Wots Goin On


ezza

Recommended Posts

Echo have released a new Team; think XTP.

Benito Ros has pushed a lot of boundaries; see KoxxDays thread.

Chris Akrigg is now on Mongoose, and Martin Hawyes is now on DiamondBack.

Onza are now doing the T-Rex is the "Ultimate Woodstock" spec too.

Try-All coloured rims are on everyone's bikes (up until they fold (Y)).

V!Z are sponsoring everyone who mentions Viz on the forum (except me. Exception that proves the rule (Y)).

TRA broke his hand; Neil Tunnicliffe broke his ankle.

The BikeShow is this weekend, rider list is on the forum.

SelectBikes.com is now up and running and selling pretty cheap stuff (Echo, ZOO!, BT).

TartyBikes.co.uk is up and running and selling pretty cheap stuff too (Echo, ZOO!, Onza, loads of other stuff - see Adam or Dave's signatures).

Erm, think that's most of it.

Mark.

P.S. Ashton pulled a backflip on an ET24 at a demo, and TrialMediaOne was launched (see thread in Sites, Vids and Pics).

P.P.S. Signature frames for Yao Chzi (or summat), CLS and Tunni. George Seamons is a mod. Everyone's sorta updated their frames a bit. Onza released pics of 5 pretty mental mod prototypes.

dj was killed, or is that over a year now!!!

he was hit in a hit and run, see many peoples signatures and posts all over t-f, see his personal page where you can leave memories. buy his t-shirts etc

maybe you knew that

but it shook the trials forum in a big way and many people ride in memory of him

Keita has also moved to koxx from echo.

Was Keita the person in the first Echo Movie/s with the ES3/4 and doing really streety stuff with random colour bike parts like zebra skin and stuff rtotally opposite to what other echo bikes were all built up as?

Did like pedal tabletop taps and stuff.

Hmm...

E-Z Trials are the worst company EVARZ, Tartybikes and Select bikes are fighting it out at the top of the shop pile.

There are more Seniors now than ever (the vast majority being super cool) and there are threads in New Members chat asking why they're not validated and how the members are all horrible to them every 10 seconds.

Martyn Ashton is developing his new frame, which features a longer front end, a rear end designed to use a cheese rim (Koxx, V!Z, Onza etc. 47mm'ers) and a worse-than-usual colour scheme.

Pink came into fashion briefly, till everyone and his dog started using it, therefore became cool (which by our crazy society's nature, made it uncool again...Confused? Me too)

Many people are going the way of the UCI - Long, low and silver frames, with teeny tiny bashrings and front freewheel cranks.

White Industries ENO freewheels are the freewheels that make you cool.

Kings still rule.

Aforementioned Kings can be bought for cheep cheep from Aspirevelotech from the wonderful world of Ebay.

People are starting to go back to using a Michelin on the back, after discovering Maxxis SR and ST compounds wear out too quick on streety stuff.

Tar = (Y), grinds = :)

T-Pro's are EVERYWHERE

99.999% of all Newbies own an Onza

Coustellier frames rule for comp people, but the downtubes are about as thick as that Coke can sitting in front of you.

Dan Ko started importing "Zoo!" Pitbull and Python frames (under the name of "Black Mamba" for £200 each

Everyone who is under 20 and lives in the North bums the f**k out of Craig Lee Scott

Matt Staples is the southerner's version of Vincent Hermance.

Rain is still the gayest thing since this chap was born.

some riders have decided upon tubeless for their bikes. probably weighs the same as a decent tube, but however it apparantly works if u do it correctly.

so what do u think of what has happened since u have been away ezza?

ben

oh and people have only learned to spell properly because there is now a spell checker on one/if not all the skins
