Trials Australia Forums

Just in case anyone is wanting to build a megabuck lightweight TY175 or TY250, I see that there are now kits available to replace various steel bits on the TY175 and TY250 with titanium bits.
I saw them advertised as a new product by France Trial Classic and the kit includes the steering stem, front and rear axles, swingarm axle and the spacers and nuts associated with them.
As you might expect, the kits are very expensive

295 Euros to lose a kilo.

That's nothing, when I was doing some work with an America's Cup team a few years ago, the technical director told me that they reckoned 100,000 dollars to lose a kilo from the top of the mast was a bargain!

Happy days,
