Tonne Posted May 14, 2018 Report Share Posted May 14, 2018 (edited) Hey guys. My name is Anton, and im looking to get into some street trials. I've read a lot of opinions, but i cant decide. Bugdet is about 1500 £, so should i go for the Hex 26'' or achade or fourplay? Greetings from Denmark. Seems like im the only Dane thinking about trials Btw. I am 196 cm tall. 6,6 foot tall or something like that Edited May 14, 2018 by Tonne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwtrials Posted May 15, 2018 Report Share Posted May 15, 2018 Being as tall as you are the Hex might feel more comfortable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dk2 Posted May 29, 2018 Report Share Posted May 29, 2018 ive had both an Hex,fourplay and arcade, all do different stuff, so it all comes down to riding style... what are you thinking/looking to ride most ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi dk2. Can you write a little bit about the different feel/handling of these 3 bikes and what you like about them? As Anton, I'm considering these models (and also the Flow Plus). Mainly interested in street and just messing around, but could also see myself finding some outdoorsy area to mess around in (boulders, logs, etc). Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archie H Posted June 12, 2018 Report Share Posted June 12, 2018 (edited) You can do pretty much anything on any bike, it just comes down to personal preference. Considering your height, a 26 might be better as you will probably feel more comfortable with the slightly bigger size, although due to the geo of the bikes its not that different to ride (so ive heard), but yeah, if i were you, id go 26.

Thanks Hi i think the arcade has a more "solid" feel due to the steel frame, and I'm more used to that due to 20+ years on bmx bikes. So for the street park I find I trust i more...the arcade bunny hops really well, where as the hex has a "bigger" feel to it which i dont like. This "bigger" feel in turn makes it better for static moves and rolling over stuff. The fourplay is a bread of its own. Fun and stable but not as lively as the others. All are killer bikes, so really hard to give recommendations. ..but you know some days you wear sandals, some day boots.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
