wayneone Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 will you be using it for doing trials or notWell id of thought so as he's on a trials fourm discussing a trials bike As for the bike there a great bike i had a team issue and it was a realy nice bit of kit, There strong altho Pissin_on_the_fence has cracked his but from what he said he realy pushed it hard.From first hand experience(owning one) and from having a mate who owns a 2zero(mod)and he is a realy harsh rider he beats the absolute f**k out of his bike and it takes all the abuse, i say get one!
