Just called them, none in stock and can't get them for the forseeable future...
-
Where? Tell me and I'll buy a set or two, haha. The bodies are the same as the existing Try-All Magnesium pedals, but with raw materials costs so high, titanium bits are crazy expensive...

Just a few snaps from a little ride last night... Mix of my fisheye and 50mm lenses, got really dark at the end and didn't have my tripod for flash, so had to use the on-board. Was cool experimenting and having to use different settings! Large rolling gap Tap (not very wide... about a foot) Big sidehop - also not very wide at all on top, maybe 2ft then a ~8-9ft drop to the floor. Scary drop in... ... nose first Sidehop to rear on the end of the flat bank - 50mm lens Same again with fisheye... gives a better idea of the size of the move but kinda distorted Whip it... whip it real good! Sidehop preload with amazing facial expression Big hook on narrow wall... took me AGES to get the a result I was reasonably happy with, kept getting the focus in the wrong place, ended up using manual focus (f1.8 and 1/25s) Hope you like!

Awesome! Staples for Prime Minister?

I am not sure where the speculation about '08 deng models' has come from - it is not unknown for a company to run the same frame for 2 years! I do know Echo have been working hard on a new parts range so I doubt there will be new frames available before the 09 models. At £300 you have a lot of choice, check out specs, compare them across frames, and most importantly try and get a shot on a few different frames to see which you prefer
-
Haha. I think they are cast now then CNCd to finish, then polished up (they are defo Echo cylinders).
-
Check the pictures on TartyBikes website - the rims have changed, they are actually the latest Try-All rims which won't be on the top bikes for a few months yet! The headset is also the same one as used on all the Koxx bikes, including XTPs, the Boxx... Have a look at the specs of the new 449, 499 and 649, they are completely different to the Trick and the Djinn, I think you'll be suprised
-
Oh yeah, definitely, on street I think its a winner but on natural... not so sure. Even Vincent says it's done for weight saving but the grip is worse, especially on rocks/natty.
-
Very pimp as I have already said For those wondering about the tyre, why do racing cars run slicks? (Where permitted.) Of course one reason is for less drag, but when they introduced the compulsory grooves in F1 tyres this was to slow the cars down by giving them less grip... of course there are more factors than that but I think there is definitely mileage in the idea. Btw, the 'prototype Trialtech pads' aren't ZOO pads, despite being a similar colour...
-
I see, hmm... well a new tyre may help, there are none specifically smaller than others as far as I know, but it does sound like it's the rims that's the problem
-
It does sound like the rim is the problem then.... got a tape measure? If you could check the overall diameter of the rim that might try and weed out the problem - Try-Alls are 397mm and Echos 398mm for comparison. Also, compare the 'bead' (the little bit that sticks out inside the sidewalls to 'catch' the tyre) of the Neon rim to your Monty one to make sure it isn't too small
-
Is it possible that the rim is at fault? Has the problem only started since you changed rim?
-
Doing Stan's pics today :wink2: The 3 frames are all different - the Cannibal is the lightest at around 1.75kg, then the XR26 at 1.9kg, and the XS26 at 2.1kg. All *similar* geos, but ride differently and different strengths.
-
Did you put the bearings in the right way up? Since the bearing cages don't actually touch anything, I find it hard to believe they would just fall apart... Anyway, the weight is 116g, plus 26g for top cap/star nut/bolt. Pretty good considering Koxx have used them for 7 years and not had one problem to date!
-
Of course... I just think that if it's failed due to a problem with the rotor, then it should be replaced for you. Tell you what, I'll send the pics off to Gusset and I'll see what I can do from there, then let you know if it needs to come back, that ok? Cheers
-
Strange - feel free to send it back and we'll give warrantying it a go
-
Try this... take the rotor off and put it on something flat (glass, worktop) and check if it's bowed. Then, put a different rotor on and see if that appears to be warped - my guess is that the hub disc mounts have deformed slightly and that the rotor is fine.
-
The only differences between the Hope brakes and the Try-All brakes are the colours and the rotors. The rear disc mount is at +20 so instead of a #3 caliper for 160 rotor, the XTPs and Hoesels (and Hydroxx) use a #5 caliper and 160 rotor (same as a front brake). I have 'normal' Hope brakes on my Hoesel (but needed to swap the rear caliper from my DOB). I agree that white, silver or black rims would look better, but with the blue stickers on it does look really sweet. Try-All rims are being phased out ready for a new model in approx 2 months, so all the most popular colours have sold out now. Ads

At £5.. Monty for small hands, Trialtech for larger hands
-
25 Summer lovin...? haha. No days off unfortunately, might treat myself to a half day sometime though! Cheers boys
-
Have you seen pics of a Hydroxx 2? Just wondering as they haven't been released yet. Anyway, looks sweet, I'm not sure on the yellow also but then again I am a boring old man Enjoy it!
