Howdy mofo's,

I is back in the stinking heat of Sydney and I be needing a trusty trials steed to facilitate my rehabilitation after living north of reasonable for far too long.

What is out there 26 inch wise at the moment? I know that Manly Cycles brings in a couple of Onza's and I am considering that as a quick solution leading to getting something a bit nicer soon after like a BT or Koxx bit any suggestions would be gladly accepted.

Peace, is there going to be a Wednesday evening ride tomorrow, if so I might head down and meet you and the other guys and if not we will have to hook up soon for a ride.

Cheers,
Damien

I have a BT 4.0 frame with 4 bolts in white in stock for $600 if you are interested. That is the last we will have until probably the end of March as the factory is closed down until then due to winter. I know it isn't a complete bike but there is an option open to you. If you are interested email btaustralia(@)yahoo.com.au

BT's are a great option. Would be my choice now for sure.

They are awesome. The differences between the bt4 and bt5 are minimal and seem largely aesthetic - for go it. I mean go for it. Don't for go it.

Damien i would go for a nice bike now.. you are obviously already at a skill level that requires a decent bike. Its hard to get complete bikes now.. most people just sell frames. Likewise with second hand too, which is a pain. www.chainreactioncycles.com (http://www.chainreactioncycles.com) seems to be a popular place to buy most other parts from lately.

Whereabouts are you living anyway and didn't you have an Echo team? I'm on hols til the 21st of Feb and keen to ride pretty much anytime. PM'd you my numbers

I spoke to Eddie on the phone last night and mentioned you were coming back.. he's been out of trials for the last 3 years. I've told him to buy a trials bike again (he has the money) and I know he's keen.. he said he would, alas just hasn't got round to actually doing it, maybe you can kick his ass in the right direction???

Hey Guys thanks for the feedback and I think I will eventually get a BT together over the next few months but in the meantime I have purchased a "cheap!" mod, can you say T-pro? to get me through till it is built.

Mitch I got your numbers and will send you and Peace mine shortly as I am very keen to get out riding again. Sadly I haven't ridden since I sold my Echo just after xmas.:(

Alexm expect an email from me in the next couple of weeks once I get a little more settled.

Thanks again, looking forward to meeting all you guys soon.
