Forgive me if my word is too harsh, apologize. Perhaps I should tell you first Inspired is what I am aiming at. I had about 10 min on it and love it. Definitely will buy an element 24 or 26 next summer.

I think I got the idea. thanks

Exactly the advice I am looking for!!! Thanks again. Do you think low end disc brake will work? or I should go for V-brake? Pink may not suit me very well, how do you think a 16 inch or even a 14 inch frame?

My bad estimation. It should be more, because I have to run all the way to get there on time. Not to be rude, but do you really think I would post this thread if there is any way for me to get an Inspired? can we get back to the topic please? thanks I really don't think there are any place sell second hand trial bike around. And I'm not very comfortable with purchasing second hand stuff online either. But thanks for your suggestion!!!

I live in US and my budget is $500, just enough for a specialized hardrock. But I will get a job and earn some money so I can buy a good bike like inspired next year

I would like to have an Inspired but my budget is very limited at this moment. It seems I can only afford an entry level MTB right now (or maybe a rubbish trial bike, but I don't want that). As I said above, I won't ride long distance, I simply need to get to another class that's about 1km away in less than 10 min. Any bike can do that.

Hi everyone! I have loved trial bike for long and can do some simple stuff like track standing and bunnyhop (but that's all). I think I would get a proper trial bike next year but I have to buy a MTB for commuter use in college now. Since I am not going to spend a long time everyday with my new MTB, I decided to choose one that can enable me to do some basic training so I will go straight in proper trial bike stuff next year. So, what should I pay attention to when choosing my MTB? ( like, maybe a short chainstay? V-brake? long handlebar?) Thanks in advance
