JoNnY__Mc Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 hey everyone, i've been trying to find out more about mods for about a month now as im figuring out what bike to get. now at first i was very interested in the t-pro, as its a mint bike, looks the part, has all the bits i need, and its a reasonably priced... so it tixed all of my boxes (on my imaginary checklist :P )... bar one :| it snaps... i have seen many of these bikes snapped in half... so with the t-pro out of the picture and the t-mag becoming very tempting i started looking around at peoples reviews on the bike... as you do to make sure that what ur about to pay 500 for, itsnt a pile of sh*t... so i look on google and find a few reviews, all seems good... might have to change the pads... new booster... grind on the rim and locktite the freewheel and so on... everything seems good... so i make my decision (N) :| and then i find some ass on here whos snapped one... :closedeyes: i just ignored the one ass whos snapped one and then continued to search through the useless posts of people bragging about snapping there t-pros and ?t-mags? and fiound that quite a few people have snapped there t-mags fairly quickly, as in like 3-5 months... and also one dick who did it in 3 weeks? :| come on people whats the deal with them? please let me know, are they good bikes? are they strong? or are they really as bad as people are making them out to be :- i want some opinions and also peoples past encounters with t-mags? are they really as they're making them out to be? if u have snapped one please reply and let me know how long you had it and whether u abused it... i dont wanna waste 500 so any help would be good before i go and buy it...

Lawnmowerman Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 I snapped mine in 5 weeks :closedeyes: They've fixed the problem now anyway so i don't think you'll be having any problems apart from the tin foil downtube and the chain rubbing on the seat stay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark W Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 The main problem was just the downtube bashguard mount getting forced through the frame. However, that's been rectified by using a gusset, so it's all fine now :closedeyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
