Trials tom_s

Swindon rider... AKA - stu is pretty good at wall rides... if you ever get to speak to him...maybe he cud help with a few pointers... i seen him do sum lush wallrides! think he laernt ...wall riding fences in his garden or something.. shud imagine they give a lil.. might help..who knows! Tom :P

Yeah look at the f*ckin size of it!!! thats kids quite small and its looking rather short on him.. imaginbe a guy the size of the blue coated one in the background on it!! lmao. it looks quite tidy and a good spec. Tom.

Got my mail tartridge.. you know.. i didnt even realise you were one and the same person!!! god im blonde.. ps - msg passed to my girlfriend bout the sport i'll grow out of!! lol.. tart...profile rear hubs have less engagement then ENO's.. so apart from the fact you dont get you trousers caught.. whats makes them worth twice the price.. i never had a go on a profile..and only the smallest go on an ENO. i wear 3/4's so the trouser thing dont bother me.. just trying to put into prespective.. whats available and why everyone seems to want profile. mail me buddy! cheers (Y)

cool... sounds good!! so what rims shud i buy then.. because koxx rims dont work do they? i wud really like to keep with red rims though.. suggestions? Tom (Y)

like i said ... i aint sure!! but i will post later 2nite or something.. i'lll give it a test 2! then give you a mini sized review.

I wear shin pads... and always will!! couldnt imagine riding without them.. whats wrong with that!!? i dont reckon im a girl...so what you saying!!? lmao... all you riders on here that wear shin pads.. ch!p's just called you all girls!!! Now you done it!!! (Y) only messing buddy! :) ;)

Koxxy chill buddy!! im gonna back you because you a mate of nadine's!!! nick we also mates... think you were a lil harsh calling him a chav etc... but koxxy point taken... i aint saying you a chav.. but the pic you used didnt portray you as well as it could of if you get me. us car freaks get alot of stick... when i was a cruiser etc... people us to look at me ..and my modded car and think "willy ".. i often kicked off like u.. but now you just gotta let it go! i now have a escort cosworth thats raced preped with 300bhp.. and has the full WRC look..even got carbon fibre bucket seats and rollcage and fire extingishers etc. so...who had the last laugh.. while they spent out and smoked and drank their money away.. i now have a car..which is worth atleast 15k or so.. and can take most scooby's and evo's i see on the road. i learnt to loose the cap ... especially when you advertise yaself in a pic etc. theres a fine line between a boyracer and a car enthusiast.. learn to walk that line buddy and u'll be laughing. Now lets try and keep cars and bikes seperate yeah.. or the forum will go tits up!! welldone guys!! (Y) Tom. ps- kev ..when writing..try not to write things like larf and fool!!! because geezers think you try'n to b a badboy innit!!.. and u'll just open up a path for people to sterotype you.. pack it in nick!! lol

Thats f*ckin funny as!!!! i thought u were just calling it the T-POO.. But at second look u've actually sprayed that on it!!! people are trying to cuss the colour scheme etc.. thinkin your serious... cant you see.. he's done it for a laugh!! - for anyone who hasnt read post etc!! nice one..get pics up when its been built up..i wanna see the finnshed look!! Tom. (Y)

Ok dont laugh if im way way wrong!!! but outta curiousity... is there any problems with letting air out of the tire... as all the air..goes into the tire itself.. and thats where the liquid latex is etc.. and supposedly the rushin out of air causes the liquid latex to seal the hole.. ..so if you a rider who like to play about with you tire pressure alot...will it try and seal your valve... because i was thinking ... dont be silly the valve isnt near the tire really..whats it gonna do ...fire the latex up into the valve.. lol but then i was thinking if you got a lil latex in bottom of tire...and you hole is quite a way up in your side wall..then it must get rushed up by the air. hmmmmmm... hope that makes sense.. could some1 like fat mike or ali c...who know what they talking about enlighten me. because i really wanna convert to tubless..but i gotta get some knew rims 1st and koxxs dont work apparently. thanks. Tom. (Y)

self confidence is sooo true!! many of the great trials riders have a different way of thinking to you average rider. i find ... my riding is held back by the fear factor.. the.. "im gonna do this wrong and seriously hurt myself!" i blame it on once being put into hospital after a head injury in trials. but day by day im working on getting better? maybe i'll try working on my confidence etc. i find alot of good riders..dont have a fear factor... or very little of it. Example james porter!! lol lil ginger 15-16 yr old nutcase... does things i think...f*ck that.. u'll kill yaself!! the kids a legend! (Y) Tom.

Dont know if this helps anyone..but im picking my new chain up today from a local bike shop.. as i snapped a kmc chain a few days ago... i was gonna get a kmc kool... but then he showered me these new chains they have ordered in... its got flat links...so looks quite trick and also..because its styled for street riding..it can take grinds for bmxers...and bashes of walls and stuff.. you can get them in colours... like silver, red, blue etc. and they have a stronger breaking load then the kool and any other chain i seen. breaking load on a kool is something like 13 tonnes i think..where as the breaking load on this chain is 15 tonnes. thats quite abit more.. bad point the chain does cost 20 quid.. but meh!! if it works and gives u the confidence it wont snap..whats a tenner!! i dont know the chains name..but will post it up later today or something..once i have fitted it. (Y)

hmmmm.. i though somewhere on the post it said there was something i had to measure or something. thats the quote above if its worked correctly. unless i miss read it...and it was talking about the spacer thingy for the hub/cassette.. ooh i dont know.. i just fancy them magura covers!! Tom. (im such a muppet!!!.. the measuring refers to the spacers to space out the single speed cog etc..right?!) god im blonde!!!

Thanks Dave, im appreciate the diagram.. and im sure alot fo arty effort went into it buddy! but i dont see how a diagram of a hub etc cud provide me with the details i need to purchase carbon magura covers! . lol..thankyou though. Tom :blink:
