What trail bike is this?
I have searched Onza on a popular search engine :-) and have only found them with round tubing, this has square?

Is it an Onza. Any info on the bike would be great.

Well, it's written right on it. Yes, it's an Onza T-Mag - a really old one. Judging by the looks of it and and the y2k thing, it's probably a '99 or 2000 model?

Was only because I searched and couldn't find anything about it on internet.

I didn't know if it was something someone had made then put Onza stickers on it.

Yeah, I couldn't really find much on it either. Maybe some special team issue? I don't really know much about Onzas but it's obviously an older bike. I did find one youtube vid with some kid making a really horrible attempt at rear wheel hopping on one, though - square tubes and all.

Bike was on Ebay UK for £30, no interest at all. I am suprised, looks like it will be off to the local charity shop.

I think you are missing the point here - THE BIKE IS OLD. The frame geometry in right in line with a lot of bikes from 10 years ago. Looks like it was a damn nice bike in it's time. Take a look at their site - they have some nice stuff. New T-Mag http://www.e-calibre.co.uk/onza/products/bikes/2008/large/Tmag.jpg

It is up for £30 not £500. That is the big difference, no everyone has ££££££$$$$$$ to spend.

sometimes i think riding a modern day mountain bike would be easier than one of those older trials bikes. the brakes will at least work better.

Thanks for the help, I have dumped the bike. I thought it looked OK.
