there basicaly no info on every single bike part, you dont seem to have many parts either. coming from the uk im use tarty bikes www.tartybikes.co.uk/news.php thats how it should be.. lol dont mean to be harsh but i couldnt find any decent parts. you only have the echo freewheels? basicaly nobody has tried them, get some eno's try-all and tensile freewheels in, all tried and tested. also you only seem to stock zhi frames, get all the deng and koxx frames in. try a Kot out, theyre amazing. get some monty frames, cheap and well made, and well nice to ride. just seems a bit mix and match |

there basicaly no info on every single bike part, you dont seem to have many parts either I am/can be dealers of the following: Echo, Gu, Zhi, Zoo, Czar, Koxx, Try-all, Adamant, Monty, Kot, MBK, Simtra . coming from the uk im use tarty bikes www.tartybikes.co.uk/news.php thats how it should be Mate you need to understand the trials scene in Australia is very very very small compared to the UK, be my guest to start up a full time biketrial shop in its own store in WA! It would be a laugh and a half...... lol dont mean to be harsh but i couldnt find any decent parts Keep your personal opinions to yourself, people are most likely are going to disagree with you on what is descent. you only have the echo freewheels? basicaly nobody has tried them I have, get some eno's try-all and tensile freewheels (I have a tensile here but there is no point getting any others, as I wouldn't sell any...) in, all tried and tested. also you only seem to stock zhi frames, get all the deng and koxx frames in Yes, I have got some echo frames in stock but, you still don't understand that the scene is tiny and people rarely buy frames, so I just buy 10 different Koxx frames (Koxx is too expensive for most people) and stuff and not sell them???. try a Kot out, theyre amazing. get some monty frames, cheap and well made, and well nice to ride. just seems a bit mix and match 
I hope that answers your questions, in summary to all of them, there is no market to sell parts to.... |

when parts are not needed or you dont want to keep them in stock you should still have them on your site with 'available to order' next to them. and i have used almost every trials part i can think of, i never buy the same thing twice unless i bought every kind of that product, im yet to get a echo freewheel as my eno is just too nice to get rid of...lol sorry mate im just upset that im leaving the UK trials scene for basically no scene. do you have sponsored riders??? if so arrange big demos, and have a section where people and kids can try the bikes, get a cheap onza 20" for the kids to try, you never know that may be their next xmas present bought from your shop if they like it... lol we need to make a trials scene in oz lol

Not many people ride in perth.... there is probably about 5-10 people who are bike trial orientated. But there are quite a few people in the moto trials community who have trials pushbikes, but are no where as serious with them....
There used to be competitions here, but there is diddly squat here now.. Would like to see a club or something here....

Uktrials, you're a douchebag...
There are only 2 echo dealers in the whole of the country...
Why would he want to stock as many parts as tartybikes when there is like 1/50th of the riders in australia as there are in the UK? It makes no sense? Don't come over here whinging about everything. If you don't like it, stay where you are.. or just keep ordering from tartybikes, no one gives a damn
