onzaboyjake Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 As the title says. My local bike shop sells some Da Bomb trials bikes (20") and as im a bit low on trials knowledge i would like to know please if anybody has one and there thoughts on them as i dont want to splash out all my cash and find out ive brought something thats totally not worth what i payed for after ive saved up for so long. Also if anybody has had any bad experiences in the past with Da Bomb trials bikes. My budget isnt exactly that big for my 1st trials bike and i dont want to buy something im goin to end up disliking. I have never seen many Da Bomb's and just thought i would have a quick check up on here what they're like as they dont seem too popular.Cheers!!Jake.

0zzy Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 get an onza had mine for 5 months and is still goin strong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamAllen Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 (edited) Aren't team maguras a koxx trick basically? but yeah if your going to get a da bomb thats the only one worth getting.. And although people say onza's are better i found that most da bombs come with sealed hubs which is why I'd go for one aswell because when i was starting out on my t-bird and then t-master i just raped cones and hubs.CheersAdam Edited October 15, 2007 by econtrol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingkopity Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 hi mate. i bought my lil brother a team magura at christmas. the freewheel died straight away, the back wheel doesnt stand up to much but overall i (and he) got on with it. reminds me of the old jumpin jack... while your just getting started its fine. but as you progress youll find that bits wont keep up with you. and to be fair.. onzas arent that much better. so id say its just a case of preference. hope that helps.

kieronread Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 I've been looking around on ebay (as you do...) and saw that da bombs get more money than other starter bikes such as the likes of Onza t-birds, t-vees, missions etc so they must be good right?

Gavyn. Posted October 17, 2007 Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 what do da bombs cost these days? I started on one and it really is the best thing ever to start on not the shitty attempt at long and low one though i'm talking about the old school white or orange one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Dark Posted October 19, 2007 Report Share Posted October 19, 2007 I actually havent heard all bad things about them.....for the price they seem reasonably specced...i'd still go for an onza thoughA side topic i know...but has anyone checked out their website?! the english is horrendous and the phrasing is so tacky it's untrueQuote: Are you ready to use Da Bomb to explode your ability? Now, it’s a about the time to show your mama “what you really got!!!”. With 9” of travel, she can take what you can dish out. To be honest I doubt you could handle her.Well our R&D department said we could tell you, but then we would have to kill you; and we just don’t have the budget to hire that many hits.it makes the US military camo look like strawberry short cake. ^^^ What a joke..... ^^^Sorry for the slight change of topic.....
