Awesome cheers dude! ill have a look into it. I had Middleburns on before and they were rather uber (and that was the square tpr one). ill probably go for a pro 2, i cant go from 72 engagments to 24!!

Right I left the trials scene a few years ago now to concentrate on DH. Ive been doing abit more overtime latly and want to build up my 2003 Echo Urban (probably considered oldskool by now). All i need to get it running is BB, Cranks, Front disc brake and a rear wheel and tyre. Due to me loosing touch with the trials community can you fella's be kind enough to reccomend the components i desire and mabey a decent shop to get them from. Budget is around £300. im not wanting a CK (i wish i had kept mine though) as im not getting serious just a mess-about bike.
Cheers, and thanks in advance!!!

i own a Muddyfox Drift with super T's instead of the standard Juniors and an echo urban (which is for sale to fund a street bike).

all of it is less than a year old except for the frame which is just over a year. everything is in mint condition but the frame has the usual scratchs.

the frame has the usual scratchs but no dints and no cracks as the bike has never been riden to its full potential. most of the parts are less than a year old aswel. i have no idea how much i have spent on the thing but its got to be over a grand i think. anyway could someone please advise me on how much to sell it for.
cheers ma dears

look in the faq to work it out (Y)

echo urban can take a koxx rim but it has to be a good build and you can only fit a 2.35 with about 2mm clearance each side

mr. men lol funny 6/10

put all the rim ERD's (Effective Rim Diameter) in here and all the nessecary hub dimentions for using online spoke calculators in here. hopefully tart will be able to help loads :turned:
-
errrrrrr i dont like :lol:
-
the rear mech has to be used with the rear hub as the mech bolts onto the hubs axle. and with it being shimano the freewheel wont last long. and the cranks look overkill but nice (if you get me lol)
Grrr... Stupid Tight Cranks!

get some Plusgas (or any other penatrating oil) and spay aload on the area. Leave it for a good few hours, then give the crank a good thwack with a rubber mallet. Then try with the crank extractor. that might work.
