Start with something short. 1060-70 ish wheelbase would be fine. I'd highly recommend a short echo pure. My friend has one and it's mint.

err i just looked up the geo your right. 980 is too short even for starter. Long wheel base bikes are bad if your new to trials though. Err and u want stock, so ill just stop talking now hahaa

dont go down the custom line just yet

look at 20inch cheap bikes
that way if you like it you can soon upgrade
get a sarecan or onza i would the you can decide wether 20 or 26 inch is good for you

dont go expensive


and a little advice !!!!! dont give up...8-10 beginners give up because they say its to hard
stick it out and then love it mate
