Best Muni/Trials Shoe
I would not get the 510 impacts for trials.
Trials riders need flexibility and ease of movement. I'd hate to ride a
rail with these shoes.

Do Moments strip easily?
Any product will be ruined by incompetence.
When tightening bolts and pedals, go slow and don't use excessive
strength. If you have to use force to get anywhere, chances are that
something is wrong...

A thomson seat post + wallis seat base is the best set up possible.

You can always go higher. I haven't seen anyone max out yet. Even long
