You need to learn to operate the search first of all, or just look down the list of topics, this topic is posted about fifty times a week.

Your choice of wheel size is purely dow to your own preference, you need to ride a MOD and Stock, and a 24 is you can. It is very important how big you are aswell, I am about 5"10 now, but I ride a long mod.

The legnth of your bike needs to be thought about, but this is purely down to preference, I like both short and log MODS, I ride long because I did prefer long, but short MODs are better for comp riding.

You need to decide whether you want to do comp riding or street.

If you don't know about any of this, get a T-Pro or similar. Try to get as much money together as possible, any bike lower down the price range than a T-Pro are a bit crap really. My mate had a T-Bird, it was horrid.

If you can afford it, get the new T-Mag when it comes out, there aren't as many around as T-Pros but they are much better bikes in my opinion, my mate has one, and I had a T-Pro at the same time, apart from the heavy weight forks his was far superior to mine.

Choose a wheel size, People over 6 foot are the only ones who look any good on stock really, but you need to be a big build aswell. The smaller build you are the smaller the bike.

If you want to know what bike I would get, definately a T-Mag, its worth saving up for and that is what my brother is doing.

ride a zoot, if you like it, get one. i liked the one i rode but for financial problems i couldn't get one, also there harder to pull up that a mod.

Well get used to it, learn to gt on with. You don't automatically get on with a more expensive bike. I'm 5"10 and 10.5 stone and hated my mates T-mag when I first got on it, but now I 've been riding for a few months I love it.

A couple of weeks?!? You have no nowledge of trials in a couple of weeks, if you feel the same after a couple of months then change.
