freetrial Posted January 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 Where can I get the same muddy mary tire that you have? Google knows: Schwalbe UK There`s no list of retailers, but I`m sure they`ll help you out if you give them a call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freetrial Posted January 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 *Insert shit, generic trials joke about riding your wife here*. Bike looks really nice man, it even looks light. Thanks! Will be lighter ( the bike). Got a HOle rear rim on the way and hopefully my reset BB shows up today. 9,08kg as it is now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freetrial Posted January 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 You're a brave man! Just might wait until the trialtech one`s show up at the shop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freetrial Posted January 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 And we`re down to 8,97kg! First goal reached. Today I fitted the Reset Ti BB and a Trialtech Lite chain. Think I`ll leave it like this for a while. Need a Mono Trial caliper No.3 before I change the forks. Hopefully somebody will make a fork that has the geo of a try-all fork and the weight of a Echo SL. Preferably with a +20 or +30 disc tab. Yeah, I know it`s just 5mm rake difference, but the try-all fork just feels nicer. Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben John-Hynes Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 Why? 'cause they grind like shit and he'll break a spine or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 Which is also why Kenny Belaey uses them...?? to be fair.. dont you tihnk he gets them when ever he wants when ever he snaps them, buckles them beyond repair ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freetrial Posted January 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 ?? to be fair.. dont you tihnk he gets them when ever he wants when ever he snaps them, buckles them beyond repair ? Being a Monty team rider, I`m not so sure he gets try-all stuff for free... Your guess is as good as mine. Although I see your point. Anyway, I do not have a habit destroying wheels. So I`m guessing they`ll hold up for quite a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ogre Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 doesn't matter if they hold a grind well, some pads work superbly on a dead grind, so achieving the "dead" finish on the sidewall might be a plus... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben John-Hynes Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 Which is also why Kenny Belaey uses them... Ok then, they're hard to grind... For the average person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freetrial Posted January 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 (edited) Ok.. Waiting has never been my strong side. So the Hole rim is on the bike now. Grinding was no problem. How it wears we`ll just have to see. Anyhow, the bike is now down to 8,89Kg. with (in my opinion) very rideable parts. Acheing to give it a proper ride... Here`s a few pics: Might have to give the rear rim a Tip-Ex treatment though... Edited January 15, 2010 by freetrial Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freetrial Posted January 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 Down to 8.65Kg now. Echo SL fork and a Hayes 160mm disc. Need to get a new Hope Mono Trial with a No.3 caliper and a 180mm disc for it. So I guess the final version will be ca. 8,7Kg in the end. Toodelidoo!
