Dom thanks for taking your time to reply , appreciate that , lot of very useful info there . Combs not to far from me and deffo worth a look . I'm not a huge fan of how the betas look . Bit plasticy , cheap looking . Maybe me being picky . So did montesa switch to 4t in 2005 ? My other weapon of choice would be a sherco . Lovely looking bike .

Hrc I meant

Thanks for the reply chap ,it's a hard call to make with such a limited experience , I know I'm generally more suited to a honda in the mx world but this is all new . Any idea when they stopped making the 315 hex ?

Hi guys my first post on the forum so I'd like to firstly say hello to everyone , I've recently decided to make the jump from motocross over to trials , having spent most of my teens riding cycle trials it's something I've always wanted to do but all my mates ride mx so that's where I found myself. I've not sourced a bike yet but I've got a budget of about 1700 to 2k . I can't help but keep looking at the montesa 315 hrs , something about them bikes I love , I've read a lot of thread on which second hand bike to buy and the conclusion of most is find one that's suits your riding style , but how do I make that call if I've never riden a trials bike before ? Would the month be a good novice bike ? Be good if there was some where to test ride them lol . Secondly being from Bedfordshire , can anyone recommend a nice friendly local club where once I'm up and running can begin to compete at a novice level . Also are there any local practise areas where trials riders tent to hang out , be nice to meet some local riders .. Thanks for reading , jonny
