Pashley26 Posted May 4, 2007 Report Share Posted May 4, 2007 Hey, at the moment i ride a pashley 26mhz, i'm looking at getting a 20" bike to get my trials skills up a bit ? can anyone recomend a good bike to go for ? i'll have about 500 quid to spend. i want something thats going to last. I love my pashley so there never going to be anything to replace that but i keep hitting my knees on the bars ! I'll try and get some pics of the pashley for you'. it's not got a back wheel at the moment but i'm using the wheel off my mums bike and hopping about in the back garden with no chain lol.

shogun_gimp Posted May 5, 2007 Report Share Posted May 5, 2007 (edited) Hi, i would go for something like the Onza T-Pro 05 model. It depends really, if you want a new or a second hand bike. Here is a Onza T-pro i found This one is a 2007 modelhttp://www.blazingsaddles.co.uk/products.p...lid=m1b13s3p255 Or there is this one with a bit better stuffAnd this one is 2005/6 modelhttp://www.airevalleycycles.com/products.p...lid=m1b13s3p259See if you like it.

BenLeacock™ Posted May 6, 2007 Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 Humm maybe you should try a monty 221 nice looking bike. T-pros however are the best bike for beginners by far Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T-pros however are the best bike for beginners by far Ben Hmmm well its sounds to me that you need a longish framed mod if you keep hitting your knees on your pashley, a monty would be very short, onzas okay but your probably better of trying to get something like a zoo! python, adamant mod or koxx levelboss mod 2nd hand. If you can, grab a go on 1 of these types of bikes and you'll see how much better and worthwhile they are . Ben G WST Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowman12 Posted May 6, 2007 Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 ive just done the swap from an old school giant trials team to a new style T-Mag. its a nice bike to ride. people tell me they use the same sort of geo as a 26" bike but im not sure which one!! if you get a chance to, test ride one. i love mine and its all standard except ZOO! pads as standard maggie reds are GASH!!

Pashley26 Posted May 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 Thanks guys ! yeah i'll probably want to get a long-ish bike cos i'm prety tall (6'2) i'll have a look around though, would a t pro be alright for knee clearance ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(chief) Posted May 10, 2007 Report Share Posted May 10, 2007 (edited) I wouldn't get a 24" in my opinion. Zoos ride nice but each one rides different depends on what parts you have. If there a good spec they ride nice my mate has a zoo 05 thats what you should look for or the 07 there just as nice but more money.chris Edited May 10, 2007 by (chief) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
