  1. I think i'l have buy a pair of Coust-sinks after seeing how well yours work. With all your weight they must be pretty decent
  2. Dont like it that much The front rim is too dark a green to be honest and i dont like any colour apart from black/silver cranks. Looks good to ride though
  3. Yeah i want to know if the ben slinger frame is coming out, looks pretty decent
  4. Yeah why are we talking about wanking funny as hell though
  5. Ah memories with you and those shorts, especially the guy that was saying our bikes were stupid in town Awesome video, second part was better than the first. Did you make the water gap in london?
  6. i have tried both blue,green,brown Both green and blue are amazing at hold,bite and dont wear down alot. My brother has run koxx bloxx blues for 2-3 months and i cant notice if it has worn down Although i am planning on trying the reds as i hear good things about them
  7. Where can i buy the iolo pads and how much are they? very interested
  8. haha, would never of thought that having muscles would make you sweat more. so it would be better if you dont go to the gym and work out on your muscles... although i have abnormally large muscles and i do jack s*** ah well, i'l just rely on lynx for the moment
  9. Looks awesome, where do you get the blue hosing from?
  10. what the hell have they done now Wonder what the geometry on that is
  11. Yeah it's Feeder - piece by piece
  12. I was extremely dissapointed with my heatsink blue pads, after a few hours of riding the pads wore down and this tar like stuff was coming out of it in flakes and was sticking to the rim, the more i used the more came out of the pad Dont think i will buy the blues ever again
  13. Alot of people prefer using V-brakes to maguras as they say it is less spongey when you have a sharp grind on your rim, coust pads and them well set up Felix Mucke, smoothest rider i have ever seen, uses v-brakes and they probably hold better than my magura's do
  14. Downloading now, will edit once done loved all your older videos, better have some ganster beats in it Edit : Haha, awesome video, mike you absolute legend, 1 footed wheelie on the seat by boon aswell well worth the watch
  15. Not trying to annoy you or anything but why dont you just get the python instead of the zip, lighter, just as strong and feels extremely nice as 1 of my mates has 1. Also why are your parents buying it.. get a job (directed at trialslord by the way)
  16. Yes the zona zip is alot longer than the t-bird, Alot of people say that the zona zip feels heavy but once your on it you like the feel of it. In my opinion i would say (if you had the money) go for the zoo python 2006. It's the exact same as the zona except longer and personally looks much better aswell. Hope i helped Ewan
  17. Well i take it that you would like to stick with 26" then. Quite a bit has changed since back in the old days I would say just to upgrade your bike that you have now by buying maguas, new frame, forks, cranks and maybe rims depending on what you have already.A good frame to get would be the Echo Pure if you are short for money. My brother has got it and it is very light, strong and looks awesome. At a cheap price aswell. In my experience i have found that echo have been very reliable frames so you cant go wrong with one. If you dont have the money for that i would suggest getting a magura for your back brake, grind your rim and get some pads like Coust-sinks or Koxx bloxx browns Hope i helped Ewan
  18. Heres a picture of duncan shaws xtp when it snapped from another angle
  19. 20" or 26" I had a ride of my mates 20" leveboss, was extremely good, light, strong. Found it quite easy on the backwheel aswell
  20. In my opinion i dont really like neil tunnicliffe's style of riding, sure he can sidehop massive and some of the biggest static hops i have ever seen. Dont forget his hooks but i just find his riding all power and not smooth at all. Same with craig lee scott, but that is just my opinion. I like Ben Travis and Damon Watsons style of riding, they go huge while looking extremely relaxed and smooth riders. They have also encouraged me to try out new sidehopping techniques which has helped me more . Rick Travis is also quite inspirational as he was the person that got me into trial biking. He always try's to push me harder and is a good laugh to ride with, LEGEND. Ewan
  21. Well seeing as you ride a mod that will make it harder but when i was watching my mate trying to learn at the start he just tried to hit the wall as hard and fast as he can then try and pull it up, which didnt work. What he does is he pedals up to the wall (going quite fast) lifts up his front wheel then hops onto the wall with his front wheel ontop at a slight angle. Depending on what foot you are, if you are left footed you should be hitting the wall at a slight angle to the right so your pedal doesnt hit the wall. then stretch your arms out as far as you can possibly go then hope to hell you make it Im sure someone who can do them will explain for you. Will take a few weeks of practice to get the hang of though. Ewan Edit: Try getting about 7-8 pallets stacked up then get an extra 1 then put it leaning against them at a slight angle if there are no decent walls, quite a good thing to practice on if you have alot of pallets
  22. I know you arent suppose to bleed them with water and that but i have known people that have run water in their brakes for years and nothing bad has happened. You have just got to bleed is correctly
  23. Having getting a mod at christmas time, i enjoyed it at first to learn on but once i had learnt all the basics i now find 26" far more fun. Easier to control on the back wheel in my opinion You should just see if somebody posts a good forsale 26" bike then just add them to msn then try and buy one. Or just buy an onza t-rex off tartybikes. They look pretty good and i hear they are quite good for money Ewan
