Yep, you should contact me.

i just love it....................

proof of what I have always thought about Aussie mechanics.............................

but what p****s me off...............is the guys who were fettling the trick pre65/twinshocks ect ...ect of yesteryear/the 80's are the first to moan/cry 'take the bike home after one lap' co's someone has got something new/better more trick/lighter............sick...........stop........STOP.............thinking of welding fins on barrel of my 4rt.......................ooooooooh!

ORDER NOW BEING TAKEN FOR 2008...............................

Let me tell it like it is.......... a bike set up right is the bike that (please try this experience)...................... 'hold handle bars in right hand fixed to throtle standing (thus keeping your bike vertical) with left hand free push seat (front of seat) or middle of bike in downward position, movement of forks and shocks should be of same', if so you have a twinshock for todays twinshock trials.................IF NOT THINK AGAIN If part one of this experience goes well and is as described/prefered then move on to mounting your machine and make the mods to your shocks to allow for lbs won or lost down at the old pull and push.................. ha! gota keep em seperated.................

I would stay away from any shock that is is just oil based............Gas /Oil shocks will give you the response you need for todays twinshock sections, oil needs time to transfer from top to bottom, the gas is there to give the shock its initial impulsion/reaction then as stated you get what you pay for............If you have ever tried releaseing the gas and all the oil shoots out you will know what I mean.................and I think I know what I am talking about..............stu at bps

I had one, bought after the Scotish 6 days trial in (I'll have to think about that) 78 79 80.................! 6 were built for Scotland 2 teams of 3 John Renolds John Metcalfe and Chris Griffin from the north, as far as I know was never ridden by Mick Andrews? Was a fantastic bike way ahead of its time................. Wish I still had it......................

This is gona be a long story..................Bruno Gilbert builds the bikes from Monpellier and I do the engines big bore kits 210 and 240cc though I have a friend thats taken his out to 260cc..............at the end of the 60's Motobecane buit some works 210cc trials bikes with the idea to market a trials bike based on the 175cc road bike but in the early 60's the laws on riding 125's without a full licence came about so they droped the idea, but they did market the bits to convert over the counter in Motobecane shops. Bruno has a well sorted bike that makes a trick cub look like a Sainsbury trolley.................and thats without a Mc frame and TY mono forks................This year sees the first South France Champioship...........and if I don't see Bruno in the top spot its only because Ren

NONE OF THE ABOVE........................!

YES

Try ours, chrome bodies, progresive springs, soft damping, alloy mountings, universal joints, fine thread adjustment, lighter by far than any other shocks of its kind on the market today as used by all the top french and spanish champions, not had any back for rebuild in over 3 yrs of sales todate and only

sorry i'm a computer nul, I can't seem to download photos on this site..............BUT photos on my new web site when bike is finished so I'll keep you posted.................

Ok how about this............... a real Montesa Honda...............242 Mont fitted with 306 Honda TL motor. Nearing completion in our workshops now.........its a tight fit but sits and looks the dogs.......b best and last of Montesa twinshock frames, but the 242 engine was'nt up to mixin it with the big boys. Will be used for French twinshock championship and I'm sure its gona/kick some Honda arseS;;;;;;;;;;;;

if it ws only that simple................................!

big john, this bike was at the 2 day claasic last week at Mount Ventoux France..........are we going to see a Scotish team next year...............? stu

Then the best value classic twinshock has got to be Spanish....................Ossa M A replique you can find good ones not messed about complete and parts can be had. From 650 qiud will buy you a good one and they will soon go up in price..........and you will get a lot out of this bike............. early monts up to 1973 but you may have to pay more for a nice example but you'l love it to bits in the sections if you set it up right................ model 49 or 80 bul, good ones are hard to find but you'l enjoy restoring, one parts are off the shelf and better than putting moey in the bank.......LETS FACE IT WHAT COUNTRY TOOK TRIALING BY THE GOOLIES AND SPAT OUT 3 BIKES THAT TOTALLY DOMINATED THE SPORT FOR 30 YEARS...................... SPANISH CLASSIC TRIALS BIKES, someone should right a book on the subjct......... As for your TL's ask yourself 'would you buy a Honda car'.....................if the answer is yes then start looking at mz's......................

Are we talking best value classic............. or best value winner.................best value rare......... best value collectable or best value tricked up twinshocked....................prices range from 350 quid to 6000 and we won't bother with the pre 65 or pre 67 or pre 72 class.....................

Any results yet for the first day? (sidecars)
