Mr Marin Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 so i want to get a trials bike/bmx/ street bike ride and this looked awesome. i am new to trials so is it difficult to ride this bike if you're a beginner? cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revolver Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 It's good if you want to ride bmx street trials, but then you do want a trials bmx street bike, going on your OP. Its gear is hard and its bars are narrow, which make it less trials-suitable, but you can fix that with other parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikeperson45 Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 From what I've heard the Onza Zoot is better overall especially comparing prices. You won't have to bother changing gearing or bars either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
multi tasking male Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 i have got a effect and its the fist trials bike i have had and to be honet it was good walst i was learning but now im getting beter and doing bigge things its not so good. i wold go for the onza zoot, alot cheaper, better spec and the front brake on the ashton is prety shocking to be honest and the bars are very narrow and the gearing is all wrong but it dosnt take much to replace these parts, oh and the wheels on the ashton are crap, i did a little hop 180 onto a bank and didnt quit twist enough and the wheel buckled i would deffinately choose a zoot over a ashton or maybe a second hand inspired or something like that. chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Marin Posted June 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 i have checked out the onza zoot and i am liking it. so would this bike be a good bet for a trials beginner then? where would you reccomend me getting one as tartybikes is quite expensive but i can get it from winstanleys for £450. cheers for all the help guys.

multi tasking male Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 well tartybikes does set the bike up for you, but if your prety exsperianced with setting up bikesthen gt from somewhere where its a cheap as possible. chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
