actiondan Posted November 4, 2011 Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 Ok so, getting a little old and past when it comes to trials I felt like having some fun and reliving my twenties so I bought a project.......... It started out like this: I had to fix this: And it now looks like this: Thanks to trialsguru for the frame, hope this doesnt make you wish you had kept it! I need to change the seat but apart from that its pretty much spot on! Hope you like it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always loved Doublewalls!! Adam Cheers dude! It has actually got the new doublewalls on it! they are 726mm wide / 2" rise, but your right it could do with a higher stem. it would feel much better.

Luke Rainbird Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 Looking good dude! Shorter/higher stem and a nice pivotal seat or similar will finish it off nicely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Vandart Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 This looks so much nicer than a modern 'proper trials' bike 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackMeek Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 Great job on the Pashley. I have got one recently in fairly good condition that needs some tlc and new stem and bar setup. If i can get mine to half as good as this one i will be pleased. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skoze Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 Get that front end up and it'll be a total winner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

actiondan Posted November 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2011 Cheers for the comments guys! Seat and stem are the priorities, its pretty low at the front but apart from that it rides great, now I just need to find some time to actually ride it!

actiondan Posted November 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 looking swish good job i am not loving those tyres like i've got a set of kujo's that would finish this of nicely How much mate? And whats the tread like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted November 8, 2011 Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 I think that current seat would be fine on it if it was a little further back and maybe tilted back a bit. Seems quite 'perched' forwards, almost. Other than that though, looks awesome It's almost a new school old school bike, if that makes any sort of sense.

old'scoolfool Posted November 8, 2011 Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 How much mate? And whats the tread like? really good amount of tread left mate typical i just sold on ebay last night with 2 maxxis dh tubes for £38 with postage but i haven't been paid yet so if he doesn't pay i'll let you know, would have liked them to go on this bike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old school frame new school build. I've always lusted after a 26mhz for the last 10 years and seeing this dont make it any easier! I still think its the best looking trials frame ever produced.
