What Dol U Think Of A Monty 221pro


Hendy

Recommended Posts

Monty prs are decent bikes but you should set your standards a bit higher and get a second hand monty ti. I've never rode on a monty pr but i have heard a lot of negative comments being said about it and apparently they are quiet heavy bikes. So i would say don't go for the monty pr but its entirely up to you. Its better to get more peoples point of view before you make your mind up though.

i have heard nothing but good things about them and seeing as the 2006 version has sold out all over the world then im asumeing they are good. you will have to wait though till the 2007 221pr is out as it isn't possible to get this years anymore.

It's a f**kin beast.

Ryno's opinion is directly opposite to mine. My bike is very light, the only problem I can see is at the bottombracket/chainstay area there isn't as much re-inforcement for the bash guard mount's as is on the Ti's.

Yeh, I think the full bike's a bit pricey, but the frame alone was an absolute steal at £150 brand new, I wonder how much the 07's (frame only) are going to be when they come out.....

DONT BE SILLY

I got the monty 221pr06

standard spec-picked it up with 2 fingers

i m pretty sure monty looks at weight as a main issue

*after their crazy weight reduction on the new 221Ti*

anyways

monty 221pr 06 is amazing (Y)

no dout

but on standard spec

you ll need to change the freewheel

longer handle bar (my opinon)

and thats it untill you break parts then upgrade :D

so its a deffo yes for getting the bike (Y)(Y)

Right enough? The bars are the same as come on the 221Ti, and I have to say I absoutley love mine, I seriously can't see myself ever using any other bars for trials again, £44 might seem pricey, but they really are premium!

yer i agree with the fact that its a great bar to use :D

i just prefer longer bars :P

because my shoulders are wider

so yer if they made a longer bar :-

it would be perfect (Y)

We have 2 prs, a 05 & 06 & they are both lighter than my ti,s probably because of the hope brakes etc on the ti,s! :P

Still brilliant bikes & well worth the money, Imo they don't ride to much different to the ti either. (Y)

Wow, you can give abuse over the 'net, congratulations.

However, I'll be more impressed when you can spell your own name, or count to 10.

How old are you, 13, 14 at a push perhaps?

Damn I'd hate to be you...

Edit: Thanks Mark, I feel a lot safer now...

And sorry for getting a bit lairy... :-
