  • in reply to: Which hydration pack? #249706

    I just bought a Kreiga r20 and love it. Big and waterproof but hardly feels like you have it on. By far the best hydration pack I have owned.

    Mate of mine knocked this one up. Same principal but slightly different design.

    Not good but could have been worse. Ridden with Boris several times now and always go back for awesome riding and even better banter!

    in reply to: Oset trials bikes #237083

    I started my son on a similar bike when he was 3 and it was great to get his riding skills started. It is a Mecatecno brand and was an excellent bike. Bought it from the Hell Team in Sydney who are the importers as well.

    Hell Team Mecatechno Bikes

    The new Oset bikes look very similar to the Mecatecno ones as is the price so it comes down to local support. The Hell Team are trial bike importers and have been excellent for everything I have needed.

    You ride a bit faster than I do. :P

    He rode faster than me most of the day too hence the cramps after the ride from working hard trying to keep up!

    Can’t think of a better way to spend a Thursday ;)

    The other advantage of the tall seat is less distance / effort to go from sitting to standing. I am 6’6 so will take any help I can get!

    My old berg had underbar mount then a set or raisers with Pastrana high bends. Was great to learn how to ride standing up but was extreme. Tried taking the raisers off a few times and didnt change the front end much but the back was noticably sorer at the end of the day

    Also had tall seat and low fastway pegs. These two made a huge difference for me as I had more bike between the legs to grip on to. Steg pegz helped as well especially for up hills.

    You can see in the pic that my new KTM is tall standard. It only has the same bar raisers with standard bars and is only slightly lower than my berg was. Also have the extra tall KTM hardparts seat. Looks good and was only $120 so pretty good I reckon!

    Thanks Murph and Chris what a top ride, the best old bull ride ive beeen on yet.
    Best stack was big Al who endoed his Berg on a steep hill and ended up in the creek the muffler had dirt in it so it must have done at least one flip.
    Awesome ride cant wait to get back there, shame I couldnt do monday, youll have to hold another one soon.

    Big thanks to Muph’s and Chris from me as well. Started off sluggish but once I got my second wind I really enjoyed the day and the challenging trails.

    Hard front braking on a slippery downhill is ok until you hit mesh then up and over I went! A few bruises only so all good and glad my bike didnt hit me or you too Ev!

    Sounds like the new 350 will be broken in sooner than later! Nice.

    I have been wanting to come on one of your rides for a while and looks like I can make this ride. Will be interested to see if I know all your tracks as some have a few different names to what i know.
