ok so the deal was, my 07 zoo python frame, (i showed him it on webcam all over before i sent it) he found a crack which i did not know about! (its a free frame anyways) echo lite forks 2007/8, usual condition scuffs down the leg top part of a zoo headset, mint condition front echo sl rim on echo cnc hub, basicaly unused, not a mark on it heatsink red pads in cnc vee backings echo external bb, mint condition echo team stem, mint condition, jus one bolt dethreaded so has a nut on the other side (showed him this on cam) profile back wheel, only jus put a new rim and spokes etc on it! i new it was cracked and offered to send another hubshel built onto a try-all rim. and he can also send it to profile and get a new shel an almost brand new try-all tyre monty front tire two standard inner tubes spare try-all rim all this was showed on webcam so he knew exactly what he was gettin to swap for brand new tr wheel set (a couple of rounded nipples on the back, no biggy) brand new fsa bb brand new trialtech forks with star nut (i have sloped topcap) brand new maxxis tyres thick maxxis downhill tubes tensile freewheel sounds like a good deal on his side if you ask me! he gets a free frame and a full out better spec, jus the forks arnt in as good condition, and and this is what i actually got in exchange, rear echo tr wheel, bearings are raped, rim is buckled and flat spotted far beyond rideable, ALL the nipples are completely rounded so i cant even attempt to sort it out, the washers on the bolts are scraped so harsh that they are now part of the bolts themselves, so when you tighten the wheel it mauls your drop outs. also not sure how it long it takes anodising to fade btu the stuffs faded so cant be that new haha got some crappy tube thats been repaired like 6 times. only 1 tube btw a nice new maxxis front tire yay! and another tyre what looks more like an innertube and its like 2.1 off some mountain bike maybe? hmm trialteck forks, rounded top cap, no star nut, the drop outs have been filed and raped i cant even use them yet some sort of echo/onza w.e stem, only one steerer bolt and the stem has been hammered, yea hammered! all over and wont go on the steerer. the one alright part!! an echo front tr wheel ! wooo shame it doesnt fit in the forks. hmmm im missing. brand new fsa bb, two maxxis downhill tubes, topcap and star nut, new maxxis tyre, tensile freewheel sweet, anyone want pics? oh and just to top it off, he asked me to post his first class recorded so that he can ride on the weekend, and hed do the same for me cool sounded fair to me. so, i sent mine 'guaranteed next day' which cost an extra £7 and got it recorded. he claimed to have sent his, but said they didnt give him a tracking number cause its a local company, and claimed it was next day. well he hadnt sent it, he ended up sending the stuff 48 hour!!! and not even recorded, so there was no trackin number or anything!. i also spent a good hour or two packing his stuff all good so that it wouldnt have a chance of gettin damaged. his stuff cam in a bin bag with sum parcel tape to hold it together with the stem and stuff ratling and bashing around in the middle. hmmmm how on this f'kin planet can u make a topic moaning about me?
-

everyone is just going to vote what ever they run, so this topic is kinda pointless. who wants to admit they wasted £25 when they could have got better pads for the money lol on the other hand i have a set of heatsinks and have had a few and am now running phats, and phats are much better, the end

Why Is Trials Riding So Big In The Uk (and Nowhere Else?)
Adrian replied to duckwars's topic in Beginners Trials Chat
population difference new zealand- 4,173,460 great britain - 60,943,912 theres bound to be more of anything over here. plus new zealand is kinda the corner of the earth haha so everything would take a lil longer reach there, especially a europe born sport -
that was shit hot man, that stuff was huge!!!
-
hahaha more like my life . i think the two types of trials vids are. the worst tgs vids that get shed loads of comments cause theyre so crap and the good vids with stuff that people actually make that get loads of comments cause theyre good
-
