Trials Bikes Gallery - Vintage To Current Models


TrashZen

Recommended Posts

Hey,

Was just looking at all these pimp bikes posted here, and thinking it would be cool to host a bike gallery, sorted by year of production.

I don't know if that's been done, but it would give a raw picture of how geometry has evolved from the early 80´s to the 2000, and 2010.

I'd like to set this up somewhere on TrashZen, like the gallery of geometry evolution... :turned: Visitors could browse bike models in any given year. :rolleyes:

Anyone who wants to participate can send me good resolution pictures at gallery@trashzen.com (one shot of your current or past bikes seen in profile on a fairly clear background).

For each picture, make sure to specify the model name and the year of production (and your trialsforum nickname if you want). The picture has to be good, and obviously, I'll have to limit each bike model to one per year of production, otherwise I'll end up with tens of zoos etc...

I am curious to see how far this could go back in time. ^_^^_^

What da you think?

Thanks for your suggestions (Y)

I think this will take some time, but I'll organize this as a blog, with tags by make, year, wheel size etc... and maybe I'll try to add some specs to the bike pics...

With a tag cloud, I could consider several pictures and flavours per bike model and it'll be easier to browse and search any specific bike....

But first, send me your best pics with specs (600 pixels wide minimum if you can, I don't want to pinch low-res pics randomly from the web), I'll put them aside until I have a decent platform to showcase them.

hey, had this picture of an old trials bike for a while, aparently it is called "bicinachodorada"

bicinachodorada.jpg

would you put this up ?

I'd definitely consider this type of input (do you have a higher res version you can send me?)

Definitely the type of input I need, though with a year on it?, and a better res picture if you have that?

Tadaaaa!!!!! Here it is!!!!

The Gallery of Bike Trials Evolution up and running... :turned: ,

so feel free to update it with your oldest steeds as well as your latest and pimpest bikes!

I reckon this will get more interesting with time (as you'll be able to search for more bikes)

I have also included a section for broken parts which I think could be enlightning :D and a place to feature your best riding zones.

Functionality wise, its fairly basic, but I see it as an archive for biketrials bits.

Let me what you think, I may be able to improve it a bit, got struggling with some of the plug-ins. :ermm:

E-mail has been sent with the file attached :) thers a short spec, and my name. (Y) cant wait to see it all up and running.

I just re-arranged some listings on the Gallery of Biketrials Evolution, that I think could be useful (clubs, manufacturers, demo teams, shops), all by country... If you want to add your club/team/shop, just send me the URL.

Also, keep your vintage pics coming (and also your new bikes if you want to add to this archive project, they'll be old before you realize it :turned: )
