trialsiain Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 nice , what does that stem feel like and have you ever tried 150 x 30 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doddsy2801 Posted October 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 To be honest ive been away from the sport that long that it all feels totally new to me atm, especially being 24" as well. I haven't ever run a stem of this length or a 150 before, but just from hopping about briefly in my back yard it feels fine, I don't feel over stretched or to cramped up so all good atm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trials hoe Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 did you get it as a full build and get some extra goodies at the same time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doddsy2801 Posted October 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 did you get it as a full build and get some extra goodies at the same time? No got it as a custom build so I wasn't paying for parts I didn't want Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake. Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 No got it as a custom build so I wasn't paying for parts I didn't want Good choice. The standard spec is a load of shite, echo screwed themselves over there. They also need to give up with their brake and let the brake companies do that...

Doddsy2801 Posted October 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 I actually didn't mind the complete builds, they represent good value for money, but I wanted to run a dual magy set up, which meant I needed new breaks, a set of clamps, forks, I wanted a taller stem, buy the time Id added that to the cost of the complete spec it was cheaper to get a custom build. I'm happy with how it turned out, didn't know if the red parts would work but I think they look cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
