Gabriele Marcelli's crash in Toulouse looked horrendous (belly flop from 10-12 feet up onto concrete, if you didn't see it). It was a relief to see him joining the podium, even if he looked very tender and had a big dressing on his face. Is it time to consider helmets wit face protection in trials? I can't really see any downside.

Hey all, so I am about 250ish lbs with gear. Hoping this is the correct place to ask for correct gear. So I am wondering if I should upgrade my springs to something stiffer. I do trail ride on the trials, but its usually super rocky. I train in there so I can develop some balance and force myself to stand up. I have a feeling stiffer springs would be very beneficial for my weight, but asking for opinions? This is essentially what the terrain looks like. And if I should invest in Trials boots vs the MX boots I have now?

Hi all, not sure if this ok and correct. mum looking for a pair of used boots that anyone has or willing to sell for my don, adult size 11 hes never rode trials before and not fancied to pay over £200 for a new pair just in case he doesn’t get into it, I would if he was my size, but I’d have to stuff with a bag of coal to fit me. Anything at all for a starter, thanks for whoever reply’s.

Just seeing what everybody uses for jacket whilst riding, I’m looking at the jitsie glow jacket at the moment, sounds like a good jacket windproof, waterproof, also has a hood so use whilst out and about. Just after some advice. It’s not the cheapest but only the same as a walking jacket big brands.

Hello everyone, I am back into trials after many years riding only enduro. Now I want boots but don't know which brands are recommended. I am looking for save and high quality boots that are also available in big sizes. I am not so much concerned about the price as I value my feet quite high.

I'm in North America, so our trials selection to go try stuff on is pretty limited. The shops online seem to only list boys/men or unisex. Any lady trials riders out there have suggestions for well fitted ladies trials gear? Brands/models etc? Thanks!

Found these online for a good price, so treated myself to them to go with my new helmet. I have three other pairs of Sidi boots, love the quality and build of them all.

So you might have seen my intro and hello post re my new Montesa 4RT. Well I couldn’t buy a new bike and not have a helmet helmet to match, so I invested in this new Airoh TRR S model. It’s a fabulous helmet, can’t believe how light it is, spec says 850 grams, but it feels a lot lighter in use.

Hi, I'm planning to pick up my first trials bike tomorrow, super excited. I've done MX for many years and wear knee braces due to 2 ACL recons on my left knee. Just getting peoples opinion of if people think I should wear my MX braces for Trials, i'd prefer not to as I feel they'll be bulky but if people think ACL injury is high risk on trials like it is with MX I will do, I also do DH mountain biking and have no issues not wearing my braces for that Thanks in advance

Given my looming years, tendency to fall off and inability to fix as well as I used to I'm looking at getting chest and back protection. Looking at the protectors and how they work / are formed they all seem much of a muchness apart from pricing.... the Comas one looks great and only £59.99 whereas the Jitsie appears very similar and is £95 Anyone know if there is anything glaring that the Jitsie offers over the Comas one? (or suggest another alternative) thanks

I am slowly planning on my trial riding gear. Now, one thing I've noticed is that there is not much storage provided in most of the riding apparel (pants/ jerseys). I am used to having plethora of pockets in my ADV riding jacket I don't plan to carry a lot of stuff with me, but some essentials ( phone / wallet / car keys ). How do you carry stuff like this while trial riding? Bum bags ( waist packs / fanny packs ), back packs? Which of those do you find convenient?
