Greetings Posted July 28, 2007 Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 (edited) Thanks to the owner of trials.pl i have been given the chance to ride a Control L for a couple of days. This will allow me to fine-tune the geometry of my Triton before Dimitri gets down to making it. Still haven't given the Echo a ride, it's been pissing down all day today Feels pretty good though, it'll definitely be a good bike to ride.Before:After:Edit:Measured the CS of this frame, turns out it's identical to the Adamant (372mm) so I'm on my old gearing now with perfect chain tension Edited July 28, 2007 by Inur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted July 28, 2007 Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 In short, le sex.Have another two badgers: :badger:You must have about 6 now? I might start awarding them like krisboats does his points thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loffa Posted July 28, 2007 Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 (edited) The adamant looks lush.But.. The rear cog looks huge. What's the gear ratio? 18:18? And what's with the dual front brake adapter?Edit: I can see that the first adapter is either a +20 or +40, but you could just get yourself a 203mm Avid adapter and throw away the first adapter? = Less weight and stiffer brake.

Muel Posted July 28, 2007 Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 The first adaptor enables it to have either 20mm or 40mm bigger rotor, and the second converts it to post mount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted July 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 haha i think i only have 4 badgers so far Kuel indeed it'd be better to have one adaptor, but i primarily had a 180mm rotor, then found this adapor lying around and thought i'd put an 8" rotor ongear ratio is 18:17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janson Posted July 29, 2007 Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 18:17 is REALLY light. Got pics of the front tyre would be awesome, I might get one eventually... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
