BenLeacock™ Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 Look for onza's. T-pro's, don't go for the new model comes with a really crap spec. Maybe try looking at the 05-06 ones T-birds, same don't look at the new ones look for the older ones Any second hand deng bike should be pritty nice as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirt jumper jake Posted November 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 yeah im watching a t vee and a t bird on ebay im not sure wether to buy a bike the put a t pro frame on it though lolhttp://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Blue-Mission-Prodigy...1QQcmdZViewItemthis any good?

NileBrown™ Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 NO. Not a mission prodigy - if I were you id stay clear from them! haha - well reason being they use 14mm axels so new hubs will have to be bmx ones, if you want new forks you can't as they use a much thicker steerer tube and heaset compare to the standards 1 1/8. Its really not worth it mate, buy onza - its going to be better in the long run Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreaming of a monty Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 I'd recommend an onza t-comp, really nice to ride. I started on one and it was great to learn on and it stillsuits me fine today. Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oli Smith Posted November 26, 2007 Report Share Posted November 26, 2007 yeah im watching a t vee and a t bird on ebay im not sure wether to buy a bike the put a t pro frame on it though lolhttp://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Blue-Mission-Prodigy...1QQcmdZViewItemthis any good?I've got a mission prodigy, Don't go there mate. If you can get an onza ,get one!! Possibly T-pro. But whatever you do make sure you've got decent brakes e.g hs33, hs11, I'd say hs33. Do not get v-brakes!! You'll regret it.Oli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking about going vee's since riding my mates gu with vee's..But the vee's that come with a Mission prodigy are not going to be ultimates or xtr's are they ! Basically what he said is right, look for a bike with Magura's on, 70% of trials riders use magura's (So it says on the magura site) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I_RIDE_ECHO! Posted December 4, 2007 Report Share Posted December 4, 2007 I have a onza t-vee at the moment only until christmas! I upgraded to a t-comp but lets just say if you can snap a spoon you can snap one of them! Personaly i wouldn't bother with them, thats the old one im talkin about. Any way t-vee is a good starter bike i had mine for about two years i got hs33's on it and t-bird forks with four bolt mounts and i have got new zoo mounts also i bought front and rear drilled rims.I changed the rear one to 19" because they come with a standard 20 ". But i would say there not bad bikes obviously mine is now battered after 2 years of riding, but cant wait to get my ECHO at christmas!!wb chigs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
