Man, looks total awesome riding to me! Those beans are definetely kicking hard!

I have tested both long WB version frames Ride wise Controll is litle more suitable for real trials, natural, comps etc. Geometry suits for that kind of riding, the frame is quite light in weight. Pitbull then is somehow more urban/big move orientated in terms of handling/feel and construction. Super strong. It's hard to tell what suits your best, both of them are really nice stock frames that ride differently. Testride the both bikes and make the decision yourself. Zoo for: Strong design Flickable feel Echo for: Light feel Natural handling more comp orientated.

I ride Zoo! Python 05.. But I love the new Echo Team in red theme... so hot. Python is very good frame but the chainstays could be a litle shorter for my taste. If talking about stock bikes then I'll go for a long Echo Control /w riserbars. Super stable and easy to gap.

Riding gloveless gives better feel but at the beging hands wear fast and are sore. I ride gloveless everytime I can but now in autumn wheater gets so damn cold that I have to use gloves. It is more personal preference. CLS and many advanced riders ride without gloves and they can't be wrong. :angry:

....and he's doing alright with them!

Man! This is sick.. How long/high is that gap? Something like 12' x 7'... -
AME TriStar grips are the thinnest that I've found so far.

Ace! It's in my opinion the best looking stock frame so far! Absolutely gorgeus. Hands down.

I have used Echo mod CNC rims for few months now and I have had absolutely no problems with them. They are super straight and flawless. I don't ground my rims. I haven't test Onzas but these beat everyhing else; TryAll, Monty, Alex...

I always use my index fingers only. I know a guy who uses his midle fingers on the levers!
