grahamjayzee Posted November 7, 2008 Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 I'm with you there! Nothing suits my style like a Beta and as such I'm willing to forgive many things! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nathanharold1987 Posted November 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 Ok. I think my mind is set on a montesa cota 315r. In terms of maintenece/repair its not a problem as i can fix most things. what sources are there for purchasing a trials bike (other than e-bay)? Any other decent websites that advertise bikes. I am in the North East so any reccomendations for local places to buy would be apprichiated cheers nathan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manofsteele Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 Check out the classifieds in the back of Trials and Motocross News. There's usually a Mont or two there each week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcbrewer Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 (edited) I recently went from a 2005 GasGas 300 to a 2000 Cota 315r and am happier than ever. I really like the suspension on the Montesa and I find the power to be much more controllable. You'll find the front end on the Monty is a little heavier but IMHO that is good because it means the bike is balanced better between front and rear. I wrote up a detailed comparison between the two. If you'd like to read it you can find it here. Good Luck, John STRA Edited November 17, 2008 by JCBrewer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
