    • I am looking forward to the new slave cylinders being avaiable. Wondering if they are close or the same as the ones Racing line brought out. 
    • Some updated products would be good to see.  The rims were super popular so would be nice to see those available again. 
    • It seems the Inspired Hex street trials bike has something like 73 cm effective stack (bottom bracket to hand position), and 48 cm effective reach. You could ask the shop to verify these numbers if you choose to buy a new stem + handlebar. And 26 street trials bikes got a 22:18 gear ratio. You want one finger on the brake levers. First goals are trackstand, balancing by moving the front and rear wheel, then learning how to pull the front wheel up smoothly (no head shake), which will open up manuals, pedal ups and bunny hops. You can try back hops, endo 180, 180 while learning that. These should cover the first few years.
    • Haha, I bet that would build up ok with the right parts on.  Looks like it would get you down the beach ok!
    • I picked up this frame years ago and just built it up. It’s stamped with SPEEDRACE but doesn’t have a model name. Based on my last post it’s pre-2010’s.  It didn’t come with a fork so I’m not sure what is correct for it. This fork is from a Velo Orange Piolet bikepacking frame, 400 ATC and 52 rake. I have a fork from a polo bike that has 380 ATC and ~35 rake, would that be better?  Set up with just what I had around in the parts bin. Mtb flat bar was too low, BMX bar is too high. Any suggestions? Never ridden a trials bike before.  Gearing is 28t chainring and 22t+18t rear, BB7 brakes, Holy Roller 2.4 tires.
