from the July 1988 issue of MBAction.... Wish I had this puppy hanging on my living room wall.... Part 4 came out back-azzwards.. Start at the bottom of the post and read your way UP..... Sorry, but I couldn't get it to align correctly....
one more after this one.... This post consists of 3 seperate "crops'.. I could not get them to come out aligned in the "attach images" box.. You'll just have to figure this puzzle out....
I'll go back and fix part 4 after i post this one..... all the "cropping" really SUX..... But, ya won't be able to read the words clearly if I just do full page posts..... Too much fun....

Hehe, that's funny. I was going to write before... I have it hanging on my living room wall. The magazine that is.
Here's a current day pic of the bike in that test issue. It resides safely with it's creator, and it's not going anywhere any time soon. Trust me, I tried.
else when I noticed the Trimble on the cover.. This same issue also has a write-up on the Brodie Romax and Specialized Stumpjumper Epic (carbon fiber)..... I may scan/post one/both of them in a few days.... All the cropping is gettin' kind of old though.. Oh well, for now I'll keep posting articles.... Short days.. Long nights.... No life...

...without hijacking the Trinble thread, I would LOVE to see that Brodie Romax review. Please post it!
I've got an old Bicycle Guide review of an early Trimble that I'll upload as soon as I get near a scanner.
just a pic from the MBA Oct.1990 issue... Does anyone even remember trials bikes... I saw a pic of a late 80's Yeti trials bike,too ...no seat post (hole).. too cool......

cool! as luck has it, i have both that magazine AND a trimble frame kicking around. that original (non triangulated bb) version must have been pretty noodly - the production frame is a flexy flyer as it is. that magazine brings back some memories for sure. paul brodie built some sweet frames back in the day.
Wow, look at that guy grabbing a buttload of lever in that last pic. Times have changed...
