N.Wood Posted December 10, 2007 Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 No it won't. Use a Mavic D521 (EX721 or something they're called now ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N.Wood Posted December 10, 2007 Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 Try your hardest to find something else... Theres always VERY good trials frames on here that cost less than £100 second hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zordon Posted December 10, 2007 Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 Since you are about a 47mm wide rear rim, I'm guessing you are going to ride trials. The frame you mentioned is definitely NOT a trials one. Don't trust those crap advertisements provided by companies that have no idea about what biketrials is.

Lawnmowerman Posted December 10, 2007 Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 Get a Base TA26 off tartybikes. They're superb frames and they're doing them cheap at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shogun do NOT make trials bikes.You'd be much better off getting a real bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krisboats Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 No it won't. Use a Mavic D521 (EX721 or something they're called now )Does in my gatecrasher... AND you can fit maggies to it if the mounts are offset for the widest possible width. Doesn't work with brand new pads mind but it can be done.... JUST.
