When we were off at the GT Malverns Classic, Dieter got so excited (even more excited than usual!) about all the retro trials bikes that we couldn’t help feeling a little bit tingly ourselves. Even if you weren’t there, or never actually owned a trials bike, or couldn’t even do ze wheelie, we think this video will have you enthused about the golden age of hopping about.
As Dieter points out, it’s a very accessible gateway into show bikes and retrobike builds. Before you know it, you might have a loft full of bikes you only dreamed of as a young thing!
