onza wanabe Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 Right people looking at getting back into trials now and want some advice www.tartybikes.com have the Echo lite full bike build for sale and i would get it but would get rear hs33 but im now stumped weather to get that or the neon bow any advice on them both. Thanks . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 Personally I'd go for the echo, dual discs on mod looks like the way to go currently and that has a very nice setup. Also if you decide you really don't get on with the discs you can always stick a rear magura on it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the problem the new echo frame doesn't come with 4 bolt mounts if you go to tarty bikes go to echo lite 2011 (dual disk) and click enlarge the pic the new frame is the one with the black rims (missing the 4 bolt mounts) so what i am planning on doing is buying the bike with a rockman maladie frame + a rear hs33 and there i got a cheap rockman maladie setup lol same price as what i would of paid for the neon bow just over.

Kieran Morrison Posted July 31, 2011 Report Share Posted July 31, 2011 (edited) Go for the neon bow! Echos snap easily Yeah, for a basher like you Echo's dont snap easily, ive had mine for a year now and its fine, the newer ones are probably stronger. Use a bash ring though, and not a bash plate, and you wont do what Darren did to his And the echo is really nice!
