  1. My Eclat seat is pretty sweet, only weighs 200g with the seat post included. got mine from Evans cycles..

    24", 36h Rims.

    Chris Holm 24" rims are 36 hole, and are 47mm wide. Link. Edit: I don't think 47mm would be too overkill on a 24", I would get one if my ProII had been 36 hole. I went with the Trialtech rim though as it was the widest 32 hole rim I could find..
  3. This like my favourite video ever Definatly wanna go see one of these demos next year, atmosphere looks amazing! Any planned for Wales?
  4. It would work with the Tensile tensioner, would take about a minute to re adjust it properly to the secondary gear, wouldn't be too bad atall..
  5. Snowies on a grind are amazing, one of the best pads I've used in terms of hold, they just don't slip. Only my old Heatsink Reds and Koxx Browns have held this well. Definatly put a nice deep grind on, as they work amazingly in the wet too..

    F1

    It was Hamilton's inside pass that caused the puncture to his rear tyre, and this bump also damaged Hamiltons front wing. Gutting finish for Barricello, but we're British so lets celebrate I was really hoping for a world championship fight at Abu Dabi though:( would of been an epic finish to the season..
  7. My Echo bottom bracket almost a year old now and its still smooth as ever, no damage on the splines, hasn't bent and makes no dodgy sounds - pretty good for a light bottom bracket. I'm sure it will have a number on the bearing race, then you just order that bearing..
  8. The dropouts should atleast be perfectly horizontal - as apposed to what you've drawn, looks like they point down which is random. Needs a 'built in'/intergrated booster. Thicker tubing (= bigger weld areas). Pointless little tubes on the seat post. That area would be better if it looked more like the 04 Zoo's, Onza Zoot, Ozonys Canibal deisgn; where there are three tubes all branching outwards from the BB area upwards. Perhaps have longer gussets to spread the stress out more? Finally, the chainstay tubes shouldn't just weld onto the BB, a yoke of some sort should be in place for a stronger area.

    Heatsink Or Tnn

    Heatsink whites/snowies - they're definatly a good investment
  10. Whites and yellows are supposed to be the same anyways - I love my Heatsink Whites though (:
  11. Ozzy doesn't even run a bashplate, he runs a bashring - he was simply pointing out that it is easier to balance on a bashplate. And I found bashplates came in so handy when learning to ride trials, when you don't have much balance and so on..

    Zbm?

    its like that because he sidehops to his kicking foot.
  13. Please bring back heatsink reds, they are the shit. I've just fitted a pair of heatsink whites on my rear vee and they are amazing, great bite, and really good hold - but not as much hold as reds gave me. Plus the reds were nice and quite these white pads are deafining.. Backings look good
  14. Its the 05 model, however Deng kept producing these thoughout 06 too. Mine rode loverly - that was the short model though, yours looks a fair whack longer.
  15. If there was room for me that'd be sound.
  16. Count me in for that Nick, i'll be there on the 10th. Also are you going to the shipley comp? I need to sort out a ride..
  17. Tried it before, teeth just rip though the wood.
  18. The 'tartybikes stem' or a Try-all NUC stem would both be great upgrades for that, 125 X 25 would be an ideal geometry.

    Onza Ice

    But yours arn't the old style the original Zoo! bars from 2004 had a different logo (the writting was hollowed if you get me?), they were the high-rise ones. Yours are the same low-rise design that Dengs been making for the last couple of years... And you have to upgrade those forks, not only are they heavy as fook, but they'll be f*cking up the geo of your bike - they are are just too long.
  20. Echo tyres will last much longer than the other two, but on perfomance you can't beat a Maxxis.
