eskimo Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 Budget normally goes along way. A preferred wheel size? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiderRace Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 Nick, First off, I'd give the 'ole search button a try. Most definitely you're not the only one to have asked this question before. Coming from a very similar background as you, I just bought my first trials bike a few weeks ago, an echo pure (stock, 26") and love it. From what I read, any trials bike is going to be a funky ride (as my Pure has), so nothing will have you progressing any faster than just biting the bullet, buying one, and getting out and riding it!

Ty hi I am looking for a bike at the mo, that was one of the reasons for joining this site, but i am not validated yet, and it seems like i can't answer any of the for sale adds until i am, but i have had a look at a 09 onza master.........would this be a good starting point?
