  4. My vote? Go for the new Nimbus ISIS trials.

    That Qu-Ax (19" in U.S., 20" in Europe) is MUCH lighter than the trials
    DX (19"😉, but the maximum widest knobby tire available is a 20X2.4 (it
    has a rounder profile than most true trials tires, making side to side
    ballance a bit harder). Kenda Flame is a *20X3" cruiser tire, but it's
    more like 2.5" wide (and maybee other manufacturers), it's probably
    good for urban trials and street, but I don't know if anyones tried
    it.

    The frame is very strong and reasonably light. The DX's is as heavy as
    a tank.The red hub is ISIS, but not nearly as strong as all other
    splined hubs. but I have heard of several people doing drops up to 3.5
    feet w/o problems (your weight and technique are big factors in uni
    durability).

    Ride everywhere and never just ride anywhere. If you can ride where you
    are going within a hour, do it, and if you can do a trick 50-75% of the
    time do it along the way.
    Parafrasing a pro skater when asked for advise to kids who wanted to
    get much better and maybee turn pro one day.

  5. I agree the new Nimbus trials, the isis hub one is the best new uni
    option at the moment.
