Its onzas choice, if you were selling somthing I'm sure you would try and get the most money from a customer as possible. But the some of the brakes are upgrades anyway, hydraulic doesnt mean better.

ALEX@BIKETRIALSFUN Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 It is a bit off them doing that I think it is down to new bees not needing them but why they razed the price I don’t know. In my opinion I think they have run out of money or they are running out of staff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

basher Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 Youve just looked at it and seen it has no hydro brakes and assumed its not as good, if i remember rightly other parts have been upgrade such as the cranks bb and freewheel.

onza wanabe Posted May 31, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2007 I have not just looked at it and said that it's not as good it's just i would preferr hydrolic brake also so they should give you a choice of having hydrolic brakes also.

Has anyone seen my shoe? Posted May 31, 2007 Report Share Posted May 31, 2007 Hydraulic brakes cost more, so the overall bike cost would have been hiked up some more.Then you would have been complaining.They still are the best value trials bikes on the market.

Alex@Flawless Bikes Posted May 31, 2007 Report Share Posted May 31, 2007 I think the new range is mostly worse! The t-pro are still made out of the weaker metal then the 05 (i think) models and for that price i would exspect Hydraulic brakes. But having said that it is nice to see a t-comp frame that will not snap in 5 seconds! Yes i know its the old t-pro design but i don't care, still good to see.

Has anyone seen my shoe? Posted May 31, 2007 Report Share Posted May 31, 2007 As far as im aware, U6 aluminium is no weaker then T6 (which I think they were using before) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
