Rockman Slate


Recommended Posts

Hello, iv got an onza t-mag at the minute (20") and as im 6ft3 its abit small and require a 26", iv just got back into riding again after a few years off and why o why did i stop.

trials is the coolest thing ever.

iv been looking at the RockMan Slate and i think it looks amazing and sexy,

but,

how does it ride?

and i heard somthing about the hs33's not fitting properly? after looking at some photos, there looks to be plenty of adjustment, i dont under stand thatone.

if anyone can offer any advise on how it rides and if it is worth me buying it or is there another bike coming out soon that is better for the money?

thanks alot stuntman teza.

Walker on here is sponsered by Rockman and rides the Slate. I had a bash on his at the trial of wessex and it rode pretty nice.

BUT!!! The slates target is advanced riders ONLY, and not suited to street bashing. It is an extremely lightweight frame which will not take kindly to beginer riders missing taps and gaps.

It is a comp frame suited to comp riding

think seriously before spaffing £440 on a frame which if not ridden smoothly may crack and fail.....

Why's Andy got one then? :P

I needed to know that to be honest. I was going to invest in one but the chainstays put me off a bit thinking it was gna be a UCI frame
