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.

I was looking for something .....

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...

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......
Some of us remember trials quite well, and are actually still quite involved with it. It's more popular than ever actually. Here's a modern day bike.

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.
