  1. i ride a echo control from the somerset area i like to ride anywere rearly, its usally where ever mates can take me because i cant drive and we live in a small town. dream bike is most proberly a nice leeson with all the top components.
  2. ide go second hand mate.im guessing you can pick up something like my bike for around 500 second hand. search echo control in bike pics.(its not for sell by the way). plus with a second hand bike around that price range it will have alot of nice components.
  3. i might be able to go, ill come down on the train though. ill ask around a few of my local riders aswell. are you getting the train down? where exactly is the comp.
  4. how well do the zoo pads hold up without a grind on a anodized rim?
  5. yeah i would but im skint at the moment, hopefully will change them soon, ive been looking around for some risers a mate might be selling some eastons with a hope stem. the flat bars arnt too bad they are nice and wide.

  7. just ride it until it breaks, and if it affects your riding change it aswell if not i wouldn't worry changing anything anytime soon unless you have alot of money laying around.
  8. i maybe wrong but if you know little about "geo, chainstay length,headtube angle,ect... " why attmpt to make a custon frame?
  9. you should of noticed the bb bearings getting worse and worse over time. hold the crank arm and wobble it and can you see the axel moving too, if soo your bb has gone.
  10. ill put my tyres back on and ill go with you. lots of love liam.
  11. slightly off topic but im getting braces in a few weeks, never mind.
  12. hi since ive had my account for months and my profile picture has never shown, how do i fix this?
  13. yeah my hope lever did that dap some oil on the lil linkage thing on the leverblade, that solved it
  14. my self and quite alot of my buddys run tryall rims, they seem to be made of cheese, id try the echos but they are still very wide and a bit unnecessary.
  15. i have seen one picture of a pro2 that has cracked, and i'd imagine hope replaced that underwarrenty they are amazing like that, go for the hope.
  16. just get out and ride rather than moan about some hard skin? the more you ride the less you will even notice them or maybe get some gloves if they bother you that much.
  17. That is how he fell, i picked up the peices of his headset so he didnt loose them while my friend robin took a photo.
  18. there isn't much on a front hope bulb to service mate? only thing you can do is knock out the cartridge bearings which if you don't need to do why bother?
  19. yeah i find it funny that a premember is giving advide on how to become a member? fathopper can post anything he likes in this forum.
  20. mine have been bled with water for over a year and i only bled the rear one once because the hose split.
  21. what bike did you used to have?
  22. "so shod i jst go n get sum propa oil and save all the hasal" fanx guyz type properly it is easier to get your point accrues and use the spell checker if you want to become a member. just bleed it with water feels nicer,cheaper and easier, research bleeding with water. mines been bled with water since i've had it and the previous owner had it bled with water for years before that.
  23. welding cracked frames maybe? its just a guess.
  24. i'm running a hope m4 on the front of my stock and it seems nice, no where near as nice as my mates louise on his mod or my friends hope mono trial. the m4 has loads of modulation but no as much bite. personally id go for the louise.
