  1. Pads: Plaz CRM Time used: over 2 months Rim used: echo cnc Brake: maggy '04 Grind: Yes, sharp as fook, about 5 times, maybe 6 can't renember. Tar: Only cos' I f**king had to. Wear rate: n/a Opinion of a working brake: Good bite, great hold Review: Utterly dissapointed with this for the first two grinds and about 3 weeks but then f**k me they got really good, still not great great hold but meh it's enough. Update: After 2 months and a bit they're still good, and No signs of wear (Y) , I compared them to my new set they look exactly the same but with a bit of dirt. Very good wear rate.
  2. Impacted.

    Storms

    And us losing... (Y)
  3. I say do dirt jumping, it's better :P (and more dangerous right? ;) ) I still think it's stupid asking people who ride trials bike on a trials bike forum if you should quit trials or not, who cares what we think anyway?
  4. I was recently at the coupe de france trials doo, and just about everyone was running koxx rims which are also single wall, and I remember seeing people zip-tie their valve to the spokes on either side of the valve equally tight therefore keeping the valve straight and upright at all times. Haha, I remember thinking "Wtf?" when I saw that because I have double walled rims (Y) .
  5. Yeah, tendonitis sucks, I had to quit badminton because of a bad case of tennis elbow. You could try an anti-inflammatory creme to get better faster, it kinda worked with me... well it hurt less anyway.
  6. Either will work, they're just as strong as each other. What's the problem?
  7. Hey, you're the guys with montys. Got your other video, you guys are beastly!
  8. Wow. The best video i've seen since....whatever, you're just so good, look like youve been riding all day every day for 15 years. Damn good video, one of the best, EVER. P.S: Who edited that bad boy?
  9. Hope mono trial, but that's only cos I got one :closedeyes:. But in my experience most disks will piss on V's (yeah, i've had well set up decent V's). Hope trial if you're rich. Any other decent hydro like maguras louise, marta and avid juicy seven if you think hope over prices everything. Or get an avid BB5 ou BB7 or whatever they call them if you're skint / can't be arsed with hydraulics and crap. edit: I spell like a cat walking on a keyboard.
  10. Seen it before too. Looks like he put the back brake on too early.
  11. Haha! When the guy opens the umbrella, it's like an explosion, they all fall over! lol.
  12. That's nice but we don't care. In france we take the equivalent to GCSE's a year before you guys and we're marked with a score out of 320, I got 275 or so (can't remember haha) so yeah, it was okay I guess. P.S: f**k maths.
  13. Nah lol I doubt that it's a strength problem, you just need to give yourself a little pedal kick forward to get you into the right position and then just hop to keep balance, it will look uber sketchy at first but as you get the hang of it you will be able to hop in a tiny circle for ages. Do you ride alone? because that would slow the process down, but even so, I had to learn alone and if I can do it you sure can! Just keep trying.
  14. My god andyroo your job must be computer-drawing-man-atician! Cool place (Y) How long d'that take you?
  15. I used zip ties to fix the outer cage of my VP pedals back on.
  16. Please don't take this away from us :huh: .
  17. Resident Evil, half an hour ago.
  18. Wow, Ace vid loved it all! Hah loved the end with the old crone, did shit hit your camera? If she did....bitch. It's great to have vids with good quality specially if it's long (Y) Top stuff people!
