trials_pimp Posted May 11, 2009 Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 You will need to decide what type of Bike you want.There are mod Bikes, which have a 20" Front wheel and a 19" rear wheel.http://www.trialsin.com/catalog/images/pro...e/metaMod_1.jpgMod bikes are easier to learn on, specialy if your small. They are nothing like BMX's to ride, despite how they look.The downside of a Mod bike is they arent too easy to ride distances on, and can be difficult if your tall.Then there are Stock Bikes, which are based on Montainbikes.http://www.whycycle.co.uk/cms-files/0woodstok.jpgStock trials bikes are better for taller riders, and are easier to ride longer distances. You can have gears on if you like aswell.Both bikes can be used to learn on, and its manily down to what sort of rding you want to do.Best thing for you to do would be to go out and meet some trials riders, and see if you can have a ride on a couple of bikes. Try and ride both types and see which one suits you more.Both types of bike can be picked up pretty cheap, £300 will get you a brand new stock or mod, ready built for trials.
