Had to watch it twice in a row, did not want it to end!
Loving the front wheel moves, such an enjoyable style!

The TryAll rims I have had were not too bad with a grind, I just find that the bite is always more noticeable on an Echo rim. How do you find running smooth with Heatsinks as I may consider front Vee and some point with a smooth rim and Heatsinks but keep the rear with a grind?Echo rims forever. Running a try all atm because it was cheap and smooth, don't think I'd bother grinding it

I'm using echo on the front, you can tell its harder material just by the noise the grinder makes.
Yea you can, odd how all companies use a slightly different metal and the performance varies so dramatically. I found that the grind on my Onza Diamond I had on my Mod only lasted half the amount of time the Echo grind does.

Use a wide mtb rim instead of a trials one. Iv been using a dmr backline rim thats had the same grind on it for nearly 2 years and with heatsink yellows and phatworks pads the brakes been awesome even without tar!
Nothing beats an Echo Rim for grinds, I have tryed mulitple different brands, the Onza Diamond being the worst!
Currently running an Echo TR on the rear and it is fantastic, always stick with Echo.

Thankyou for the replies guys, I'll only use them in certain places as like said I am the same when it comes to constantly fiddling with the rear brake. xD

Hi guys,
What are your experiences with Titanium Bols as I have been told to stay clear? Looking to get some Rainbow Titanium Rotor bolts and some odd bolts to wack on. Also Stan Bolts are very expensive, have any of you found others around?
Thankyou,
Tom

Fair enough to Brad, always builds some nice looking bikes which one of them went on to me.
He can choose what he does with his money and I can't blame him for spending it on Trial parts, I do the same!

I love the "Didn't know if it was the stem or that he was excited to see me"! xD
-
Bloody hell, why did you not stick with the mod?
-
Another build? How many bikes have you had in the past 2 months?
I am quite interested to know this aswell. xD

Kenny rode with a pocketful of spare stems and an allen key during the Antwerp World Cup so he could change his Echo stem mid-section when it snapped.
Ridiculous, would you want to ride a stem knowing that it is near death...no thanks!
End up with no teeth!

Just bought a K2, rather pay extra for forged!
Thankyou for the replies guys!

I've heard the pros change their echo stem after every ride.
What!? That is not a good sign, my brother just gave his bike a check over quite awhile back discovering a crack that had gone all the way around his Tryall 3D Stem to the top!

Hi Guys,
Just want some opinions from anybody that has used these stems. My brother has used the Tryall 3D Stem in the past which is now left with a massive crack around the top weld which puts me a little off the Echo stem but it is half the price of the K2.
I have also noticed a hell of alot of people using the K2 Stems recently and do look strong, fully forged which is a bonus.
Thankyou,
Tom

Really liking your style George, Definitely seeing a massive improvement in your riding especially your sidehops (because I know you love your sidehops)!
