  1. echo cylinders do fit magur calmps (evo 2 ones included) but you need the plastic C clip like you would get on a magura. Also, if its not fitting due to the rim width (your post was a bit unclear to what was the actual problem) then a magura won't be any closer to fitting.
  2. if its thorns thats giving you the trouble, then the advice thats been given is good, if its pinch punctures, be smoother.
  3. inspired seat and post is pretty neat and light

    Bb Rise

    i had a short stint on an Ozonys Cannibal with a 45~ bb rise. I found it harder to land most moves, gaps were about the same distance, but when I landed I woud just fall off the back of the bike, same with taps and hooks. The main issue for me was sidehops, it completely ruined me! I was previously at around 48", but once I got on the Ozonys they went down to about 42". I kept on hitting the wheel against the side of the rock/wall instead of landing on top. It felt like I had to jump higher than I would on a lower bb bike.
  6. that's not quite old school. I had already been riding 5 years when that came out.
  7. true that, which is a shame because if they were more popular then more frames would come with the mounts which would mean I can ditch my heavy awkward adaptors and have a lighter, stiffer EVEN more powerful brake!
  8. well, my bolts in my vee lasted 5 months or so, thats until I took them out just to ease my mind.
  9. I built those wheels, I thought it was a little odd that you wanted a rear silver rim and front blue, but it makes sence now. Bike looks really cool, I love old school builds!
  10. I did for quite a long time, but I now use steel just to make sure (I would use ti though if I had bolts long enough)
  11. it wasn't a switch between less power and over the bars power, but when your on the balance point on the front wheel just needing a tad more power, it was harder to feather. Normally you would squeeze your finger in a progressive manner, with the servo wave, I had to pull the brake in an almost linear way.....most annoying.
  12. yep, was me. Was nice of them to acknowledge me in the magazine....Oh wait
  13. that would be me getting my revenge on Stan with a pen when his back is turned
  14. your being weird, stop being weird!
  15. isn't that still the same place you get it? (not having a dig...I'll shut up now)
