nb88 Posted May 3, 2011 Report Share Posted May 3, 2011 Just found some ooooooooooold photos and had to bump this post! My second ever trials bike, onza t-pro, complete with modified Zoo sticker, hahaha. Won the NASS 2004 beginner comp on this bad boy! 3rd bike, old monty x-lite, absolutely amazing but killed my back riding it Oldest pic I have of me riding! I've had...onza t-bird, onza t-pro, monty x-lite, zoo! python, echo control '04 (still going strong, i love it), and now inspired fourplay. Wow i'm getting old Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldskooltrials Posted May 4, 2011 Report Share Posted May 4, 2011 The oldest and only picture i have of me riding my 1999 Monty x-lite, I never took a picture of any of the bikes that came before this Note the Ashton inspired Cannondale top Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rathergoodpie Posted May 5, 2011 Report Share Posted May 5, 2011 May as well join the party! Ok so this is the full history, rather than just old pics but thought it might be interesting to look at. Giant from around 1999 Which then got custom sprayed 'cause I loved Martin Hawyes' one Which then got changed for an Echo Urban (which is still my favourite bike to this date Then got more into natural so ditched in favor of this BT 4 (avec custom graphics no less) Then got bored of natural so went back to a streety frame with this Ashton Then changed my mind AGAIN and went back to long and low with this Czar Got a little lighter with this Echo SL Then Flipped back to street and got myself a 24 (not that I'm indecisive or anything) It's a testament to Chris King Hubs that I'm still running the same rear as I was on my Giant 10 years ago! Apologies for the picture heavy thread... just enjoying reminiscing! Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD™ Posted May 5, 2011 Report Share Posted May 5, 2011 I'm pretty sure I remember salivating over your Urban when you got it - assuming you posted it up online... It wasn't long after I'd finished my ES4 that the Urbans came out, and this was definitely my favourite of them. Good to see your bike progression Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Endohopper Posted May 6, 2011 Report Share Posted May 6, 2011 Which then got changed for an Echo Urban (which is still my favourite bike to this date Oh my - That was you ! I remember thinking how beautiful that was when you posted it aeons ago , Christ do you have good taste in bikes ! Testimony to the longevity of Kings too that one has survived trials usage all these years intact . Now to whom did this : ...piece of awesomeness belong ?

Ali C Posted May 9, 2011 Report Share Posted May 9, 2011 This must be the most beautiful pair of forks i have ever seen!Anyone know what they are? They were Global titanium forks, the most flexy forks I have ever experienced! Gave them back to Global soon after the pic was taken.
