What sort of riding do you do/want to do? Hmm, bunny hopping on rear wheel, jumping obstacles in the street, good use of balance and stuff... A urban trial How tall are you/what is your build? I'm like 1,75cm +-, around 75~80kg what bikes have you ridden before? My first bike was a simple 24", then I got an BMX, and then a cheap full susp 26", wich I broke the frame 2 times bunny hopping If you are going to get a frame built then you might as well do something custom and designed to suit you rather than just copying something. Perfect, but it's more risky too... Copying an existing project is complex enough o.O 4130 (chromium-molybdenum steel) Yes, I've talked to my friend today and he said he haves this, and also aeronautical aluminium.. I asked him to search deeper about this, to get a good notion of weight, resistance and costs, he'll answer me tomorrow I was thinking on doing it in carbon steel, good option? I heard the alluminium is too hard to temper correctly, and the welds can be brittle... Anyone knows about this?

I'm an aircraft maintenance technician, there's some friends of mine who works at a small aircraft fabric, they use aeronautical aluminium there, light and resistant... And I know really good aeronautical welders who said that they can do the bike if I bring in the project... Unfortunately, if I bring in TartyBikes stuff, I'll pay like 98% of taxes lol... No way =/ Thanks for the tips, I was thinking on base my project on Echo Pure 2010, you guys recommend? If so, is there a project made of this frame? I need to know everything about it to make a good frame

My name is Lucas, I'm 18 years old, I'm brazilian, I still don't practice trials, I've tried it with my MTB but broke it's frame in 2 days, now I intend to start a project to build a 26" frame, 'cause trials stuff are really hard to find here... If someone wants to help me with my project, visit: See you

I'm Brazilian and I would really like to start practicing trials, but here it's almost impossible to find trials stuff So I'm thinking on doing my own frame, and use MTB bike parts in the rest... I would like to know some things in order to start this project: - What is the most recommended material? Light, resistant and ideally cheap. - What is the most recommended shape for the frame? Tube, and there's another one like this: (), dtk the name - Any recommended project that I can base mine? - Any other information that could help me in the proccess? Tips, previous projects, photos, materials, stuff Thanks a lot guys, I hope to help spreading trials troughout the world, if I succeed in doing the frame I hope to soon post videos here :D
