I_RIDE_ECHO! Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 ive kinda just started trials and bought a shogun gimp last year i was wondering if it is any good to start off with or to sell it and get a brand new bike?Personal preferences really. My mate had one to start on and he struggled, i had a go on it and even i struggled! They seem in a really high gear and they are quite heavy! Im not saying get a new bike im just sayin theyre not the easiest bikes to start on, hope i haven't put you of mate. You probably will prove me wrong and turn out better than me! Hope it works out for you mate.CHIGS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon_Rider Posted February 2, 2008 Report Share Posted February 2, 2008 My mate had one of those as his first bike and he loved it to pieces he got on so well with that bike and it really helped him progress. i tryed that bike but personaly i thought it was crappy.so really you might like it just everyone has different preferences.i would probably look around for a different bike but up to you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
