Jack Heard does and rides brilliantly

this year it is on June 9th

Last time I rode trials was around 15-20 years ago, then I rode bmx for around 10 years then stopped about 8 years partly due to starting a family and partly due having an injured knee. I had a real itch to ride again though so tried getting back into bmx twice mainly because that's what my friends rode but to try cut a long story short, I had too much fear. I've always still had that itch to get back into trials, especially after Danny's 2009 came out so got back into it last February and loving it. The great thing about trials is you can practice it anywhere. I ride with a great bunch in Aberdeen, we are all fairly similar age, 40'ish, we all push each other but ride within our own limits. That would be the best advice I could give, ride within your limit but push it when you can.

I recently picked up a set of Hope Tech 4 Trialzones and loving them, the modulation is fantastic compared to my previous Avid BB7's with organic pads which worked very well but very on/off.

This should answer your question hopefully: https://www.inspiredbicycles.com/upload/site/www/main/doc/2022-height-chart.jpg

I would really like to take my two boys to see the Drop N Roll guys, I know they where at the world cup last weekend We have seen The Clan which is great to see, especially with you @Ross McArthur😉

Looks awesome! I always fancied a Leeson with the peg conversion, if only I could go back in time!

The weight saving sounds good but not sure if I can justify the cost, £28 for the 24" version or £5.50 for the Continental 24" tube I currently run.

Are those Tubolito tubes any good?

An awesome looking build this!

Looking good 👍 If you're ever in/near Aberdeen, give me a shout. I'll be up in Aviemore in August and planning to take a day trip to the Inverness skateppark and pump track.

I got back into trials this year after around 15 years off and around 10 years away from bmx. I went with a 24" with a TMS Silex 24 which I was lucky to get through the cycle to work scheme through Shaun from FXN. Could be an option for you, TMS make a Silex 26 too depending what direction you. I'm from more of a bmx background which is why I went 24 and not regretted it:

Sorry just noticed I missed this comment, I take it you've watched the Go Fast Pull Up Jimmy Levan documentary? Well worth a watch if you haven't already! I used to ride a Metal Kizz as was a fan of Dan Price

A photo from last night, still loving this and enjoying the whole learning process again
