streetjibs Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 Yeah I know, when i got mine the only person that had posted one up was 'streetjibs'Quite pissed off when i discovered the whole world had bought them... looks really good dude! When i got mine, i got a spare frame (orange one) too. Its good to see one built up and soo nice!!!the tyres make all the difference in weight. Good work with vees. Similar build to mine, except iv now got white maggies f&r (yes after years of being a vee advicate) maggies are lighter but i do miss the feel of vees. Same tyres and be careful the 74. mine lasted bugger all time. now on the rohloff-it krew!top bike! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abtrials Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 (edited) looks nice!! Orange isnt my fave colour, but it seems good on your bike.(I want proof on weight though , stans is a lighter build and still weighs more)yea max is runing, dob rear rim and big betty tyre, that is like half the weight of stans try all and maxxis set up, also 74 kings is lighter than a rollholf, and the bb on this is only 230-240g's ish, and this has a mono ti light 28 spoke front wheel (non-disk)???

gathsano Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 I too am surprised at the amount of people buying these frames. Can you blame them though. I still think orange is the better option. Nice and LOUD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Duck Posted January 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 looks nice!! Orange isnt my fave colour, but it seems good on your bike.(I want proof on weight though , stans is a lighter build and still weighs more)Coming up! Was with stupid front tyre though (Highroller 2.1 folding) which was like 450 grams. Stan's tyres do weigh like half a kilo+ more than mine though it's all about the tyres Nice bike! Looks sweet in orange.One problem though... get a real front brake and some grippy tires The tyres are mint actually added pogostick affect from those. My old Hi Roller's grip was only slightly better... The kenda is beast too.Did my homework on the spec Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muel Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 I cry, that is very nice looking, but lighter than my new Echo!Ah well, I know I could save about 400g by getting an 08 frame and a new bb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muel Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 Which would cost £250+ Well, 08 Echo frame, -the second hand price of mine, + the price of a bb.I dunno what a hardly used 07 Echo Lite is worth, considering they are the same as the 08 maggy, about £140? Seriously though, I paid £130 for my short, and this has less scratches.I'm hypothesising, having just bought the bike, I am going to struggle to get to college next week, as I have £6.44 in my bank account.

Tom_ Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 Really? How?Welllll: first file those holes in your rims into nice big squares, then get a drill out and drill a million holes in everything frame, forks, bars, stem, cranks.sorted Light and strong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
