...now its a 25/13 geared short crank FIXIE with no seat.Front brake only and a chain tugger.

Trials is awesome! Looking forward to seeing the bike but really wanting to see it in action! Some of them guys are just so crazy on their bikes. Seen a couple of indoor comps. One of them being at an Autoshow years ago. They were climbimg all over a brand new jeep in one section of the course! :shock:
I had a couple of friends back in high school that did motorcycle trials. They were some bad boys! Always wanted to give it a try but never competed. Sure did like riding their bikes though. This new generation of riders is insane!
Lets see some style!

I used to compete in trals back in the late 80'S, i was junior provincial champion!

the most important thing if you build a trial bike, is brakes! you need very strong brakes, you cant do anything with only a front brake as most of the moves are made with wheels locked...
