JT! Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 (edited) I'd go for the t-pro, i'm not very up on the montys, but i'm sure that it'll cost a hell of alot more than monty. Edited February 17, 2006 by JT! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trials_king_2005 Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 hi mate i have nothing agaisnt montys but i feel the t-pro is far supiror to the monty if you want a half decent monty you have to pay £800 odd but as for the t-pro you get great parts for £420 my mate has a t-pro and it rides awesome id go for the t-pro theres no upgraded needed.thanks tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watto Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 i'd go for the t-pro good setup ,easily upgradeable (not that you need to ) also i think that montys are very overated bikes and overpriced Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ash-Kennard Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 dont listen to them, its just that the trials world is bombarded by t-pros that they don't know any differentget the monty, light, short, look the bollocks, everyone will love you... and it wont be , just another t-pro you will be special (in a good way) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

watto Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 get the t-pro and the money you save from that you can upgrade some parts profile maybe or a front disc set-up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rickyb Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 Go for the monty it is a very, very nice bike i love my 04 version and it is a lot better than the t-poo and not many people have them so yeah go for the monty.rickyb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Oliver Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 I ride my mates T pro sometimes as you do swap bikes, & it rides like crapcompared to my Monty's. As for spending loads more for a decent monty youcan get a 221pr frame for £140 bargain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
granty Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 dont get a t-pro, compared to a monty there crap montys are awsome nice short light and flickable bikes and there is way to many people riding t-pros Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mat hudson Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 hmm, i prefere t pro's to be honest. unless your pretty small or love short bikes i would have thought it would hold you back. t pro's are awesome value for money too.

Mr Monty Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 (edited) Monty any day i have the 05 1 they are light strong pure sex on wheel's every thing u want it to be apart from cheap if u have the cash monty. Monty has changed my life i am now healthier stronger and my hair is longer thank's to monty YOU NO WHATS BEST Edited February 17, 2006 by Mr Monty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People who were 6ft+ have rode Monty's better than many people on here could ride a long koxx or something. Don't let people fool you into thinking that just because your tall/short, you need a long/short bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 I quoted your post as a typical example of many i've seen on this forum saying that monty's are too short/not ideal for taller people.Beside's I didn't say you said you have to be small. or short etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
