Sorry cant i'm going to the exeter trials competition thing
-
My forks at the moment are 06 echo urbans and they flex and feel like they are going to bend etc. What are stronger between the zoo znd echo urbans 07
im using a front disc brake so its not the 4 bolt versions if that makes any difference
-
The tensile freewheel isnt all that my brother has one and all it does is slip get the eno or try-all.
-
I havent yet heard of any one cracking, folding or bending echo 06 rims
they usually just fold on anything you come in contact with
-
There is a way around this a mate of mine dozydame put a 19" wheel on the back of a t-vee the chain tension was fine and the brake worked pretty well
the only thing is the brake has to be angled downwards
-
My zoo bars make a clicking noise when i do a big gap or drop thats about it
I've heard that they do this anyway and for the forks I've got echo urbans and they flex a little bit thats just usual
-
Hope minis in past experience they have never worked for me
bb7 all the way very simple to set up and work better than a mini
-
Again i recomend a t-pro for a starter bike and you can pick them up for around £200 - 250 max
-
The 07 pitbull would be good and instead of the 07 adament get the 06 version these are both very strong
-
Never use cage pedals they lasted a mate of mine a week
V8`s get my vote they have lasted me ages
-
T-rex uber strong
definatly not a t-raptor i used to have one what a heap
20" definatly a t-pro even though i have seen one cracked pretty bad at the headtube
-
in 8 years of trials I have broken:
4 pairs of forks
1 handlebar
3 stems (snapped!)
5 frames
about 10 pedals
1 bb
about 10 rims
3 maggies
0 vees
4 avid disk calipers
about 13 mechs
loads of chains
5 hub axles
think thats about it
not much then
-
Echo 06 wheels = cheese one of my mates done this but the spokes ripped the wheel apart
-
In past experience i have only ever snapped bottom brackets ive gone through about 5 or 6
I was wondering what things you have snapped or cracked
-
Zoo bars definatly nice and wide and and give good control
-
ive only ever ridden stock and i want to keep it they way also mods are for little kids
im 6ft and i ride stock and mod bikes are a pain to set up the bak wheels etc mods are a bad choice for your size
-
Koxx yellows or reds
heatsink blues
BT yellows
Zoo greens
all these on light grind or smooth wheel with tar
or
Get a grind and get
Plaz crm
rock pads
-
Rain
chavs
wheres your seat gone
how much did your bike cost
-
If its a profile take it apart and check all the pawls and springs
BUT whatever you do don't regrease it a mate of mine nick done this and it just non stop slipped
Bad idea to regrease
-
Ive been looking at the two frames and i cant seem to get hold of the old 06 adament but i can get the old hi-fi which is cheaper and looks stronger
-
Its so annoying last week a load of chavs came of the train with all these spray cans and says where is your seat
"hahaha do you want a medal" like i haven't heard that on before
-
I want to get a new frame and ive narrowed it down to either the adament or hi-fi
can any one tell me what is the strongest frame out of them both
-
I use a hope xc hub smooth, silky bearings
-
When vee brakes are set up well they work very well especially when they are avid brakes, they're amazing
