i_wanna_trials Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 i have had enough of my bike cos its pissing me off with the rigid forks on it, and it does not feel right to me at all and was woundering if any one could help me i would be very grate full i will upload a pic of my bike so you can c what it is. well my main issue with it is when im riding all my weight is pushed forward and that means i can lift the front no matter how far back i lean and i was thinking of a new frame might solve it or stem n bars, i was just woundering what yu guys thought, and it is a stock dopnt ask why i ride a stock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigjames Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 Having had that frame, something with a 110-120 X 15 degree stem and some riser bars will have the bike riding just fine. How long have you been riding trials and how long have you had the bike for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigjames Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 saracen mad stem, same as a pazzaz 110x15* i think, viz riser bars, middleburns, think the rest was standard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
