Thaddeuslionheart Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 Hi y'allFinally decided to invest in a proper trials bike after getting tired of pretending that my old GT with a tooth fairy and wide riser bars passes for one. I have narrowed my choice down to 2 ....I thinkOnza Tmag '08 for £650 or Echo lite for £850I am 6ft1 and I want to be comfortable on the frame geometry. right now I think my preference would be the Tmag although I think it is slightly shorter. Has anyone ridden these bikes and can give me a real verdict. or any advice on frame geomety for a lanky bugger like me?Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mista-neos Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 I think you should go for the echo light. I havnt ridden any of these bikes by the way.Hope this helped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Duck Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 Ridden both, owned one.In my opinion -The T-Mag is the nicer frame. However the spec on the echo lite is better.On balance I'd probably go for the echo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ConorXNT Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 If your willing to pay the £200 extra id go with the echo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thaddeuslionheart Posted July 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 so everybody says echo?If the Tmag has a nicer frame doncha thinkit would be better to start with the frame cos i can always upgrade other parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mexophilia Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 Go for the ECHO! The geo and specs is more important! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0zzy Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 (edited) if the onza frame rides nicer buy the t-mag, and perhaps a few "pimp" bits and fancy parts/upgrades to make them the same value. Edited July 21, 2008 by 0zzy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
