staphan Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 (edited) Hi, I'm not the right guy to say what bike would be best for you but what are you willing to spend? Because there are lots of good bikes, that are really expensive Edited April 6, 2009 by staphan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke_zoo Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 Welcome,Read the rules and you will be validated in know time.CLICK HERE...for the rules.Hello Mr New Guy!Here's a few tips on getting validated quicker.Before all the others - Stop posting damn for sale/wanted topics in NMC - Tomm1. Read the guidelines.2. Stop talking in bollocks text talk, it takes me a good while to translate it to any readable text.3. There's a spell checker - use it if are illiterate / dyslexic.4. Get rid of those god awful little ASCII pictures in your signatures.I just noticed reading through how many 'tards there are posting rubbish replies and expecting validation!It doesn't deeply trouble me I just find it funny that people can be so thick.VA-LI-DATE it's easy as 1-2-3! Good day.Luke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davey1991 Posted April 7, 2009 Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 Good to see even more new faces and as said don't post for sale or wanted topics until your validated which, by the looks of things, wont be long.Good bikes for you completely depend on various things.Your riding style- street, natural or comp style riding.Your weight to strength ratio, if you want something strong and light its going to be more expensive than something that is only strong or only light.Your price range, if your looking to buy new you will get alot less for your money than using ebay or the for sale section of the forum.and the most importand one Your preferance really none of us can tell you what you should and shouldn't ride, only you can decide what best fits your style and what you feel most comfortable on. Welcome and i hope i've been some help.Davey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triumph Posted April 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2009 Thanks for all your posts.I'm sorry for my miss spelling of trials, i forgot to read my post before posting lol.@ davey1991Well my old riding style was more street then riding natural and comp style riding.And my price range im looking at from 1000 to 1500 at the end off this summer.I have been looking at some bikes from 20" upto 26" and i do like the looks of the 24" Inspired Fourplay and the price is cheap for what is on the bike.@ :)zoo!Yes mate i have looked at the rules before i become a member, but thank you for letting me know bud.ThanksTriumph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trialschallenger Posted April 8, 2009 Report Share Posted April 8, 2009 welcome back as said above nice to see returning faces. on ther point though ifyour going to go for a 24" id say to go for the ashton,and upgrade it a little the price range is pretty resnable on that ashton bikesim about 6ft and around 11 stone MY BIKE mid way between natural and street i think seems a resnable balance to me,in my opinion like i said above id buy a new bike pretty standard then mod it up with 1000 to spend you could easily change a standard bike to a pimped bike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triumph Posted April 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 I do like the looks off the ashton bikes and they are cheap as chips only like 500 saves me alot of money going for the bike I was looking at, at like 1400 lol. Thank you for the site I might have to see about the ashton .And I live in a little town called skegness. I know some off the riders there, but I dont get along with some off them because they can be really big tits, it was because off some off them i stopped riding and plus my back wouldn't let me do alot aswell.I looked at tartybikes website and seen some good bikes on there aswell, like the new koxx bikes I do like the koxx black sky and koxx red sky.@ JackC123I dont mind if I do or do not get validated im just here to make some new mates and get back into the sport really, validating mean nothing to me.Thanks for all your posts.Triumph.

davey1991 Posted April 10, 2009 Report Share Posted April 10, 2009 Yay, another f**king hello thread.*sigh*How long will it take you to get banned?Triumph, you mentioned the inspired, there are alot of people getting into the 24" side of trials, the Geo of the 24" bikes tends to be far less trialsy than the 20" and 26" bikes. This means that the bike will be easier on your back for one and allow you to do a variation of things, the bike will be perfectly capable of trials, not so much as the pure trials bikes but good enough. And it wont mind to much about being thrown around on ramps and spinning about like a mad thing. Again as i said earlier personal preferance best thing would be to watch videos and get out anf ride some peoples bikes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
