  1. Yesterday I went to ride at the club with the intention of getting used to the mod. It's the fourth time I am riding it and I still haven't found the best position to ride it. I am changing this frame as I think it is far too long.
  2. Ok... Directly from ZHI/BIONIC then? Can you get me a frame?
  3. I know, I guess it will come with time as trevor has only uploaded it some minutes ago...
  4. This is going to be great! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gVuaEx1qyw&feature=youtu.be&a
  5. Update with new pics and Carbon handlebars
  6. SO should I or not? I notice some of the pro do this... But shall I? Carbon bars to come! And more pics to come!
  7. This is the Koxx Sky Mk1 headtube. So it will open just like on all Skys I reckon. Other than that it's nice.
  8. Yes Marc Vinco did the same with a 20 mm spacer to get his TNN Top Cap to fit on his Monty stem.
  9. They weren't in stock. This one is already enough powerful I think.
  10. No it's a breath frame. It is exactly the same than the sky except it's shorter and lower
  11. I just wanted to try mod riding. My job pays average but I have some money aside that was supposed to be used on something else. Beside, bikes are the only thing I buy...
  12. So I finally decided to give mod riding a try. I first wanted to buy the Low Cost full build from Tartybikes but then changed my mind and decided to buy a custom full bike. Specs: Echo Lite 2011 20" frame 4-bolt and disc with integrated Bottom Bracket Trialtech Disc only 160 mm forks Neon Headset Trialtech Sport High Rise stem Trialtech High Rise bars Echo TR cranks with Echo TR pedals, Echo SL freewheel, Trialtech Half bashring and KMC Z610 HX 3/32" chain Bonz Rear hub with Try-All No War rim and Try-All Lite rear tire Echo SL front hub with trialtech Square Hole rim and Kenda 8-block front tire Double Hope Tech Trial Measured geo: Wheelbase: 1015 BB Height: +82 Chainstay length: 348 Weight is unknown but it really feels lite so I don't think I'll try to know! First picture but some better ones will come. Time for good pictures with carbon handlebars Thanks to tartybikes for their excellent advices and service as always. I even managed to get the package earlier. Working for DHL has some benefits for that I have questions though, how do I make sure my brakes are perfectly set? Any special things I should add to the explanations I got from the Hope website? Thanks for looking and please tell me what you think or answer my question!
  13. Just do it if you have a high BB bike (I mean more than +60) and if you are tall (I mean more than 1 m80)
  14. No differences except the top tube area...
  15. It was me. I suppose the way steel reacted was different. That Marino was not as rigid as this Sky 2. It takes a lot of time to get used to it though...
  16. At 1,3 bars they are the best front tires I have used after the Kenda Karma
  17. That's amazing riding from both of you!
