Trials Bike

[ThomasAAnderson]

Could anybody recommend me a bike to start out in trials riding?

i cant recomend a specific bike, but:

u need:

1. something that is light but you feel very comfortable on
2. something with real good brakes(linear pull, disc brakes)
3.something that fits you either very well, or, something that is slightly small.

and

you need to decide if you want a trials bike with gears or one gear.

look around and post the spec of the bikes you have found. im sure someone will ber more help than me.

I believe "Raceline" make a good entry level trials bike

Other than that - Monty.

Giant also have a funky lookinh trials bike too but I've got no pics.

Yeah, _any_ mountain bike will do for starting out. Better would be the smallest mtb you can find
with excellent brakes and strong parts. Best would be a trials-specific bike such as the Raceline
Rhino, a Monty, a Planet-X Zebdi, etc.
