chrishayton Posted October 11, 2006 Report Share Posted October 11, 2006 Your best off running rigid forks though. suspension ruins the whole feel off a trials bike. id say get a real trials bike as you have a pretty awesome street bike. get something shortish though ( around 1060 wb so its long enough to feel nice for trials moves) like an old echo pure or a levelboss. how much you wanting to spend, second hand maybe your best bet.

CurtisRider Posted October 12, 2006 Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 i ran 100mm judys on my base when my curtis forks snapped (shite forks btw), and it was ace, proper fun machine to ride, i learnt gaps to front wheel using them, and used the sus to my advantage when doing those wheelswap things they are pretty cheap secondhand, krisboats is selling one infact or new they are only 170quid (or were when i last bought one) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrishayton Posted October 12, 2006 Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 i might have a t-raptor if thats what your looking forthis topic will get closed again if people start offering things. 'joosh's email address is in his profile so email him. T rapters are notoriously weak though so not really ideal for tech stree/ trials. a base ta 26 might be pretty good though.
