  1. I am starting to get interested in trials. Any
    reccomendations from you guys would be great. I figure I
    could spend about 700 for a frame.

    Websites? Brands?

    Any help would be great.

    TIA

    www.trials-online.com is THE best place for trials
    information. Check out the forum.

    Before you buy anything you MUST read blushark's brilliant
    FAQ: free-du.htnet.hrfaq.html

    If you are looking for an economical, but worthy complete
    bike. Check out Norco's Evolve. About $700 Having a
    trials bike, and riding one are two different things. I
    hope you ride it.

    My first question: Do you want to ride stock or mod?

    I ride a mod.

    You don't need a trials-specific bike now... almost any old
    MTB will do... hardtail of course. As long as the frame size
    is 17" or under, you should be able to get started.

    It should be quite substantially under 17". 13" to 14" is
    the best to work with.

    I should have rephrased what I said... *If you have a bike
    already* and want to get started, almost any old MTB will
    do. I agree about the size otherwise...
