Nuke Bowel Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 (edited) Hi, I had a go on a friends onza 20inch, I picked up a couple of things quickly so i'm thinking of buying one, i'm looking between £200 - £600 for a 26inch preferably. If any of you know of a good rig for this amount I would appreciate hearing from you. Cheers Guys Luke, Wales Edited February 24, 2006 by ilukeee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urpedigreechumdog Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 Best thing to do would be keep on browsing the forum, post as you feel necessary. You'll get validated sooner or later then you can access the for sale and wanted section. Build a bike from scratch by buying other peoples second hand bits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

watto Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 (edited) you could get a spec 1 onza t-rex for £500 here Edited February 24, 2006 by watto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaffacakes Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 you could get a spec 1 onza t-rex for £500 hereIm not a stock rider but a realy good starter bike seems to be the Onza T-rex. You get a fair bit for your money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Greenthumb Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 If you picked up stuff real quick on a mod would it not be best to stick to a mod?Just a thought.Look in fs/wanted for a good secondhand echo/zoo etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarky Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 Look in forum or go on www.supercycles.co.uk they sell a large range of onza mods i think a t-pro or something would be good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bolty Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 Well if you were looking for a mod i would say T-pro or a Zona Zip but because i dont ride 26 inch i wouldnt know mate, sorry Nick .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jared Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 If you picked up stuff real quick on a mod would it not be best to stick to a mod?Yeh listen to him.If you feel good on a mod get a mod...You know it makes sense Well if you do decide to go mod,the t-pro looks a good bet ive never rode one but lots do so they cant be bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan6061 Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 Ever thought of building up your own rig? If not, I'd stay stick with mod, as you've picked up on it pretty well. T-Pro should do just fine. No upgrades will be needed for a loong time. Except wear and tear stuff, brake pads, tyres, tubes etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shucksmith1 Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 yeh MODs are the future. and from what people have said on hir it seems lik the zona zip is the sh*t. id go 4 1 of them then pimp it out abit wid your remaining cash.

roby James124 Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 look on ebay and here you mite get something cheap other wise get a t-rex they are really cool rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Rainbird Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 Don't forget that if you found it easier to pick stuff up on a mod, but are looking for a larger bike to take things further, then there's the Zoot 24" - Full build available from www.tartybikes.co.uk and within your budget. However, options such as the Zip and the T-Rex make for good alternatives also within the price range Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shucksmith1 Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 yeh i 4got about the zoot i realy wana go on 1 2 see how they ride. has any 1 got 1???matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ding_dong Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 stop using "txt tlk" it makes it 10 times harder to read and you will never get validtaed. Also stop using numbers instead of words, it will help to get you validated quicker.eg. wnt 2 da shops= I went to the shops.you get the idea? Sorry to have a go but its for your own sake. Oh yeah the post.....A t-pro is a good starter bike so i would recomend that if your riding mod. (the stock riders have an extra 6" to make up for some thing else )Stay clear of the t-mag its rubbish . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattB Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 if your looking for a 26 go for t-rex spec 1 not that i've ridden them but i've heard a lot of good comments about them. if you do decide to go mod then you could get an onza t-pro or if you can push your budget a monty 221pr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basher Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 not sure were you live mate but go into somewhere like aire valley who stock a range of trials bikes and tell them your situation and they should have no problems letting you have a go on a bike and then see if 20 is what you want or 24 or 26. like others have sed t-pro is the best beginer 20' i had one and they are a great bike to start on. and a t-rex seems a good starting point for 26' a well. but the best way is to get to a shop and try the diferent bikes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Oliver Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 Have a look at this LINKY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simpson Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 i wouldnt get a Saracen but if your looking for a bike with brand new upgrades on it worth doing but the long way but hasnt cost me more than £650 now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urpedigreechumdog Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 (edited) Don't get soemthing brand new!! You'll regret it. Just get some good second hand gear.Second hand full build maybe? Saves messing around with waiting for parts etc. However with a custom build it's how you want it to be exactly. Hmmmm... up to you but don't bother with a whole brand new bike, it'll lose it's value too much.
