Chris Akrigg - The Turning Point

For a long time, I've wanted a way of carrying my trials bike on my back so I can get to a ride on my getaround bike. Does anyone know who makes that "bag"?

Sweet video. I've definitely missed his input whilst he's been injured.

Post it on vimeo?

That's where to look, but it doesn't seem like it's there. It doesn't look like it's made for that, perhaps any old bag with straps on the back could handle the job with a bit of forethought?

It looks like that, but this one has no straps on the back. You can see at 1:40, seems like his doesn't either.

how was that rotating camerawork done at around 01:35-01:41?

+1 for this :S

Music went so well, the stop start nature of it. Are tarybikes going to start selling full sus bikes since Akrigg sure knows how to rip and ride trials on one....

Did akkers get injured or something last year ? must have missed it :giggle:

Sweet sweet video.

gopro (or normal camera for that shot) on a rotating arm from the top of his helmet. works really well when actually riding as you get the swing from side to side as you go through the corners.

Not sure there are any bags made especially for stuff like this, however I've known people to use the frame from a child carrier.

Just a case of strapping it to the frame then.

Edit: Asked someone who used to do this kind of thing, basically copied this idea apparently.
