rider Posted May 27, 2006 Report Share Posted May 27, 2006 Hi everyone. I'm just getting back into trials and I just thought that this might be an interesting thing to ask.So....Give 5 reasons that you think makes trials, be it Mod, 24", or stock is better than any other type of riding?Mine would be:1. Can ride on almost anythink2. Pedal hops are fun?!3. Brakes stop when you want them too.4. Your less likely to impale yourself (like on Bmx's :$ )5. Don't have to rush everythink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onza t-pro rider Posted May 27, 2006 Report Share Posted May 27, 2006 Mine would be:1. A lot lighter than bmx's.2. Easier to maneuver.3. A lot more street for trials compared to bmx and skateboarding as if there a wall you can ride it providing it's not to high for your ability.4. Better atmosphere.5. A lower population of trial's riders mean you get to no more people better.ThanksMatt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krisboats Posted May 28, 2006 Report Share Posted May 28, 2006 i like 26" wheels... rules out bmxingWhen you ride a line then look back at it and can't for the life of you think how it'd be possible to ride a bike along something like that, the feeling is just immenseI like just plain enjoy trials ridingI like the challenge it usually presentsI love to ride past pedestrians really fast and feather my honky rear brake to make them s**t themselves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krisboats Posted May 29, 2006 Report Share Posted May 29, 2006 3.better stunts (because there no skill in riding off a massive cliff any dirt jumpers/down hillers its just guts)Well actually dirt jumping is a very technical form of riding, i don't mean any random jumping the lumps kind of riding i mean busting out 360's and one handed crankflip can-cans and things to that effect. Downhill also takes a lot of skill so what your saying is wrong. You mean freeriding, all that is is launching yourself off the biggest drop over the largest gap as fast as you possibly can.
