Ben John-Hynes Posted January 7, 2009 Report Share Posted January 7, 2009 Looks nice that! my one should be here tommorrow did u ride a lower bb bike before that as i just wondering what it felt like moving from low to high bb?I went from an 07 pure, +15 to an 06 pitbull, +55 and loved the difference. I find high bb much easier and ride so much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ibs_m Posted January 11, 2009 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 Good to hear your getting back into it! I met you aaages ago at huddersfield station on the platform and was well chuffed I had met one of the trialskings! I just got back into it recently and bought a simtra - finding it solid to ride - gonna switch to a 24 rather than figure out how to ride these long high bb bikes.Ibs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave_Finney Posted January 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 yea there strange to ride i have to admit! try a bunny hop run up on mine and its faceplant.com! huge advantages for things like front wheel hooks etc though.still seems thats all 90% of riders are doing nowdays though.. sidehops and hooks, really uci vibe to trials i think now. Wheres akkers and eddie gone!!!!? love a little streety style thrown in now and then!Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everytime i see him we say were gonna have to get out and have a blast together but we havnt for a while now.
