emiliasen0612 Posted 11 hours ago Report Share Posted 11 hours ago Hi everyone, I’m new to bike trials and excited to dive into this amazing sport. I’ve been following the community here for a while, and I can’t think of a better place to ask for guidance. I recently got myself a second-hand trials bike (24-inch wheels), and I’m looking to get some advice to ensure I’m on the right track. First, I’d appreciate any tips on bike setup for a beginner. I’ve read a lot about tire pressure, brake adjustments, and handlebar positioning, but I’m unsure how to fine-tune these for someone just starting. Is there a specific setup that might help make learning basic techniques easier? Speaking of techniques, I’m currently working on my balance and track stands. Are there any drills or routines you’d recommend for improving stability and control? I’ve also been trying small bunny hops, but I’m struggling with consistency. Any pointers for nailing the timing or positioning would be amazing! Lastly, I’m wondering about protective gear. Right now, I’ve got a helmet and gloves, but is there anything else I should consider investing in to stay safe? I also checked this: If there are any local meetups, beginner-friendly power apps training tutorials, or specific threads here that I should check out, please point me in the right direction. I’m eager to learn and become a part of this incredible community. Thanks in advance for your advice and support! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
