justin89 Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 So after a few rides on my bike built of spares ( http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/topic/177921-starting-again/ ) I decided I needed a proper trials bike so started looking on here/eBay. I came across a MAD Phase 1.1 which needed brakes, a chain and some grips to complete, and also came with the bonus of some Burns with a Tensile bash guard, Truvativ ISIS BB, Echo flat bars and a brand new set of Kenda Kinetics tyres, so messaged the guy asking if he had a buy it now price.. he told me to make an offer, so I did and he took it! Guess how much........ £60! It arrived Tuesday and I built it up.. just need a front brake to finish it off Anyone got a front Maggy they want to get rid of??

Revolver Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 Flat bars are grim, riser bars should be your next purchase after the front brake. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake. Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 And a chain maybe? good price but horrible frame forks and bars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 I agree bout the bars, get some risers on there but other than that I think Phase's are great bikes. Especially when you got it for £60! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justin89 Posted November 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 And a chain maybe? good price but horrible frame forks and bars. Already got a chain.. just not fitted in the pics lol Flat bars are grim, riser bars should be your next purchase after the front brake. I agree bout the bars, get some risers on there but other than that I think Phase's are great bikes. Especially when you got it for £60! I have got some raiser bars, but they wont fit with that stem and the other stem I have is no good. Exactly.. the price was right! And compared to what I had it's a million times better.. I'm only just starting out again as well so not ready to spend big bucks yet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justin89 Posted November 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2012 Right the bike is finished.. for now What do you think? Swapped my old BMX for a Onza Mod today with some tasty parts on it.. one of which is a nearly new Magura Louise front disc brake. Had to put my old front wheel on so I could run the Louise but its all good and rideable now so I can get out and have some fun! Will be after a decent disc hub front wheel at some point, but will have to wait till I have money again first! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
