Man you just got a bike, I don't know if I can stand seeing another

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...
