TrialsBiker Posted August 3, 2010 Report Share Posted August 3, 2010 Hey, I think this is my first post here so as the title says, I'm building a new trials park soon! So i'm just looking for some suggestions, I will be using 2 large tyres 50" (Possibly 4?) 2-3 medium sized tyres 35" and 2 jeep tyres 30" (taller and wider than car tyres) and I also have access to lots of normal car tyres. Those heights were estimated. I have lots of other tires, but there is too much grip on them and are a pain in the ass to ride on. How should I arrange them? I'm thinking 1 Jeep tyre to Wooden platform to a large tyre then down to a medium (And do this twice?) For the wood - I have alot of pallets, and can get more very easily and for free, but I shall have plenty, and I'm thinking of putting them on stilts making some slanted, some flat etc. I need some more ideas for the wood, so any idea's would be kindly appreciated. But the thing is, I don't have a bike yet I'm looking at an Onza T-pro but I'll have to get it to Northern Ireland somehow... Any ideas on other bikes? (I'd say a 250 quid maximum) since i'm only starting. Sorry if that was too hard to read Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the reply, yeah I was thinking it could be pretty unstable, I think I might try your suggestion. As for the bike, I would buy a new one, But Its just waaaay out of my price range, especially since I'm just starting. Thanks for the help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
