MikeCottTrials Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 ive asked a few times on here but never really got a straight answer so im gonna try again, does anyone know if 24inch bikes like the zoot are actually good for comp style trials. so how do they gap? tap? how are they on the back wheel?etc. ive got a feeling there bad but i need to know for sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luccosleeps Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 well im guessing the zoot frame would be probably good for it and as pretty much all onza's frame to do that sorta thing, but frames like the 24" leeson are more streety/bmx style frames but i mean u can do pretty much anything on any bike if try hard enough.

DAB Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 (edited) Does it matter???? there's tons of 26" trials bikes that are not designed for street/comp ect. it's how comfortable you feel on the bike.. i ride comp and street on a leeson and people say it's to short!! but fu#ck em, i can ride circles round them all , all you can do is try one??

If you can can get to a comp or on a ride have a go on peoples bikes, most trials riders will let you.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
