Teaming

Yea, I had a look a the one-on, but I'm into jumping mroe than street really. I've got a pair of dirt jams at the moment and they are wayyyy to heavy for my style. I really like the look of these 24/7s though (pics above). Look gorgeous and with lifetime warranty on frame, bars and cranks (Y) doody...... Jackery (Y)

Righteo, I'm putting together a 24" hopefully quite soon. I've not had any experience with them at all (only having 20" and 26" inchers) I was wondering if this set-up would be suitable: Frame: DMR rhythm Forks: Marzocchi Dirt Jam comps Wheelset: ???????? (need help with these) Headset: FSA pig / orbita Stem: Easton Vice CNC stem Handlebars: Easton ea70 risers Crankset: DMR crisis BB: ISIS gigapipe Front chainring: DMR saturn I've not got a huge budget, so let me know if I can improve this set-up for the similar amount of moeny please Cheers Jack EDIT: oooo I just came across these, what are these like? look amazing! 24 seven slack

I've been looking at these.... marzochhi forks They look quite nice and are on special offer for only 130 quid (Y) Do youthink htese would go well with a DMR rhythm? Jackery...

I'm finding it a bit too heavy and beefy. I want something that is quite a lot lighter and smaller. The DMR frames are quite small and they are quite thin, so thats what I'm looking to get hopefully (Y) Nothings really wrong with it, it just doesn't suit my riding. I'll have a looks at these manitou stance statics then :D cheers for the help Jackery (Y)

Yea, I may have to do that. I don't really want to use the comps because of the weight and my front end doesn't half weigh a tonne. Its so hard to lift up for manuals and bunnyhops, etc. I'll have a looksie at these 66's. I'm really keen on the DMR rhythm at the moment. Anyone had any experiences with them? Look immense (Y) Jackery.... (Y)

Hiya Looking to buy a new 24" jump bike and was wondering what suspension forks were probably the best forks money? Looking for around 100-120mm travel. Don't want to spend too much. (not over 200). I've got a pair of marzochhi comps on my kona shred at the moment and I'm quite keen on them, but I wouldn't mind something a bit lighter... Jackery (Y)

Yup I did a while ago, they were really nice, but I sometimes had them rubbing against my brake booster. (Y) But they've got loads of grip. Probably worth getting.... Jackery (Y)

At the moment, tartybikes have special offers on echo CNCed rims for only 45 pounds for the pair!! If they aren't your taste and actually want proper drilled rims then try viz rims (about 35 posted from vizbikes) or try-all rims. Another option could be the doodey onza ronnie rims (with hedgehogs) you can pick these up from tartybikes quite cheaply and they'll also build the rims up if you wanted! Jackery (Y)

I get this quite a lot as well, it could be the actual hub......what hub is it that you run?? Mine is an onza non-sealed hub and it wobbles in the wind! If thats not the problem then I reckon it maybe your chain tensioners coming loose....check your chain and if it is any tighter or looser than you set it as then you'll have your answer. Just try and keep your chain tensioners tight (Y) Jackery

Hmmm.....I think your best bet would probably be on the maxxis high rollers or maybe a set of tiogas. I have found thse are both really grweat tyres. You can get the high rollers from tartybikes or bikedock and tioga you can buy from bikedock or chainreaction cycles. Another choice maybe a set of michelin comps. I had these are were brilliant (Y) Jackery.... (Y)

There was a topic started abou this a day ago (Y) try searching for it (Y) Hoever, yup, its a pretty nice bike, pity its not really made for older, larger people otherwise I think koxx may get quite a few extra sales Jackery (Y)

Yea, I love long mods. This is my first short bike.....all the others hyave been pretty long. Not too keen on it at all. I used to have a zoo! python copy and they rode dam nice and loved it to bits. I'm hoping the zips are similar to them (Y) Jackery

Hiya I'm thinking of changing from an echo team short to somethign a bit longer like a zona zip. They look quite nice, but I wasn't sure to how they ride. Could someone who owns one maybe give me an idea to which bike they ride similar to and also could anyone give me the wheelbase of them? They look pretty similar to the python though, so do they ride similarily? Also, anyone heard of them snapping or cracking as yet? Cheers Jack

Oooooooo hows bout this.....for stock Hi-fi headtube Monty x-lite 06 down tube and top tube (the curvy design) zoo pitbull 04 design bb built in brake booster in a web sort of design that curves around back tyre zoo pitbull chainstays +20 bb rise :P Jackery

Yup, lean back quite a bit more and kick out......you've got to have quite a lot of trust in your brakes though. Another way I find to take the momentum out of my pedal hopping is to land right on the edge of something to stop the back wheel dead in its tracks. Then its a matter of forward hopping (without a pedal) to get right on top of the obstacle. Then you'll be nice and controlled for the next move. Hope this helps Jackery :P
