Hello
Im new to trials bikes and trials riding but full of enthusiasm for the classic bikes,im in the midst of restoring a Montesa Cota 200 M29 which im really enjoying,it will not be a concours winner but a tidy example that i will not be too scared of using.
I have just spent a enjoyable hour looking at the pictures from the Telford show (thanks for sharing them) i did not realise there was such an event so definetley on my list of things to do next year.
Never heard of the Merlin in the pictures,anyone care to enlighten me on there history.
As for my bike what where they like back in there time i:e competetive,rubbish anyone have much success with them?
Well im off to play in the shed now and hopefully get a little further on with my build
Regards Mark
P.S anyone got a airbox for my bike as my mounting lugs are broken
