That lever looks rather amazing, if its cheap enough go for it, its not to heavy either.

It was -6 this evening no one was riding and my jumpers forks where sluggish .

+1 not heard much good to be honest.

+1 Welcome to the forum, you'll be of that BMX and onto a trials bike in no time.

I think thats because its a kids bike. Although if your careful you could get away with it. It can easily take the strain just might not be comfortable.

Sorry think i came across mardy there, my bad. Its something i've wanted to try for a while, i've seen someone's NS and i like the look of it. Seems different and its a cheaper option for me at the moment. Having just traded a monty for this i don't want to start buying and selling again right now. It's still in the ifs and buts stage, thanks for idea sorry for being snappy .

I never thought i'd say it about a phase. But thats my personal favarouite forum stock for now . the white just looks great with the red no mater how cheap the red is.

I spy avid elixir , how do they perform for trials? I'm an idiot ignore me.

I am quite aware of that from the 6 bikes or so i've bought of here including the 24seven. I wanted to try make something along the lines of an inspired but that i can convert back for the on off jumping i do. Plus the geo is reasonably similar and i like to be different .

The raid XR is a kids bike as it says, "for budding future martyn ashtons" The raid 08 is the adult version and has a sus fork thats all i know sorry.

New bars, tyres, headset, brake, grips since you had it. I love it.

They never sold the ones i have seperatley anyway, they still sell the complete wheels. And I don't have the money for the "tool for the job" Ryan leech it being? Thanks.

Thats what i was thinking, identiti make a rigid fork to replace 80mm travel forks i may concider it. Thanks. keep the help coming.

right i have a 24seven slacker ss. I had an idea of converting it into a street trials bike. Rigid forks, longer stem you get the idea. The bike currently weighs 16kg its not that bad for a steel framed jump bike. current spec. Marzochhi dj3's Front and rear 36h 24seven rims with fluro orange sealed 24seven hubs new dmr wingbars charge saddle 24seven bmx style stem maxxis holy roller tyres rear avid juicy 3. 24seven bmx style 3 piece cranks with 24seven y frame pedals. i have a vague idea what spec i'd have it if i did go through with the conversions. Echo controls, or urbans (stock) trialtech 24" black drilled (or not) with some deng hubs probably, unless i can get some pro 2's A longer stem possiably hope. bars maybe staying the same temporarily because i like the rise. tyres would stay and again some isis cranks, deng or trialtech. The frame geo (i can find) is: top tube. 21.75" chainstay. 15 1/2" head angle. 72 degrees. BB. 12" My questions are. Would the rigid forks seriously kill the rideability? Would this be a reasonably good idea? should i be looking at running a rear V, if so what arms/ pads? Any photoshop ideas would be great. Any other information you can give me is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Davey. x

I'd acctually just changed it when i came on here, it made me giggle.

Ask stu XD

Are neither of you observant .

Yes very very nice, but i agree those hubs are shocking for DH probably same for the rims to be honest. Mavic deemax all the way (if your rich) i love it looks so clean (not for long i hope?)

seriously old school. Wizard. gnarly, jesus i feel older than i am. Ha ha, And epic will never die NEVER you hear me mr meatball man??? lol .

Almost new ones don't sell for much more, there just not desirable. It'll get you into the world of trials but you'll want to upgrade quite quickly. Davey.

Ha ha well suppose its one route to take, Deffinatley not the strongest of frames and if your learning your begginer mistakes will kill it very quickly. Davey.

More than i've seen but none supply anything even remotley trials, appart from maybe evans who will rip your arm off.

How? front end is low enough as it is lol. Well personal prefference. Davey.

The street bike is an NS bikes something, don't know model but i love them.
