A friend of mine just posted this on Trials Forum and thought I'd share. Proof that it's the rider and not the bike, seriously mindblowing

Love it, positive vibes.

Makes me think about when I first got into MTBing and had next to no money, just get out and ride what you've got however you want.

Makes me want to dig out my old worthless spares and send them over to these guys to put to good use!. You know the stuff, worth nothing but perfectly usable but you'll never use it!. I'm far too lazy to do that though.

Hopefully one of the manufacturers watching will sort them out with some new kit, deserves a chance to show what he can do on a more suitable bike, a follow up vid would give them loads of exposure in return..

in fairness, it would be amazing if someone like red bull did actually pick him up....

Ace! Thats what cycling is all about.
Maybe we should start a crowd fundraiser for him?
It doesnt take much to get him a nice Inspired trial bike.. I'd happily put in some money.

Its a great vid no doubt, but hey.. chucking any 30lb bike around is a mighty piece of work.

Good on him, gotta love mucking around on bikes.

Shame he can't get support for a light one 😐

Hmmm, not sure about the postage charge,any way to remove that? Don't mind a few Euros tax if he gets the rest though

There are BMX scenes in some of the craziest places in the world. sometimes a sponsored team will go over, shred with the locals and then leave their team bikes as a thank you.

As far as I know TMS are looking into sorting him with a full trials build, they just need to arrange shipping on it.

EDIT: Just seen the link above

That's ace that people have got together to buy him that, but part of me wonders if that bike will be as repairable as his old one and what about spares availability for the bling parts?

You'd hope the word "sponsor" would mean something and they've provided spares or at least a way to get them rather than just a one-off bike
