Hi there. I've worn a donjoy armour knee brace on my left leg following a trials crash ten years ago leading to me having ACL and MCL reconstruction. The brace is very effective at protecting ligaments but doesn't protect my knee cap or shin area. You can buy an add on guard which would do this but they are expensive and would still leave my right leg totally unprotected. I recently planted my right knee and tibia on a rock and luckily escaped with mild swelling and bruising but it made me think about further protection. I don't want to be on an operating table again. I don't compete anymore and simply ride for fun so not worried particularly about bulkiness. I'…

I could do with a new crash helmet, I like the idea of the Shoei TR3 as I use Shoei on my road bikes and they've saved my life in the past. But 1050 grams sounds a little heavy for trials? The Hebo Zone 4 Carbon is listed as 950g, albeit that's got a carbon fibre shell. Anyway, what do you guys recommend? A removable / washable liner is going to be an important factor, I'm quite sweaty ?

hi folks.... ive read a few threads debating the use of full face lids and as i can gather, the general majority of riders prefer the standard open face trials helmet for obvious reasons of visibilty and movement.... im new to trials and can agree with them issues, but ive just been watching some vid's on youtube and seen some bloody horrendous crashes that did make me think..... i saw a vid with adam raga which looked just bloody horrible !!!allthough im not attempting anything like the riding mr raga pulls off im sure my falling off skills could give him a run for his money.....hahaha... anyway i probably wont, but it did make me think weather or not i should wea…

Hello all...new to trials...read all I can on this here and other places and I'm looking for some help. I have the Gaerne Balance Oiled...great boots...but they are a little full in the cut...added insoles and that helped a bit but the question is do other brands fit smaller (not length), slimmer? I have read some make comments that the Sidi Trial Zero boots fit more snugly in the foot around the ankle and up the leg...if you have had several brands to include these please comment. I noticed some riders seem to wear there boots fairly loosely is that something people just have to tolerate based on the manufacturers middle of the road cut or is that a common trait with rid…

I didn’t take care of my Jitsie guards. From the moisture last season, they are now hard, dry and lost form. Short of buying a new set of guards, does anyone have recommendations to refresh the guards? I can use them but they are not as comfortable as when new. Just wondering if other folks experienced similar condition.

I'm looking for a new trials helmet. Some have no venting, some have what appears to be a minimal amount and the Airoh has huge vents. I tried Airoh on in a shop, but the shop keeper said the vents aren't that effective. I wondered what other peoples experiences are?

My 16 year old Hebo boots are pretty much toast. I traditionally wore Sidis for MX and Enduro, so thought I might try the Zero 2. Actual user reviews are non-existent. Can anyone weigh in? How do they compare to other boots you've owned? I normally wear 43's, but my Hebo's are 42's. I prefer a tight fit for trials... how is the Sidi sizing? Any issues? Thanks, Ward

I bought one of these ES328 EZ-Tach +PLUS from JBTools US on ebay around $60 AUD delivered - I got it mainly to more accurately set the timing on my Cota 247 . But I started with my TLR200 set the unit to 4stroke single and it told me I was idling at 2400 rpm - so I assumed it has a waste spark on the top of the exhaust stroke and set it to 2 stroke and sure enough fluttered a bit over 1200 rpm. Using same settings on the Montesa and it indicated 2400 then 400 then 1200 then 2400 all over the shop and it doesn't matter where I place the unit use it or whether I am using the clip on sensor. Was I being foolish expecting something this cheap to work - or is there a…

Hi, I’ve just bought a pair of boots and they’re like a brown suede effect with leather on other parts of the boot. My question is, if you have similar, what do you use to waterproof them? I’m a newbie, so any advice would be appreciated. Cheers
