  1. Lovely bike, love all black bikes......but thats some crazy lever angles there!
  2. it'll just look ugly but it'll work, unlike the other model avids where it'll look the same even if you flip it.

    Ptc Christmas Ride

    Great vid, good riding and nicely edited. Well done!
  4. Right guys about to buy a megamo equip pro and have been told the rear disk mount is +40. So if I'm not wrong if I run a normal bb7 caliper with 160 adaptor I will need a 200mm rotor ? Is it at all possible to run an 8 inch (203mm) rotor as it is much easier for me to get one of those cheap? Happy new year ! Cheers!

    New Brake Time

    Almost the same setup as me except for I have ultimate levers and I have V mounts on my frame. You'll love your new brakes.
  7. They are the 'ultimate' !! the lever is cnc'ed and runs on cartridge bearings making it so smooth and stiff. For a front brake though just go an xtr unless you can find a cheap deal on ultimate. I've never liked the feel of the other avid models lever but have always liked the xtr/xt ones.
  8. cool vid, but why is he on an adamant? isn't he sponsored by toxin ?
  9. what about echo ? mines been fine for a year.
  10. Also, it might work with ultimates as you can swap the side where the noodle goes in.

  13. Thanks alot for the replies !! I got this frame from an Australian dealer here when they were getting rid of the old stock with the new echo controls and hifi's etc coming in. They had about three left i think and luckily i got hold of one. Your right Rowan this isn't one of the oldest ones this is the model that was a year after yours and came only in 1085 with a tad of bb rise. I would of loved a 1065 one. I would definitely like a thomson stem and post, especially cos the post i have now can only tilt the seat a little bit. But yeah they would be after a new front wheel maybe. Rich, definitely do it, V brakes rock ! Joe thanks for the tip, but can I ask why it would be better to run it the other side ? Cheers guys.
  14. I'm so jealous of you all , I've only seen them once when they came to australia for the absolution tour. They are coming here around January I think so hopefully I can catch them then. They are seriously awesome live.
  15. It's just about complete. Got a few new goodies for it. Zhi Forks, Avid ultimate caliper and lever, Hope Pro II T laced to DX32, Hope mono trials etc...
  16. Holy crap wouldn't want to get chased by that. Over here in Aus we had a few wrx's for cop cars but they took them off because the cops couldn't handle them, wouldn't imagine it would be any easier with a lambo.
  17. That looks sweet as, whats the wb with them forks ?
  18. whats the reason for using half link chains ?

    Oh Noes

    Helmet

    Yes its definitely worth getting a helmet it could save your life. I find the pro tec ones are quite good looking and more importantly comfortable, but they do get a bit hot.

    Pro 2 Hubs

    I'm afraid not, the cassette body is longer on it and it doesn't say pro II T.
  22. Can I ask why you guys are using thin trials kinda seats ? is it better than the normal padded ones ? I would of thought its harder to pinch ?
