grantallsop Posted June 29, 2007 Report Share Posted June 29, 2007 The Dabomb looks better but i rode the 06 and they are horrid to ride it feels so low and hard to control, but i dont know what the new ones like it could be 10 times better.

But you can't buy anything off the forum yet because youre not validated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom_kernahan Posted July 2, 2007 Report Share Posted July 2, 2007 are you a beg? the da bomb is nice i had one they are nice to learn on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeperThanBlack Posted July 2, 2007 Report Share Posted July 2, 2007 I wouldn't touch the Saracen with a ten foot pole. The Da Bomb has a waaaay better spec, especially as it has Maggie HS33s. If the Saracen is anything like my old bike, it will fall apart in a matter of minutes. But I don't think there is much difference in weight, if the frame is made from the same aluminium then usually its around the same weight. And unless I have read the post wrong, the first bike is made of steel. You'll yank your arms off trying to bunny hop, then again do anything, on that thing.Another suggestion is to look at Onza bikes. If your just starting, they are great. Some of them come in around your price range. I gots myself an Onza T-Pro.Hope this helps! Beans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikemad786 Posted July 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2007 yup it does help but the saracen is not made out of steel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeperThanBlack Posted July 3, 2007 Report Share Posted July 3, 2007 yup it does help but the saracen is not made out of steel? Sorry bit of a grammatical error I just realised. I meant the bike that you have been offered, the Monty X- Hydra. Steel will be stronger, but it is not worth the weight if you are only just starting. Aluminium is still very strong, but a quite lot lighter.Sorry for the misunderstanding!Beans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikemad786 Posted July 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2007 so do you advise geting the saracen and geting rear magies on it later? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeperThanBlack Posted July 3, 2007 Report Share Posted July 3, 2007 so do you advise geting the saracen and geting rear magies on it later?Nooooo. Go for the Da Bomb. Way better build and spec. Plus it alredy has Maggie HS33's on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
