My mums, auntie's, brothers, uncles, son used the echo rims, the are CRAP and break once you blow air on them!@!:!"
Echo_scotty, your full of shit, I have been using monty rims for a good two months now, mine have not come out of true, they have not dented, and they are still running as they did the day I got them.
People need to understand that just because one things breaks, does not mean they are all the same, there are so many variables that you simply cannot compare.
Perhaps your friend isn't too smoth, perhaps hes a fat fanny, perhaps his wheels were built badly.......
see?
It's not as black and white as you make out. Come back with some statistics and then i'll believe you when you say one is better than the other, until then, i'll continue to run my monty wheelset.
On topic: have you got a mod at the moment? I've just got myself a 221pr frame stem and bars, once the forks are available i'll be getting them, alltogether it's come to under £300, im using my brakes, bottom bracket, cranks and wheels off my current bike, you could probobly get a wheelset for under £50 secondhand, cranks for 20-30, bb a tenner, brakes, maybe 50 for a front and rear, thats second hand estimates....
So you could have yourself a nice wee bike, maybe not so good wheels, but something to ride on ffor a while allowing you to save up for something better......
I couldn't personally justify dropping hat amoujnt of money on the full builf in one go, so im basically buying it in small stages lol.....
Hi mate, i havent got a mod at the moment, i currently ride a zoo pitbull but i want to try out a mod cause i feel i would be better on a mod.
Ive got about £250 saved up at the moment and its my birthday in august so im gona gradually buy the parts and hopefully by my birthday it will be complete.
Thanks for the replies everyone
Cheers Chris

Hi boys and gals
I've been thinking about building up a Monty 221pr, but i dont no weather to save up and buy the bike complete or to build it up with different parts.
If i was to build one up i would use the echo 06 rims. I've heard some good reviews about these rims but i just wanted to know how they compared with the Monty rims which come standard with the 221pr.
Here is the Monty 221pr
Thanks very much

is that the 4 wheel or 2 wheel drive one? i was thinking of getting a t-maxx. is it any good?
Yeah its four whel drive. There really good, loads of fun : . As standard they go 40mph and have two gears . I take mine to local dirt jumps and its taken alot of bashing and its never gave me any problems. Top truck

Heres my Traxxas T-maxx. Everything is standard at the moment but when i get some spare cash i might replace the plastic parts for metal.
Here it is:

I guess so, cheers for the help. 30GB it is then.
Also one more question. When I watch videos on it is the picture all crappy. Like on my phone I've converted some videos to watch on that and the picture is terrible.
Cheers.
Yo
I havent got one but i watched some videos on my mates one and the quality is excellent, nothing like phone videos. I'll definately be getting one when i have the money
Chris

Yeah i would go for a buggy/monster truck because there so much fun. You can take them anywhere, and some do go pretty fast.
I've got a t-maxx, had it about a year and its took alot of bashing and it is still going strong. I brought mine second hand of ebay for £150.
Chris

I'd be up for buying it.

yo luke
I feel so sorry for you man. just when your bike was running good some f***er steals it.
I really hope you find it, i've asked some people around the area to look for it.
Good luck man
Cheers Chris

Was that the same bike i photoshopped with the bars?
Yeah it was. I decided to get the green bars. I think it looks quite good.
Cheers Chris

I couldn't find any shops that sold them when i was looking for some, so i tried ebay and i got a yellow hs 33 brake brand new for £25.
Not all of the brakes on ebay are new but you might be able to find something.
Hope i helped
Chris

Thanks for the replys everyone .
I really want to ride it, but cant as it has been snowing and all my pallets are slippery as f**k.
