shetlandtrialsrider Posted April 14, 2010 Report Share Posted April 14, 2010 Hi, I am thinking about making a couple of changes to my zoo lynx. Thinking about changing tyres from echos to creepy crawlers or any other suggestions, and changing bars from echo tr to a set of risers not sure what to get?

PeanuckleJive Posted April 14, 2010 Report Share Posted April 14, 2010 Monty eagle claws! fantastic tyres As for bars, I'm gonna sit in on this and see what people say because I'm tempted to swap out my flatbars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philgresty Posted April 14, 2010 Report Share Posted April 14, 2010 if u dont mind payin a bit extra go for tryalls, i run em an ther apot on, as for bars, either trialtechs or montys, both ride really well, very comfortable but the trialtechs are longer so give a bit more room and a wider stance when on the bike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Dark Posted April 14, 2010 Report Share Posted April 14, 2010 Echo tyres are extremely heavy, not all that grippy and pretty dead. Definitely worth changing to Creepy Crawlers. The Echo TR bars are risers ...sooo if you're talking about the Urban bars or any other Echo flat bars I'd say change to a set of Monty 221ti/Viz pro 720/ Try-all No-war Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeanuckleJive Posted April 14, 2010 Report Share Posted April 14, 2010 Kl front and rear ? I'm yet to try one on the front, but they're good for rear for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smithy83 Posted April 14, 2010 Report Share Posted April 14, 2010 try all carbon bars for the win if you can stretch that far,the comfiest bars i ever owned and iv had alot over the years.cant comment on tyres though as i ride stock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Vandart Posted April 14, 2010 Report Share Posted April 14, 2010 I have try all tyres front and rear on my lynx they are fab. I have creepy crawlers for sale hardly used, see my for sale topic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rab shropshire Posted April 14, 2010 Report Share Posted April 14, 2010 if you want the ultimate setup, I would go for monty on the rear, try all on the front and a set of trialtech bars. i have a cheap set of czar risers for sale so you could try risers before committing 50 quid to a new set.

Chambers Posted April 15, 2010 Report Share Posted April 15, 2010 go for the v!z pro 720 bars made such a diffence when i got mine could go higher further the lot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex-trials-boy Posted April 15, 2010 Report Share Posted April 15, 2010 go for the v!z pro 720 bars made such a diffence when i got mine could go higher further the lot Hey mate im currently running monty eagle claw on the front and maxxis cc on the rear and for the bars get some trialtech high riser (im currently using them) and they'll be the best buy ever, the difference they make is unbelievable.

Mark W Posted April 15, 2010 Report Share Posted April 15, 2010 Echo tyres are extremely heavy... On the rear: Echo: 990g Monty: 1045g Maxxis: 1069g Try-All: 1088g Not that keen on how they feel to use though... if you want the ultimate setup, I would go for monty on the rear, try all on the front and a set of trialtech bars. i have a cheap set of czar risers for sale so you could try risers before committing 50 quid to a new set. This dude knows where it's at. Monty rear and Try-All front owns. The Try-All's nice and light but still super grippy, whereas the rear Monty has pretty good puncture resistance, good stability on off-camber surfaces and is ridiculously grippy. Definitely where I'd put my money. Bars wise, can't really go wrong with either of the bars Trialtech make Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shetlandtrialsrider Posted April 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2010 Ok kl thanks for replys guys looks like its gonna be eagle claw on rear and try-all on the front if they are good for street forgot to meantion that. Bar wise im looking at the trialtech sport riser or the V!z Pro 700/720 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Vandart Posted April 16, 2010 Report Share Posted April 16, 2010 Doh I meant I have monty's for sale and a part worn tryall front too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
