zoster Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 nice clean look! (i would change the saddle, but whatever) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mint_jay Posted May 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 Whats the gear ratio? Gea ratio is 18-12. Possibly looking to go up to 22 on the front though nice clean look! (i would change the saddle, but whatever) Cheers dude. The saddle is very almost, practically useless but weighs nothing Considering an inspired pivitol or a bmx saddle at the moment.

flatpro Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 (edited) a nice bike. but honestly these 24" bikes look like little mountainbikes for little children or something... I think I'd feel a bit uncomfortable riding this in public. no offence! Edited June 3, 2010 by flatpro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirt jumper jake Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 a nice bike. but honestly these 24" bikes look like little mountainbikes for little children or something... I think I'd feel a bit uncomfortable riding this in public. no offence! I wouldnt, for starters they have a seat which is by far more comftable then a conventional trials frame I actually cant wait to finish mine though so i can sit down when i please marinos/inspireds/because's etc actually remind me of small jump bikes. Back on topic, looks a nice bike mate, what tyres did you order? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mint_jay Posted June 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 (edited) a nice bike. but honestly these 24" bikes look like little mountainbikes for little children or something... I think I'd feel a bit uncomfortable riding this in public. no offence! Not taken... But mate, I get plenty of compliments when riding, definately not uncomfortable riding it in public. Not reeaally that bothered though man, I'm just out to enjoy myself! I wouldnt, for starters they have a seat which is by far more comftable then a conventional trials frame I actually cant wait to finish mine though so i can sit down when i please marinos/inspireds/because's etc actually remind me of small jump bikes. Back on topic, looks a nice bike mate, what tyres did you order? Yeaaa I see what you mean, compare them to small jump bikes... Only real difference is the forks. Got some DMR motos on the way, should be a nice medium. Plus the fact I'm getting them for a tenner each brand new! What's the setup on the 24" you're building up?? Looks good!! shame about the bars Haha cheers bud! You know the bars look good!! Thanks again man. Edited June 4, 2010 by mint_jay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hows the because? I was thinking that setup looks more suited to tgs. i dont have the because anymore, i got a 20inch now, check my pic thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 a nice bike. but honestly these 24" bikes look like little mountainbikes for little children or something... Look less like bikes for little children than BMXs though I definitely get less "That's a kids bike" grief on my 24 compared to my BMX.
