  1. After riding the Hex for about 8 years i wanted to try a frame with a little more trialsy geometry, but not going completely high BB. The Echo Pure is perfect, better on the back wheel while still being somewhat manoverable into 180s and manuals! 

    WB: LONG: 1090mm
    BB: +25mm
    CS: 380mm
    Head tube length: 120mm
    Head tube angle: 72.5 degrees

    A bold statement dude, There are not many MTB riders that hit that milestone, I believe Aaron Gwinn was on similar dough as a multi-world cup winning rider, let's not forget exactly how much £1,000,000 actually is.

    I've no idea what Redbull pay, I'm pretty sure nobody does to be honest, maybe it works on views and hype, I'm honestly not sure, for example, Thomas ohler (sp?) is a Redbull athlete I can't imagine he's on the same paycheck as fabio.

    But are canyon going to be throwing that much at him? also his clothing brand? i mean the world of MTB is pretty small, and I've never seen a sick series item in the wild..

    Its all very interesting and i want to know everything as a nosey bystander

    At German bike events, where Sick series have a booth, kids are lining up for hours to buy a shirt and getting a signature. They are pretty much sold out at the end of every event they turn up to here :D

  3. Got this Gu Le (from what i suspect is 2009) for a good deal of Ebay and thought i'd give classic trials another go after riding street for the last years.
