  1. 1. 16-20 2. Think it was phones4u last time. It was cheap 3. Both 4. Contract 5. o2 6. Nokia 7. Yes (unless we just had cheap calls all the time, is there any extra cost incurred to Phone companies if we use the phone during the day or are they just doing this because they can?) 8. I don't know 9. Functions, Looks, Durability 10. Price of contract/what is offered. 11. I dunno, £70 maximum 12. Nope 13. I've not actually seen my contract bill in months, so I'll assume around £40 (price of contract is like £30 I think :P) There you go Dan (Y)
  2. I've got the video now, it has footage from 2000, with a very babblefish type translation of an interview with him throughout the video and the music (Outface) is terrible! It then goes to more modern (2004) footage on the older XTP, then you get him on the updated XTP, with him running his HS33 on the front, none of the super new footage however. It's very extensive, could be something good for people very new to the sport, but kinda boring to watch because of the interviewy bits and generally rubbish music, riding wise it's awesome (as expected), I wish Niouf could have made it instead! Still worth the download :P
  3. 3.6 kb a second - shumoooown . . . Now down to 2.6 kb a second and still around 12 hours left, this sucks . . . On 20% though which isn't so bad, it's still going to be downloading between me getting to sleep, and getting up and ready for college, this is crazy.

    James is kickin' ass and chewin' bubble gum! You beast :(
  5. Ooooooooooooooh :( I've been wanting to get on the next London ride as I've not been there in well over a year, but I'll be in Reading all weekend, damn you all!!
  6. I'd say make the move up to stock Mark, but I guess the money situation kinda puts that plan in the toilet! If you really wanna splah out, Monty Risers and Stem, the stems shorter, but quite a bit lower, so maybe pushing you a little bit more over the front making you feel perhaps a little less cramped, but you could reverse that and say that the shorter stem equals more cramped - sure wish I knew what I was going on about :) Also, the Python copy might have more reach, wheelbase may not be a huge difference but the geometry's quite a bit different, try and find someone with one and have a play, get to the next indoor competition if you can and see how it feels :(

    Warning!

    Should learn to type too, txt speak just makes him look even more sketchy, he seems very dodgy, never posting much in detail, gives the impression he's alot to hide.
  8. DivX is where it's at boyo :( Googlify it :)
  9. And Zoo's not really anything like the St. Blaise now, the Onza's the only one that comes close . . . .
  10. Yeah the commercial stuff really seems to suck, like Eminem, he's a really good rapper, but his lyrics and beats are rubbish, seems like a huge waste! I like Anticon stuff, it's a good group of rappers, some of the music's like spoken poetry, about stuff which is quite true or humorous, some of it is very spun out, but still pretty sweet :blink:
  11. Ignore him (Y) It'd be way better if it uploaded to Trials-Shack, then everyone can download it, I've tried lots of times to get it, cuts out after a minute or so (Y)
  12. Where would it be? And where is this place in relation to Cardiff? (Would just multi-map it but I dunno where it's being held, if it's Lake Ogwen again I apologise :">) Edit: Balls, that's out of the question then: Me living on the right hand side (Y)
  13. I quite like that actually, horizontal dropouts too eh? How much did it cost?
  14. Cool little video, you must do a lot of travelling to film all that footage, though it would appear it's from a quite a long time ago! Was it all your own footage or do you have other buddies filming across the country? Made a welcome change to hear some hip-hop too (Y)
  15. You'll never meet a cooler (meaning crazier) dog ever (Y)
  16. If you're bunny hopping I'd guess you'd need a bigger run up to get some speed, with pedalling you can go from a standstill, and it's generally alot more controlled.
  17. They're good, but how much did you pay for one? BikeMagic's saying that they're £249, I'm sure they're a good hub when you can get King's cheaper is there really much of a contest?
  18. Hmm, only managed to get 39 seconds of it, footage was sweet though (Y) Hoping someone'll be able to 'Shack it . . .
  19. Well, think that's certainly the most surprising bit of trials news we've heard this year :P Any links to the details of it?
  20. Mine's boring: Over three years ago I had a shagged up Raleigh HT2 XC bike, which was always breaking on me, so I saved up lots of money and bought myself a DDG Shooter, as it had a nice low seat tube and looked like a comfortable ride to get about on. All I could do when I got that bike was unweight the backwheel with my feet. Then I saw a neighbour of mine, who I didn't know at all (as I knew none of my neighbours) doing some little tricks in the road, so I tried to copy, falling on my ass after about 5 mins he came over to see if I was alright, then I met his older brother and we all started riding together, this led on to me making lots of friend around my local area, instead of me riding a mile or so to see my usual buddies. These two wheels really do help alot, in their own special way (Y)
  21. Couldn't agree more, I started doing this recently and it's really helped (Y) Also, it'll sound wierd but if you watch TRA or Hermance videos they'll kinda stand on the spot, keeping quite low and balancing, or in sence, trackstanding, but keeping both wheels facing forward by bouncing the front end about, this is quite handy, as it allows you to push straight off into the move, and I also find that keeping that little bit lower helps too. Sorry if that's hard to understand (Y)
  22. I did that ages ago, but it didn't work as I used the wrong bank account, then that bank charged me £35 (Y) Reminded me to do it again now that I'll use the right account (Y)

    Ditto that, though I only cleaned mine this afternoon, hoovered it for the 3rd time in 15 months too :D
  24. Umm, if my memory serves me well you might wanna clean that rear rim with something like Fairy liquid now, as the White Spirit whilst taking the tar off adds a very thin layer of oil (or something) which screws the brake up. Methylated (sp) spirits are the best way I think :D
