November 23, 20232 yr hey guys. i’m not too sure how all of this works but basically, i discovered trials a while ago and i really wanna get into it. i saw many people recommending beginners to find a trials club in their area, so i went searching. i’d say i searched quite a bit, but i found absolutely nothing. i couldn’t find a single trials club in the country, let alone a dealer selling trials bikes in the area. i’m 16, so there isn’t much i can do like travel. what do i do now?
November 23, 20232 yr If you give a general idea of your location in sure someone will have suggestions.

November 23, 20232 yr I spent quite a lot of time in Singapore and have fond memories! How about a trials bicycle? Younger is better for that sport, and the skills will transfer. Edited November 23, 20232 yr by konrad

November 23, 20232 yr To borrow a British expression, they are as different as chalk and cheese. A trials bicycle will be much less expensive than a trials motorcycle, but more expensive than a "similar" bicycle. I searched "trials bicycle near Singapore" and this was the first hit: https://www.carousell.sg/p/trial-bike-1264009023 Search "danny macaskill" to see the very pinnacle of street trials ability. Trials Central has a forum devoted to trials bicycles: https://www.trialscentral.com/forums/forum/19-bike-trials/ Good luck. That's about all I can help.
November 23, 20232 yr This user here seems to be close 'ish' to you. He was last active 13 years ago, but it sounds like trials exists to some degree where you are
November 23, 20232 yr This site is as good as any for a start 👍 start a thread dedicated to your location to seek out riding partners.
