Jaffacakes Posted January 6, 2006 Report Share Posted January 6, 2006 (edited) So are you planning to give us any reasons why they are so rubbish or just your one line topic with top notch punctuation?

matt rushton Posted January 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2006 Reason why I wrote that topic is because the night I wrote was the night I snapped my mates so he made me pay for it so i lost £270 just doing a 4ft drop on it. thats why Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaffacakes Posted January 6, 2006 Report Share Posted January 6, 2006 A good mate you have there. You can get a crash replacement for £200 by the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JT! Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 (edited) Reason why I wrote that topic is because the night I wrote was the night I snapped my mates so he made me pay for it so i lost £270 just doing a 4ft drop on it. thats whyIf someone was on my bike when they broke something, i'd be somewhat happy that i wasn't on it at the time as i could have hurt myself, becuase lets face it, if it didn't brake when you did that drop it would have broken 2 days later. Therefor making you pay for it was down right stupid, especially if he's your 'mate'.Also, like said above, he could have easily got a half price replacement and therefor you've just been ripped off yourself.Not only that, but there isn't a frame out there that has never been broken. (Bar the python, but one'll go someday). Edited January 7, 2006 by JT! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 They are the same length as t-pro's and t-mag's etc etc. Nein.Stays are shorter, as is the centre-BB-to-centre-top-of-headtube measurement. Least mine was. My T-Lite Long was the shorter back end with a longer front, but that was more of a one-off frame.Liked the T-Lite L, didn't like the T-Lite. I rode a shitload better when I went to a T-Pro. Saying that, I'm over 6ft so short mod frames aren't ideal for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koxx1 Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 (edited) i have never owned one and don't ever intend to, i have heard alot of bad things about them but i have also heard alot of good things about them so im not really sure what to think they can't be that weak surly my koxx has snapped before and its been rewelded and its still going thankfully Edited January 7, 2006 by koxx1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 Reason why I wrote that topic is because the night I wrote was the night I snapped my mates so he made me pay for it so i lost £270 just doing a 4ft drop on it. thats whyHe sounds like a nice guy your 'mate' i don't see how it's your fauly that it broke unless you like intentionally landed it wrong like both wheels a the same time, and forced your weight down on the pedals as you landed (which i'm guessing you didn't) where did it actually brake? and how long did your 'mate' own it for and does he do any drops, and gaps etc? or does he use if for a road bike? even if he did charge you surley you could have came to some sort of negotation about it where you both pay half of you get a second hand one for him seems the one you broke wasn't brand spanking new.No offence to your 'mate'Mike!!!

JT! Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 Nein.Well mines the same as the t-pro and the t-mag i've measured against. The forks will add a bit though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wright Pads Posted January 8, 2006 Report Share Posted January 8, 2006 Mini you've only just started to use yours more and yeah you getting good but abuse it some now.T-lite was built to do trials okay end of. The look unsilghtly, they are too short and feel too thin and cheap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wez Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 I think the t-lite is a very good "20 bike to ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
