Loved that, just looks like you're having so much fun on the 24!

374 a month for a 3 bedroom end of terrace , with a couple of outbuildings / sheds

Definitely want to go to this !

Press fit is a great idea in my opinion , if it works fine for headsets and even 10 year old frames that have had multiple headset changes are still going , then bottom brackets should be fine.

In reply to jeff, exactly what mark said haha Cheers dman Built it and give it a pasting yesterday and seems all gravy. Loads stiffer than the tr it replaces which is always nice, and far better chain line

Keeping things in line after bonding All assembled looking pretty Finished weight 184gr including bolts , which makes it the 3rd lightest Hub on tarty

Soooo, front hub mk2 has been pretty well beaten and still very much in one piece so cue rear hub mk1! Widest flange spacing I could reasonably get away with ( whilst being symmetrical ) M10 ti fun bolts 7075 for shell and axle and spacers 28/30 carbon fibre shell Vudu glu to stick it all together

Hm , I reckon it could be done . Pm me

Nope no grief whatsoever !

Cheers guys

Side hops in my opinion are largely down to how Much fast twitch muscle You have , most of the best riders of the world go from a normal position to fully preloaded to extended in a very short amount of time.

First video on the echo 24, filmed by myself and edited by my girlfriend Zoey !

Looks great Dave , sweet seeing the thing together

Inspired Hex, with a lowered marzocchi air fork?

6082 is the uk equivalent of 6061, far lower strength than 7075 that most trials frames are made from. you'll buy at t6 temper presumably but after welding will be at t0 at the haz ( heat affected zone ). Without heat treating the area around the welds will be significantly weaker due to the rapid cooling of the metal resulting in the crystalline bonds in the metal not aligning correctly. Pretty sure I'm right in saying that.

Wouldn't be too hard to machine a 1.37" x 24tpi thread. Pm me

Would be pretty difficult to tap a thread that large nice and square , as above get hold of a bb she'll or ask a machinist to screw cut one for you

Anyone stripped down a vag brake rear calipers ? Mines seized and binding loads

Definitely don't go down the welding route , I'd send back and get a refund if it were me

If you've got the original , pm me

Just throw me your when when you've got time Treby

Poo 2 looks good! Looking forward to seeing it all Together mate
