wigs_06 Posted February 5, 2006 Report Share Posted February 5, 2006 hi i would go for the t rex ride a lot better and look better go for the t rex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeCottTrials Posted February 5, 2006 Report Share Posted February 5, 2006 well the t-rex is a long frame which means that it will be good for sidehops, taps, gaps etc but will be hard to manual and such. ive got a t-raptor at the moment and i mostly do stuff i should do on a long bike but its doing me proud. I think youd be fine either way but what do you enjoy doing? if its manuals and spins get a t-raptor if its gaps and ups go for a t-rex or if its a bit of both i'd get the t-raptor. Hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kb_trialer Posted February 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2006 it will be mainly for comps and natural riding with some street use, so it will be getting up and down things and hopping and sidhopping ( when learnt ).it will also be my first 26" bike which i forgot to mention earlier!!!keith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simpson Posted February 5, 2006 Report Share Posted February 5, 2006 if you want to choose between the 2 then SIMPLY it is the T-rex dont think that there will be too much dispute there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kb_trialer Posted February 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2006 is there a big difference in the frame length and how long are they both???keith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theone2be Posted February 5, 2006 Report Share Posted February 5, 2006 I haven't ridden the T-Raptor yet but my mate rides a T-Rex and he loves it, rides amazing aparently, if i had the choice I would go for that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike Posted February 5, 2006 Report Share Posted February 5, 2006 get the T-rex spec 1, it's not a lot more expensive than the T-raptor, the T-rex is like the 26" equivilant of the T-pro in the quality, and shape, i'd deffo go fo the T-rex. if it's your first 26" you don't know if you like it, so why not keep an eye out for one on here, and then if you decide you don't like 26", you don't loose as much, also if you do like it, it still gonna be cheaper...Mike!!!

wilky_mod_legend2 Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 Hi,Out of the two it has to be the T-REX!!!, its rides nicley, and my mate owns sidehops on it, so its a nice bike for sidehops, not sure about the taps, as he backwheels 10 inch over bar no tap lol. T-REX imo.CheersWilky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drumhitter Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 Hi all,I've just won a 2004 model T-rex frame and am wondering if I've made the right decision, it's the one at the bottom of the page here http://www.onza.com/site_files_flash/bikes_stock_flash.htmhope that link works, anyway I'm 6 feet 2 and hope I've bought the right frame, I'm told that longer frames are better for taller people, so would I have been better with one of the new T-rex's? (at the top of the page)please someone help me!!! Feel free to PM me with any ideas you have....ThanksAnt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
