MOSH Posted August 26, 2005 Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 Hi I am about 6ft and quite new to the trials scene. I find when i'm on top of a drop or something that my back is cramped and arched. Does anyone find that the standard T-pro is slightly too small ? The thing is when i'm actually thinking of it and straighten up i can do bigger gaps and much smoother drops. And finally my back aches aswell after most rides could this be a sign of possible future problems? If so what is the biggest mod frame you can get and how much does it cost? Cheers Josh.

Will Arnold Posted August 26, 2005 Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 the t-pro seem to suit you well imo, josh. but you could get a 1045 zoo python at 400 quid or maybe a python copy, they sell at around 230 quid i think... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan6061 Posted August 26, 2005 Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 You could try getting a Koxx Levelboss Long. Basically a Long T-pro..but Silver. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RicH_87 Posted August 26, 2005 Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 new zona is apparently 40mm longer wheelbase wise. but afterall, it's not really the whee base that determines how 'cramped' you feel. maybe buy a zoo stem. that should help. :closedeyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dai the Socket Posted August 26, 2005 Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 Be Individual, Get a Python :closedeyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poopipe Posted August 26, 2005 Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 get a try-all stem, they're nearly 6 feet long. you'll need some new bars on account of them having a 1 inch clampy bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOSH Posted August 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 Cheers lads, I think an upgrade of a stem and bars will be next. Especially due to my spacers and stem been so sharp and im always catching my knees on it ! :closedeyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simpson Posted August 26, 2005 Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 I don't really have much exp. with mod's but how about a zoo stem with riser bars? i know its not a new frame but a mod is still a mod and so will be short. if you angle the riser bars away from you should give you more room... hope i helped :closedeyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilly Posted August 27, 2005 Report Share Posted August 27, 2005 My T Pro felt too cramped so i got the koxx tryall replica bars and koxx stem......made it feel about a foot longer! :o :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MOSH Posted August 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2005 Well After buying a new rear wheel :blink: little bit of money ! Then I shall move on to the bars and stem. Cheers lads :o P.s Anyone selling a rear wheel for a mod, preferably a king or profile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davetrials Posted August 30, 2005 Report Share Posted August 30, 2005 You may feel craped, but it doesent mean you are, Dani comas rides a monty 20" there smaller than t poos plus hes like 6,2 or summet daft. Get your bars and stem sorted, monty risers and monty stem, is a nice low long combination, they should chnage the ride of your bike quite a bit.
