TRUE i could have got it a fair bit lighter too... but i was very impressed with the overall ride/weight/feel of the bike. Everything was strong as too which is always important wif bmx sold it for $2500!!! or bout 850pounds!! Miss it soo much
-
^^^^HERE HERE!!^^^^ sooo fkn true. really really pisses me off!! To the point everyone round ere knows i wont ride unless my brakes are silent - which they are I hate riding with noisy brakes or people with noisy brakes. It seems though from reading posts on this site people equate loud brakes with working brakes.... Not always true i gotta say. Silent brakes means no vibration which if u think about it means nothings moving to create the noise therefore more solid brake... (im sure this will create a whole nother topic of people tellin me im wrong and stuuupid etc..)

Aitken s3 frame (raw) WTP helium forks proper magti hubs on proper rims proper bars animal stem with ti bolts ti spindle hamilton pedals fly brake animal tyre/khe/rubens (was constantly changing lol) ... Was featured in 20/20 an australian bmx mag I miss bmx but my compressed vertebrae thanks me to not buy another .... found pics -

haha we agreee!! "matter of perspective.." exactly wat i was saying... old school depends on who you are and how long youve been around. ok so were both old and pretty much from same era, thierry klinkenberg stayed with me in 96, met hans rey that year and turned my steel mongoose into a trial bike ... scary times
-
^^SPEAK THE TRUTH^^ creativity is key

boon: im in oz mate so not aware of your comp scene over there but yeah agree bout the rest of it. F-Stop: i stil remember wen i met the guy who was THINKING about starting to make plaz pads... hes now a very busy man! YES i meant saracens... im at my gfs and so couldnt rember the pics iv got on my wall. Oh yeah iv got a hansrey signature from 1996 My point was meant to be that the sport has come along way as in we now have trials specific companies, bikes, parts etc. In australia I went to a nationals in 98 and there were aboutr 12 trials riders we now get anywhere around 50plus competitors which is pretty impressiv considering how far apart we all live. Oh yeah chris's style might not get "noticed" at comps... but last time i checked he was how many times UK champ and wenever he rides its always remembered. Theres some of him ridin Australia in Trial Noir, that i filmed... to this day i have people asking me to show them that UP he does and stil no1 has the balls or whatever to attempt it. Theres my rant... im gettin too old for this shit!

^^^indeed!^^^ Im in my 11th year of riding trials and just this year decided to leave the seat off and stretch out with a long low bike and i gotta say its stil good to ride but yeah i think shorter old school bikes are more general fun to ride. This is one spot where 24" bikes are sorta filling the gap in the market i think. To me, imo, old school is - Libor Karas, thierry klinkenberg, straight top tube crescents, plastic mini seats, xc bikes with cromo rigids on, fluoro yellow maggies and tomacs, Jeff Lenosky, Pashleys, Koza, Monty, the white dbr trials frame we all wanted, DCDs, JJ rockin a Jamis painted crescent/megamo/monty lol, the marts on raleighs, vanguard magura pads, Cesar Canas being the king of mods, Hans Rey and Otpi, Monkey see monkey do and Keigou Arizonou (sp?) doing the maddest balance lines ever!! thing to remember is old school will forever be open to ppls opinions, to someone 15yo the megamo DD frames are probly considered oldschool and im sure people older then me will think that what i call oldschool is probly middle school or watever lol point is the sports progressing, remember where it came from, how it all started and keeep this in mind next time ur whinging about your hydrolic disc brakes slipping... some people used to ride trias with centrepull cable brakes with std pads...

both look lush... Zhi maybe bit more WHAT IS THAT WHITE MAGGY HOSE?????? me want!!!! danny
