From the album: My Bike
My ZOO! Pitbull 05, Echo Pure forks, Toxsin bar and stem V!Z rear rim on Hope bulb with V!Z green rim tape, Middleburns, DMR Simple Tension Seeker, not sure what chain, just an old one, FSA Pig headset Maggies front and rear Hot-S rear tyre ZOO! pads Echo booster and Club Roost grips :P and an Onza front hub on a custom drilled Onza rim -
Hope pro 2 Trials, and DX32 rim, nice strong rims and a beauty of a hub. Although i do run a bulb and its now six years old and has only started to skip! although i've only ridden it for about half a year, but any day i would choose the Hope pro 2 Trials just over what i've heard about it. Hope this helps Rob

Hi, I'm going to be 16 at the end of this month and i would really like to get a part time job, as i am still at school although i am still not sure what to do yet, so i was wondering if anyone is 16 and working part time would you mind putting what you work as, if you like it and a rough amount of you get paid? Many thanks in advance Rob

Hey, Shame about your brake i hate it when you get put out of riding because some crappy thing broke Cant you get the guarantee off Magura, sell them on and get a set of '04's? I've found '04's levers to be great never let me down, no problems and easy to maintain Rob

Medway is the place to go We got plenty of natural and plenty more of street Let us know if anyone is coming down this way and ill be more than happy to come out and drag the locals along with me Rob

Anyone else? let me know and if you want add me on MSN (robwalker@happyhardcore.dj) and we can sort something out? Cheers Rob

Atreyu - You give love a bad name :reckon: It rules!(what else do you expect from Atreyu) must listen to it! Guarantee you'll like it, and yes it is a remix of that BonJovi's? song. Rob ooo and this its such a great song (sorry 56k users )

Are you sure its steel? that would be sooo heavy! Double check, maybe its steel alloy? Rob

Sorry to keep it plain and boring but i'm going to have to say the t-rex, although i haven't ridden neither frames, i have heard that the t-rex is a lot like the Pitbull, if so then defiantly go for it, my riding improved rapidly when i got my Pitbull and unless it was some sort of magic powers i'm guessing its up to the geometry of the frame, go for the t-rex you won't be let down! Rob

I've found single speed to be a lot more reliable, you can get a nice tensionor and then it stops that awful banging of the deralier against the frame, and stops the chain from hitting the frame. And there is the obvious part with weight, it might not seem a lot but when you add up all the deralier, extra cogs shifters on your bars it all add's up! And you have to run an extra cable down your frame, go for single speed Its never let me down. Rob PS t-pro kid, not really helpful, this may help

Sorry for the 3rd idea (they just keep popping into my head! ), but my mate got his bike stolen was quiet a while back now but the theif's took the bike in for a service! I know its a long shot but just ring around the bike shops and ask them to keep an eye out, may seem like a bit of a pain to do but its worth it and who knows it might even pay off! Good luck once again mate Rob P.s here's the story about my mate Ihatechavs -

Oh yes and i forgot - e-bay, i know it sounds stupid but there was a topic on here a while ago about someone who had their bike stolen and whoever stole it (i think it was the next door neigbour or something) put it on e-bay! Ill keep an eye out as i'm on their quiet a bit filling up my room with random c**p an what so ever, but just keep watching out for it and if/when you do find it ring the police and put a post in here telling no one to bid. Hope this helps and good luck hope you get your bike back! Rob -

Sorry to hear about your loss man i would be heart broken I know its obvious but just ring the police which you've probaly already done, and if they give you one of them crime reference numbers keep ringing back every day as they cant exactly stop doing their investigations even if you do annoy them to hell Also ring up the local paper and see if they would be able to mention it somewhere, and i no it seems a bit silly, but it does work, trying asking some of the 'chavvier' people around your school/town and just casually mention if they know of anyone selling a trials bike, they'll be too stupid to realize what their saying and it might just pop out Good luck anyway mate hope you get it back, i mite be coming down your way in the summer would be nice to have a ride -
Tvi's rubish u can hardly browse all the videos easy and its clogged up with all sorts of other crap, trials-shack is the best and there's no doubting it, purely because of the fact its trials based and so easy to search and find videos. Seriosly its not worth gettin into an argument over because u know whos goin to win , and who said about HAVING to pay for trials shack, it was just an idea for some donations to keep the site up and running for good this time, stop being so negative. Atleast people are actully trying to do something than just bitching about everything. Rob

Yer im deffinetly up for giving some money, maybe i could sort out some sort of fund rasing thing if the money is needed, trials shack is so important and we need it for good this time, ideas for fund raising anyone? i was thinking a mass ride where riders give a little money to go towards it, i dont know just an idea. Suggestions please! im sure im talkin on behalf of everyone when i say it would be nice to keep trials shack for good! Rob
-
Wahoo about time for the legend that is trials-shack to return, dont believe me? Trials-Shack . Its great i cant wait to get uploading again i miss all the videos from the old server, How do you all feel about it? Comments? hope your as excited as i am. Rob

I have an 05 ZOO! Pitbull and running a Hope Bulb on the rear, i was wondering if it would be a good idea to run a bolt axel instead of quick release? is there any advantages disadvantages or has anyone made the conversion before? is it worth it? All replies much apreachated. Cheerz Rob

Yh probaly just best gettin in contact with some bike dealers and see if they can send you any? They've probaly got hundreds and want to get rid of sum Rob

hope every one enjoyed! im now feeling sick lol. Hows everyone else feeling? Rob

Lol i think old peolpe are quiet funny, especialy when they run over, (whilst my mate was in the shop) steals the bike and tried to ride it away, trying to sit down (yes nearly fell off) then he took it into a pub! Apparently when my mate went in to get it back the bloke hid behind a chair! mad people, but what does annoy me is 'Excuse me why dont you have a seat on your bike?', I swear down im just goin to flip one day from so many people asking me that! the adults are more annoying that the little kids!

Hmm gd idea a name! never thought of naming my bike, although now i am. Possibly Becky or maybe?Peter - peter the pitbull . Not sure yet ill have a think... Rob
