Acko Mod rider Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 I have a Standard 06 t pro and im wondering what I should do to it to make it better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onzaallen Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 If you mean like upgrades then maybe new cranks, bb, front disc instead of maggie maybe a better freewheel, tires ect.you can upgrade almost everything on them, is it still the steel forks on the 06? if it is i would change them, i did and it made a massive difference to my bike, its really nice on the back wheel now.Try using the search as well there has been a few topics about upgrading t-birds and t-pros.

bowman12 Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 a new bottom bracket and freewheel is a MUST. the newer t-pros use shoddy components. i had one and the freewheel fell apart after i rode it 2 meters down the road when i first got it. changed the freewhell and the BB died on me. so yeah, BB and freewheel before you do anything else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muel Posted December 12, 2006 Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 I also have a T-PRO, and these are the upgrades I have done.Echo Forged 6061 CranksTensile FreewheelOnza Cirtus Pads On Ground Rims (Front And Rear)Skinny GripsMetal TPA AdjustersWellago PedalsI wouldn't bother with a front disc, my mate has a T-Mag and it is far to grabby, I much prefer having a HS33 on the front with a ground rim.The next thing is going to be new rims, or bar/stem combo.

Fixed Pants™ Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 As long as it works, and feels ok for you, just ride it, save the money for when you get a broken part or what ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dozydame Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 (edited) I also have a T-pro. definetley upgrade to a back freewheel or cassette and run a surly or plazmatic Cog on the front. If you've got that back wheel with the crappy little hedgehogs in it, get rid of it . Me and my mate smashed the hell of one yesterday., great fun, but is avery weak wheel, is heavy and looks crap. Get a try-all or viz rim. Edited December 14, 2006 by dozydame Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan6061 Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 3. Zoo stem I hope you haven't ordered the stock stem..They don't make the Mod stem anymore, so unless you got a mod one second hand, have fun with the very low front end.
