Jamie_Trials Posted December 24, 2008 Report Share Posted December 24, 2008 You could get an onza (there cheap and reliable) but you will need maggy's (maguras) as i found out from after 2 years riding trials they make a HUGE difference.P.S The t-pro does the job Jamie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Thornton Posted December 26, 2008 Report Share Posted December 26, 2008 Onza are probably the best starter bikes in my opinion. I had an Onza T-Bird and they are really good to learn the basics on.What wheel size were you looking for?Dan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikey Tomo Posted December 26, 2008 Report Share Posted December 26, 2008 Lol, Mikey Tomo, that's a shame, but i've got a Trials tandem for sale if you know anyone who'd be interested? I'll ask around as i think one of my mates wants one. Does it come with Try-all freewheel and Chris King hubs as thats what he is looking for?

middleageman Posted December 26, 2008 Report Share Posted December 26, 2008 No, but it has a basket, a bell and lots of things to make it look good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FeriTrial Posted December 26, 2008 Report Share Posted December 26, 2008 (edited) In Hungary almost everybody start with Magellan frame. Cheap and it has a fairly good geo. By the way I wouldn't buy so expensive bike first. The cheap one is also good to learn with. Edited December 26, 2008 by fer.trial Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
