Is what youx mean pulling the front wheel on top of an object then leaning forward and palnting the back wheel on to the object? A front touch is tapping your wheel just at the bottom of naobject so it boosts you up high enough to get on ot an object.....i think

Remember you're answering the question, not listing everything about the scene. "How does shakespeare make act 3 scene 7 seem nasty and unpleasant'' It's all to do with the words and phrases he uses. Best thing to do is to the intro, as said before then PEE (point, Example and Explain). I.e. SHakespeare makes the scene seem evil and unholy. (Then quote) "**Something to do with the devil etc**" Then explain, analysing the key words. Just do that for everything

What Size Frame To Get 20" Or 26"
ManxTrialSpaz replied to craig250889's topic in Beginners Trials Chat
Height doesn't really matter, I'm nearly 6' and I'm on a 20". It mainly depends on what you want, not what everyone else is telling you. The best advice is to ride someone elses 20" and a 26" trials bike and decide what you want to go for. If you can only get your hands on a 20" or only a 26", it's porbably best to go for that bike unless you hate it. Reason for that is you can share tips and generally talk about trials as you're both on the same bike. Another thing to consider is how far away is the nearest ride spot or the best spot, if it's really far away, get a 26" as it has gears so you don't have to pedal to your location in your trials gear which takes forever, unless it's all down hill . Don't soley base your bike on this choice as it's not really an issue unless you have to ride for miles before you get to where you're going. In the end, it doesn't really matter what size you go for too much, as the end result is trials and is the same, watch a mod movie and a stock one and they'll be doing the same kinda moves, it's just the technique which is microscopically different. The biggest choice you're going to have to make is your frame choice, as it is the frame whether it's 20" or 26", it's the frame which changes the ride. I@t's early in the moriing, I've just woken up, so you can't have a go at me if I'm talking bollox -
Tighten up the clamps on the bars, the chances are they're a bit loose and that's what's casuing the creak (the bars moving)

Yeah, That was a Downhill forum, they are kinda always moving and always in need of break feathering. Trials doesn't use the front brake quite that much so I don't think the water boiling will be much of a problem.

It opens in Real Player--You might be able to use WMP though Watched it now--It's a good vid, I like the presentation of it. He uses a funny rolling technique, a full crank rotation before kicking...

If your current T-Bird frame is the 04/05 version...it's more or less the same as the 03 T-Pro

Hmm, my worst Mechanical Monkey Mistake was on friday. Kris ground my rear rim (CRMs + Medium grind = orgasm -ish) and when we were putting the chain onto the freewheel it got stuck in the bashplate, it was solid as well. The wheel was as far forwards as possible but the chain was stuck and was as rigid as Hitler. Hmmm. Only one solution. I kicked the on the pedal. The chain went on and rode nicely. Brake was yummy. Half an hour later the freewheel starts making grinding noises and partially locking whilst rolling. On closer inspection, as well as f*cking up the freewheel (big style), I have also stripped the threads on my bb. So on Tuesday, Bikestyle are getting a ring and I'm going to see whether Onza will only replace my T-Pro or if I can get my hands on some money instead. (Which I probably won't ) Ah well, it'll be worth a try, it would go towards an Aorta

I'm So Freakin' Sick Of Pinchflats!
ManxTrialSpaz replied to Scotty H's topic in Beginners Trials Chat
just try running a lower psi and carry on. Yes, it does get annoying but you'll have to get over it. I was having to replace inner tubes every 3 days which got very annoying. Whatever you're doing, just carry on with a lower psi and eventually you'll find you burst less and less inner tubes. Last one I needed was a month ago and it was about 5 months before that. Just keep going on with it. -
It would be harder for him to use 'txt tlk' than it would for Shakespeare to use it as he's German and would have to sit down and think about how to abbreviate ANyway, how big is 8 pallets in inches? I just couldn't imagine anyone doing it straight, let alone sideways

Harsh grind. That's all the alarm you need Just put your bike in the back of your shed and bolt it to the wall using one of those bike chains and put a blanket over it. If you want more, drill a hole in our shed door, loop another bike chain through the hole and bolt the chain to the inside of your shed so the padlock can't be snapped. Just make sure the hole in the shed is just big enough so you can open and close the padlock.

My Bike Is Finally Finished! What Do You Think
ManxTrialSpaz replied to Apocalypse_reaper666's topic in Beginners Trials Chat
I'm not a fan of stocks, but for you i'll make an exception. This is a bike for those in the "is trials taking over your life thread" Just don't leave them on their own with your bike--you might find some stains on it. -
How Much Is My T-bird Worth?
ManxTrialSpaz replied to trial-biker-ryan's topic in Beginners Trials Chat
The new bottom bracket and freewhell can't push it up that much. If they are decent, those components will be worth more than a stock T-Bird at 9 months. What kind of freewheel is it? Did the one you get go dodgey and your local bike shop replace it? If they did it's probably crap unless you payed good money for it. -

ManxTrialSpaz replied to Scotty H's topic in Beginners Trials Chat
So.....you were going to buy a frame based on........colour........ Probably best to buy a nice frame and then decide what colour you want.
