Default Negatives of nimbus trials?


For about 170 $, and they ship very cheap.

I was surprised to find this, as I thought only UDC had them. AEB is
sparse on details, but the picture looks identical to the 215 $ ISIS on
UDC.

That's not the trials, it's the weird pseudo-street-freestyle thing
that I wouldn't really consider buying because of the frame.

I'm about 6', the only Con I see in that frame is that the seatpost is
22.2, they tend to bend if you land the wrong way, but, It should be
allright for you, and the tube is a little small for me. I'd like the
frame to be 340mm instead of 300,

That is SWEET!

I don't really like the udc logo on the rim but that's very close to my
ideal flatland uni!

And From AEB

I bought, along with a bunch of other forum riders, a KH 20 from AEB
last year for 368 $ delivered. They are a reputable company, and often
do sell good stuff at well under retail.

I am sure it would be a good idea to email AEB first, for one thing,
they will often sell things for under advertised price if you ask.
They could tell you for sure if it was the ISIS model, etc.

UDC has an excellent selection, but except for sales, will charge you
top dollar usually.

The pictures of the products are identical. I am not surprised by the
AEB discount. IMHO they are the same thing, but email to be sure first.

That's still not a uni I would buy, and certainly not for trials.
