Back To Trials, Back To Pashley

I made the great decision to get back onto a trials bike, i originally threw together some parts onto my old Monty Urban frame but after 1 ride I fell back in love with trials and decided to look for a new frame. I had the intention of getting something similar to my old 1100 wb Koxx Levelboss but then found a frame that I'd wanted when I rode as a teenager, and here she is :dance:

It rides so much better than I could ever have imagined, especially being so short compared to what I was ridding last time round. Its possibly not the most ideal bike for how I ride considering I have no street skills at all but I feel really comfortable riding it and pushing myself on it.

I tried to keep the build as old skool as I could, the current spec is;

Frame: Pashley 26GHZ

Forks: Pashley

Headset: Hope

Stem: Unknown 120mm x 17 ( got a trialtec stem on the way same geo)

Bars: Tensile 9's with Sunline lock on thin grips

Rear brake: Magura HS33 05 with Koolstop pads and tensile offset mounts

Front brake: Avid V-Brake with Koolstop Supra 2 Clear pads

Cranks: Middleburn RS7 175mm with 16t Pro trials bash

Pedals: Azonic

Rear Tensioner: Shimano XTR SSC

Front Wheel: Hope Ti Glide hub radially laced onto a DMR DV Rim 32h

Rear Wheel: Hope Pro 2 Trials on Planet X BMF Rim 32h

Tyres: Michelin DH16 and Country front.

Heres a few other images
