Littleharrys Posted May 20, 2006 Report Share Posted May 20, 2006 I know it sounds like the same old topic, my mate has just graduated with a 1st class honours degree in product design. He has worked for DMR and spent a year making and testing bike parts. He is now looking at making a new trials frame. Can you give me what you think are the best 5 trials frames on the market now!!12345Cheers Guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waynio Posted May 20, 2006 Report Share Posted May 20, 2006 it depends what you like, what you want to do with it.Sounds like a "forum arguement" waiting to happen. someone will say one thing then someone the next. its personal preference what suits and fits your needs the most.Waynio.........................

Waynio Posted May 20, 2006 Report Share Posted May 20, 2006 (edited) Funny that you missed a couple of good ones out though.Apollo trials starKona StinkyWaynio.....................EDIT: on a more serious note, if your 5ft upto 5ft 6/7 a bike with a wheelbase upto 1065/1070 is pretty nice, for natural riding. for a lad over 5ft 8 and above something over 1075/1080 would be good for natural, if your a street ripper owt upto about 1065 (as a 1065 bike will still bunnyhop pretty well and quick.) some 1070 and 1080 bikes will, but its harder to ge front end up with 375mm stays. its all about personal preference though.what ever bike you ride or choose to ride you have chosen as you like it in one shape way or form. hence why i chose my new bike, it suits me down to the ground pretty much what i have been looking for for ages. you get a feel for what you like or what yo want all you gotta do is research and ask questions. everyones opinion will be different Edited May 20, 2006 by Waynio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrishayton Posted May 20, 2006 Report Share Posted May 20, 2006 echo control should definatly be on the list, the new mbk hass some fancy design features and apparently rides very nicely as does a limeythe new asthon is very popular due to the geo being a good mix of short and long bike geo. for top end comp frames the XtpR is apparently amazing although tubing is rather thin so easy to dent hence why its a 'comp' frame. anyway thats some sugestions that i would consider the best frames in trials at the moment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IOLO Posted May 20, 2006 Report Share Posted May 20, 2006 thats just SUCH a hard question !!echo control....great, but VERY boringkoxx XTP, brilliant geometry, BUT horrid CNC lumps and the weakest downtube around.ECHO PURE !!! ace deisgn, ace geometry and strong.. they are brilliant !! a real good frame !but steel is still better ! lol iolobikes.comcant help being biasediolo.

ramps Posted May 20, 2006 Report Share Posted May 20, 2006 I find that kots are damn nice to ride. I can't really put an ordet on things but I will throw a few names around any way. Zoo! Pitbull 04 - rides nice as Onza t-rex - rides well, strong as fookOnza limey - I havent had a do on one but people rave about em and they look mintAshton justice - rides well and I havent heard of any of the new ones snapping though i may be mistakenJust a the first few to pop into my head at such a late hour.

Walleee Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 I can't believe people are even trying to answer this, it's not even a proper question.5 best trials frames? honours degrees?You'd think with an honours he'd at least be able to specify what type of bike, Stock/Mod....God, now I can't believe I bothered to type that to those who are clearly too far gone.....

Tomm Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 Spanner in the works:1) Ashton ET 242) My old Leeson Fluid 6093) Planet-X ZebdiThey're the only 3 frames I think I would ride at the moment, although I haven't tried the UK24 yet, and that inspired frame might be ok if it ever sees the light of day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toxicturky Posted May 26, 2006 Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 here's an idea, rather than saying "best frame" say "most popular frame", compile a list of all the frames you can think of mod and stock and do a mahusive poll, most people will vote out of curiosity and you will have your answer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
