El Cristoff Posted June 22, 2007 Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 the '07 echo's are supposed to be really really strong, however, the onza drilled looks pretty pimp, so its up to you.pimpness or strength?1 vote for the echo's.Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robb_o Posted June 22, 2007 Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 Whatever you do, DO NOT get the Alex DX32 rim.i've learnt my lesson with that one lol.reason: ive managed to flat spot it within 2 rides.I've really gotta stop going for the cheap option.

Boswell Posted June 22, 2007 Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 I would get an echo rim on the back and a Onza hog drilled rim on the front. (extra light) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted June 22, 2007 Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 I would get an echo rim on the back and a Onza hog drilled rim on the front. (extra light)That is what I am getting.Make sure you get the echo 07 rim for the rear, the 06s were mega weak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant H Posted June 22, 2007 Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 hog rims are extreeeeeemely weakbut if your not harsh on the front put it on, but i'd say the try-all would be stronger on than the hog rim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Scarlet Posted June 22, 2007 Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 I agree with what has already been said, Hog on the front, Echo on the rear, or Echo on both.I like the front Hog's because the hogs are really big, makes your rim tape very visible, and you have the option of drilled sidewalls which look the sex.On the rear, the Hog's are tiny.

dangerous_dave Posted June 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 i ended up buying an echo for the front and a hog for the back (the wrong way round i know), but they didn't have any black rear echos and i like the pimperishness of the hog holes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALEX@BIKETRIALSFUN Posted June 22, 2007 Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 The echo 07's look so mush better than the onza ones and you can get them in colors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
