Captain Scarlet Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 (edited) Well here is my T-pro, I call her black beauty. All I need to change are my cranks, pedals and frame. Pedals are on the way, cranks and starting to crack so I need to replace them, and I don't plan on changing the frame until its had its time.SpecificationFrame: T-ProFront wheel: Echo 07 built onto a Pro 2Rear wheel: Echo 07 built onto an Echo fixed disc hubForks: Echo LitesFront brake: Hope Mono Trials 07 160mmRear brake: Hs33, Echo pads, Echo boosterCranks: Monty square taperPedals: T-vee pedalsFreewheel: EnoBars: CZAR risersStem: Echo teamExtras: Hope QR skewer, Hope headset spacers, Tarty Chainstay proector (found it on a ride )My frame isn't fading the pictures just make it look that way.Thanks, Edited October 19, 2007 by thutley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Scarlet Posted October 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 Ah yea of course the BB is one.I would love to eventually have a dual disc CZAR Steve, but there obviously isn't much point at the moment.Yea I'm thinking Echo forged, as I have just splashed out on rear wheel and have no money for any other kind of crank. =D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

basher Posted October 18, 2007 Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 Looks sweet personally i would run monty bars and stem, keep frame, tryall cranks and bb7 with ultimate lever. Now that would be a top spec bike that you would wank over would ride amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Scarlet Posted October 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 I've just ordered some Echo Forged cranks guys, should be on the bike tomorow.Looks sweet personally i would run monty bars and stem, keep frame, tryall cranks and bb7 with ultimate lever. Now that would be a top spec bike that you would wank over would ride amazing.My friend has Try-All rage bars and stem on his T-Pro, so I suppose thats similar, but it feels like a pile of wank, I like the riser style of bars like the Monty ones but not on this kind of bike, better on the shorter bikes in my opinion.

Good news:On inspection of my cranks it appears to be flat unscratched spot on my cranks and not a crack, so thats good news but I've already ordered my cranks, should be here on Monday.Bad news:After making the comment; "I'm not thinking of changing my frame until this one dies, which will be like years", I checked the usual place for cracks on the 05 T-Pro's, by the join that joins the headtube and the downtube, and found a series of 3 hairline cracks.Oh dear. =(And I'm not sure where I stand on the Half Price Replacement as I bought the frame second hand, but it was in immaculate condition then and still is in a fair shape now so I hope it can be done.

But yeah t-pro *** lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Scarlet Posted October 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 I didn't say I was going to get another T-Pro.Most of the Deng frames are too expensive, so at the moment I am considering a Zip or a Pr.But I haven't got an email back from Supercycles, as I was hoping to get half price replacement.

Captain Scarlet Posted October 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 (edited) Well I fitted my chain today, a nice black KHE collapse to go with everything else black, and my cranks came today, so I'll take a new picture tommorow when I fit them.I got a phone call this morning from someone who was interested in buying my old T-Vee, so if I can shift that I've got my new frame sorted.Only bad thing is that I have ordered some Shin Digs from an Onza distributor, who are currently out of stock, so they are on back order, If I sell my T-Vee my current pedals have to go on that and I will be pedal-less as I am still waiting for my Shin Digs.Lets just hope the distributor gets the pedals quick.
