Wow... now he's gone and done it. Gazza says he's got a new bike... picked it up from Manly Cycles this arvo he said.

He didn't mention any brands, but looking at their site, this sounds closest match to his description:

Not sure that's the one I would have chosen... but still if he's happy, that's the main thing Eye-wink

....relaxed upright geometry....such a plush seat ..should be good for Terry Hills
and the price is probably good...he should be worried about getting good replacement components though...

showing him bouncing on both front and rear wheels..........in their kitchen. Absolute classic.

Sorry don't know how to upload the vid to the computer to share but next time you see me I'll show it

i'm guessing thats not as easy as he makes it look? or are you just able to do that the minute you step on a trials bike?

In fact that is years of practice from someone that "once held the unofficial UK record for the number of rear wheel bounces on a bike"

Not sure how official that was but he said it with a straight face.
