Purchased in Germany a few years ago and brought back to the U.S.
Hooger-Booger stock trials bike, custom built specifically for trials w/
gussetted frame, elevated chainstays, and integrated bash guard at the
bottom bracket. Magura hydraulic brakes w/ boosters, rock solid feel and
control. A unique, one-of-a-kind find at a bargain price...

Anyone heard of these bikes? Name doesn't sound appealing I know...

around.

Trials isn't done on dirt? It sure was when I rode it. And I did it on a
mountain on a mountain bike. Has it turned into some circus act like that
indoors place in Cleveland?

What are you talking about? Go read a little bit about the bicycle trials
world, you need to learn a few things...

True trials bicycle riding still exists in the world and it still has a
loyal following. That place in Cleveland has nothing to do with trials...

If you're looking for a trials bike, have a look at Monty, better value for
your money...

Some competitions are done indoors, and more of the recreational types ride
in an urban setting. Spools, pallets, etc.

Yes, I know there are a lot of trials competitions up boulder/rocks
outdoors, but this is pretty small compared to the majority of trials these
days...

Not really looking for a trials bike. But this one was only for
$200 so I'd figure I'd ask anyway...
