ARSE! Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 I would buy the T-pro personally. But you shouldn't change frame just because the bashplate snapped just buy a new one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaffacakes Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 (edited) There's not much point in buying a superlight competition frame just to put bog standard heavy parts on it really. I can see where you are coming from because they have nice geo and nice and short but there won't alot of difference in weight or how your bike rides too much.Just give supercycles a ring on 0115 941 11 33 and see what they can do about geting you a new bash plate .

Andy Kay Posted February 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 Yeah but the t pro frame is dead cheapbut the only thing is that im quite a clumsly rider well not really but I mean when I try and lurch up something and I dont make it i slam down on the bashplate but Ive only been riding 3 months, and other than that I dont use the bashplate its just there to protect my frame Im just wondering wether to get it because some people say they're weak Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaffacakes Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 Yeah but the t pro frame is dead cheapThats a good thing . It's a really good frame for the money.but the only thing is that im quite a clumsly rider well not really but I mean when I try and lurch up something and I dont make it i slam down on the bashplate.If you slam it down on the bash alot then a T-comp is defintly not for you. It will cave in where the top bolt of the bash meets the frame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ash-Kennard Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 (edited) t-comps ride nicely, they are also flexy, snap happy, look shit, smell funny, taste nasty Edited February 16, 2006 by ash-kennard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JT! Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 If you snapped a t-bird's bashplate then you'll kill the t-comp frame quicker than a fat man eating.Just get a new bashplate, and try and controll your riding a bit better.I'v seen a t-comp snap befor my eyes, and the lad was only wee. And he didn't have it for long at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akira_Shock! Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 It's really not worth getting a T-Comp frame if you've managed to snap a T-Bird bashplate... the T-Bird bashplates are strong compared to the international modern bashplates as found on T-Pros for example. I think it's far more worth it to buy a Zona Zip frame, a T-Pro frame, or a T-Lite frame new off eBay. Joe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trials_man Posted February 18, 2006 Report Share Posted February 18, 2006 The t-comp frame is good but, i had one once and on about the third day of using it the threads for my magura mounts went . Wether or not thats down to the fact that i might not have tightened them enough i dont know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
