lankyri Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 hello mate basically ive been riding for about 4 years this being my fourth now and ive loved every year, mainly because i have learnt something new or i have progressed so much.1st year- started off on a mision reefer but i found trials a bit hard with the co ordination so i was doing more street moves i.e. bunny hops and stairs sets2nd year- i bought my mates saracen mad off him and upgraded it with a few bits like cranks rear wheel and magura i also learnt the basics on this 3rd year- was getting to crampt on the saracen mad so i got the onza t-rex and basically changed the whole bike i also did my biggest gap at the time static 7ft and also dropped my highest 6ft 4th year- getting bored with the bike and also wanted to something a bit longer and lighter so i swapped my t rex frame for my mates bt raven 5 bought a rear wheel (pro 2 on hog) and im slightly progressing with gaps n bluntsif you want pictures/ footage of me and mates riding please dont hesitate to ask hope you enjoy trials as much as i docheers rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A!! Posted August 31, 2006 Report Share Posted August 31, 2006 been riding for just over 2 years now, and im getting extremely bored of riding that T-pro, im either going to get a new frame, or just quit trials all together, cause im liking BMX now. Thanks. I had my T-pro for about two years and started to feel like that. It was either i needed a change or i was going to start bmxing. But in the end i got a GU Typhoon and it got me back into it, i often get like this when i get new parts for my bike it makes me ride it more. I started bmxing as well along side trials and really enjoy it, both compliment each other really well. I started trials about 2 and a half years ago on a t-pro, and a few of months ago i got a new typhoon and love it. As i'm on a new computer i will get some pictures in a bit and post them up, but the spec is in my profile Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A!! Posted August 31, 2006 Report Share Posted August 31, 2006 (edited) As i can't edit my other post i will put the pictures in this one. All the pictures are taken using a camera phone. GU Typhoon short: And for anyone one that is interested, here is my bmx, i recently airbrushed and painted it as i was pretty bored at the time and it seemed like a good idea , although saying that i do quite like it. Haro F2: The top tube was hand painted, and the downtube was airbrushed using templates. Edited August 31, 2006 by huck_it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trialsking 55 Posted August 31, 2006 Report Share Posted August 31, 2006 got my first trials bike just before my 11th birthday, but all i could do for a good 6 months was bunny hop and endo, stuff like that. even though it wasn't as if i was about become UCI champion or anything like that, it got me really interested in the sport. as i grew i was more able to perform the moves i was seeing in the videos i was watching. i'l have been ridin for 4 years this crimbo, but over that time i've had huge breaks and amounts of time off.Haro F2: The top tube was hand painted, and the downtube was airbrushed using templates.thats a really nice paint job mate next time i spray a frame i might use stencils, something individual and unique Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
