MrBox Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 Hi guys, I used to ride trials a couple of years ago but as GCSEs came up I didnt ride the bike so decided to sell up. Now just in final year of college, got a job and abit of money in my pocket iv decided to come back and have another crack at it Dont really know what bike to look for now...im quite short so definitly a 20" wanted and got about £450 at a push to spend. Would be good to know what kinda bikes to look at and where to look Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieran Morrison Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 (edited) Hey mate, deffinitly dont buy a bike just yet.. wait until your validated, with £450 to spend you could easily get a top spec 20" bike. Don't know if you know this, but 20" is also called a 'mod'. Just keep doing posts like that, good spelling, good questions/useful answers and you will be validated very quick. Just dont ask to be validated. Good luck, deffinitly get a bike of here if you have that money. Hope i helped Kieran Edited October 3, 2010 by Kieran Morrison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skoze Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 Hey man, if you've got the cash there's no point holding fire on buying a bike for the sake of you being in a different part of the forum as said above When did you stop riding and what did you have before? Look second hand, you'll get a sweet rig for £450 - just be sure you know exactly what your getting! Check the condition thoroughly, dont want to go spending that much to then break something. Also, search the forum about the parts that are on it and any problems they could develop before you buy if you've not been paying any attention tot he trials scene these past few years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
