And Now For Something Completely Different...

Very nice bike man. Went onto the tarty website earlier, saw the Sky's proper cheap, made me want to buy one. If the orange sky was £1000 i would have probably bought it lol, even considered buying the white sky mod for a bit of fun its that cheap :giggle:. However £1000 is still a fair bit for an 18 year old so had to resist :(

can; that top cap be made of key ring trial tech bash?

LOL think of the weight you could save using a half-ring :giggle:

That bike looks the TIT's Mr Mark. Get a video out soon pretty please I'd love too see the change in bike/riding style and how it has changed in this short time.

That front end looks High!

Uploading now ;) It was Mark's first ride on this bike though... and same for Stan on his Echo I think. And it was cold and slippery... Excuses at the ready :lol:

Stan can verify that I was a trillion times better the next time we rode, haha. Super cold, damp and having to stop to film = not ideal. I might get a semi-proper video out on this bike but probably not. The sort of things I like doing on this bike don't really translate to film very well (tech natural stuff only really looks good if it's big tech natural), and I don't really feel I have my own style doing it at all.

You always seem to have the nicest bikes. :P

Now you need to try it in some comps!!! :lol:

How are you finding that rear tyre and what pressure are you running?

Also I'm liking how you've routed your brake. How do you go about bleeding that without a bleed nipple?

Thanks

Jed

I don't really like paying to ride, I don't really like standing around waiting for other people to get out the way so I can ride, I don't really like having to get up mega early to ride, and when comps are on it's usually a cert that most of my favourite places to ride natural are going to be dead quiet. So yeah, don't see myself entering comps any time soon ;)

Bleeding the brake seems pretty straight forward - I didn't do it myself but... er... 'supervised' Adam doing it, and it seemed pretty easy. Hopefully he'll cast an eye over this thread (or I'll tell him to) and he can explain.
