I used to compete many moons ago , bmbf series , competed against the young will cogger , mark miles , two guys called Martin and Martyn ????
Had a bunny hop contest against jez avery on my monty at an event in Lichfield , got to 43" and could not go any more.

1994 monty b219ch
1993 zaskar le
1994 ibex team issue prototype

2007 onza trex comp prototype ( only 3 ever made )
2008 onza 20" prototype
Then got back into xc..........
I have pictures of most of the bikes except the zaskar , ibex which I am gutted about.
I got the onza bikes as my mate works for them still today so I know about some of the sexy
Nos bits of kit still left in the warehouse
My current build is a zaskar which has the hans rey influence about it and is getting there build coming soon.
Trials is something that's plyable to the trails , the balance and weight shift helps when tackling trails , such as the follow the dog and monkey run where I live . Plus you never get too old for the track stand , wheelie, back hop etc
I was there in the early days of bikes with small frame and low seats , now it's mental just look at the new
Gt trials built for kenny belay , fantastic bike !
That's my bit
