It was listed a while ago dude. Still worth a watch though

This looks awesome!! Never heard of that v brake before? May i ask where you got it? Im after a decent v for my speed race. Thanks James

Gorgeous bike dude. So jealous!!!!!

Hi Does anyone know of anywhere i can get Speed Race frame decals from? Ive had a poke around on google and cant come up with anything. Any help greatly appreciated James

Speed race 26" frame and echo 4 bolt - v adaptors for me.

Yep its decided . . . The speed race is going to get polished!! Polished frame, black forks, white trial tech hubs, black spokes but with what colour rims!!!

Hhmmmm should i go polished on my new 26" speed race build i wonder??!! That would answer the ongoing 'what colour should i paint my new frame' question that is rapidly getting on my girlfriends nerves!!

Im confused!!! What makes the echo such a bad brake? Are they just not up to the job on a 26"? Seems that there is a universal hatred of them so will maybe give it a miss. As for maggies, ive never been a huge fan to be honest. I have always found the lever to be uncomfortable, they are a pain to bleed and never seem to stay properly set up for long. If my speed race had a disc mount in the rear i would try double disc (controversial i know :-P) My xtr with dx lever always had plenty of power back in the day with a bit of tar on the rim with no grind. Hmmm, why oh why is that echo brake so bad, everything else they make seems so good!! Thanks for all the help guys James

Hi all I am trying to decide whether to go for an xtr v or echo disc on the front of my 26" speed race i am building. I want an uber light build with echo sl forks so would obviously need the beautiful echo 4 bolt-v mounts!! Has anyone had much experience with this set up? Do v brakes work ok on reverse mount forks Will it suffer from flex/play whilst gapping to front etc? Also, i may run a v on the rear too but again this would involve more adaptors as the speed race has 4 bolt mounts. Are people having much success with rear v's these days. I used to run one on my pashley back in the day. Any help greatly appreciated. James

Would orange work with a load of white parts though i wonder? Plus i think i fancy some fluro rims?!?! Is that a bit dated now though?! Cheers James

Erm . . . . No!

Gilles is killing it!!!!

Yeah that is an odd choice of bar position!! And yeah its pretty jumpy for me too.

Awesome!!! some seriously nice places to ride there

Hi all So i am in the process of getting my new frame (speed race 26) i have decided i will strip it and get it powder coated but really cant decide on colour!! I think i want to use a lot of white trial tech parts on the build so whatever colour i opt for needs to look good with white. Any one got any thoughts or pics of their speed race? Cheers James

. . . . and i thought i had skinny legs!!

Really enjoyed this video!! That is a sweet place to ride!!!!

Hey all Coming back to trials (once i have a bike built) after many years away and was wondering if there are any riders in or around rugby (warwickshire) Thanks a lot James

CONTACT!!! yeah thats the one!!!! I miss those old VHS vids. Loved the soundtrack to Evolve. Thanks for sorting that one guys. James EDIT - Thanks for the link Danny by the way, appreciate it.

I think his style still looks good today!! Loved that vid years ago and still do now. Does anyone know where i can see his section from the 'Evolve' video where he rides in Stratford etc (tried youtube etc couldn't find it). I remember that bit being pretty good. James

Really enjoyed the video!! I like seeing competition vids, really good riding. James

Amazing riding!! nice course to ride on too

Very very nice. I'm a big fan of this frame, looks like a nice build too!! James

Thanks all, Haven't been around for a few days so hadn't realised i had been validated. Yeah, there were some good riders on the Megamo team back in the day. It was watching Dani Comas and Caisso vids that got me into the Megamo brand i reckon. James
