flipkickbs Posted July 22, 2006 Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 (edited) So many threads on this, but its the best starter mod bike money can buy ,as most of the forum would agree. Even nicer than the T-mag, which is the 'model up' Edited July 22, 2006 by flipkickbs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan-Gadd Posted July 22, 2006 Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 I have one and im more than pleased with it, it's a dream to ride very good starting/intermediate bike. The frame seems to be strong and well made as do most of the components, the only problem i have had with mine is the ACS freewheel that didn't last long. I got mine of ebay for 220 quid mint condition, there allways seems to be some going on there for a good price so check it out.

Bondy Posted July 22, 2006 Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 DO NOT BUY ONE!!!!!! mine broke falling on a wall they are rubbish they are ok to ride though p.s. don't buy oneNot every frame they bring out is going to be 100% perfect some may be faulty like yours and are going to break, you may be a fat git, who knows...when you say it 'broke' i assume you mean the frame, if so where abouts, how long did you have it for etc? Kinda pointless just saying there crap because yours broke and you didnt even bother saying how or when etc.I've had my t-pro since september 05', still in perfect working condition, few scratches which is normal its held up pretty well, had no problems with it, its really nice to ride and is a bargain for how much it costs.Good bike to spec up and eventually invest into a new frame after a while and you will have a pretty sweet bike (which is what i should be doing soon enough).

Havent got a clue what youre on about with the bars either but i assume if you snap a pair of bars it usually is the riders fault, ridden with them too much, done too many drops etc, stress marks then eventually snappage.

poopipe Posted July 22, 2006 Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 good luck with it.anyway - i've had my t-pro since july or august last year and it's fine. The only weak points are that ACS freewheels come undone a lot and that the forks/stem/bars are a bit on the heavy side. There's nothing you'd need to replace straight away in the standard spec at all.It seems pretty tough too - i missed a gap a couple months back and landed full weight on a rail with the middle of my downtube, there's a big dent but no sign of a crack appearing and the frame appears to have maintained it's original shape so i'm happy cos i was expecting the bugger to snap in half there and then.

Joe_Elding Posted July 22, 2006 Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 im not a tit and they are crap1) You ARE a tit.2) They ARENT crap, they are the BEST beginner bike available and the frame is easily on par with the big zoos echos etc.3) you ride a saracen mad, which doesnt put you in ANY position to disrespect t-pros. I mean look at mads for a start, THEN go on to how they ride, how weak they are, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egg Fried Rice Posted July 23, 2006 Report Share Posted July 23, 2006 i have a t-pro (this is my first bike) and its f**king minto! its a great bike to learn on. i find it very easy to control and learn the basics of trials and it will take you further into trials than any other first bike.BUY IT!JK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trials goose Posted July 23, 2006 Report Share Posted July 23, 2006 My pro is a beast it runs real smooth except for the bukled wheel but there light great to learn on....1 thing is that they are front end heavy so i grbed myself some new forks an was happy and dandy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The lemonade man Posted July 23, 2006 Report Share Posted July 23, 2006 I used to own a t-pro, was an amazing frame to ride, even with the crappy parts I had on it.Although, mine did end up cracked in 2 places Although it seems this is a reasonably rare occurance considering the amount of the frames ridden.Overall a great bike for beginners. Like every other topic made on these, I get the feeling that'll be the overall view. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
