JoNnY__Mc Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 Looks decent for £25 I wouldn't bother with a disk brake mate, change the pads on both brakes to some plazmatic spanish flys and your laughing As for forks...www.tartybikes.co.uk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walleee Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 I'd just get decent pads to be honest, if you get new forks your probobly looking at buying v-adapters too as most forks are designed to be used with 4-bolt mount maguras.Ride the bike for a while before getting anything new.You wont be able to get proper trials tyres as those ae 20" rims, rather than 19" which is the standard for mod bikes.Bear in mind alot of 19" tyres are rated as 20", so you might be better phoning up tartybikes and asking them what they recommend. I'd sugest a front maxxis creepy crawler, because I don't know anything else is available that is as good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruckus_street Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 Absolute bargain mate!Seeing as your starting out, dont bother going overboard with upgrades, just make sure things like contact points (pedals, handlebar grips, brake levers) are all decent enough, as you'll appreciate those the most. And a decent set of rear brake pads too, and you'll be flyin'!And as for tyres, seein as thats a 20inch rear wheel, Onza StickyFingers are your best bet. They do a 20in rear, instead of having to run a lighter, thinner 20in front tyre like a creep crawlerWelcome aboard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All i'm saying is would the extra width (if any) be worth the crappy reputation sticky fingers have of not being 'sticky' at all. I know for sure that creepy crawlers are great.

Bearded Midget Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 i started on one of those beasts. was a good starter bike fo' sure.if i was you i would get me pads, but save up for an onza t-pro/comp as they are ace bikes to upgrade at an affordible price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
