Ross produced the Trials 168 bike in 1997 and can be classified as a Trials bicycle, this exact model costs in american market arround $1,299.95.
Ross Trials Trials 168 can be found in a few colors, among these colors Blue anodized .
This bike is equiped with Front: 26 x 2.10" Maxxis tires and DT stainless steel spoke wheel while the rims are manufactured by Aluminum doublewall, 32-hole. Ross equiped this exact model with Magura Hydraulic HS22 brakes, Magura Race-Line levers braking system and Shimano Deore XT hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Ross used 7005 aluminum, oversize material for the frame. Aluminum high strength material is used on the handlebar of this Trials 168 to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of Club Roost Trials.
For the smoothest biking experience Suntour XC Comp with Rock Ring, 24 teeth is used on this bicycle linked to Shimano CN-HG70 chain that is easily replaceable as stated by Ross, the whole system is connected to a high reliability Grip Shift SRT-800 X-Ray gear shift levers.
