Is it worth converting to Taper Roller or is cup and cone sufficient?..If taper roller is worth the hassle, where can i get them?

Thanks for all your answers,I`m off to the Harry Perry trial for a nose around

Woody, thanks for your answers,I will try and get along to those bmca trials and take a look. As for the C15, I`m quite prepared to modify it, I enjoy that sort of thing ( my road bike is a BSA A65 I restored a few years ago so I `m a bit of a masochist anyway!),and the frame is bare at the mo and I don`t have wheels or hubs. I`m ok on engines and this one was reputedly rebuilt not long ago but time will tell.. Thanks for your input Majesty man but I just prefer Brit bikes. I`m only hoping to do this for fun,I know more modern bikes are better, I just like the way Brit stuff looks and sounds. Anymore info gratefully received..... Where is the Harry Perry round ?

Hi all, hope my questions haven`t been covered before but here goes...I fancy having a go at pre 65 Trials, I`m 39, and up til a few years ago used to do a bit of trail riding on a modern KTM,and often made the numbers up in Mid wales enduro`s. I`ve got a `65 C15 frame (road) and engine in the garage and hopefully this would form the basis of my bike. I`m ok with gas bottles,even better with angle grinders and brilliant at leaving chuck keys in lathes.... Q1.. Does pre 65 mean a `65 bike is too young or is it from when machine production run began? Q2 what sort of mods should I aim for that would leave me eligible to ride with majority of clubs( hope that isn`t too vague a question,I`m not after every mod,just what sort of spirit should I aim for..(I`ve got my copy of Don morleys 4 stroke book,
