Nacho-trials Posted July 18, 2008 Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 I like Onza T-Comp (08)!!Perfect to begin in the trialbike ^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve-winder Posted July 18, 2008 Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 i completely disagree about the monty. the onza t-comp is a completely better bike. just look at the specification comparisons for a start:the onza comes complete with tensile freewheel, magura hs33 brakes, drilled rims, kmc kool chain. all of which are strong, all round good parts.compared to the monty which has an acs claw freewheel, v- type brakes, a lower stength kmc z chain and plain aluminium rims.in my opinion paying the extra for the onza is definately worth while for the specification upgrade that you get. the onza has more potential to be a better bike as you progress your riding.yes it may be true that monty have been making trials bikes for over 30 years but onza also have allot of experience in the biketrials scene and have a better bike to offer for your money.if you are still unsure mate. i reccomend that you give adam at www.tartybikes.co.uk a call and i'm sure he will advise you on which is the better machine.steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt123456789 Posted July 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 Thanks steve for taking the time to write all that down for me. I am now glad to say i will be ordering my new onza t-comp tomorrow and will hope to come riding with some of you guys soon. hopefuly i will get taught some tricks, as ive heard all the trials bike community are very friendly.cheers matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callum-Luvs-Trials Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 Get validated and get a good secong hand bike instead of a brand new Onza You will be happier in the long run Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
