matt middler Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 I know a couple of lads that ride the 06 control and they love it. Cant really help with the other points, but it is a good frame.http://www.selectbikes.com/index.php?act=v...p;productId=156 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CraigMackay Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 (edited) If you get one, make sure to run a booster for the magura, not too stiff rear end, leaves you with a poor feel on the lever without a booster. I used the 4 bolt heatsink - did the job perfect.Couldn't tell you the exact brake mount spacing BUT, it was wide enough for a tryall rim and new coustpads with the cnc backings, so wide enough to fit near anything!only pic I can find of it, was a while ago I had it. Good frames though, I'd recommend!EDIT : just noticed you said 'Echo Control' ah well its there for anyone that wants it Edited February 17, 2008 by CraigMackay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash-Kennard Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 06's are better imo. similar strength, pretty sure its slightly lighter, shiney ride better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conor the basher. Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 Wow i loved my 06 it taped sooooo well, really amazing frames imo.Also i had a uber big dent in th down tube ( looked like it was gunna snap the bike in half ) and it didnt really affect the frame in any way.
