Dan6061 Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 T-pros aren't shit mate. I second that. And if you're going to say something is shit, give a reason why you think that at least! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Cox Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 right T-pros are the best begginer bikes out there FULL STOP :D missions suck because: Geometry isnt trials friendly components are weak and will not last! Really difficult to upgrade (especially the 1.5 headtube!) they feel like your riding a sack of shite Prodigy = Baad T-pro = Good Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
granty Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 missions are shit they are so stiff and they snap REALLY easy :sleeping: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lankyri Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 i have to say what my mind is thinkin i have seen lots of t-pro's snap or crack, well the new ones any way and mission arent the best trials bike either appart from the reefer haha my first trials bike, failing that my friend go for a onza t-vee or a t-bird same as the prodigy but better spec i think hope this helps you but if you do buy this prodigy i wouldnt go over 200 there 350 brand new i believe arent they Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalopS Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 You only hear of more t-pros snapping because there are many many many more out there than missions. Though that doesnt prove missions would snap more but just think about how many are sold comepare to t-pro's Ive riden both. The T-pros nicer to ride. Some last a few months some have been found to last 2 years so its just shit luck if your cracks Thats just like all frames though koxx's crack but if you had the money you wouldnt buy a mission over a koxx right? Though koxx levelboss and t-pros are pritty much exactly the same so urm..............ONZA T-PRO!!!! hint hint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 Has everyone forgotten how utterly, amazingly well Ben Slinger used to ride his T-Pro? I know it's not long, low and silver, but c'mon people. Ask if the Mission has the 1.5" head-tube. If it does, ditch the piece of shite. You'll have virtually no choice of fork unless you fancy a 6" travel single crown sus fork... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joshywa Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 They aint shit at all Ive got a one as Ive got a new bike now and I learnt perferctly on them Id say t-pros are shit aswell this mission is quite light and good for begginers trust me they are weak !!! i snapped 2 mission prodigy frames in 2 weeks :sleeping: both on the chain stays, add to that the fact they charge £120 pounds to upgrade to magura's when you buy the bike new and you've got nice little list of reasons why not to buy one... also man on a mission is right if you want to upgrade one you either have to buy bmx parts (rear hub) and cant change your forks without £40 easton shims to go in the headset or a fsa reducer headset which now makes a tidy litle 4 reasons why not to get one i'd go on but i think ive proved my point already B) <--- satisfied grin !!!!!

emery Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 I say t-pro are crap as they feel like shit they heavy as anything the bb and pedals are crap you might aswell find a bike on a ebay or something . get a better bike than a t-pro unless youve got extra cash then buy a t-pro frame and ask tarty bikes to put the t-mag spec on it . :sleeping: toby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do not feel like shit and they are NOT heavy. Then you totaly contradict yourself by saying to buy a t-pro frame and put a different spec on it. Sort it out.

SuperDeathMonkey Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 Stay away from the Mission. My brother has one and it has been nothing but trouble, peices just fall off. If you're just starting trials, then I doubt you will need to worry about a frame that might snap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emery Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 shut up you vaggot a t-pro frame with a different spc on it ain't a t-pro and I have my own views. I dont like you many others probaly do and they are heavy compared to my bike and they do feel shit once again these are my views. toby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da-bomb-boi Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 i bought a mission for £90 of a wee lad from up north last year in feb, and so far i havnt craked it or messed it up in anyway apart form the forks. now im 6ft 2/3" and bout 13 stone of pure beast and im the harshes shitest rider in the world but this bike has suite me own to a tee because its soo cheap it didnt matter if i smashed it up or scrapped it or did whatever to it, but ihavnt had any problems at all with it. and as for upgrades ive upgraded the fors stuk a maggie on the bakc ghanged bars and brakes and stem and alsoconsidered putting a front free-wheel on it (which can be done i just spent the money on booze :) lol). so basicaly my point is mate if uve not got alot of money and you arnt a very good rider then buy it, but i wudnt offer him any more than 150 MAX depending on what condition it is in though.

Ash-Kennard Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 Like hell Is It lighter than your bike, I've seen you on yours. T-pro's just as good a spec as the T-mag and Its lighter, not sure how nice they both feel because I'm not used to either (stock rider). If you are on about the old skool style T-pro I would agree, but your not so shut the hell up! ash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Beck Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 i must say that i hate all missions and 'da bombs' and any other crappy trials make. Plus t-pros are well ace and are not heavy and ive had mine for 1 and a half years and running fine. I have to agree about the BB and cranks but you would get exactly the same on a mission.:) cheers lewis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
