o0jack0o Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 Hi, Been out fo trials for about a year (Mod) and now want to upgrade to a Stock bike. Been looking at this one for a while and i like the look of it =) http://www.ecrater.co.uk/p/11581528/bionic-b4r-26-trials-bike?keywords=trials+bikes What do you all think? Will replace the rear brake with a HS33 soon after getting. Also has anyone ever bought from eCrater before? How was it? Thanks Jack =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gee-Campbell Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 What do you all think? Will replace the rear brake with a HS33 soon after getting. Just thought i would mention its a v-brake mount frame. I dont know if you can get adaptors or anything to change to a 4-bolt mount for the hs33'3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F.N.G Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 No it isnt, it has Vee adapters on it to make it Vee but the mounts are 4 bolt so it will fit a magura Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Dark Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 Just thought i would mention its a v-brake mount frame. I dont know if you can get adaptors or anything to change to a 4-bolt mount for the hs33'3 No, it's not. It's a 4 bolt frame with adaptors for vee brakes. I would advise getting the zhi z3r ( same brand ) the b5r crack under the headtube and the b4rs look far too spindly. I've been riding the Zhi for 10 months and it seems pretty hard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
o0jack0o Posted January 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 Oh sweet - not sure i would have been able to trust Vee's thanksThanks Alex i'll take a look at it Jack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gee-Campbell Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 oops sorry I looked at the brake and presumed it was a different mount, i should look closer next time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bike_dummie Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 The frames are good for the price, but you will defiantly need to replace the freewheel as it is a death trap of an acs claw and maybe the tyres the rear v wont be that much of a problem.

o0jack0o Posted January 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 No worries Gee Ale do like the look of the Z3R but it's a little over my budget really as trying to save for uni ect.. Also where did you get you're bike from? Jack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ogre Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 if you under spend on the bike now it'll be costing you a fortune by the time you start uni, and you'll have better opportunity to ride at uni, i was breaking more stuff in my first year from abusing my bike more often, so investing in the right hardware now will save you money in the future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
