Ali C Posted November 15, 2006 Report Share Posted November 15, 2006 you need at LEAST 6 working gears, you can have any number you want over that amount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan the trials man Posted November 15, 2006 Report Share Posted November 15, 2006 i think u will find he siad saracen and u said its a good bike lolbut it is a fine bike for a beginer i know 2 people that heave them they dont ride them very hard though personely i would never buy a saracenbut if it was a choice of having a saracen or nothing i would have a saracen any dayit is a good beginer bike but i think he went over the top by saying it was a realy good bike.thats a bit gay i think if some one doesnt want gears they shouldnt have to i would like to enter comps wen i get better but i am getting a zoo pitbull single speed so i cant know.in this months mbuk ther was a champion and the son of the owner of koxx and trials they both had single speed and they were amazing that wasnt street eather.

kid creole Posted November 15, 2006 Report Share Posted November 15, 2006 i think you only have to have gears in the bigger comps like national and world . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoyoyo Posted November 15, 2006 Report Share Posted November 15, 2006 Isn't it that if you don't have any gears, you lose the score at the end. I.E it's not counted.Never paid amazing amounts of attention to comps, because i only ride for fun. So don't take this as 100% right.

Ali C Posted November 15, 2006 Report Share Posted November 15, 2006 your now allowed single speed at uci compe, but from what I gather you still must use a hub that has enough room for 6 gears (so no singlespeed hubs) that mean the new mod stock wont be able to compete in any mayjor comps.You must have 6 working gears for BIU comps, but at the brits you can ride a single speed, but your result is declared void. Most small comps allow singlespeed no problems though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walleee Posted November 15, 2006 Report Share Posted November 15, 2006 Guys there is no need to argue I posted both types of rules at the top.The rules which were posted wern't really any good as they are not applicable to both UCI and BIU.
