lewiswolsey2009 Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 Looks like a brilliant buy, T Pro's are wicked bikes, how much did you pay for it ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gibbo8888 Posted August 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 200 delivered! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lewiswolsey2009 Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 200 delivered!Thats not a bad price IMO. Have you checked the frame properly for any cracks ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 All looks amazing for £200 mate.Only things I'd change would be the rear tyre and the bars, and maybe the front brake depending on how good it is, but it's a bargin for learning on.I paid £300 for a standard T-Pro, it snapped 6 weeks later, and before that it was shit the whole time, everything was set up wrong.

gibbo8888 Posted August 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 no cracks not even a dent just slight markings which you got to expect!The front brake is spot on, what do you think to the spec overall? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 For £200, f**king good. That rear tyre will hold you back before long, the bars are a personal choice but other than that it all seems good. I'd get someone whos good with trials bikes to check it over if you can, I normally rebuild my and my mate's new/second hand bikes when they arrive to grease everthing and check it's all sorted. You'd be amazed how little people grease on bikes, I once got an amazing spec bike second hand that had no grease at all on the slave mount bolts, stem bolts, axle bolts or top cap bolt.

Muel Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 (edited) Let me re-phrase for the peasants/pedants amongst us.You'd be amazed how few components owners actually don't add grese to on their bikes that they are supposed to add grease to on their bikes.

gibbo8888 Posted August 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 Right been riding and already wanting to upgrade on mi handle bars and front tyre does anyone have any ideas or know of anyone selling or wanting to swap? thankyou Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Morton Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 Right been riding and already wanting to upgrade on mi handle bars and front tyre does anyone have any ideas or know of anyone selling or wanting to swap? thankyouJust tilt the bar's forward ever so slightly. You might find it help's ever so slightly, I found it to help me when i tilted mine forward. Check tartybikes for some Tyre's, I recomend maxxis creepy crawler's. Also you may find you need a brake booster as through time strenth decreases on the frame and you start to get flex and getting a booster just stiffen's up you're frame.But great buy mate.

Pashley26 Posted August 17, 2009 Report Share Posted August 17, 2009 So let me get this straight, you've got two threads going saying you've got a new bike. But you haven't shown any photos or information outside of an ebay link ? Post some proper photos of the bike in your garden or something ?
