    I know Summit's are good, but just how good? If you
    know anything about them could you tell me I may have
    an oppurtunity to but one, But I'm not sure if they're
    that good.

    Tell me pro's and con's, and how they compare in the
    trials world.

    Dollar for dollar it is about as good as it gets. I would
    say it is pretty industructable, of course I am not 13
    anymore. I probably could have destroyed it back then. Just
    like pretty much everything else I had.

    I would say an 8/10 is pretty good.

    Summit is the same as the KH20 except for the frame. The
    cranks are the same, the hub is the same. And you don't
    break frames often. I got my Summit for $200 on Ebay. KH are
    $400. I think I got an incredible deal.

    The summit frame is a little bit heavier though. I wouldn't
    hesitate to get it for a trials.

    Heh. As soon as he buys it I'm going to tell him I broke
    mine riding off a curb.

    The "Diamond Back" on eBay appears to be for real. It's
    not some mystery frame if it's that color. It's a Summit
    frame, and the splined crankset that comes with it. The
    current price, with just over 11 hours to go, is only
    $137! Go for it.

    I would immediately change out the seat, and of course make
    sure the spokes are properly tensioned.
