Well I have looked around eBay and I can only find one other suitable Onza T-Pro which is in good condition but the brake needs bleeding. It isn't in as good condition as the Rip. Can you upgrade many parts on a Rip? Surely if I bought it though, it wouldn't lose much money if I kept it in good condition? Thanks

What to do.....What to do.....

A decent T-Pro is about £175 and I have to wait for a decent one to come up and and make sure they post if they are not local. This Rip just seems such a good offer to miss, but maybe it is just me wanting a bike ASAP! Thanks

Thanks Ashes. I'm really, really tempted! The only thing I don't like about it is the rear rim, I would ideally want to change it too a pink one which matches the front but if I got it I might think about changing the back rim to a 19" and disk brake, as I am already buying a new rim. What do you think? Cheers James

Thanks yet again Ash. How hard and how much would it cost to change the rear brake to disk? Is it done often? Would you value it at £150 Posted? (Just a tip, re-read your posts before you post them, as your above post doesn't make very good sense but I understand it) Thanks, James

Thanks for that Ashes. The reason I am asking is because I have found a very nice Onza Rip for £150 Posted which I think is worth it, but I am just after your guys advice/views. It is in very good condition, hardly used. It is white and it has pink rim and a black rim. Here is it's old listing on eBay: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=150454767073&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT What do you guys think? Worth it or not? I could do with an answer ASAP Thanks James

Thanks for that Ashes. Does it really make much difference? Oh BTW, I 'submitted validation vote' which looks like it was the last vote you need. Nice one mate. ATB James

Hi, Is the Onza Rip a good beginners bike? I hear that a 19" wheel is better then the 20" wheel the Onza Rip has, Why? Thanks

Why is it better to have a 19" wheel than a 20" wheel? Thanks

Anyone?

Could someone please let me know! I could really do with knowing by tonight! BTW, it is a Onza Rip Thanks

Guys what do you think of this one: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=150454767073&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT I know it has ended but would it be suitable and how much would you value it at? Thanks

Hi Guys, I have been trying to do this: http://www.trashzen.com/lifting-the-front-wheel.php I don't have a trials bike but I have a MTB (Trek 3700). Look at some of the threads I have made to see pictures of it. Anyway, I am having trouble getting the front wheel up then balancing on the back wheel. What I am trying to do is pull a wheelie, than pull the back brake on, but my front wheel just goes down. What am I doing wrong? Any tips/advice? Thanks James

Major thread revive here! Would a Onza T-Mag be suitable? Same as this : http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Onza-T-Mag-08_W0QQitemZ290420449629QQcmdZViewItem?rvr_id=&rvr_id=&cguid=4a5d46341240a0aad4e2d8b2ff1b9fd8 (Possibly an older model but with the same frame, tensile freewheel, tensiles, etc Thanks James

Mine has a normal rim brake so I am assuming that they won't fit? Cheers

I wasn't comparing them, I just wondered what they were like as I see a few 24/7 when I type in 'trials bike' on eBay. What is dirt jumping? Thanks

Thanks for that Revolver. Just out of interest, what are the 24/7 Jump Bikes like? Here is one for example: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220619278400&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT Cheers James

Thanks for that. Will they fit my bike? James

Hi Guys, Just looking on eBay and I came across this: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=310220165191&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT Am I right in thinking that this is a pretty crap bike? It looks good value for money though. Thanks, James

Sounds interesting. Have you got any pictures and are they any good? Thanks James

Thanks guys. Should I just wait for a bike to come up at the right price? Cheers James

They are 'RST'. Are these meant to be any good? Thanks James

As mimium as possible. About £200 Thanks James

The suspension on my Trek 3700 is really hard. I mean it is basically just like having no suspension just fixed forks. How can I make the suspension better? Thanks, James
