Hi everyone, Im over in Troy, NY USA and I just purchased an unbuilt 26" 2006 KOT MS2 Long frame and fork. Ive built many bikes but never a trials bike. I'm trying to post on here to learn and purchase some used components. It looks like biketrialseller.com has some nice echo stuff and Ive been looking at Maguras. If anyone can validate me I'd appreciate it, im not a kid at 45 and not here to make trouble. Merry Christmas

Hi I'm rob 26 from Worksop Nottinghamshire.

I've recently bought a onza T-Vee a's a bit of a project to restore and get back in to trials. I used to ride alot of trails and trials when I was younger but kind of lost touch when working and cars came along, but I'm trying to get back in to riding especially trials!

I've been doing lots of watching and learning but I'm at that point where I just want to get the bike back together and get riding!!

Thanks for reading

Rob

Hey guys,

The names Ty. Currently in Fort Collins, Colorado building up my first dedicated trials bike, an echo pure.

Scroungin parts from the web, and all I've got left to get is the forks so she should be trials worthy here in a week or so.

Just got the first snow here in CO, so it should be an interesting winter...

Hi, probably the most unexciting introduction you'll have here!

(I'm joking, by the way)

I'm Matt, used to love (attempting) trials as a kid, got rid of the trials bike when I moved house aaaaand now I regret it. I really want to get back in to it but I'm quite far behind on what's changed etc and I've for some reason got my heart set on a Zoo Pitbull. Probably way above my league, but :need a shrug emoticon:

That's about all for now, expect a few stupid questions incoming on the short questions forum.

Thanks!

- Matt

Cheers for all the great advice, Tom

Hey guys!

I'm totally new to this kind of sports, but I really want to start riding trial bikes. What I want to know from you guys is, if it's clever to start riding with the age of 18, or not. I can't wait getting my first bike, but I'm afraid it's too late for starting riding. Also I please you to help my out with buying a bicycle. The bike I chose so far is the "Trial Bike 24" Onza Zoot 2010".

grn2b8kj.jpg

Trailmarkt (Germany website) - Trial Bike 24" Onza Zoot 2010

Is it a good one for beginners or may I search for another one? I don't want to spend too much money, because I'm not sure if I can manage riding good. I just want to try doing so, because I always wanted to.

Thank you guys for helping me :)

Markus

Hey everybody, hope your all good, i've been on Trials Forum for a year or two now but i still havent got round to introducing myself so here goes.

My names Jamie, most call me Jimbam, I'm 19, i ride a GU 26'', think its a tp or an st i cant quite remember, whatever the case it is a 2008 model frame,

my main hobbies are trials, bmx, mtb and gaming as i'm studying a games design course at the minute.

I live and ride around the East Norfolk area, Diss is my home town, i'm currently building a trials course in my back garden as my granddad and dads business can land me a load of spare pallets whenever i see them both, hopefully going to make a few new riding friends on here, and great to see TF back up and running again! i was away for so long i didn't even know it had gone down! anyway, hopefully i can get to know a few of you and maybe arrange several rides towards the summer!

cheers!

Hey guys and gals,

My name is J.J. Gregorowicz and hail from Bloomsburg Pennsylvania USA. I've been riding trials since 1991, both stock and mod. Quit for a couple years due to knee surgeries and starting to get back into it as well as competing at a national level in mototrials. I have a handful of national championships here, made quite a few of the BIU world rounds back in the day. Hoping to make some new friends on here and interested in the 24" scene.
