  1. Weigh that thing, you're probably beating Hermance's bike.

    Very TRA like riding. Loved it.
  3. Well, I really didn't want to see thomas adapt to the manifesto style, I wanted to see ryan adapt to Ohler's style. I think it would have been better that way...video didn't seem very good for a year's worth of filming, and teasers and what not. 25 minutes of footage for a year of riding all over the world? I feel jipped.
  4. I've had this EXACT same problem. You can do 2 things: 1. Take wd40 or some other kind of spray lubricant and spray the inside of your housing and some of the cable. Don't get any of this shite on your rotor or pads though. 2. Replace the housing and cable. Also make sure that you're not using derailleur housings.
  5. I've had two sets of echo pads, 06 and 07. Both are Shite. When you run them on a smooth rim, you need wayyy too much tar to get a good hold, and then they don't unlock well. Just forget about running echo pads on a grind, they wear out in less than a day. And they have shite lock on a grind as well. I've since gotten rock blue pads, and all my braking problems have gone. Best pads ever
  6. Someone should put up a link to a downloadable source of this video. Youtube eats the quality.
  7. I've got an older king, I think every time that it's skipped it was a drivetrain skip, not the hub itself...and it's never happened while doing anything. Great hub so far. Not too impressed with the Sh!tty echo rim though...
  8. Unless you're a tank, you don't need something as heavy as an Echo rim. Go for Try-all or DOB.
  9. What's the geo on the stock frame?
  10. People need to stop saying how they "think" a rim will hold up. Base your opinion on actually testing them! Giver a shot man!
  11. Great review! I have a set coming to me in a few days. Can't wait to get them, and get them all laced up But I intend to grind them...so I'll have to find a way to make the grind sharp. What pads would you recommend? I'm running Rock pads right now, would they do?
  12. Thank you so much max! Great review
  13. Stock, mods are for sissy boys!
  14. I'd like to hear some reviews about the DOB rims. Any takers?
  15. I've got a set of DOB magnesium rims on the way. I can't wait to give them a go.
  16. ...It's not. 25 minutes of "no setup or recovery hops". I hate the manifesto style so much, all it does is limit the rider.
  17. I've got an echo rear rim, I find the damn thing is way too heavy, and it has flatspotted in a million places. The rim is so out of round it's rediculous.
  18. Well, there are a lot of things to look at when choosing a rim. Side to side strength, how easily they flat spot, weight, shape, color, etc. But when it all boils down, what would YOU choose? Go ahead and post why you think your choice is best.
  19. haha, nice bike. I like my brother's toxsin more though! haha He's got a blue echo front wheel for it, but it's not laced up yet, and a try-all tire: Brent's Toxsin
  20. I had preordered mine, and they never sent it. I had to email him twice about it, and in the second email, I threatened to take it up with paypal. Then he got back to me, and actually sent me a dvd. Supposedly he had sent one when I preordered, then sent out another when I sent him the second email(express delivery), but I only got one(the express delivery one). You might have been jipped, so I'd email him about it.
