  1. Dont think i ever had a puncture with my try-alls
  2. in my opinion the only thing the maxis is better at is the bounce, but if you bought a sticky lite it would have though bounce too.
  3. oh, i see, didnt realise the 11's come with 4 finger blades.
  4. Just the rear, you wont need to change the chain, just shorten it. you could try 18-13, any harder you may struggle to get on with trialsy stuff.
  5. You can change the rear sporockt to make it harder, What ratio are you currently running (count the teeth on the freewheel and the sprocket)
  6. Them blades look really long. was that an option or is that the standard blade?
  7. I like it, Old school with nice fresh colour.
  8. Why would you boast about something like that, most people on here will now probably think you are a right nob now. Think you should edit it and remove the last bit, you will get more help that way. Oh and my vote is for echo urbans, light and strong
  9. Its new so not sure how strong it is yet, it ground nice though, and works well with my pads Were riding sturry woods, apparantly there is an old motorbike trials place there. were meetin at 2 if your up for it.
  10. Cor give me a week mate, im not that bad lol. Was gonna go for the koxx but a few things put me off, so went for the echo.
  11. I love it, it seems pretty much impossible to hit the down tube on anything due to the high bb. You do need a high front end though. Im gonna stick with the stackers cos i dont fancy a mod stem.
  12. Mine work fine, might water bleed them though, but other than that, they are great Think the head tube on the frame is quite short, i dont want to loose front end height as the bb is so high and im 6ft 4" Bet you cant wait. was over in your town today actually, had a good session on it there. Works fine mate, no problems with chain tension at all and the brake mounts are all aligned. oh and i am really tall lol And it does come with the crank bolts
  13. They grow on you mate, they look better in the flesh!

  15. As you know, im coming, but im meetin hoby earlier
  16. A 26" echo lite mod? are you sure? So someone has stole your 3 bikes? Where from?
  17. I liked it till i see you riding next to a railway, I work on the railway and its a dangerouse place, Its stupid to tresspass, your puttin your self at danger, and also if a train driver was to have a near miss with you it could cause him majour stress!
  18. im gonna try and come if the mifey lets me lol. Also my friend is on a 24, will he be able to ride?
  19. thats the norm gear ratio for a mod mate, feels perfect.
  20. Mainly kids mate, it doesnt bother me personally, as long as it has lots of engagements, and is reliable then i dont care, although it just so happens i have an echo sl, which is all of the above and f**kin loud. lol. The sound does indicate good, strong engagements.
  21. I found it easy to gap on a stock compared to a mod. I mainly ride natural but in general, i feel more controlled on the stock but for a laugh the mod always wins though.
  22. Think the best for value for money is the 2011 echo pure
  23. Looks good mate, I like the the way the wheels change colour with the fade of the frame! top stuff
  24. like said, practice on natural stuff like rocks. There is routes for all different levels such as beginner, novice, intermediate, expert and elite so it doesn't matter what level you are. I done my first comp recently and loved it!
