kevtim Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 Hay peopleIm returning to trials after two years out of the loop due to a nasty injury. I just purchased a phase 1.2 (frame and forks) and have pretty much lumped together spare parts i have knocking around in my garage. Went out on it today and all things considering it rides pretty good. I have decided to upgrade bits and bobs her and there starting with wheels (hubs, rims, tires). Any recommendations guys/ girls? I used to ride D521's with deore hubs and tioga tires. I want something thats stronger and lighter? I could also do with a new chain if any one can help me out there? Just go shimano? Heres a link to some of my riding, before i came a cropper! Enjoy folks: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U_CHO4V1d-gi miss my zebdi!Cheers Kev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
