  1. I can confirm my Czar has a disc mount on the frame As for the bikes geometry not having numbers to go by just feel I would say it is closer akin to a Mtn Bike than BMX. The long wheelbase and toptube make it steady and trackable where a BMX would be more flickable. If I could build a custom frame I might shorten this one by a few inches. I feel a lot more weight to the front of the bike than on a BMX. One thing that feels more like BMX to me is the BB height in relation to the hubs. I'm still learning to ride it and want to get a true feel for it before I start mucking around with changing parts
  2. my voice shouldn't count for much as I am not truly a trials guy. I just bought a Czar 24" and am trying to learn to ride it. I really only want it for street riding and to learn some trials techniques. I can say that it is a very good quality bicycle designed by some very cool and intelligent trials guys. I have had the great pleasure to become acquainted with them recently. Anyways, the point I wanted to make is that in this niche as with any others it all comes down to personal taste and what is important to you. back in the day I rode freestyle. I usually rode whatever I could get the best deal on or sometimes I sought out a certain bike. Then I began to work in the industry. First I worked at a shop and I bought what we sold and eventually worked for a manufacturer and rode what I got from them. I think it has come to a point in the trials industry that many of the bikes are similar with the 24" being the big change and new style yet these bikes are similar to each other as well. Your bike is your bike and will be a reflection of you. You'll replace parts or build up a frame to your specs, etc. Until there are major differences in the designs you just gotta go with what makes you happy. Honestly I'm looking forward to the next big thing when these bikes are built more for street and less for pure trials. Probably in the next couple years as trials gains popularity and people witness the street aspect that niche will grow. sorry for my long winded post Chris
  3. Hello, my name is Chris. I am very new to trials and I ride a Czar 24". I've always loved riding and got into freestyle as a kid. I bought this bike to have some fun and get some exercise. I ride in Shenzhen China where I live but I am from California originally. My other hobbies are; writing, music, thai boxing, mma, and other combat sports/martial arts
  4. I just got this bike today. I don't plan on really being a trials rider. I just wanted a street bike and I grew up riding BMX. This bike is so light I'm loving it! Just need to get used to the geometry and learn how to ride it. Hopefully I can learn to ride it well.
