    Onza Comp

    There great! I got these because I wanted to use a bash ring and the Koxx ones of similar look cant have a bash ring on the 165mm versions. Been well worth the money so far! not much else to say about cranks...?
  2. Nice one Dan. I know you can do bigger than most of this... looking forward to the next one! nice bail at the end
  3. The pedals look like a great improvement on the body. Not sure I would want to pay that much for them though. Still think Ill get Echo TR Platforms after my TR caged ones die. I dont really understand why they have bothered doing a white try-all lite tire when hardly anyone uses them?
  4. The shoe and tshirt were easy but struggling with the other two

    Onza Comp

    Onza Comp Wheelbase: 1000mm Chainstay Length: 350mm BB Rise: 70mm Head Angle: 72 degrees Centre of BB shell to top centre of head tube: 590mm (23.23") Rockman Manus Wheelbase: 1005mm Chainstay Length: 350mm BB Rise: +80mm Head Angle: 71.5 degrees Centre of BB shell to top centre of head tube: 605mm (23.5") Well as you can see the difference in geo is minimal so I got used to it very fast! It feels less pogo like and more stable because of the lower BB but theres a bit less cockpit room for gaps and stuff. Ive only ridden it once but my friend said Im riding the onza better. Only a couple more rides will tell. Im hopeing the snow dies down a bit soon so I can get to some natural! Thanks for the comments everyone!

    I cut them off because I want to do the expert (UCI) route all year in 2011 and on street using your bash plate to get up stuff is DIRTY, so having a lighter bashring just for when you mess up works for me. Thanks for thr tip Jed. See you at the xmas special!

    Onza Comp

    That isn't a crack on the pedal, just dirt. I went out to the garage to check The bash ring needs resetting I think First time I've had one instead of a bash plate. Spec: Frame - Onza Comp Forks - Echo Urban Bars - Monty Grips - Trialtech Stem - Monty Headset - Echo SL Front Wheel - Try-All Hole rim, Rockman Bub Disc Hub, Sapim Spokes Rear Wheel - Try-All Reinforced Drilled rim, Rockman Bub Disc Hub, Sapim Spokes, Echo TR Sprocket Tires - Try-All Cranks - Rockman 165mm with Echo SL bolts Bashring - Trialtech Titanium half ring BB - Monty Pedals - Echo Caged 2010 Chain - Trialtech Lite Brakes - Monty/Hope Discs - Hope front/Rockman rear Loving it so far! The geo is pretty similar to the Rockman Manus I had but 10mm lower bb helps it feel less pogo like. Thanks to RocknRoll bikes for a speedy delivery on the frame! Best looking Onza comp ever? UPDATE: My lever clamps broke so Ive been running brakless for a bit. Just gave it a good clean and fitted a new rear axle ( ) I got some Echo Tr 2011 Platforms for xmas too. Best platforms I've ever used.
  10. Cant wait for this after missing the last round at Harden!
  11. Ive got a blue one. Looks great and works as a headset should
  12. I did this with my manus with monty ti cranks to make it work. It was really tight though. I had to try a few different sized spacers before both sides didn't rub.
  13. Snow rides can be fun sometimes. Last years xmas ride was just icey in places. Nothing us northerners cant handle
  14. everyone happy with that date? think its the usual date.... Meet at granite between 10:30-11:30. Art gallery after that if your late. Ill expect to see all you locals there and it would be great to see some people from Hull, Sheffield e.t.c too. Lets not split up into groups like last time Tinsel and flashing lights optional Cant wait! Who's coming?
  15. Pretty interesting article about him from the Sunday Times on there.
  16. All that massive riding must be doing something to your head if you think thats appropriate music for a video.

    Slick Tyres

    What country do you live in? The weather in the uk is pretty much always wet at the moment. I dont know why you would ever think of running a slick in these conditions, especially if your riding natural too. Slicks are for summer/street/dry only I reckon and even then I would much prefer to run something with tread on it.
