Trialsy street frames

[thisthingz]

Hey, i was looking to find a street frame with a little bit of a trials bike influence, and right now im looking at the px alibongo or perhaps a STP, Do u guys have any suggestions for frames?
Thanks alot

[JuiceBoX]

simtra bnb
px ghost, maybe jackflash?

ive rode an stp really nice for street not incredibly awesome for trials but im sure you could get by with it considering i ride a kona scrap and are hella good haha
custom steel would be what i would do but that costs money which i dont have.

[guumer]

norco moment or norco tt

[bEavoLa]

PlanetX Zebdi
any Leeson (UK brand)
Giant Team Trials

[stinkybastard]

I think the Simtra bnb Looks fucken sweet, havent ridden it, lest seen it in person, But if street/trials was my flavor, Id be on it like a fat kid on cake

[toyota200x]

I have a brisa b26d if you want to go more trials. 150 plus shipping.

[jtrials]

px hammer head for 150 if your interested cad........

[thisthingz]

lol isnt the hammerhead frame like 6-7 pounds? :wtf: , anyway thanks for all the suggestions guys- im looking at
px alibongo and possibley the bnb, does anyone know anything about the alibongo?

I would say you are definitely looking at either a PX Zebdi, or custom steel. The BnB has too much BB drop (-20). The Zebdi is THE street/trials bike. If I went custom steel for a street/trials frame, I would get Zebdi geo with 1 cm longer WB a 0.5 cm longer stays. (Zebdi geo is HA 74, BB 0, CS 400, WB 1023 w/ a PX Knifen).

Yeah that is the best thing you can do. Make a otherwise trialsy bike into a more streety one by getting shorter stem, and mountain handlebars. Just be careful no to get a frame that has a high bb. That way it won't be streety no matter what you do.

I've ridden the BnB with a 3" fork, and it felt very good, the BB really did not feel to be that low...

The Ghost would be a good choice, the zebdi is a bit too short for a street bike IMO, as you would normally want to stay away from stems longer than ±70mm on a street bike setup...

I've personnally been riding the KOXX Code as a street bike for 2 years now and just loving it...

ever seen a bmx? their wb is about 900 and some mm...

Look into norco or planet x.

I'd go with a norco cause it'll fail but last much longer then a planet x.

[carnagr]

And cost half as much as a Norco...

[lucky13]

My buddie should be selling his STP soon with two forks and Disc or V setup,..

I'll have him post it in the Forsale threader.

all of those look damn nice but out of my price range :blah: thanks for the post though :x:

[Mehukatti]

Zebdi, Leeson, Giant Team Trials, Alibongo are not street frames. They are street trials / old school trials frames. Go to Pinkbike and see what a street bike looks like.

Anyways, I recommend NS Bikes Suburban to the original poster. Its geometry is similar to Norco Moment but it has horizontal dropouts.

[lucky13]

Read the original question much?

Every sugestion has been valid except for yours. What, GOogle whatever your unheardof frame is? Cool, thanks for the help.

OH, THAT FIGURES! It's german.

[justfuzzit]

PX or woodman (not too sure) or simtra BNB

[capin]

Dont know if its availible where u live, but check Author A-Gang. Its cheap.

[Juhan]

author a-gang is an awesome streety trials frame. it bunnyhops and manuals like a mad even with a rigid fork and a reasonably long stem while not losing it's above the average trials possibilities, but if you want, you can shove a 130mm fork and a 40mm stem on it and go do some massive stairgaps. one of the best streety-trials frames ever. (that's probably because it was designed by spaceman, who himself rides trials and street both on his signature frames)

[thisthingz]

ahh, thanks for ALL the input guys :x: i think im gonna go with the simtra BnB =) th anks once again

Then if you want to use BMX handlebars and 20" wheels on the Zebdi to increase clearance for you feet and knees, that's another story
