omgnoseat Posted May 8, 2009 Report Share Posted May 8, 2009 (edited) Posted this in an other topic but didn't get any response, so figured to make a new topic.Right I´ve got my echo lite frame for a while, selling my monty pr tomorrow so it´s time for some new parts turned.gifAlready decided on everything except the wheelset.I have to decide between a try-all wheelset:http://www.rideactive.com/shop/index.php?cPath=74_62[it's the special offer €175 one]or an echo wheelset:http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?pr...;category_id=61+http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?pr...;category_id=61Theyre the same price.What would you recon I should do?The try-all is probably lighter, but I don't know how long they would last, or if the lower weight is worth the lower strength?Opinions?

streetjibs Posted May 8, 2009 Report Share Posted May 8, 2009 cant comment on the echo wheels, and the tryall wheels link doesnt seem to work for me.i have been using the tryall singlewall rims on tryall hubs for 6 months or more now. the wheels are fantastic! never gone out of true, and im known for doing bikelength gaps with 90deg turn, which is a test for anywheels. unless your a super basher or a big drop junkie.. id go the tryalls i havent had good experiences with echo parts - so maybe bit biased.. anyways hope it helps!

omgnoseat Posted May 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2009 try alls are fine....can take a bashing pretty well also lighterbut dont hold a grind as well as an echo rimThanks, seems like the try-alls will be good enough.. bothers me that they don't fit my colour scheme though haha, but oh well.Just to be sure, the try-all hubs will be compatible with an echo lite frame right?

ginger allen echo Posted May 9, 2009 Report Share Posted May 9, 2009 Thanks, seems like the try-alls will be good enough.. bothers me that they don't fit my colour scheme though haha, but oh well.Just to be sure, the try-all hubs will be compatible with an echo lite frame right?Yep they will fit. If they rims dont siut your colour scheme then just strip the paint off them with some caustic soda. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
