Petr Stephens Posted May 8, 2009 Report Share Posted May 8, 2009 What's better to buy, Echo Urban Rims OR Echo TR Rims?And the reason I want one of them rims is because I'm mainly buying because of the fact I can get them in white. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted May 8, 2009 Report Share Posted May 8, 2009 Urbans are proven to be super strong, TR's haven't been out long enough to have had sufficient testing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben John-Hynes Posted May 8, 2009 Report Share Posted May 8, 2009 Urbans. Beastly. Hold are grind so well, too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali C Posted May 9, 2009 Report Share Posted May 9, 2009 I would go with the TR. They are the same material as urbans (so hold grinds well) but are a bit lighter. If you are breaking these rims, I would be looking more at riding smoother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hdmackay Posted May 9, 2009 Report Share Posted May 9, 2009 (edited) I'd say go with the Urbans. I mean, the TR's are a whole 1g lighter. And for that mental extra 1g of weight on the Urbans you get thicker sidewalls for more grinds. Deeper sidewalls to make it easier to set up the brake. And you get a variety of colours.EDIT: Just realised you can get the TR in a variety of colours too.but still, I stand by my opinion. Get the Urbans.
