I feel dirty....
« on: February 16, 2010, 08:46:01 pm »
It's something I've tried to block out for some time now. I've thought "let it go, you'll get over it" but now it's become a real obsession.
I (er) got this (um) really uncontrolable urge to (ummmm)........

get a trials bike.

Yes that's right. A trials bike.

I've never even ridden one but I keep seeing all these really neat looking Cota twinshocks on eBay going for next to nothing and I get all nostalgic thinking of myself popping a 'wheelie' over some little rock wearing one of those little caps like all those guys used to wear back in the 70's or.....

Getting one of those wiz-bang new age trials things that look like they're off on a moon mission and I imagine myself as one of those guys in the trials videos riding over trains with my hat on sideways and my pants on backwards looking really cool with some doof-doof music playing in the background.

So I really don't know what to go for. 1980's Cota (Country Gent  :)) or 2004 Dougie Lampkin replica (Yo! Skin my hand Mudda-(censored) 8))

It can be our little secret..... :-X

If you want to hone the skills, the Trials bike is a step in the right direction.
Look at the riders that have crossed over, Meeriman, Jarvis, Blazusiak, the things they can do on a MX or Enduro bike is incredible. The other magic thing about a trails bike is they don't wear out. They may get knocked around a bit, but you won't be doing engine freshen up's every season or replacing tyres after every 2nd race.

Go for the old 1, this is a vmx site after all.
Why would you want valves, fuel pump & a loud exhaust? But then I'm a biased 2stroke rider ;D

Oh it'd be a two banger. No worries about that. And as Rod pointed out it's not like you have to spend a lot on them.
I think after carefull consideration, I should get both.  :P
There's a skate park across the road from me and I can't help thinking what havoc I could create over there (apart from falling flat on my face! :D)

Would you ride it? What about those large boulders and trees that come at you? They could hurt you!

That wouldn't be a bad starter, just keep the rock size down & you'll be fine
