Bobo_Grimmer Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 (edited) Hello everyone, I'd really like to get back into trials riding after 8 years out. I work hard and play in a band, for a bit extra cash in me pocket, so i want to get back riding again for the fresh air and thrill of riding trials. The passion for the sport has never left me and although i was advised not to, i will ride again. Ok maybe not as hard or as big as i used to but Bugger it i need to ride! I'm saving a bit of cash at the moment and would like to get some kind of 20" mod bike. I'd like to spend around £350 to £400 if that's do-able? I live down south in Dorset and i'm finding it hard to find anything or anyone selling. I have recently found this on ebay this echo 20"Trials has come along way in the last 8 years and i feel a bit behind the times. Is this something i should go for? Thank you, ShawnEdit: Sorry the link didn't work but it's ok now. Edited July 15, 2009 by Bobo_Grimmer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
