Alright i was wondering what you guys generally find a better technique for the height of a sidehop. So either you land front wheel first to get back wheel up or you land dead to 2 wheels.
Cheers Hendy
can barely read that colour writing. But two wheels is ideally the best to land on.
-
Yea your right, mod is 20" and stock is 26"
-
Nice, how do they ride? Curious because i think i'm going to be asking father christmas for some wheels and an 04 maggy:)
-
Worked for me:P
Nice bike, what wheel set are you running?
-
Haha there monty rims too! They'll die really quick if they kept getting treated like that
-
colour scheme is a bit iffy:P Apart from that looks fairly nice.
-
Lol, anywhere I can get them cheaper than £160 since i'm only spending £200 on a wheel set?
-
Who told you that
Ive had mine a year and its never skipped. But yes, i'd rather have a profile. If only Deng would make me a 36 holed Echo '07 rim 
why not just drill a couple of extra holes to put the spokes in? A couple of my friends have run tensile's and, well they ended up other the fence:P
-
up to you mate, but in reality freehubs tend to last alot longer than freewheels...
If i got the choice now i think id get the profile, just because its nicer and i think it should last a few years.
Also if you really want to be a tart the profile "sounds" beautiful.
haha, yeah i've been offered to have a 1month old profile hub and echo front disk hub for £50, i think i'll go for that then:P
-
Worth the extra £130 or so?
-
I see, So it came from motorcycle trials. Haha, my dreams will be different now!
-
I've used search on both of them, yes i have found some useful information but not enough to spend £160 on something that could be pants. So, to be honest i just fancy something very loud, that clicks. I've heard that tensiles skip, but i've been told they don't. I've also been told that the profile is well worth the money and the best thing you can do in trials.
So what are your experiences with either of them?
Thanks Joe

yh ive seen it thanks mate out of my price range about
if i was gonna spend that much i wuld have to sell my 26" KOXX
How could you get a koxx wasp or monty pr then?
-
It's like marmite! End of:P
-
Theres a really nice Echo on atm, by it now is £900 but it's starting at £200
<-- Link -
Recently i keep thinking it was invented by some people who lived where it was harsh terrain, so they could get over it on bikes...i know thats not true. Anyone know?
-
I think it looks really nice but not worth the £1599 price tag. I'm surprised that monty have gone new school. It's a breath of fresh air from monty.
Sidehops?

I have perfect vision thanks
, Yea i find sidehops to front wheel feel sketchy, either to back wheel or two. But it's all about YOUR personal preference, trial and error to be honest.
