Trials Gear

I have a pair of exid gloves and they have ripped,but more importantly they were never that comfortable. Any ideas what to replace them with ?. I know you pay a premium for branded items but are there any unbranded that are comfortable,hard wearing and sensibly priced ? Ideally I would like to pay between

Winter is closing in. Have been tempted to get a better pair of goggles. Wanting to look after this pair. How do you carry them when thier not on your face. Round the neck is a pain, Pocket contents will scratch them, No rucksack. Top of the helmet? How do you manage?

I have Gaerne oil boots with water proof liner, When new, the boots were very tight across my foot ( I have normal width feet) After the boots were broken in they are somewhat wider across my foot. I still can't wear heavy boot socks. I did see Toni Bou's training video and it appeared Toni was using a very thing sock ( Lycra maybe? ) What are these socks? Are they trials Specific? PS: It looks like Gaerne normal boots do not have the water proof liner, is this a good option? Tight boots Terry

I have been looking at boots and I am leaning towards Novogar Trials boots. Anyway I am a UK8/EU42 size (in steel toecap boots - I don

Ive bought new Mots trials clothing and after one trial is stained after a 40c wash. On the bloody adverts DAZ new inproved is amazing however i say b0l10ck5!.

im sick of splashing petrol around from a cheap can like a chump, and was wondering if there is a decent product out there that suits trials bikes. I know the enduro/mx crowd are pretty well covered in this respect So, im wondering what everyone else uses, perhaps there's a particularly good fuel can out there?

I often buy spare parts for our bikes online, I would like to know where you get your supplies. I'm in Italy but I often buy in Spain where it seems convenient (if you're not in a hurry) For example I buy on t3moto or greenlandmx, i saw that there are some good prices on too trialworld. Can any of you recommend other sites in various parts of the world? if it were possible to make a nice list it would be useful for everyone, thanks in advance

im after some trousers that arent tight fitting / lycra based... far to old and to many bumps lol,,, are these loose / ish fitting? cheers kev

I'm a big heavy dude with an active job, so I have quite huge calves. The A-stars Tech T's I tried out when buying my bike weren't even close to closing. I found a couple older threads about this topic, but thought I'd ask around in case there's any new models. Right now it looks like Gaerne Balances with the adjustable strap lugs are my best bet, any other models I should look into?

I bought a Wulftrialsport helmet acouple of weeks back and since then I have rode local Events and what a comfortable Helmets and without a madger price tag on

What rubber does everyone recomend on here?? Ive just worn out a michelin x11, it only lasted about 6 trials. Any long lasting rubbers?

Here in Iran our style of trials riding is more like enduro, the mountains we got here are huge, vertical with loose dirt, the cross riders go up much easier than we do, we tend to sink in the dirt and get stuck half way, so in my case is it a good idea to put moto cross tires in the back, for better climbing in loose sandy dirt? By the way, are we greatly reducing the life spam of our trials bike, by constantly maxing out the throttle, and doing enduro type riding?

It looks like they might become compulsory/mandatory. Who makes them, which ones are recommended? I have one with one plate for the front (or back), for mountainbiking etc and some for MX and enduro but those are to big and hard for trial. But I think a backplate might be more usefull.

Met a USAF forces guy, Sean from Ohio, this week whom works at the local airbase. I meet a few US forces guys through my job, always really friendly and interesting, great customers & a pleasure to deal with. I used to visit the US in my old job and owning lots of yank cars seems to break the ice quickly for both of us. Sean has a Montesa 4RT & a Honda TLR twinshock, been riding over 20 years and competes as an A Class rider, so I'm guessing he's a far better rider than me & better qualified to comment on trials He was all over my SWM TL320 (and gixsers) like a rash and we spoke twinshock trials and old bikes for a while over a cup of tea. He rode the…

Any thoughts on these new O'Neal buckets? Rehash of other brands?... new design? Anyone know anything about them. Getting bored with my airoh & looking something different!!!

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 ??

My last few trials have been in wet conditions and once my gloves are wet they get slimy and slippery. I end up getting arm pump and or very tired hands because of reduced grip. Using renthal Medium compound grips and I like them but they are for **** with slimy gloves. I've searched for this and did not see any recommendations. Anyone have a glove that is tacky even when wet?

Hi guys, New to the sport and just looking around at bikes. A friend of a friend is selling a 2012 Beta EVO 250 in vgc with a few bits and pieces. £2200. It’s hardly been ridden and looks mint in the pics. Does this sound about right for a 6 year old bike? Any advice would be appreciated. Jamie.

I have a Clice soft shell jacket which was bought a couple of years ago but since I only ride occasionally (unfortunately due to work commitments) it has probably only been worn and subsequently washed no more than a dozen times. The problem is the zipped parts are not stitched to the coat but heat sealed which has now come apart from the shell in several areas. Has anyone else had this problem if so what did you do to fix it. Since it is more than a year old I have tried contacting Clice directly via their website and have just been ignored. For the price paid I would have thought it should have stood up to a lot more hard work than I have given it. The after sales …

Just picked up my new Hebo gear. Gone for the blue and yellow. It's looks the bees knees, I just need to learn to ride now
