Hello - Unfortunately, we don't have any rims or tyres in stock that would fit, sorry! They have been discontinued by Monty so we're unable to order any more in. Thanks, Mark

Can you have a 26 wheel and rim to fit this frame

Hi George - As the product description mentions, this can only be used with a 25" rear wheel, not a 26" rear wheel. Thanks, Mark

Can you use a jump bike frame for trials

Hi George - You can do this, although the stresses and strains put through trials frames differ from jump frames, so it may not last as long (especially the brake mounts). The geometry also won't be ideal, but for learning it is a cheap way into trials if you already have a jump bike. Thanks, Mark
