planetxzebdi Posted June 25, 2005 Report Share Posted June 25, 2005 Hi there people. Just need some advice on the next frame to purchase new/second hand. Whats good and strong, cause i just seem to just break them! sad.gif Ive heard that the 05 t-rex is good and i like the look of the pitbull. So what do you people think? Cheers alot, Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hulltrialser Posted June 25, 2005 Report Share Posted June 25, 2005 id go for the rex cheaper than a pitbull and just as strong. Hope this helped. Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMunn Posted June 25, 2005 Report Share Posted June 25, 2005 Echo and zoo! are pretty indestructible, try and get yourself one of those, or look for the new onza t-rex like you said, you could also think about something made from steel, they are pretty hard to break.

oakley Posted June 25, 2005 Report Share Posted June 25, 2005 (edited) out of the pitbull and the rex i would say the rex, because they look juat about the same and the rex is cheaper, just as strong, and if you take the paint off it you would mistake it for a pitbull!! joE! :D Edited June 25, 2005 by oakley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomN Posted June 25, 2005 Report Share Posted June 25, 2005 HERE T-Rex for sale........... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vasil Posted June 26, 2005 Report Share Posted June 26, 2005 Buy Echo or Toxsin if you like long bikes....if not you may choose something made from steel: like Norco,Leeson,Curtis...:D I think depends on the money a lot... thetrialsinshop.com it's BC,Canada based but cheap shop.

Trials Punk Posted June 26, 2005 Report Share Posted June 26, 2005 Judging my your name you did have a PX. Cracked it? Lol. If I was you i'd invest in a leeson 26" or 24". Amazing frames, you can make them ride how you want to with the custom geometry. Really good service from clive. Its £400 for the frame which isn't cheap but considering that the PX might have cost you around £350 for £50 you get steel, custom geometry, custom paintjob, free seat post and BB. Awsome stuff.

Waynio Posted June 26, 2005 Report Share Posted June 26, 2005 or if you want something to still be able to ride street on and natural too why dont you just buy the peoples Favourite the "Koxx Levelboss 1065" which this year has a new 1070 wheelbase and feels extremly streety yet still shifts about as easy on the natural stuff?????? The echo and zoo stuff is in destructable/and well made but every other post has the same in, i had a pitbull and felt the b/b was way too low, and personally the echo head angles are a tad tight they need to be a degree slacker (imo) t-rex is more or less same as coustellier but 5 tonnes instead of 3lbs. its all about what riding you do, i think people wanting new frames should define what style of riding they do? if they ride natural or street? what sort of things they prefer? sidehops hooks gaps etc etc, long bikes for most things but when you want to have fun on the street its virtually impossible on a 26" long barge style bike just as i found with my 1100 levelboss, put it on the natural and you cant loose, its just awsum, the new levelboss 1065 feels alot different to the old one, being much stiffer, feels streety and very movable.
