  1. A Echo stem, not sure the GEO as it's old! I was thinking a bigger stem as I just got the bars and want to stick with them! Probably go with 180mm, and if its too big send it back and look for one a bit shorter but I think 180 should be good!
  2. Hi, got a T Pro with Echo low rise bars, practically flat. Front end feels very low, I really feel badly hunched, would a 180mm be over the top or okay? I was looking at the trialtech race.

    Fox Jacket

    Okay so I got this Fox FX2 jacket, I totally love it. Very nice jacket! I bought in in Medium as I feel i'm getting too big for small. But then again, this jacket is a bit bigger, and i'm not sure to go with all the hassle of returning it to try a small, then it not fitting and getting a medium again. So does anyone have a small Fox jacket so they could give me some info, i'm 5ft8 and I prefer jackets to be a bit tighter like hoodies! Cheers
  4. Yeah, sus on it might be hard for DJ, if you have very light gearing. Just letting you know. But half link and that magic ratio could work.
  5. Yeah there is VAT I was just mentioning the import duties.
  6. Yeaah! Was reading they don't do warranties and the tax on a frame I looked at was like 4.7%. But wouldn't want to risk it.
  7. So basically, you've all probably seen the message that tartys was showing in the newsfeed. Basically Alibaba is a wholesale website, and it sells loads of stuff. You can buy in large large quanitites, so sometimes save money as you get cheap price per thing the more you buy. So anyway I went on it just to check it out, see where people were buying trials parts and found some mager brands, Zhi, Bionic, Neon, some Echo. They did really really cheap stuff... But there is sorta of a catch, some things you had to buy in qaunities of 3 or more, so can be pricey. But frames and headset, or rear hubs were very very cheap. neon bow frame for like 230 USD (£146 to you and me) with lots of Zhi Team frames and really high spec frames at seriously low prices.. Echo rear hub for like £30 and loads of cheap stuff! Titanium bolts for under a quid!! But big downside, shipping was like 100USD, so buying small stuff didn't seem worth it. But yeah, just wondering if anyone has bought off there before. Should check it out just to see the stuff they are selling. Not too sure if I would trust them with my money though..
  8. Hi man! So what front wheel do you have? (and a price please) And also, you say you have some Echo pedals in orange? (again price would be great!) Thanks Sol (ps couldnt pm you, so have to post it on your wall)

  9. Man I love the echo bronze colour!

  10. My lever seems kinda squishy. This a bad thing? Maybe your bleed is bad? Or there is a leek?
  11. Well thats a bit more reasuring! Not really wobbles but when the crack passes over the freewheel at the top it sorta of pushes it aside.
  12. Yo, so got been riding my trials bike for a few weeks now and I have just noticed that when I pedal or spin the cranks the freewheel moves slightly to the left, but it's pretty tight on and not sure why. Got a video, it's hard to see but not sure really what to do or if it's normal. video: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B4GU7dyKwu1tUEp0dldteHNUZXF6NUxyMXVrYlFKUQ/edit
  13. Yeah it's a fixie! Yeah seems pointless.
  14. Okay so i'm not really saying you should have 2 brakes. 1 is fine but, I was looking through some buy/sell and looked at this. You could run a V/U and a maggy. But, sacrifice the front brake to compensate for the V/U brake lever or opposite. Would be okay for an experiment. lol, this has dual disc. I have seen prototype DH bikes with dual up front, never seen rear. Would be hard to get disc mounts either side. But, again. This could be an idea: Get a mount and disc rear hub and you could have 2.. would be pointless though
  15. Well, I'm not sure of much good BMX chain splitters. I like the Kool because it's very strong and lasting, but I just need to find something that can handle it.
