Metal Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 (edited) UPDATE...New red (pink) echo rim on the rear thanks to nathie wafie can set my brake up propperly now, its so much nicer Wheelbase is a massive 1110mm compared to 1055 of the ashton, really liking the extra room though. Got some problems setting up the rear brake as the rims to thin, people keep saying get tensile mounts but i'm notsure if they will work moving the pads in. Wont the top of the slave just hit the part of the mount that the bolt goes through?Anyway crappy phone picks..

abtrials Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 you can get a new wider rim for not much more than the mounts just do that and re-build the wheel it will be better all round then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aener Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 you can get a new wider rim for not much more than the mounts just do that and re-build the wheel it will be better all round thenPlus the fact that he's right, and the offset mounts can only move the slaves further out.Turn 'em 'round and they just function like normal moutns.

RossMcd Posted March 15, 2009 Report Share Posted March 15, 2009 Is that Ross Mcarthur`s old frame looks interesting?If it was Ross Mcarthurs then it was mine too which i got from ben slinger! So if it is Ross Mcarthurs old frame it is doing well! I only got rid of it due to the geo. I absolutely hated the geo! They look good though! and that deffo looks good!
