b33rs Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 I have Rocket pipes now and I was wondering if anybody has had a chance to ride Rockets and T5s and could tell me if there is a big difference between the 2. I do alot of hill shoots and climbs and I tend to spend alot of time crawling around and sometimes the Rockets can be a little tough to do that, so I was thinking t5s. Any input would be helpful thanks. b33rs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bansh-eman Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 (edited) if your not doing mostly topend riding the T-5 would probly be a better pipe for you. there are a few differant factors to think about but the type of riding is the main focus. Rockets CPI and Shearers are all topend pipes. if your going to be crawling you might look into PT mids, your idea of clrawing and mine might be totally differant, so try and explain what your idea of crawling is. And then maybe we can give you better advce. Also do you have any porting or plan on getting any soon?

locogato11283 Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 t5's will be much better for all around riding.. the rockets are gonna pull way harder on the top and the power will come on later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My crawling is mainly dune shoots in and out of our trees over here on the Oregon coast. But I find myself getting into really tight places and the Rockets can be a little much to feather it out. And when I'm not playing in the trees I'm dragging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bansh-eman Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 T-5 or Trinity stage 4 sound like they would be right up your alley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b33rs Posted April 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 So all out dragging, any idea how much I would gain or lose going to a T5 from my Rockets? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bansh-eman Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 You will feel quite a bt differance on topend but your bottom and mid will be night and day differant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
