January 6, 201214 yr iv only just started riding trials bikes this video is my 2nd ride on the bike. and i love it, trials is the way forward, nothing special but like i said this is my second ride. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQ99LkVmpxo&list=UUgJHeLaAVv2T2GBoVfebbEg&index=1&feature=plcp
January 7, 201214 yr Very good..now make yourself some flags and if you find out how to make non-magnetic flags let me know!! my bike seems to be drawn to the outside of the bloody things
January 7, 201214 yr Author cheers for the comments everyone. thought i was pretty crap to be honest but judging by everyones comments im not as bad as i thought. planning on do a few practice trials with a local guy and then see how they go then poss try and enter local trials. one thing i cant work out is how the hell do you fling the rear end round when standing still? i can do 180 endo's on my jump bike piece of cake, but if i try to do it the same on the trials bike i either dont move or i move an inch and then foot down grr. planning on doing a few videos of my progression soo ill try to keep this thread updated
January 7, 201214 yr One step at a time dude, keep going the way you're going and everything else will fall in place. While you're at it, convince all your other jump bike mates that trials is the way forward GJ
January 8, 201214 yr That's damned good riding for a beginner, you must have done a fair bit on a non engined bike? Been riding 30 years and rarely see anyone in the first few months looking that comfortable on the bike. The hopping is all about working WITH the suspension rather than fighting it, compress it, use the rebound to just help it off the ground using your front brake to compress the forks and ease it round.
