Revolver Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 if you watch the vids on the forum, it seems mods outnumber stocks. Since they're smaller, they are easier to learn tricks on.i for one ride a mod, but I know i'll be going to 24" once i'm at a comfortable level Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Z o o !! Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 IF your just starting trials then a 20 defenately because it will be so much easier to learn stuff with it being lighter and all that, but having said that ive been riding my zoo for a year and got on a levelboss dual disc today and loved it, i couldnt stay off the thing its so different if i had it my way and had enough money i would have both Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AshleyB Posted March 2, 2008 Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 I think its more down to age of the rider and also size, most older riders that i see are on 26" bikes, i am not saying all, And most 20" riders tend to be younger as its down to size and its more easy to start on the smaller bike.AshB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apu Posted March 5, 2008 Report Share Posted March 5, 2008 I started out on a 12.5" kids bike, fully steel and everything. That got me started real well until the spokes got loose and punctured the rim tape and tires. DARN 16 SPOKE WHEELS!!! the bike had pushed forward bars and was rather comfortable. My reason for using it as a trials bike was because my mate broke the seat rail clamp which gave me the idea to cut the seat post tube down to top tube height.I plan to move up a size, all the way to 16" with a whopping 28 spokes. wheels will be replaced with light weight (and stronger) aluminium rims. small rims = stiffer wheel. I'll also use high flanged hubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 I can't beleive i'm actually reading another one of these polls, you don't even need to use the searh, there is so many of them, theres almost always one on the 1st page of topics.And if you just think for a minuite, why would one be "better" than the other?if you wanna know which people ride, then ask "what size bike do you ride?" not "Which is better?"
