Hi!

I'm interested of getting in to trial. Currently I only ride singeltrack, and some cross country.
I have never ridden BMX or anything similiar.
What type och bike would be best for me?
I have looked around a little bit and found 2 bikes I think seems good and not too expensive and those are:
Echo Lite 2016 MK4 http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/20_inch_trials_bikes/echo_lite_2016_mk4/c10p11565.html
Echo Trial 2016 MK4 http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/24_inch_trials_bikes/echo_trial_2016_mk4/c50p11568.html

Is the 24" as good as a mod for pure trials moves since it has the same geo? And would it be worth to change to grippier tires on it if I want to ride in the woods?
I'm 175 cm (5ft 9in) tall and weigh 60 kg if that matters.

Would appreciate answers asap since the spring is coming and I can start riding my bikes soon. Smile Therfore I would like to order a new bike as fast as possible because the shipping time to my country can be up to a couple of weeks.
