Bike addict Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 Hi mate. Ashton, they are super smooth and really manouverable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mini Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 Hi, i was just wondering are you looking for a 20" or a 26"? I would go for the Aorta just because it's new and the geometry sounds pretty good.Thanks from Stuart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trials Boy Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 Good and bad reasons for both:Ashton:Looks a beast, apprently it rides real nice, its stiff and red looks the dogs. BUTLOADS of people have them now, and are coming out of stock quite quickly and costs more than the Aorta Aorta:Looks brillaint as well, its cheaper and hardly anybody has it at the moment! BUT Its silver and everyone has silver frames, doesnt look as good as the ashton, and only comes in silver I would have the Ashton in red any day mate! Go for it!

ben_travis Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 my opinion is the following.......if your getting an ashton becaue you think it will make you ride anything like ALI C or JAMES PORTER (both sponsored by ashton) after seeing there recent videos thenDONT......it will not make you automatically ride like either of these, who have both been riding ages and both are ace riders who push their limits.DONT BE A SHEEP>>>>>>>>> get something different. just my opinion. but you should NEVER get a bike, hoping it will make you ride like someone who has one. It doesnt happen like this.ben** sorry if this seemed harsh to say, my rear windscreen went through on my car tonight so i just need to get it sorted and im a little grumpy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simpson Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 if your getting an ashton becaue you think it will make you ride anything like ALI C or JAMES PORTER (both sponsored by ashton) after seeing there recent videos thenThen dont get the Aorta because they sponsered CLS and all the wanna bees already have pythons lmao loli saw the ashton tried and tested i guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cvtrial Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 I don't like the Ashton bikes, so go for the Aorta! they looks so SWEET, and looks SMOOTH to ride ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross McArthur Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 aorta all the way. if the bar and stem set up is correct then bunny hopping will be a breeze on it, even with the bb rise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoyoyo Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 Ashton.Nicest bike i've ever ridden. And it still helps me improve.But you would expect that with most bikes that have a geo to suit you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SubZero Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 Well I would prefer the ashton! cause i am a rider who want to try different styles of ridin,i wann sidehop tap and gap but also some 180°'s, spins and other streety stuff....so i chosedthe Ashton! And it was the best choice! If you wanne ride comps and tap 60" walls....maybe the aorta is the better choice.... So it is your decision not ours! I would clearly go for the ashton looks sooo beasty and rides awesome! hope it helps dude!Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
