ZOO!PYTHON Posted September 26, 2006 Report Share Posted September 26, 2006 Hiya Mike, Sorry to hear about your t-comp! Lol! Anyway, to answer your question, no, not really. My friend has had two now; they dent very easily, bend, and eventually snapped his clean in half! If your on a budget i would recommend Zona Zip? Very good for the money. Hope this helps.Mat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-BAD Posted September 26, 2006 Report Share Posted September 26, 2006 t-pros are sturdy as fook, but if you have the money... get something better?echo lite perhaps? would be more suited to tht as it would be more like the tcomp then the tpro? i dunno your choice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike W Posted September 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2006 (edited) cool i think il look at the zona or zoo lol thanksoh would a t-pro last me for say til christmas because i only want it til then because im thinking of getting zoo python full build then Edited September 26, 2006 by t-comp-mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun H Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 Easily, but ask your parents if you can have it early. No point wasting money on a temporary frame you'll only have for a couple of months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downhill_rob2@hotmail.com Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 Iv had my T-pro frame for well over 1 year now, nearing 1.5 years! maybe more!and it hasnt even cracked! the bash guard has snapped off, but thats it really lol.They are real nice frame and ride really nice.I can easly say without a doubt that they are stronger than the T-comp frames.They are fairly strong, and only weaken if your a real shit and harsh rider lol.Why do you want to do drops more than 6 foot anyways? drops are gay as fook, no wonder you are snapping frames... maybe learn how to ride properly, rather than just doing drops?Peace out.

Chris Elson Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 HiMy mate brought a T-pro of his mate and there was one little dent in the downtube, after about 5 months the top of the down tube cracked. But i still think they are good for beginners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hendy Posted September 30, 2006 Report Share Posted September 30, 2006 hi mate i would get a zona if i were u there are a nice lookin bike at a good price they also look like apython so thats cool and another advantage is that its alot cheaper than a python so then u may have a couple quid left over to upgrade it or whatever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZOO!PYTHON Posted September 30, 2006 Report Share Posted September 30, 2006 hiya again, wise move you've got planned there - Zona or Python. I have a python 06 myself and love it too bits! Really great bike and i'm sure the Zip is too. Mat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downhill_rob2@hotmail.com Posted October 1, 2006 Report Share Posted October 1, 2006 and what would you class as riding properly have you ever watched good trials ? like craig lee scott, any street trials it all involves drops lol.You dont understand what i mean...I mean, why focus on sropping off a high drop, when really, you dont actually need to do massive drops just yet.Your just learning, and dont know how to land properly without sucking up all the impact properly, so why bother breaking your frame just to look good dropping off a "high" drop?You ever going to do a drop gap off somthing over 6 foot high? or anytime soon as i should have put it? no, didnt think so...why not focus on gapping and backwheeling and stuff, then you wont rape frames and you wil get a better rider!

bionicman Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 a t-pro is good if your a smooth rider but my mate cracked a t-pro underneith the headtube and it went all the way round but this was probably down to him doing 7.5ft drops and he is sketchy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel G Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 a t-pro is good if your a smooth rider but my mate cracked a t-pro underneith the headtube and it went all the way round but this was probably down to him doing 7.5ft drops and he is sketchy the crack was about 2 inches long and you could move the frame with your hands but the frame was also 3 years old Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
planet x alan Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 A six foot drop on a T-COMP u must be mad.. its obviouly going to snap/crack! there said to be one of the weekest frames out.. strikly for comp use! lol ryan.. mike is a smooth lander for how long he has been riding i have seen him drop 5-6ft and he lands perfect every time. i am also teaching him how to back wheel, side hop, wheel swap etc id say the t-pro is pretty strong after dropping 7 foot on a mates, felt real sterdey and i think they feel lush to side hop too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
