanatges/disadvantages to both? I have tried it tonight for a while, it was ok, but I found it hard to pull the lever hard enough every time, and even fell off whilst gapping from a curb to a road!! Cheers. :lol:

    'Please do not be willys saying that it is crap please. I have had to work bloody hard to get that and I am quite impresed for my age :lol: .' How old are you? How much did you pay for the frame? I think you could have done better, that frame looks bloody awful, but if you like it thats all that matters.

    Saracen Mad

    Nice. Chop the seatpost down if there is room to. (Y) Whats the rear hub?
  11. Mine is normal headset size, and red. Really good condition if you are interested. Pics if you want. (Sorry if I have the wrong end of the stick and you have already oredered a new one lol)
  12. I have a reefer frame I dont use (For sale, with forks, bar and stem and headset/Bb) , I can check if you want me to. Although I am sure they have a normal headset in them.
  13. Sounds nice. I Like Leesons. Really Smooth. Make sure you get some pics up when its complete.
  14. I've not had any mod exerience, and don't know hardly anything about them, but I think that they look gorgeous, better than the XTP's, although it all depends how they ride i suppose.

    Trials Park

    They sound like good ideas, maybe some of you could post pics up of the sort of things other councils have built for you so we can show ours the sort of thing we would like. Would probably help us loads. Cheers. (I ride with Oli By the way, not just a random person))

    Are you after stickers? If yu peel your current stickers off and take them toa signmakers, they can run some more off exactly the same. I did it and they look great.

    My New Ride

    Thanks people. Pic doesnt really do the bike must justice, and could do with being a bit bigger, but is only the second pic i uploaded, and is the biggest that the forum would let me upload. Don't know why, probably me :">

    Hi Everyone. Just thought I would show you all my new(ish) bike, quick spec: 04 Brisa B26 Onza Tuf Guys Maggies Shimano Deore on Mavid D521, front and rear Truvativ FiveD cranks. Hopefully soon going to be upgradind wheels and cranks to something more trials specific, ie. Hope, Middleburn. Ride really nice, smooth, and has helped me improve a bit. What do you lot think? Cheers. P.S. Please dont tell me its made of monkey metal as I already know, but it seems fine to me.

    04 Brisa B26
  21. If you took the wheels off, wouldnt a mod fit into a big rucksack? Might have to take the bars off too.

    My Pashley!

    Have you seen your signiature mate? lol. Anyway, the bike, sexy, but not keen on the pink either.
  23. IWould have thought It would be very heavy, but probably strong enough for trials use.
  24. Would probably help if you put a pic up if you or your mate have one.
