fbmbmx Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 Hello i had a misson prodigy 20" it was a really nice bike the only thing i found wrong with it was the bash guard riped of the frame.

lankyri Posted March 20, 2007 Report Share Posted March 20, 2007 (edited) ok ive had both these frames and i must say the saracen is the better ride and who ever said bout isis crank not true simpson was riding through llondon on his saracen and i ran over the crank and pedal :Panyway back to the topicmission reefer 1.5 headset- this is what i have and to be honest it was a cool frame i liked it but i found it hard to get it onto the rear wheel, but i found it bunnyhopable lol but like i sai the saracen was a better ridesaracen 2 six- simpson had one of these (i had the older one in black) this had a better riding position and felt like you could do trials on this and simpson improved way faster than me on his saracen than me on my mission. BUT simpson did do a few heavy drops on this frame and still being not able to stay on the rear wheel as long as you would like he has snapped the frame but still a great beginner bikeNOWIF YOU CAN I WOULD GO FORonza t-rex spec one- this is a bit more expensive but its worth it the geo is perfect and i loved this bike it road so nice and i did my biggest drop and gap on this frame as well also if you buy it as a full build be aware of the cranks as they will round (being square tapered) and the hub will die eventually but this is the far best beginner bike for stock you can buy imo and you will get alot more credit for going with this frame hope this lil review helps you mate Edited March 20, 2007 by Lankyricky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ash-Kennard Posted March 20, 2007 Report Share Posted March 20, 2007 WTF are you all on, the missions are shockingly bad compared to the saracens, no joke, they are actually pretty nice, just not strong enough with recent models. but the missions are alot weaker and ride awfully Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearded Midget Posted March 20, 2007 Report Share Posted March 20, 2007 saracen as i rode a mad 2 zero as my 1st bike and i can do more on that than what i can on my mates mission (most probably because his stem is the size of a 26" stem ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NileBrown™ Posted March 20, 2007 Report Share Posted March 20, 2007 My first trials bike was a Saracen mad team super pro and thought that was a great bike. My mates had missons , a reefer and a prodigy. However , mission do seem to make parts that don't seem to last, the bash fell off after a few days , he managed to brake his headset and because its a 1.5 headset , not exactly popular to find. Also , broke the bearings in the rear wheel and snapped the axle somehow, the prodigy uses 14mm axles which really don't help.I would definitly go for the saracens as they're cheap and look great especially the new ones.thanks , Nile Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trialsr lee Posted March 21, 2007 Report Share Posted March 21, 2007 WT are you all on, the missions are shockingly bad compared to the Saracens, no joke, they are actually pretty nice, just not strong enough with recent models. but the missions are alot weaker and ride awfullythanks,-this guy knows what he on about people say Saracens are crap because there not "trials specific" but they are so much better than a mission in terms of (personal preference) balancing getting on the back wheel - Saracen look so much better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
