Title: almost rolled her trying to get this shot
Post by: chuggaman on January 18, 2006, 22:30:07: the first attempt i got my front wheel on top of the boulder without the aid of a waffle.as the wheel reached the top my near side rear wheel left the floor and i kind of rolled to the left and then tipped back to the right(like standing on a round log).needless to say my butt was twitching and i came back down quickly.
second attempt i used a waffle for more control.this is as far as i got with my n/s rear wheel just about leaving the floor.

the things you do for a photo :roll: and they never look as it was :roll:

Post by: chuggaman on January 18, 2006, 23:21:05: those are my kuhmo mts (everyday use)33x12.5x15.though to be honest they are useless compared to my simex.
i also tried to get up a slippery wet muddy hill that i can normally climb in 1st gear and low revs with my simex on,but i just couldnt get near it. :cry:

bully looking at that pic i probably would not of rolled it :roll:

it still didnt feel nice though :roll:

.as the wheel reached the top my near side rear wheel left the floor

do you mean your offside wheel came off the ground, ie right side, ie drivers side? The near side rear looks well and truely firmly up in the arch.. or am I missing something obvious?

Post by: Bulli on January 18, 2006, 23:45:09: You would have been fine..the 3 link makes a lot of difference on mine...the front flexes much more so doesnt tend to pull the body over as quickly! ..Damn was sure they were bfg's!
