Hi Just wondered if I could ask a bit of advice ....... I used to do motorcycle trials and I've always been into freestyle BMX albeit many years ago. I'm looking to get into trials (street) with my son and was wondering the best way into it. I've been looking at second hand Inspired (Element / Fourplay etc) and a Zoot Mini for my son. Wondered if you had any advice on what to look for / avoid etc, any help would be much appreciated. Rich

Hi Just looking to get into trials, I used to do motorcycle trials and in the last few years I've got back into the old school bmx scene. I love building and sourcing the parts and to be honest use the bikes all the time, they're not museum pieces to me so they should be ridden.The problem is that they are 25+ years old and things have obviously moved on (brakes for one!! - MX1000's although expensive to buy nowadays just don't work very well - apologies for thouse aged under 35 reading this who don't remember MX1000's ) so i'd like to also ride a modern bike. I'm looking at buying a secondhand Inspired, not too fussed as to the model as any of them will more than enough for me to start with ..... Just wondered if anyone could offer some advice? Many thanks Rich
