Hi, I've just bought my lad a used Saracen 2 zero MAD (if that makes a difference??). It needs new tyres and thought I'd ask for some advice. Which should I buy (He's only 9 so I guess the cheapest? but is that wise?) What should I expect to pay ? Any advice on where to buy them (we're between Leeds and Bradford, West Yorks) ? The current tyres say 20 inch but someone told me we need 19inch on the rear. Looking on the internet there seems to be both. I presume we need 20inch. True ? The widths seem odd, the bike has 2.125 on the front and 2.25 on the rear. Are these standard sizes ? If I can't/don't match these widths, what do recommend I go for and would I ne…

I got a unicycle for my birthday last september and after a week of trying igave it up as a bad job and everytime the wife enters my private place(the garage!) she gives me loads of grief about not using it so im gonna give it another go. Any tips would be very gratefully recieved, i dont have any long handrails to use although i could always cobble something together at work if this is the only way to do it!! Cheers

Just walked in from riding with a Unicyclist, WOW! I just can not believe the stuff this kid can ride, like jumping from the center of a log pile out and over with a 4' drop. If you have not ridden with a uni rider you be amazed of the stuff they attempt and make! I just can not believe it. Well, now I'm headed out to dig a grave for my motorcycle, it's over! I've been riding this huge log pile for months, trying to get the final clean, then this youngster shows up and on the first try gets a clean. It changes a mans mind rapidly, my wife keeps telling me to take up gardening, maybe its time! sam I'am with chickens that lay green eggs!

Evenin folks, Ok, I ride motocycle trials as you all know...and if you didnt, you know now. I want to start bike trials as a cross training and also because I want a new hobby, a new challenge. We live in Derbyshire, and the exact place where we live is GREAT for trials (street) and its just a shame to not ride it. Me and my friend want to start, money is not a problem (within reason, couple of hundred will be ok) but...what bike do I start on? For me...I am skinny and weigh next to nothing, I am fussy about what I ride, must look good, must be good. Must be a 20". For my mate...Hes about 6ft-ish, big lad, will also be fussy and will also want a 20". Ok, the questi…

Well done to Sam Oliver , managed to pick up sponsorship from MRS, the UK importer for Monty. No doubt this will be a great help as he (and the Oliver crew) make an attack at the World Rounds. I'm not one for blowing people's trumpet when they start to get a bit good, but I've never seen anything like it. It gives you a tingle down your neck. I've always thought that if you really want to excel at something, you have to go absolutely over the top - training training training. Sam is doing exactly that. Watch this space.

Some of you will know Sam and Tom Oliver. Ex Motorcycle Trials Riders (well still ride now and then) - converted to bike trials fairly recently, and been training hard, including the odd excursion with Ot Pi. The work showed today at round 1 of the British Champs: Sam came 1st in his age group (12-13) by a fairly large margin, losing 5 marks, the next being around the 40 mark. Tom came 2nd in the 10 year olds. Not a bad result at all - keep it up lads
