Need advice for my first street trial bike


Recommended Posts

Hello!!

 

hope you are all doing great!

 

so I’m new to street trial! I want to start this amazing sport with my son! He’s 9 and I’m 34 (hope I’m not too old 🤣)

 

I need some advice from all of you guys! I’m a big guy, 193 for 93kg and I’m wondering which bike would be the best fit for me.

 

i know I need a bigger reach, so I’m hesitating between an inspired hex in 26 ou an arcade in 24.

 

i know I’m not gonna be the super tricky guy with big rotation or super technical move, but I want something that I can have fun with, do basic trick, manual, bunny hops, have fun in the street, climb stuff etc.

 

i’ve red that 24 is more fun and 26 more stable, but as a beginner with a big body I don’t know which one could be the easier and the safer the start with?

 

hope you guys can help me a little from experience 

 

see you 😎

I'd personally go with the Hex, I need bikes with a long reach and have had numerous 24's but no matter what the setup I never felt properly comfortable on them (thats not to say tall people don't work on them I just never could). 

The Hex can be equally as spinny as a 24 as well so you won't lose out there.
