r2wtrials Posted June 12, 2009 Report Share Posted June 12, 2009 Well, the exploding Tensile f/w meant i needed to not only replace that, but also it took out my 74kingz tensioner when it let go... as well as my bollocks nearly!!I have also fitted my old Hi-fi forks along with a new Echo tr72 f/w and tensile tensioner.... since last time i have also added the trialtech half bash ring, tryall disc, phatpads and have lost all the stackers to get the feel about right for riding with my knackered back.... looks high i know for a low BB bike but it is the difference between riding for 15 minutes with a low stem and bar or a couple of hours before the ibuprofen is needed like this!! ... and that is my new BBQ as well, no bling added to that.... yet!

craigjames Posted June 13, 2009 Report Share Posted June 13, 2009 looks really nice, high front ends are cool plus if it means you can ride then who cares what the norm is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r2wtrials Posted June 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2009 I am thinking of a new frame in the next few months that is likely to have a +30 or so BB so the slightly higher set-up i have now should suit that as well. See how spare cash goes and will choose between an Atomz, Limey3, zoo or an Ashton (if it ever arrives!!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davey1991 Posted June 15, 2009 Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 Looks nice, finally someone with a reasonable stem on a stock, seems like something i'd like to ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r2wtrials Posted June 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 Thanks for the compliments ... only going to change if the right deal and frame comes along.Had a couple of rides on the new f/w and it is so far very nice. Not one skip yet, the sound i am dreading now It has 72 take up points against i think the 60 of the tensile and for some reason i seem to be able to control the bike better on the back wheel with it.... no idea why, far too technical for me to think about whilst i am concentrating on my balance!! It also sounds very nice !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
