iatola says Posted July 6, 2005 Report Share Posted July 6, 2005 Ive ridden a couple briefly when we had them in at work. They seem real nice for the money. When we had them in they came with the wider tire on the front and thinner on the back. Watch out for that and swap the round if you need to. A little weighty for a twenty inch but at 250 whos complaining Trev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

new_to_trials Posted July 6, 2005 Report Share Posted July 6, 2005 Hey, For 250.00 and if your going to do trials all the time you could get a 2nd hand one for that price which well be a lot better and more nicer to ride. thank sam :- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floyd Posted July 6, 2005 Report Share Posted July 6, 2005 It seems to be a pretty hot bike from what ive heard from other people. Go for it mate! :- Chears Floyd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomass666 Posted July 6, 2005 Report Share Posted July 6, 2005 Hey I've been riding one for about 2 months now and it's a great bike in my opinion. Theres somethings a bit dodgy but definitely nothing to put you off buying it. Just remember to put a screw in the seat/seat post or the cheap seat will just fall off after a wee while. Reply to this sometime once you've been riding it for a while, i'd like to know how you're getting on with it cheers, tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan6061 Posted July 6, 2005 Report Share Posted July 6, 2005 but at 250 whos complaining ← I got my 2003 Onza T-Bird for £170...in a sale though..£100 off..'cos the 04's came out. I know the 03 T-Bird isnt the best of bikes..but I didnt know anything about trials. I'm sure you could get a better mod for £250.. but IN MY OPINION That saracen doesnt look good and has a crap spec. even for a first one. It will only hold you back!
