turning my dual sport into a trail and hill climber!

Recently picked up a pulse adrenaline 125 trail/commuter bike for peanuts.
decided I'm going to use it for trail riding and a bit of tarmac hill climbing.

guaranteed to be the slowest bike out there but should be a laugh.
progress so far:-

Cheers Kennon,

The rims are still 17inch front and rear and the front therefore looks a little small and I think unbalances the look of the bike.
I'm intending to fit something more tarmac orientated on these rims and pick up an 18 inch rear and 21 inch front wheel and put some proper dirt tyres on those.
that way a quick wheel swap will cover both options.

Hi,

will probably put tarmac tyres on it for now to get it thorugh the mot.
