Me And My Dad Were Having A Debate.
Dan6061 replied to Josh Greenan!!!!!!!!!!'s topic in Trials Chat
I'd say 20". Because the tyres are super fat, so they wrap around the rail. Saying that, it could depend on the pressure, if you have say.. 60psi, you'd just bouce off the rail. If you ran like 15psi, the tyre would wrap around it. -
Does this mean it'll no longer be Invision? I'm confused... If so, it still has Invision at the bottom If not, I'll be shush

Bikerider - In reply to your last post, I agree with you on some things, but in a different way... Headtube area - I'm not to keen on this too. Looks like it could crack at the bottom, next to the headtube. But I have no idea really, just a guess. If you made the CNC'd bits a bit bigger on the headtube, it'll look (and could be) stronger. Those bits at the headtube just look too thin to me. Internal headubes aren't bad, The Cane Creak headset cups just cracked. I think. I think people just had problems with the headsets, not the headtube. But I prefer External all the same Dropouts - I have a Zona, and not being bias or anything, But I like the dropouts. They may look huge in pics, but when you actually see one, they're about the same length as T-Pro ones. Which don't look stupidly long...to me Actually..the dropouts on this Proto' look tiny compared to Zona ones... 'The mess in the centre' - I agree with you on this...kinda. But I'll put it my way. From looking at the pictures, In my opinion, the 'second bb' looks rubbish. But looks like it's there for a reason. It looks like it stops the frame from flexing from the brake. Like on the Zonas, Zoo's etc, you have the bits going from chainstay to chainstay, at the top, near the backwheel. Looks like it's for that, it just looks rubbish. The gussets don't look to nice either. I think you should scrap the idea of CNC'd bits there, and just whack a 'normal' tube there going vertically, it'll look much nicer to me. 'Onza copying everyone' - I disagree. Yes, the T-pro's are basically levelbosses, and Zonas are close to Zoo's. But in reality, they're not. If you look into it, like geometry etc, they're completely different. I can't think of what the: T-Bird, T-Vee, T-Mag could be. The T-Lite looks like a Monty. But isn't. If you look at Onza's older frames (2000) then they're original. Especially the T-Mags and T-Pros. With the square tubing etc. With something like a 900mm wheelbase So yeah, Some of Onzas frames are similar to other companies in looks, but really, they're not. Oh yeah, And I'm pretty sure no-one here will stop buying from Onza altogether, just becuase this may be a bad desgin. I don't agree with you on 'it's not doing the Onza name any good at all' And I'm sure that most people here will aswell?

Why Do You Always Do Things On The Wrong Side ?

We live to be different. -
Click Lemme finish downloading it [X]Watch it [X] Upload it to tv.isgThen put it in the entries thread EDIT: Fatmike- haha, yeah I thought it was Nick's entry too. Is he entering do you know? also, are you? EDIT 2: Wow you're springy on that bike. I liked it

I've used water in my Magura's since I got them. Purely becuase I couldn't afford the Magura Oil at the time. I've had no problems. And this is in about 2yrs? Only froze twice, and this was a few weeks ago, when it was bloooddddy cold! Once when I was riding, went over the bars The second was it just being sat in my garage, both times, just put it in't living room next to radiator for 5mins. Job done Many people use water in their Maguras, and don't have problems, like myself. It is a pain for bike shops though, as they have to bleed with the right stuff. But...if you can bleed it yourself.....

Ritchley WCS I use these, and they're forking nice! I've had a go on a bike with Try-All ones, and they feel wayy to thin. But the Ritchleys are perfect, not stupidly wide, not stupidly thin.
-
I had this one, was alright to ride. This is how it was before I cracked it, but with a front Magura, I then upgraded to a Zona with different parts.... Didn't you have a Python frame ready to be built?
-
Oh yeah, I eait with fork in right hand, knife in left. Feels better But I change round at restaurants :$

BUMP Finally done my video. I quite like it, excuse the quality, all taken on my shitty '8mb' camera my step-dad got on holiday. Curb Video Mk II
-
My Crawlers are fairly worn now, especially the rear, but still holds surprisingly well. On my 2nd pair Might try the Monty 2.7 next, I hear they're good, if not, another Crawler
-
Only at christmas. Tray in the living room watching TV, or I sit at the table whilst on the PC
-
Make it wider
-
I was thinking this too. That could be nasty I'm not too fond of it, the CNCing around the 'seat tube' area looks shit to be honest, looks too thin. And what's with the other BB kinda thing? (I know it's not another BB shell, but don't know what to call it) Could be a handy storage area...

The Best Cranks You Hav Ever Had.....
Dan6061 replied to joe parker's topic in Beginners Trials Chat
My '05 Echo's. They're the best because: I had T-Bird cranks to start - rounded the taper FSA PowerPros - as above Monty 219 - Had the fixed 24t chainring, I was still running T-Bird gearing Then I got my Echo ones, as I couldn't run the gearing I had on my Zona, because of the CNCing on the frame (chain rubbed a lot on it) So I went front freewheel, didn't have much to spend, so Echo's it was. Does the job -
No-one reads the rules...

What's the song Dave? Pretty nice video, I quite like your style, even though it's on a kerb Spinnyyy
-
I though I did add Wallys - Will do now Where is Davetrials' one? Or am I blind... Todges - I can remember that..I thin.. Lemme sort it
-
Cough I'll put it in there once it decides to play And I'll edit this with comments EDIT: That was pretty cool. Maybe some different angles would be better? But that's my opinion... There's still time to change it I'll put it in the entries topic now...
-
Everyone has a differnt opinion. If you find it impressive, it's impressive. I don't care if people think I'm shit or not. All I care about, is that I'm trying, and learning
-
Yeeee Slowly upgraded it, HS33's front and rear, Monty 219 Cranks (ones with the 24t chainring) T-Pro rear wheel...
-
Maybe Trials-Forum's growing more than Trials is? When I started riding (2003), There was about 4-5 of us in my village, which was awesome. But now there's only me, and Rich left. One of them moved house, the other two changed to bmx, then one of those went into cars But yeah, Trials is growing.Slowly. I can't see myself stopping anytime soon. I enjoy riding to much.
-
Haha, nah, I don't feel offended at all Quite proud that I got the right angle, without knowing Also, The rear disc brake has no cable, and is running on an HS33 Lever with half the amount of hose needed. Impressive
