Krisboats Posted January 14, 2007 Report Share Posted January 14, 2007 well i guess i've spent about £400-500 on my bike upgrading various things and selling other bits off. I now have a usually reliable and decent spec bike trials bike and an okay dirt jump bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abacacus Posted January 14, 2007 Report Share Posted January 14, 2007 0 for me so far (in waiting for a bike) but my friend dump almost 6000 canadian dollars building this super bike, when we tested it he droped it off a building by mistake and nothing even bent, so its a good investment. built from a monty tti or something like that and everything is modiefied.

abtrials Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 far to much but its worth it in the end, i have just spent £60 bb7, £52 echo cranks, £20 bash, £20 sprocket, £21 tyre and resprayed frame which was about £15.but there is always something that needs replacing, and something you want to upgrade.

Revell-Bikes Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 lol you all saying its too much, actually its cheaper than most bike out there, not just trials bikes, other bikes can fetch a higher price e.g. 2 grand or above.my revell costed me £1,200- thats alright for a top grade bike with top grade parts.- bought it when it 1st released nearly two years back. was the 1st customer to buy one.really i usually spend £300 a week so whats wrong with that??Pat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andyb Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 Late reply to pat here but what can you do.I must have spent at least 1500 quid on my adamant, the reason i said thats too much is that i have a road bike too and although thats worth far more than the adamant you can understand why. You can see the technology more in a road bike and there is nothing on the planet that is nicer to ride than my road bike,I still however very rarely ride my road bike now and im on my trials bike all the time.But that 1500 quid could have bought a hell of a lot of other stuff, my point of too much was just wish that it was a bit cheaper thats all.Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
