MikeCottTrials Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 If im looking at the right one (white stock looks like a bt) then yes , but if its your first trials bike it will feel extremely wierd going straight to that from say an xc style bike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cvtrial Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 I think that's a good frame (if it's a BT) Haven't tried it yet, but hopefully I will sometime! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spunkey_monkey_boy Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 to be honest i'd steer clear of anything like that. as a begginer you dont need the geometry that an experienced rider does, you'd be better off buying a more normal feeling bike and learning all the techniques on that then when your good transfering to a more advanced frame.there are alot of not very good riders on top end bikes and they dont progress very quickly because the top end bikes are harder to get used to.i've been riding for 11 years and i've just gone back from a long control to a shorter monty because i was having trouble handling the length of the bike.dont follow fasion and buy something that looks great, go buy yourself something shorter and more normal and learn to ride first...

onzatprodude Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 hes right i think if your spending £110 on a bt 4 is an ok deal but the frames are really old i think you should just keep looking around and you bound to find a nice short bike its up to you thoughcheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
