  1. I am tempted by the Onza Zoot. And I might well do that, thanks
  2. Yeah, I was just interested 'cause I like that style, and was wondering exactly which bike I should buy. I can't afford an Inspired Fourplay unfortunately, any alternatives?
  3. I'm new to trials, sorry if it was a dumb question ^^ Thanks for your help
  4. Basically what is in the topic description: What bike does he use? Mod/stock? Details? As in, in this very video. I'll link: Thanks in advance
  5. Was the Onza T-Rex your first trials bike? Never heard of either coust or limey ^^ Good brands? I will do and thinking about a mod, 2nd hand so I don't have to worry about messing it up ^^ and fairly good, Onza Bird maybe or Onza Pro, not sure yet.
  6. Awesome, is it really good for trials? Nice one, what has got you interested in it again?
  7. Awesome! I haven't bought my first bike yet, but when I do, I'll give you a shout. How long you been trial biking? Is bunny works that little industrial bit just outside of Bunny? Just left after coming down from Bunny Hill?
  8. Awesome, I live in East Leake, other side of Loughborough to Mountsorrel I think. How often do you go riding? Do you only do trials? Will do Alex Would definitely want to give riding rocks a go. What sort of bike do you ride? It's amazing to hear that there are so many riders in this area, really awesome. I haven't even bought my first bike yet, so looking for people I can tag along with and learn from y'know? I'll add you as a friend if that is alright? Get in contact with you again when I get my bike.
  9. Thanks mate, seen that a lot so think I will be following that advice! What you're doing sounds awesome mate, seriously! I don't think I have the skills to build my own bike, maybe one day, but not yet ^^ Am very jealous that you can do that. And dude, that Echo is gorgeous! Why are you building one when you know you want to buy a different one later? Have read mixed responses about the height thing, but what about the fact that some people say it is easier to learn on a mod!? Onza Zoot? Never heard of that, will look into it though. Can you ride stocks longer distances? That's one thing I have read about mods, you can't like ride them to the next village really, not made for that at all. Yeah, I get what you mean, I think i'll go to shops, give different mods and stocks a go, then try and get one I like second hand on ebay. But we'll see Thanks for your help mate
  10. Hi guys, just interested to see how many riders there are in the Loughborough area of Leicestershire, or even Leicestershire as a whole or Nottinghamshire New to trials, so want to see if there is a large presence of Loughborough trials riders on here. Thanks Nick
  11. Okay, will do, thanks mate. Which bike do you have? Mod or stock? How long you been riding? The Onza Bird has a front disc brake but rear V brake, maybe I should consider that one as well. You got the 2010 one? How long you had it for? Where did you get it from?
  12. Okay, tried searching for 20" Da Bomb on TartyBikes but couldn't find it, what's the brand? And may I ask what you mean by pads? Are V Brakes really good enough, I just read on a trials info website that breaking is a major part of trials biking, so wouldn't it be best to get disc breaks straight away? I agree with the thought of not having to worry about scratching it though, which I undoubtedly would be if I bought a brand new Onza Pro.
  13. In the forum's opinion, is the Pro worth the extra money? I know it has two disc brakes not just one etc, and I love the baby blue paint job, but what about the technical side? I don't really understand that yet ^^
  14. But for starting out, do I need a higher spec one? Or should I get an Onza second hand and then learn on that, and if/when the time comes, upgrade?
