Punker Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 Hey everyone, I'm just getting back into trials after a couple of years because I have been travelling so as you can imagine funds are low! This is a bit wordy but the effort in reading it is apriciated! I'm building a bike up now so I'm after a bit of advice on setup to make sure I don't make it ride like a dog! I have dug out most of a Stock bike and have just picked up an Ashton Justice because it seems short and hasn't got a crazy bb rise (it's red, that's all I have to figure out the age!) So the only things I have left to buy are forks, Stem and bars. Before I went away I was riding a 24 Bicycles Moon for street with an 80mm fork and loved it so I am trying to keep the justice as whippy and streety as possible without ruining the Trials feel so was going to buy a 90mm 15 deg stem and some DH style risers, maybe 2.5 inch rise and some straight forks to keep it short. Will these changes just ruin the feel? I was hoping to end up with something I can ride trials on and pull the odd wall ride or spin etc but I'm worried that I'll end up with a trials bike with the wrong front end that is useless for both. It's a bit of a ramble but hopefully you guys can sort me out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
