Yep Trials bikes are awesome. The balance and control that you can learn by cross-training on one is unbelievable. I always thought they looked stupid and wouldn't be much fun, then I rode one!
By far one of the most challenging things I've done on 2 wheels. I've ridden all types of terrain and bikes, lots of MX, trails, flat-track, and sport bikes. None of them give you a feeling quite like throwing a leg over a trails bike. It will probably be the next bike I buy when my R-1 is paid off.
If you get a chance to try one do it!
A few pics from when I tried it.
