most companies dont offer complete trials bikes any more. echo did offer build kits for a while, now you have to buy each pience one part at a time... it pretty much isnt worth it for the bike companies to sell complete bikes, and a lot of trials riders, for the most part, would rather build up their own bike instead of buying a build kit.

i agree... although i'm not entirely sure why i picked a zebdi when i was deciding way back when, but whatever. building you own bike sorta ensures you know exactly which part you're putting on your bike, for instance, more often than not u get a cheese headset and/or BB. some shops may offer demo frames with cranks and forks already attached or the brakes attached. and if you're still intent on getting a complete bike, try ebay.

I think Norco still sells complete bikes. At least, entry level.

yeah, you can get that Norco Evolve complete, and Tim at Trialsin.com usually has complete bikes. If he doesn't, he will build you one upon request.

Call Tim at Trialsin. I think he stopped putting the complete bikes on his web page because people always wanted different part specs or there would be shortage of certain parts etc. I'm pretty sure though that he still sells complete bikes.
Give him a call, he's a good guy and will help you out with all of your questions.
Just be forewarned, if you want specific parts and they have to be ordered, Trials companies are notorious for being very slow... be prepared to possibly wait months, even if the company says it is "in the next shipment".
