Ross McArthur Posted August 3, 2008 Report Share Posted August 3, 2008 (edited) Sorry I know it was miss leading. The thing is, I think it would be amazing to see a 24" Charge trials bike....like the one Akrigg had only with smaller wheels.Anyone seen one that might look like this or similar??

Jsy Ben Posted August 3, 2008 Report Share Posted August 3, 2008 Try looking into Curtis bikes or the obvious...Leeson bikes.Have a hunch the so called "Charge" bike you mentioned that Akrigg was riding was actually something else, just stickered up as a Charge...either way I think the closest resemblance to what Akrigg was riding is a Charge Iron Ti Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fixed Pants™ Posted August 3, 2008 Report Share Posted August 3, 2008 What would be so great about a Charge trials bike? You reckon they could get a decent trials geo? Do you know what geo it would be?If you know the geo, and the looks, get Leeson to make you a copy. Steel as most charges are too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnyMilton Posted August 3, 2008 Report Share Posted August 3, 2008 Have a hunch the so called "Charge" bike you mentioned that Akrigg was riding was actually something else, just stickered up as a Charge...It was a Charge, it was one of the Prototypes they brought out, and Akrigg was asked to test ride it, but he didnt like the geo, so they went back to the drawing board, and they are due to have a new design out soon...

basher Posted August 3, 2008 Report Share Posted August 3, 2008 Didn't he have a ti frame is that the charge one, and if it was to retail it would of been some crazy price i believe like over a grand or something.Sorry cant help, are you just wanting pics though or you wanting to build something.

Ross McArthur Posted August 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 I just liked the idea of a Ti 24" trials bike because no one seems to have one???Akrigg rode the 26" version but probably snapped the thing. Im sure he was helping them out with a good "idea" at the time then he picked up the full Mongoose sponserI just like the finnish that Ti frames have, kinda like Aortas(I know there not Ti) have and the way the Charges have. has no one seen anything then? not even 24" jump bike wise?

JohnyMilton Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 (edited) But I thought he rode for Mongoose now?He rides for Mongoose, but does not have to ride a mongoose frame, unless its a dh frame, but thats a differnet kettle of fish...They dont care what he rides for his trials bike, but they do wnat him ridng there DH and XC bikes...
