trials_pimp Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 With £500 you could easily build yourself a nice mod bike.You could build a really good bike with carefull budgeting and a mix of new and second hand parts.Allways worth keeping an eye on the sales section here, mayeb even PM people if you cant post there (not sure if you can PM as a pre member)I would reccamend the Adamant A1 or the GU, both ride very nicely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
