I want to build a classic trials bike. I am also looking to build it from the frame up. I know this is the expensive option in the long run, but I dont have much time because of my work and I just want to add to it as and when. I have seen two frames with swinging arms on a well know auction site. One a Bantam D14 and the other a Yam TY250. I prefer the larger engine as I am a large framed guy as I am thinking the bantam engine may struggle. Do you have any other suggestions? Thanks

Hi I am from cheshire and have taken the step to build/repair a trials bike and attempt to ride through my first water hazard. I am new to trials, but not to classic motorcycles and after a break of about 19 years, want to get back in the saddle. I am looking to build something up from the frame onwards whilst documenting it all but in the mean time still attend events. Lots of questions to ask Andy
