scotty007 Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 is it any good though?and is it upgradable ?The mad looks ok to me and for 150 you cant really go wrong if your new to trilas. Easily upgraded too, maybe new crank freewheel and single speed set up would be the best upgraded to go for first, you can always pick up cheap brake set ups on here once your validated to complete it all but for 150 go for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddyboy123 Posted December 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 do you think it is worth buying?or should i wait until i get validation and buy a slightly more expensive one on here ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikee Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 Waiting to get validated and buying a better one off here will probably work out to be cheaper in the longer run.Where about in devon are you from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oli P Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 I would wait and get a second hand bike from on here for more money. I had a Phase 1.3 and within 3 months the chainstay had cracked on the drive side due to the design of the frame is made to have a 22T front sprocket so they cut out part of the chainstay to allow this, but they can and have lasted longer.It is a nice frame but the standard parts on it are not of the best spec but for the money you will not get anything better unless you spend a little more on a second hand bike.
