You will need: Lots of Grease 8mm allen key Crank puller Splined BB tool Large adjustable spanner I find it easier to wash my bike before i go putting any new stuff on because you may put you hand in some dirt or dog mess. 1. Take crank arms off. To do this, undo the 8mm Allen key bolt. Take your crank puller and apply a small amount of grease on the threads as this will help to not strip the threads inside. Screw in the crank puller and turn clockwise. Slowly the crank will start to come off. You need to do this on both sides. 2. Now to taking out the actual Bb. Start on the left side (Which is the Non-Drive side) you need to but your Bb tool into the located positions. Once in make sure you hold the tool in position whilst turning it Anti-clockwise. 3. Now you need to take of the Right hand side (Which is the Drive side). Do exactly the same before making sure the tool doesn’t slip off. This time it you need to turn it clockwise. 4. Once removed you need to degrease/Clean the threads make sure there’s no dirt what so ever. This is because the dirt might damage your threads. 5. Now apply LOTS of grease (This may get a little messy). Now comes to fitting your new bottom bracket. Start with the left hand cup (Non-Drive side). Screw it in Clockwise, using your fingers, as it shouldn’t be that tight. 6. Now its time for the Drive side. This needs to be screwed in Anti-Clockwise into the frame. Again using your fingers. 7. Now you need to tighten it all up (Using your BB tool and Spanner). Do each side in turn. So tighten left-side two rotations and the right-side two. As the cups get closer to the frame you will not need to turn it that much. Now check it’s all tight and flush against the frame. 8. Finally attach you crank arms. You can put a light smear of grease on the Bb axle and on the Crank bolts. Then clean it all up. Pack your tools away and enjoy a non-creaking, smooth Bb. If your Bb is creaking on your first ride this maybe because you need to 'face' your Bb shell. Any Good Bike store can do this. I’m not taking a responsibility for any damage done to your bike, yourself or your mums new carpet. (Y) Hope it helps. :-

The ECHO HIFI or the GU!

I use old intertubes but there a bit thin! i like the idea of hose pipe :angry: Good one Lovatt :ermm:

Nice pictures and maybe pull out posters. Product reviews and where we can get them from. Nexts years products! Locations of good spots and instructions on how to get there. Instructions/Tutorials on what moves to pull, how to pull them and when to pull them. Love the idea of a trials bike mag. Love to see it on the shelfs :blink:

Thanks mate. There nice rims, how much you pay for them? And yeah i think it is Try-All tape. I saw chrome rim tape once and just fell in love with it (Y) lol

Yeah i was thinking New Black Echo Rims on New Black Fixed Rear hub and New Black Non Disc front hub. Built with silver spokes. As for Tensioners, iam still unsure.

Spec(So far): Frame: Echo Pure (Got) Forks: Echo Pure (Got) Headset: Hope XC (Got) Handlebar: Echo Tough Bar (Got) Stem: Echo Control Stem (Got) Cranks: Echo Cranks and Echo BashGuard (Got) Brakes: Magura HS33 Front and Back Chain: Kmc kool chain Front Freewheel: ACS Claw 18t (Got) Need sugestions for: ChainTensioner: ? (Was thinking Surly singulator) Wheels: ? Any help will be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

Frame Handlebars Forks Cranks I'am bulding it up at the moment. Porkster what wheels are they? They look pretty sweet with the purple rim tape. Sorry about using links and not images. It wouldnt let me put images up for some unknown reason. (Y)

I E-mailed to the reliable people at Tartybikes.com after my last post and they said "With repeated scrubbing, it will come off, like any anodised surface. Its not as tough as, say, a Mavic CD rim though. Plus, most people elect to grind these rims." Well there you go! (Y)

Thats a beast of a bike! I want it (Y) Where did you get the rear cog, i just gotta have one! How much has it cost you?

I get the empression from the description on Tartybikes that it doesnt wear off, But iam not 100% sure.

Looks like you guys had fun! Pictures look great, Love the ones with the sunset!

What forks are they on your Zoo? I tried PM-ing you but didnt work!

I quite like them, not enough to buy them though.
