Good add for those Dura-Ace wheels. Just wish I had a tenth of their skills. Makes me feel a bit better to see that at least they do fall sometimes.

It's the tyres that impress me, but man, that chain ring sure takes a beating.
I'd agree with you, but then we'd both be wrong.

The thing is that these guys do this day in, day out. They learn to land and absorb the forces with the movement of their bodies....... yes, the bikes and wheels are strong BUT there is a lot more to it than just the bikes and wheels.

Great skill these guys have! :w00t: :thumbup: :whistling: :eek:

Its the same as what Hans Ray did 20 years ago..those bikes didnt have suspention, the wheels were probably weaker, he had bar ends and cantileaver brakes.., whats different ;)

I still think old school trials looks pretty ugly.. hipity-hop-off-the-rock kind of stuff.
