Page Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 Hi all,I have a chance to buy a bike with a 1065 wheel base (Koxx Level Boss) and 26" wheels. I'm new to trials and am unsure regarding the length of bikes. Therefore, I wonder if this might be too long for someone whom is 5'7'' (i.e. me!)? Thanks in advance for any replies.

Muel Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 Too long? If anything that will be too short!I went stock when I was about 5'10", and went straight onto an 1100 wb stock that I kept for nearly a year. I like long bikes though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muel Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 That's the age thing not the height thing that's the problem there though Ed. Nah I jokes, I can't ride for shit and I've got no excuse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigjames Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 I'm only 5'8"ish and my short control which on paper is 1065 is spot on for me. If its good value for money and good condition then go for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikeperson45 Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 i HAVE THE 1065 levelboss and I think it's perfect for me. I'm about 6ft, so i don't think it will be too long, when I started out on it I was about 5'8" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
