the judge Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 Had a Base TA20 for a bit under a year. Hardly ever went on it though and when I did all I did was bunnyhop. Then I got an Echo Control and I've hardly put it down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anzo Posted March 14, 2006 Report Share Posted March 14, 2006 T-pros are quite bad for cracking aren't they? I have heard quite a bit about them cracking, i found my cousin's t-pro really nice to ride though.Although you hear a lot about them cracking, they're a really popular bike. A lot of people have owned a T-Pro because they're low cost frames and yet still carry a 'decent' standard.Every frame in the world cracks, its just a matter of time. Bad news travels faster than good, everyone is quick to point out a bikes bad points, but only occasionally do you hear the good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAB Posted March 15, 2006 Report Share Posted March 15, 2006 (edited) My firts bike was a 12" bmx (don't remember wat one) i was 3.. it was red... and i rode the thing of everything The first bike i rode trials on (circa 1996) was a old steel 15" gt (it might have been a tequesta) it had a u-brake on the rear and a altus 3 ring chain set with the 2 big rings ground off to make a bash ring!!!!!!Had it about 5 months till it snaped... Look how far trials has come since then............ Edited March 15, 2006 by DAB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(helped)...cheresHi mate, Do you think that the t-mag was good? The reason i am asking this is i am thinking of getting a t-mag 2005 spec1 or a zona zip with a t-pro build both the same price (£499.) I have got a t-bird at the moment so which do you think i would be better of with to help improving my riding.Thanks in advance Allen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

king_kennythe1st Posted March 17, 2006 Report Share Posted March 17, 2006 (edited) well i used to try ride trials on a bmx about 94 ish when the only trials bikes u could buy were montys and they only sold them at motorcycle trials shops, well some like rathmells.got a GT palomar,upgraded the cranks and put a bashring on, DMR ring thing. dropped off a 4 ft wall and the back wheel buckled in half so built a new back wheel (mavic). still got the bike somewhere, that was my first semi trials bike.after 5 years out i bought a t bird at start of this year to test the water again 2 weeks later bought a T-mag and have now replaced practically every part on the bike apart from the brakes Edited March 17, 2006 by king_kennythe1st Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
