Scooter Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 The MAD bikes look totally different to the ones Saracen used to produce so I asked Giles at the show what the score was. The MAD team split from Saracen when Saracen ceased to trade at the beginning of this year. Saracen were the MAD team sponsers but Giles now has a new sponser, a company called 2x2 who also produce the Phase bikes. the MAD team and 2x2 have come up with the bikes and Giles said it is the first time they have had a big say so on how the bikes are specced and geometry and things.If the guys who ride them are having a big say in thier design now it must be a good thing and I thought they looked pretty well at the show.

If that is the one your on about, it has nothing to do to saracen.I think theres a thread in the main bike pics sub-forum about the new saracen bike.

Euro Braker Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 i HATE the look of that bike.. i dont think sara can pull of decent trials bikes anymore.. whats everyone elses views on this?I dont think Saracen trials would be anything without the MAD team. I reckon they will carry on producing them but there wont be a market so they would give up eventually(or steal someone elses design) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has DX32's, they are beasty rims, just what is required on a bike like this.The t-rex is hardly specced better than this, it's a pretty similar spec...
