good good

i think iwill have to buy it now.

i want to change the rims to green zoo ones they are only 35 squid a peice but i dont know who i can get to put the hubs and spokes on and green brake boosters.

the only thing i was thinking about is i cant pedal kick because im a compleate beginer so i might look sily trying stuff but i sopose every one has to start somewere.

Yeah thatd look lush, My mate with the 06zoo has just got some green echo ones.

You wana get down your local bike shop mtae, I'm sure theyd build you up a wheel, the one near me charges bout 30quid inclucing spokes n labour.

Haha yeah everyones gotta start somehwere. i know someone who had a monty 221 when he was kinda just beginning, lush bike to ride, like a pogo stick on the back wheel, anyways, but yeah hes pretty good now so maybe having a decent bike helped!? Duno really, just know i wanted that monty! argh|! lol!

you can do street and off road with single speed cant you because i dont want to do just street.

[The Hitcher]

Yeah sure. loads of people i ride with use single speed and they all ride street and natural. I think quite a lot of people ride single speed but I prefer gears just cos im lazy and cant be arsed to go single speed. You could alway put gears on anyway if you dont like single speed. i find it harder to ride single speed as i like to change gear for different things, but it has its advantages as you havent got a derailer to destroy, which is a pain in the arse!

can u def put gears on it does it need any think spesial to have gears.

wat is a mod i dont know much i know its a lind of bike u can get a stock or mod i just wonderd wat it ment.

do u ride a 20 or 26 can u hop on the back wheels as easy as u can on a 26 then a 20.

do u know if that dvd mastering the art of trials is any good i might get it

I'm not sure, depends what hub it has on the back, if its a single speed hub then no.

mod mean modified i think, or 20" and stock is a 26". I ride a mission reefer 26", its a bit shit as im proper scint but im slowly doing it up and going to buy a new frame when i have enough money. I find is just as easy to hope on the back wheel whichever bike, but some people find it more difficult, but mainly once uve got hoping on ther back sussed then you could do it on either.

I havent seen that dvd, is it the one with ryan leech in? if it is ive being told its good, but look out the his dvd called manifesto, its just a crazy vid to watch , check out his site and watch some of the teasers!

I wouldnt spend too much money on a second bike. Just incase you dont like the sport and change you mind. Have a look in the for sale and wanted area of the forum. I know you cant post in there but maybe you could add the seller to msn or whatever.

However buying a better bike earlier on will help you to learn faster, thats what I think anyway, I started out on a koxx levelboss mod (which I still have) and believe I progressed quite fast.

Looks nice. Good frame, should last you a while escpially (How ever you spell it,lol) as your only a beginner.

i am 14 15 in jan i way 12 stone 12 and am 6ft 1 i think i am other weight but i totaly agree with you when you are bigger you can totaly control your bike more its just i was worried about blow out jumping from high objects and i just cant pedal kick but im sure will be able to do them soon do u ride a 24 or 26 wat do u think off the bike i put on here.

im not made of money but i dont think it is to much for a first trials bike i thought it was very good and it will last me longer i agree with the person that said you can ride better on better bike as well they are muck lighter and stronger.
