Sam Nichols Posted July 26, 2009 Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 Bikes people started on. Most people suggest a T-Pro for that kind of budget and as a first bike. The replies in this topic mostly sway towards the T-Pro too. It took me 10mins to find these few topics, if I was you and I was looking to start a sport I had no idea about, I would search and trawl through the forums getting as much info as I can. But then again I always get obsessional about things I'm spending my hard earned bunce on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then again I always get obsessional about things I'm spending my hard earned bunce on.the main reason for me starting trials is me and one of my mates want to try something something new because we have been riding bmx and we are starting to get bored of it and then i was going to buy a DJ and he was going to buy a DH but then we couldnt be bothered then he said i might buy a trials bike so i agreed and here a i am now looking for what bike to buy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alex-trials-boy Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 (edited) i am going to start trials but i have never rode a trials bike before and i am looking to spend around £200-250 on a trials bike can anyone give me a good idea of what bike a should be looking for and any good makes because i never heard of makers that make trial bikes and also i was wondering whether you could give me any ideas of what bikes you started off with from 2007 upwards cheers tomTo begin with are you looking to buy a mod ora stock (20"or26") a mod (20") would be good as a starter bike as you can chuck them round alot. The makes well or you money i dont know if your looking to buy new or 2nd hand but if your looking 2nd hand try ebay or help other people on the forums and the you might get validated and then you could buy one of the forums. Right the makes thers: Atomz, Echo, GU, Koxx, Meta, Monty, Onza, RockMan, Yaabaa and ZOO! but an onza T-pro or a onza T-bird would suit you fine. Down to your last question "what bikes did some ofus start on" well i started and am still on my 07 ZOO! pitbull but you would not be able to buy that bike as it is £1135.25 but good luck finding the bike that you love good luck with trials mate, hope ive helpe you...Alex... Oh and one more thing here is a web site that sells trials bikes and parts: http://www.selectbikes.com/index.php?act=viewCat&catId=4 and/or http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/ Edited July 27, 2009 by alex-trials-boy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
