Simon Posted January 28, 2006 Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 Whether the brakes work or not doesn't depend on the bike, it depends on the brake.Also, sorry to break it to you, but they are a shit bike. The frame has a 1.5" headtube, which means you need mission forks, mission stem and mission bars. So if you want another stem, you'll need to buy a new frame and new forks. If you want new forks, you'll need new frame and stem. You get the idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Greenthumb Posted January 28, 2006 Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 the technical term for missions componentry is "shite"Very crap, had bad experience with mission hubs which put me off mission once and for all.Like other people have said, definite no no, save for something else is good advice indeed.Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King C Posted January 28, 2006 Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 Definitely don't get one. They are very heavy, they have 14mm rear hubs, fat 1.5" headset and forks and are just generally crapIf your looking for something similar then look at onza t-birds, t vees etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You get the idea.Basicly what he said, plus the hardcore 14mm axles!.To be honest i wouldnt bother mate, sorry to have to say this but mission are in a word "crap".if your just starting i would say, get the onza t-pro, excellet bike to start on and comes with all the stuff you need.hope this helped cheerswilky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
