you all say try-all are better just cause there lighter, but none of you have said about there strength!

I'm useing a echo on the rear and i have hit it quite a bit and it hasent dented and my mate has got a echo too and he hasent dented his so IMO get the echo

depends on if you want a really strong street bashers wheel or a natty wheel thats almost as strong :P

if anyone says that a echo rim is much heavier dont listen to them theres only about 8 grams in diference (weighed by myself)

but im running a try-all and havent had one problemo yet *touches wood*

People always say "echo's are stronger" but to be honest i have never had a problem with try-all rims, and i am the heaviest rider on this forum! The other thing that alot of riders will go on about is how an echo rim will hold a grind longer, it is true to an extent, but with the right pad combo etc a brake will work on a try-all for ages and still be imense, anybody who has ridden my bike will agree that my brake is stupidly good!

Yes the try-all is lighter which is a reason i run them.

You can not realy go wrong with either realy, to be honest.

Also, is this for 20 or 26inch?

His profile says mod Adam. :P

If you want a lightweight rim that holds a grind pretty well, have a look at the Monty TIs, I used to have one, and the grind lasted for about a month with Rock Blues, and I rode in the rain a couple of times.

I've had Try-Alls with grinds in the past, and they were OK, but no-where near as good as my Monty was.
