adamtrials Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 From what i have heard the ninja geo is really weird and doesnt feel very nice.Obviously this is subjective but meh... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali C Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 if your talking about the old A1 then I honestly couldn't vote, both aweful frames.BUT if it was life and death situation....the adamant would win the nija has possibly the wost geo ever made for a trials bike, the adamant isnt far behind. I would rather ride a jump bike for trials than either of those frames though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Garland Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 When I got my A1 at first I would have agreed with you all saying they ride crap, worse for gaps etc. However once you get used to it like anybike, you can start to find its stregths. Before I got used to it my mate could out gap me like a whore and I couldnt tap like I used to. Now doing 42" comfortably, gapping 7-9ft depending on the drop too or if its flat. Manuals is one thing Im finding hard still.I think both damon watson and ben travis proved high bb's do not mean inferior on gaps. It just takes getting used to, and as no where has any 06 adamants left I would assume you mean the 07 adamant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 Can't vote because I haven't ridden the Ninja. Got a A1 though, this is how I feel about it:Awful for gaps at first, when you get used to it, it's as good as any other frameGood-ish for taps, which means you will have no problems with tapping but will no doubt tap higher on a low bb frameVery easy to go to front wheel, if it's a pedal-up or gap to frontNot too good for wheelswaps, at least I find it much more difficult than on a PureDead easy hooks!!Dead easy sidehopsGreat rear wheel controlUseless for comps because there is so much ground clearance that you can't land on the rockringAll the obstacles seem lower (didn't believe it after reading something similar on tartybikes but now I do!)

Stan Shaw Posted November 11, 2006 Report Share Posted November 11, 2006 Both are pogo sticks especially the ninja, that is a bad frame. I reckon something with a lower bb around 20 to 40mm rise is decent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobinJI Posted November 12, 2006 Report Share Posted November 12, 2006 He's on about a second hand one. But yeah, get neither, find something better alround. If you must though it sounds like the adamants gunna be better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
