  1. Actually they were released in March last year, and it should have been the same this year. But there could be numerous reasons for a late release, shipping problems etc.
  2. I think it would look better from a distance All the little stars, strange shapes and whatever that thing is that joins the two tubes just ruin it.
  3. I think mud and water in any freewheel would f*ck it up, and I'm sure you will fine a lot more people who have had problems with Tensile freewheels than the two Echo ones.
  4. That looks swish! really nice! A higher BB is needed though
  5. Really good Steve, worked well And some great riding too!
  6. Mine did exactly the same, as said before GT85 is the answer.
  7. Surely as soon as you got even the smallest amount of scratches on them they would become a lot weaker?
  8. Thats what i thought it was...
  9. Does the frame not flex a lot without the booster? That carbon looks sweet, wish i had the knowhow to do something like that.
  10. Gave my rim (Onza Zoot 24) a grind on Friday, After the grind, i swapped my pads round, but the back brake felt stupidly flexy so i swapped them back. Then the rear pads (TNN Belaeys) wouldn't work at all. Ground the rim again and they worked better but very average still. It was a very harsh grind. Went out in the rain yesterday and the rim got a little muddy, but it was only from dirt washing from the tyres and very thin watery mud at that. Checked this morning, and my rim is completely smooth and the brake was insanely bad. The grind has completely worn down in 1 ride, Is it to do with the conditions or do i just have a sh*tty rim? I'm getting fed up of having to grind my rims 1-2 times a week just to ride for 2 days at the most, are there any solutions?
  11. Going to try and get them all in this year, should be good
  12. Will be there around 11ish, short notice so don't expect much interest but still. Anyones welcome to come along. Cheers, Paul
  13. This IS because a large amount of people are right handed, and find it generally easier for them to have it on the right as they have no front brake and feels better for them.
  14. Rockman and Trialtech FFWs are exactly the same, pretty sure the TryAll one is too. My Trialtech was utter sh*te, skipped constantly, my friends one does too and have heard many bad stories about Rockman/TryAlls too. If it was me, i would just save up for a better one
  15. Saw his profile on the Trialtech site, really wanted to see this vid! He is really good, I'm really going to try hard to get to a similar level as him before i hit 14! New goal for me
  16. Its on my timetable, well 'Inside Out' is on. And I'm BBC East Midlands so i don't see why it wouldn't be on others EDIT: The shows on, but there is no trials slot in the show.
  17. Where did you get the rims? Looking for some but they aren't on Tarty
  18. Some massive moves in there, but thats always expected with you And is that the Bionic gone as well now? That didn't last too long!
  19. I've got that Echo 24 too and they are amazing! So lovely to ride. They both look really nice.
  20. Its an SL so it shouldn't skip anyway and i wont be riding in the next few days, i'll just flush it out.
  21. Ahh right, GT85 should do the trick then, cheers!
  22. Right, so i gave my bike a clean with a power washer yesterday after it got extremely muddy down at the local moto club Since i cleaned it my freewheel has sounded rather strange (its an SL) Before the engagements were very loud and responsive, but now its a very dull and quiet sound with a fainter clicking noise. I thought maybe it was full of water so i left it to dry out overnight, but it still sound the same and doesn't seem to pick up as fast as before Does anyone know what could be wrong with it? Would a good spray with some GT85 sort it out? All advice appreciated. Cheers, Paul.
  23. But you could use just a normal disk hub for disks, vees and maguras? A certain mount hub isn't needed to use a rim brake.
  24. Looks pretty real to me
