kjd4000 Posted April 26, 2008 Report Share Posted April 26, 2008 Hi I'm new to the forum my name is Keran and i haven't ridden trials for a good couple of years now.My bike is a 26" Mission Reefer which is great to ride, with Mavic D521s, HS33s, middleburn RS7s, etc. Anyway i'm now looking to start riding again but looking for a 20", so just after some advise from you guys that own these bikes on any pros and cons?I'm not looking to spend loads of money as i won't be taking it too seriously, just after the buzz i used to get from jumping a big gap, up and down walls etc.So there we go enough from me what have you got?Cheers Kieran Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skoze Posted April 27, 2008 Report Share Posted April 27, 2008 05/06 Onza T-pro would be a good bet Ride really nicely, can pick up a good one from here or eBay for under £200. That'd be my choice if you aren't looking at spending too much. What budget are you on?Mattp.s stay on the big bike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callum-Luvs-Trials Posted April 27, 2008 Report Share Posted April 27, 2008 A older model of the T-pro, The 05/06 models are great, they come with maguras, Front and back And drilled rims front and back.I would surgest to go on ebay and look around.They is always loads on there.Or wait till your validated, Which I think will be pretty soon, And post on clasified, they is always cheap 20" going on here with top notch spec.You may have to pay a lil' bit more.

kjd4000 Posted April 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2008 Cheers for the replys. That T-mag is the sort of thing i'm after and that style of frame. I am looking to spend about £200 ideally from someone close enough to test ride first, Kent isn't not too far away but i am going to America on friday but if it isn't sold by the time i get back in a couple of weeks i would seriously think about buying.A couple of you mentioned the older T-pro model, any pros and cons against the T-mag?

Yorkshire Dale Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 You might be better off gettin something a bit better like an onza t-pro! then if u dont get in to it u can always sell it on for a good price! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kjd4000 Posted April 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 to be honest im not too bothered. i know i will keep what ever i get even if i dont use it loads, it will be there when i fancy a ride so im not worried about re sale value Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
