JonCongreve Posted April 12, 2006 Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 These are the first pictures i have posted of my bike. All pictures have been cropped slightly to reduce the size of them.[attachmentid=3743][attachmentid=3745][attachmentid=3744]I'm pretty happy with the spec of it now, and think it rides really well So let me know what you think of it.

Matthew_Gibson Posted April 12, 2006 Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 Very nice, nicer than mine like. 2 questions What rim?What rise?, lenght is the stem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonCongreve Posted April 12, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 Very nice, nicer than mine like. 2 questions What rim?What rise?, lenght is the stem?It's an Echo 48mm rear rim, and a Mavic 519 on the front.The stem's a Echo HiFi 130mm x 15 degrees. I've ran it with this stem for a while now, think it best suites it Thanks for the replies so far. I'm lucky with having the chain the right length to run it without a tensioner, and it's tight enough this way without being too tight so it's really good I'm gonna saw the bottom of my mech hanger off, to get it lookin a bit neater Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
