Trials Gear

Just wanted to hear peoples thoughts on them before I go and order a whole outfit. Seems a good price is it good quality ? I've got big hands and was wondering if anybody has tried on the XXL glove size too ?

a friend of mine asked me for some advice on helmets the other day. he's been out of the trials world a about ten years and when he pulled out and dusted down his trusty nolan helmet he found the foam mites had eaten away all the padding. anyway. he asked me what budget helmets are on the market as i have a fair bit of knowledge on trials gear out there. or so i thought. the budget helmet market seems to have exploded with so many new brands with their own trials based open faced helmets. having looked there does seem to be some models out there that look similar to each other. one in particular is the wulfsport one. its reasonably priced at approx £60. i know quite a…

I'm just getting into trials and need some kit as I'm not to keen on the prospect of sprained/broken ankles and smashed up shins. So, can anyone give an opinion on this years Wulfsport Boots? They're obviously at the lower end of the market, but should do a total novice alright for a few years right? One chap I've spoken to is willing to do me the Boots, and an Airflo Helmet for

I'm in West Lothian,Scotland and i need to buy a pair of trial boots.I dont know what make of boot i want yet. Does anyone know of any shops where i can actually try a few pairs on before deciding which ones to buy?. Thanks.

Any recomendations? Preferably under

Hello, Does anyone know of a U.S. Hebo dealer? I need some boots.

It is probably a riding technique error but my Rev3 chain eventually saws a hole through my boot. The swing arm also looks polished in that area on both sides so I must hug the bike a little but never feel interference when riding. My feet are little so it is not a size issue. I had a leather patch sewn on but now it has sawed through that. Can anyone recommend a more permanent fix? Would some kind of plastic work?

My Sidi boots feel quite heavy, anyone know which trials boots are the lightest?

Does anyone know who stocks and sales 'Boot Buddy' in the UK or by mail order? I have seen a few guys with them and now want a pair. It looks like a elasticated cover that goes over the boot top and riding trousers to stop all the mud and crap going down your boots. The ones I've seen have been red with Boot Buddy UK * USA in white lettering. I asked the guys who had them and they got them at a show but need to know a supplier. Did try Goggling it but to no avail.. Any help much appriciated.

Been at Corten Trials Park today and it was cold, frost on ground when we left home. It also rained on and off all day. I bought some black Wulfsport neoprene trials gloves and this was the first time I used them. Toasty warm hands and fingers all day, thin enough not to notice them. I really suffer from the cold although on the plus side I can sit out in 42c all day lounging around. I bought large as my hands are 10cm across the palm and they fit correctly. Excellent purchase for £18, wish I'd bought some years ago. Tried everywhere for grey but not around in large and Wulfsport are dropping the grey according to my supplier...?

I noticed a Japanese rider wearing boots just like the works riders, with the stitched on sole, so are they the new 2014 boot we can buy. I need a new pair soon (mine are getting a bit tired) and would rather wait for a new version if there is one.

In every shoe i wear im a uk 11, i just recived my size 11 (uk) 12 (usa) boots and they are MASSIVE, i cant even touch the end of the boot with my toes and also my left foot can move around quite freely. Any one else had this problem? its so bad im not sure if i need to go down 2 sizes and not just 1!! Any idea? (i bought off the internet so cant just try smaller ones on as theres no shops around me!)

Just about to order some Gaerne Balance Classic boots and just noticed that some websites recommend going up a size due to the inner waterproof liner, is that the case? I'm usually a UK9/euro43 so which should I order? UK 9 - Euro 43 UK 9.5 - Euro 44 UK 10 - Euro 45 Thanks

Hi. My local trials shop doesn't sell what I need (some alpine star boots). I live in Middlesbrough and am off to Leeds and Newcastle shortly. Does anybody know of any decent trials bike shops in them areas? Cheers chris

I bought an L-size (59-60cm) Arai trials helmet some time ago, but it’s a little tight from front to back. All my other helmets, none of which are Arai, are the same measurement but fit well. I’ve hear Arai Pro Shop services adjust helmets to fit, but has anyone any experience of having them adjust a tight helmet to fit a larger head? I would ask the local shop directly, but I don’t speak the local language well enough yet. It’s not an english speaking country,

I managed to drop my Airoh helmet from a shelf until a slate floor from about 1.5 metres high. At the time it was still in the cloth bag and I didn't think much about till tonight when I went out for a practice and found the damage to the top of the helmet I'm concerned that it may have damaged it more than I realise and was wondering what peoples opinions are on it? Should I replace it with a new one? Cheers.

Hi Guys, .looking for trials pants ! not lycra ! so am i just looking for any off road motorcycle pant ???

Just a word of warning, got a pair of askew trials boots less than a year ago and all the sticking has dissintergrated,and sone of the thin leather has torn, they are pretty much useless. It may be an isolated case but the old saying goes you get what you pay for.

anyone any experience with forma boulders? i fancy trying these http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FORMA-2011-BOULDER-TRIALS-QUAD-OFFROAD-BOOTS-BROWN-11-/360435043246?pt=UK_Motorcycle_Boots&hash=item53eb9a4bae

Hi, Looking for some new riding gear after my Clice trousers seem to becoming unstitched and generally starting to look scruffy after two years. Was looking at Raw trousers and jacket as they seem a reasonable price but what are the like ? Anyone any experience with them ??
