Trials Gear

Hi, I want to get some gear to match the new bike, some repsol hebo gear, the trousers, shirt and jacket. They are quite expensive, just wanted to ask if anyone else has bought them, what sort of quality they are? Are the sizes accurate, I usually wear a 32" trouser in MX gear and small top, Thanks guys

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'm new to trials. I need a new tube for my front wheel. On my enduro bikes, I run Heavy Duty. What do most folks run on trials bikes? my guess is that since everything on a trials bike is light, that folks don't use the heavier tubes. Is this right?

Anyone know what's happening with Raw Sports? Don't seem to be able to get trials jeans in common sizes anywhere....

We've just had a Barbour catalogue delivered at home this morning. They have a number of new jacket styles names "Colley", "Colomer" and "Burgat".

I have a pair of Beta trials pants, 2011 version I think, (refer to attached photograph) having the light blue colour rather than the later bark blue, and I am attempting to find a matching top. Is anybody aware of where I might locate such an item (preferably in XL size)? The local Beta agents (Australia) have not been able to assist as the top is now out of production. Second hand, in good condition, would be acceptable, although new would be preferable.

do we need one? There isn't anything in the handbook but i have noticed some new helmets have them on and others don't. One which doesn't being my new Airoh which i got at christmas.

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.

What do I need to use on my oiled Gaerne boots to keep them happy? Boner

Just found this. IRC What are IRC TL, they're $145 for a pair. Is that cheap ?

Got a new pair of alpinestars boots They are like a sponge,seriously poor waterproofing any one else ?? Marty

what gloves are the best to use dedicated trials or just off road gloves mx, enduro or similar ?

Hi all. Any help would be great. I have a set of alpinestar boots from road riding & a brand new pair of sidi road boots which are what i call only 3\4 length. Although they have a good grip on the trials footrest & have good shin, ankle & toe support. But i am led to believe they are no good for trials type riding. When i ask at places like woosters etc they say trials boots are trials boots. But looking on e-bay & web in general they are mostly advertised as Trials, enduro, motorcross boots. Whats the differenc & basicaly what the H--L do i need to look for. HEEEEELP. Steve. LEEDS.

Hi, Just ordered an Ohlins rear shock for a 2011 Sherco 300 from Splatshop and was wondering if anyone knows the real Ohlins part number for it? It will not arrive to me for about 2-3 weeks and I was wanting to read an owners manual or setup stuff specific to the model in the mean time. Thanks. Brian

Looking for some new gloves just wondering which are the softest as after a days riding on my thumb nuckle tends to rub on the hebo gloves iv got but its made out of the rough material. Just wondering if anyone knows what the jitsie, mots or even normal gas gas gloves are like, obviously wont be as hard wearing if soft/thinner but id rather be comfortable. Cheers
