Trials Gear

Hi all, I have been looking for a pair of trousers to wear when riding, looking around at All big makes they all remind me of woman’s leggings! Can anyone recommend a looser fitting pair? I did think of motocross trousers but worry they wouldn’t have the stretch. Something about wearing skin tight trousers doesn’t apeal thanks

The sole on my Gaerne Balance oiled boots have now worn flat. Has anyone any experience of resoling, using these soles? Pair Soles Boots Trial Gaerne Balance | eBay Thanks

I've just got some Gaerne balance natural oiled boots and some duckswax to treat them with. But how often do you need to apply the wax? After every ride? And do they need treating from new?

The only good thing about winter is: when the temperature drop below 20 f, I take all my trial gear outside for 4 to 6 hours. I always dry, clean and desinfect all clothing, helmet etc. after every ride but noting kill bacteria like the cold treatment Guy

I have a new Hebo trials helmet zone 4 in white size M 57-58 if anyone is looking for a bargin been on my head for 45 minutes and found it’s to tight Any takers

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

Does anyone have a full carbon helmet and would be kind to measure the weight?? I m looking for the lightest full carbon Trials helmet for a patient of mine that just underwent neck surgery and is a newbie in trials!! any advice is greatly appreciated . In the bicycle world manufactures are very proud of their products and specs and weights are always listed. Obviously not in trials? Thanks all

Garne boots are a good fit for me but they do not offer a lot of protection. Once aged a bit, they feel like bedroom slippers so I want something with more protection. I have been using MSR dual sport boots but they are obsolete. I just ordered some Alpinestars but when I tried them on, they are too narrow in the ball/ toe area and skinny in the calf area. Reviews suggest that SIDI is also small in the toe area. Is there another brand that is wide in the front, has plenty of room in the calf and offers better protection. How is the fit with Forma? One article reviewing trials boots even recommend these as trials boots. Has anyone tried them? htt…

What are the coldest and least waterproof boots? I love my Forma Boulders enough to have two pairs, but holy hell they get hot! Is there anything on the market that's reasonably priced and has big holes in it? I might ask a shoe repair place to add some holes to my rough pair or something

I have just bought and received Alpinestar tech T boots from this company in 5 days, highly recommended and at a very good price as well! cheers derek

Hi all fancy getting a airoh whats the difference between the models like the wintage and the convert and breaker just after some thoughts before the shops open thanks

Im looking for the Hebo zone carbon from a few years back, the black one with the gold vents. Anyone know of anywhere still doing them or someone willing to sell? Size Small. Thanks

Has anywone tested the Vertigo clothes made by Wolfpro?

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.

It says on label cold water only, polyester and spandex, has anyone machine washed at a certain setting, my pants are minging

Thinking of getting a pair of Alpinestar tech T,is the sizing accurate?Anybody got any opinions about them,good or bad,thanks in advance

hello again, when I lat did trials, about 15 years ago, I used some alpinestars gore tex socks, which worked great in keeping my feet dry, even after trudging my way thru streams . my boots would be soaked thru, but the goretex socks would keep my feet dry. they were great, but would eventually leak when the membrane got damaged, or just through use. mine lasted a couple of years tho, so I cant complain (but I will) Im struggling to find them now, they must have stopped making them. I see sealskinz socks are still about bit havnt used them. they are meant to be water proof. Anyone use them, and are they actually completely waterproof? If I was wearing them…

Hi all. I have just bought an oset for my kids, and I want to get some clothing and helmets for them. Is there anywhere to buy these second hand? I have looked on ebay but there seems to be very little for sale. As kids stuff gets outgrown so quickly I thought there would be loads for sale!!! Any info would be great. Thanks all. Chris

My second pair of Gaernes have bit the dust and fancy trying a pair of Stylmartins. Just wondered if anyone could offer advice on how the Stylmartins size up? For what it's worth I wear a 45 in Gaernes. I would prefer to go and try some on but it's a fair old round trip to a dealer, so generally works out cheaper to take an educated punt and risk the postage costs of a return... Thanks in advance

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,
