So here we are, episode three and visiting Tartybikes near Preston.
If you've been following this series so far (if not then now's a good time to catch up) you'll have seen that it was possible to get a bike for a budget and get out riding straight away. That doesn't mean that the bike was especially good though and there were a few things that held me back.
Today I'm going to upgrade the bike to make it ride as good as I can get it without spending too much more money (easier said than done).
Adam went into great detail on setting up different aspects of the bike which I've cut from this video (would have been over 2 hours long otherwise) and instead I'm going to put them up as separate guides so keep an eye out for those.
I can't thank Adam, Cap and Stan enough for their help, please consider Tartybikes if you are wanting a trials bike, parts or even just advice...let them know you heard about them from me too as it will help further videos happen.
