New T-pro


Has anyone seen my shoe?

Recommended Posts

Looks like its a different colour too.

And the T-Bird is £299 and has a front disc brake?

Seemed to be a dark metallic-y grey at the show, a bit like the Limey! I'll try and get more detailed specs up later, I really needed some tea last night at 10pm!

And yep, the T-Bird has a front disc for '07! :huh:

Don't understand the V's on them...

Maybe a rear HS33 and whatever disc brake is on the T-Bird? - For the T-Pro.

I guess it's because everyone recommends T-Pros as a first bike, and not everyone has £420 lining their pockets.

Seems a good selling idea to me.

Could always sell the adaptors for a few quid. ;)

Dave/Adam, Is the 07 T-Pro made out of U6? Or 6061 again?

EDIT: Actually, all they really needed to change on the T-Bird, was the drivechain. Front freewheel.

:S

They should stop selling the t-bird all together in my opinion.

Its just an awful bike, made even worse now by the no frills brakes.

The money they save on NOT making it could mean another £20 or so off the basic spec t-pro.

I think what they've done is a good idea tbo, it'll help attract new riders: looks kool esp with the disk brake and it's fairly cheap and it has mounts for maguras if and when they want to upgrade. tbird=good imo

I would of agreed with that 2 years ago. But nowadays anyone wanting to 'get into the sport' just asks mummy to buy them anything deng has produced, money no object.

I don't think i've seen one new rider recently who owns a t-bomb/mission prodigy/t-bird. They all seem to own Pythons, Teams and x-lites.

If a newbie wants a disc, they are gonna have a hope mono trials attached with gold plated bolts to a set of Gu forks. Not a crappy cable disc attached to a t-bird.

BTW this post might sound snidey but i ain't meaning to be, just telling it like i see it.

It is £70 cheaper though, and you do get better forks and cranks...

Ah fair enough didn't see the price change.

I think they should have stuck with a maggie on the rear and put a v up front.
