Muel Posted July 31, 2007 Report Share Posted July 31, 2007 (edited) My bro might be buying a T-Mag from a lad who lives up the road.It has had the bars, stem and freewheel upgraded to Echo tough bars, Hifi Stem, and ENO ffw.The rear wheel bearings are dead, but with my clever mind I have worked out that Tarty charge £15 for a new one. The wheel needs a truing sesh.I have just rebuilt it for my mate, so I know that this is all that is wrong with it, apart from the pound coin dent in the side of the down tube.Oh, and it needs rear pads, grips, pedals, booster, bars because these flat bars are terrible.My Bro went to his house, started counting out £250 for it, and his Mum stopped them saying it has cost him over £600 and he has only had it since November.Whats it worth really, and do we go for it.

Adam-Griffin Posted July 31, 2007 Report Share Posted July 31, 2007 to my knowledge the T-mag is cheaper than the T-pro brand new and T-pro's of that age dont go for much more than £250 second hand so id say its a fair deal cosidering the upgrades and the fact that T-mag' are soooooo easy to snap but from what your saying the guys mum needs top keep her snout out of what dosent concern her !Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simpson Posted July 31, 2007 Report Share Posted July 31, 2007 250's probably a fair enough price for it... maybe slightly high, considering the mods about right i would say Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted July 31, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2007 Well he has let my brother borrow it until his parents decide on a price. It needs a new rear wheel, big time. It is egged, the bearings are shagged out and even my skilled hands couldn't get the rim true again.The bashplate mounts are also mashed up because he ran it without one, so you can't put one on.The front brake won't adjust the bite point unless you tip the bike right up and shake it around, I found that out making the pedals spin round and round. The pedals, grips, bars, brake pads and rear wheel need replacing. So even if it still £250, the answer is no now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
