Walleee Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 The geometry says no, the reality says yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waynio Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 id have guessed the tubing will be lighter on a 221 ti? n maybe a tweak in the geo somewhere. uses integral headset on a 221 ti little bits of attention to detail makes the differences i think.Waynio....................E-mail barbara Wright @ Cleanbikes im sure she will be able to clear things up for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akira_Shock! Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 Something's gotta explain the serious price difference between the two frames! Isn't the current 221Pr heavily based around last years 221ti? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe_Elding Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 221ti's ride A LOT nicer than 221pr's, and I've ridden both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deonn h Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 221ti's ride A LOT nicer than 221pr's, and I've ridden both.Yes agreed the 221 ti rides 10 times better and feels lighter flickier .So no they don`tride the same at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walleee Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 Is the differance really that noticable?What about the differance between the 04/05 Ti's when compared to the 06Pr's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waynio Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 id listen to joe elding he seems to have ridden both also i would have thought that a difference in aluminium would affect the ride of the bike alot alone!!!! even if the geo was the same, light alu = more springy feel. and such forth.Waynio.......................

Derek Gibson Posted June 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 ok i see no 1 is selling a 05221ti any more so i am very interested in a pr but people say all different things about them like the way they ride and they are proned to cracking i just want to know the true facts, tehre has got to be something differnt or they would not be that huge price gap, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trialsinchris Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 id have guessed the tubing will be lighter on a 221 ti? n maybe a tweak in the geo somewhere. uses integral headset on a 221 ti little bits of attention to detail makes the differences i think.Waynio....................E-mail barbara Wright @ Cleanbikes im sure she will be able to clear things up for you i think there is a 0.7mm difference in chainstay length, lol , and they are shock absorbing i think so shouldnt crack easy.

onzatprodude Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 there was a topic in new members section and someone said they had there frame for 6 month (i think) and they have craked there frame in 3 places ... topic was quite a while ago but it was something like that try searching for it for more infoalso if you go on google ... look for pr's and then ti's there will be pictures which have the geometry along side it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stiffnips Posted September 24, 2006 Report Share Posted September 24, 2006 I am thinking of getting a pr, i rode one today and it feels cool but are the differences between the frames enough to make up the £400 odd price difference? Needing some help here? I'm not fussed about what other people thing about the ride because i've rode it and i like it i'm also not fussed about weight because i'm not a girl is that the only/main differance? Weight?Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
