Pimped Trials Bike
I`m 100% for the idea on the basis it costs the same rides the same and lasts the same as my Beta Just think of the land we could use on these things!

Forum Identities
The amount of abuse I get I find it much easier just too take it full on! plus i`m sure BarryBaines is becoming a household name amongst those that like crashes and pain! I must say though it really is a hard one too dispute/discuss as I agree on most comments like it adds a bit of character. BUT there are the odd few who seem too use there forum names as a mask/shield too hide behind. I think that these are very few and far between which is a massive credit too the forum/site/members etc. etc. So do we all need first name basis? I`d lean towards not, as i`m sure the odd few that do our heads in from time too time are either doing it un-intentially or will sure enough get fed up with being ignored when they request any help with anything?

Jitsie Lever Adjusters
They screw into the lever and are there for quick easy adjustments, admitadly i`ve bent one but too do this I first had too snap my lever smash my twist grip too pieces and bend my bars Shame i`ve always had great stuff from them pegs levers etc although I don`t have an 06 so can`t speak for the `new` style levers? r2w has some but he`s too much of a wuss too need to use them yet!

New Gear Shifter For Rev3
I`ve bent and rebent one till it fell apart and I lost the end bit but I agree fully with sideup in its better too bend the lever than the shaft! I was lucky enough too find another slightly bent lever from a generous donation and gently re-bent this one and it`s going fine. And mine gets a fair bash from time too time, I will happily re-bend this one untill it too completely fails me. I have seen the odd one or two go on ebay but they seem too fetch nearly

Oooh just come across a new part of the trialcast site Accessories and it looks like they are branching out a little so for those of you that aren`t as much of a cheapskate as me and would like a nice bit of bling (useful bling i`ll add) I`d say Trialcast has been one of the best companys i`ve dealt with go forth and buy great christmas idea too?

My New Bike
Bloody hell! no wonder the guy at the shop I bought mine from was getting fed up with me! I bought a two year old bike from a dealer got a great price and spent the day there pretty much making SURE I wouldn`t ever need too go back too him for any upsetting reasons ( was about an hour journey) We both agreed on some very satisfying terms and warrantys that were signed and agreed. Like I said I would rather spend a day there making sure knowing that he is a good dealer for future referance etc. than getting home pee`d right off. I understand you`re circumstances being differnt as in you have a new bike, but like someone else mentions by law every vehicle has to pass a PDI, I even had too wait two days for my latest push bike due too this! There is no way in the world if I bought a new bike that started weeing gearbox fluid that i`d touch it mechanicly it`d be straight back needing a writen explanation on how this could of happened

Basic Exercises
i`m also fairly new too the trials scene ( less than a year ) and still real cr^p as you`ll learn from here so take my advice with a pinch of salt. But the honest truth is................. Time on the bike! The bonus is, if you can find it (I did off here believe it or not) Time on the bike with people that have more experiance than you. This can also be done purely through you`re local trials

Hey Felix, nice choice of camera not too long ago I was going too buy one and done a bit of research etc etc and that definatley came out tops. I have used r2w`s s5500 quite a bit and can say it is an easy too use top quality bit of kit and not too big either (unlike that bloody D1 of his!) There was a post earlier that ended with a few reviews on the s5600 Here and on the link in my first post I seem too remember there being some hard bottom cases at least.
