1337 Trials Posted April 4, 2007 Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 (edited) Team Saracen MAD Trials bike (with gears) Any good? And how much hassle are gears? Yes, they are annoying. My mate had a DDG and when he sidehoped and slipped he smashed his gear arm. ~Matty Edited April 4, 2007 by Matt-y Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan Blackwell Posted April 4, 2007 Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 My mate has this bike i would highly recomend getting a new rear wheel because hes only been ridding it around doing abit of trials and all the engagment points went in the space of a day lol.So watch out for that.Cheers.
