bob Posted June 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2006 Low North looks good, perhaps you could go there when a trial is on there are loads of kids on trials bikes, and you could ask what the situation with practicing on a push bike is. Also in the scarborough there are those new sea defences.......... What about Dalby? bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kieldp Posted June 19, 2006 Report Share Posted June 19, 2006 Grind your rim to improve braking and get some decent pads made for grinds. Don't use tar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob Posted June 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2006 Since im not buying new and so the bike won't be in a bike shop unless it needs to be then im going to try running it with smooth rims until i get fed up and the i will send the wheel away for a grind.

bikerdude2006fr Posted June 21, 2006 Report Share Posted June 21, 2006 WHAT????? You grind your own rims mate Send them away Golly! Gosh! you get your angle grinder wack it at about a 45 degree angle and rub it up and down your rim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob Posted June 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2006 ha you haven't seen me with an angle grinder I'm only gonna grind it if i'm not satisfied with the brake or if i am atking it into a bike shop for a true anyway. I'm guessin i'll bend the wheel first so it'll probably be a bike shop doing it. I'm also not very good at truing wheels. If i do get fed up with a slippy brake then i might get the grinder back out, but i'll have a good practice first. Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
