  • I have a very very small bit of inheritance. So far managed not to blow it on fixed gear bicycles.

    Trying and failing to find a suitable and local (within 100 mile round trip from Swindon) trials or enduro.

    Relatively specific, should be an older twin/mono trials suitable for green lanes as well as trials. Or, an older enduro that was basically a trials bike with a bigger tank.

    Can't find any Suzuki Beamish or Yamaha TY, or Honda TL/TLM nearby. Can't find anything else similar.

    There was a Suzuki TS125r not too far away, but that's just a pokey baby 2T, and probably not a big enough engine to satisfy me... considering I already own the heavy DR350, and a 2016 Sherco ST300.

    Not sure what my options are closer to crossers, and I don't think they'd suit me. I want to climb narrow rutted hills, not bomb along dunes.

    I want to do that with something with a bigger fuel capacity than my ST300... but I guess I could just look at a second similar ST, and fork out for a long range tank. Boo.

  • Gas Gas Pampera would be a good shout? The early txt Gas Gas before they went to the Pro model were so bombproof (pre 2003). Seen a few on marketplace recently as well. TY250 mono are decent money are really really great bikes. Best all rounders.
    We have a TY175 and a beamish and the TY is just so much better. Wouldn't be great on the road though but it would do it. 250 would be way better.

  • Yea TY250/pinky is up there, but looks like anything with wheels is £££overpriced at the mo, so I’ll just not
