Hi all,
New to trials, I have backround in BMX and ride a hardtail. Just wondering what a good, cheap beginners trials bike would be.
Thanks

something from Planet X perhaps if you're more into streetish things. They're usually a good value if you're looking for a stock bike.

Ok, maybe something a little better than a stock bike. Probably willing to spend up to $300

He is refering to a Stock Class (26" wheel) trials bike, not a regular stock mountain bike. Your not going to find anything new for $300, but a used mod (20" wheel) is probably in your range if you can find one.

Search the for sale/wanted to buy forum to see if any are available.

haha. Stock bike as in 26" wheels. You will not find a new stock bike for anything less than six or seven hundred. Dunno if you're talking about a frame or complete bike. PX would be 3 or 4 hundred for a frame. If you don't want to spend more than 300, go used, check around the buy/sell section.
