Sweet.. One effortless sidehop @ 1:46

They will last for ages

Buying a new chain wouldn't help anyway, since even with a new chain, I can't get it 100%. I'm not sure which gearing I'm running to be honest, but changing that would be a possibility.

Setup: Echo Control 09 long frame, TR brake clamps, K810 chain. So, when the chain is set up perfectly, the rim is too far out for the brakes to be lined up with the grinded edge. So with the brake clamps adjusted all the way down, half of the pads are on the edge, and the other half is on the tire.. This was okay in the beginning, when 80% of the pads were on the rim, but now, when the chain has streched a bit, it's not possible to line up properly. I know a half link would help, but I don't want one, as they weaken the chain. Is this a matter of the brake mounts that are welded too high? Or is it something else? - Jan Tore

Had one.. I'm like 77kgs, so it was kinda flexy.. Wouldn't reccomend it for the price..

That was just plain out awesome. The video, the riding, surroundings and filming. Perfect!

Haven't used it for long, but so far, I'm very pleased with my Trialtech lite sport BB. Seemed like a well build part. Only time will tell if it lasts..

I must say, I really love your calm riding style.

That's just very nice. I like the lines, your style, and how the video was put together. Definitely one of my favourite videos.

Well, I got my first bike about one year ago. I've been riding different bikes all of my life, so I soon felt comfortable riding the long, stretchy bike. Took me a week or two to get the pedal kicks going, and that's really when the fun begins. I feel it's very important to feel comfortable on the bike. Everything works out better then. If you go angry after failing several times, nothing will come, and you'll just grow tired. In the end though, everyone progresses differently. The guy I'm riding with, who learned me the basics, I've passed by miles now. But that's much because he's a pussy

It's quite impossible for us to say what frame with fit your body type, and ride style. If you're into Natural, you'll benefit from a short frame, because it's easier to control and throw around. For TGS, a longer frame will allow you to go higher. The stem and handlebar angle will also greatly affect the feel of your bike. Took me three tries before I found a fitting combo.

Sony Vegas.

That's huge.

I've had my SL for a while now. No skips or other problems at all. Seems like a very nice freewheel.

Very nice, man!

+1 It's measured, and it's clearly a long frame

I'm glad you got your bike sorted mate. It looks mint!

It fits very well. Got plenty of space on both sides.

That just looks so very awesome. Really like the complete finish of the bike. How is that rear brake working for you?

New bike season, new rear wheel. I broke my tryall wheel, and decided to buy a new one now since the snow is gone. It's clearly a different color scheme, but the hub fits in Other than that, the bike is the same, and I'm still very happy with it. It rides beast!

That is indeed one very looking bike. Shame it's a 20".

I'd easily go off with a 26" bike. I started on one, and it's all fine. I personally, felt cramped on a 20" bike. And I'm 6"2 or something. I'm running a Echo Control long with TryAll 3d stem and Tryall carbon riser bars now. Feels long and good. That's probably one of the longest bikes out there taking the "bb shell to head tube" measure into concideration.

Amazing, really!

Nowai!

Nice one! Just so nice to see the top riders struggle for once.
