Borat Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 Hi everyoneI need some new toothed snail cams but was wondering which ones are the best to go with.Thanks Kieran.Hey mate, what frame do you have. If your snail cams do not reach for any reason, I have heard the ZHI snail cams are one of the largest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weirdoku Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 I've had Monty cams, Zhi cams, Trialtech cams and now Echo TR cams which I ahve to say are the best! They are micro-notched, made of steel and have moce more adjustability that other teethed cams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your snail cams do not reach for any reason, I have heard the ZHI snail cams are one of the largest. I have an Onza T-Mag 06 i drilled and threaded the holes for snail cams my self so getting bigger ones is not the problemMy main problem is my wheel keeps slipping an the chain goes really slack and its impossible to do trials like thatand i have Echo smooth snail cams so i need toothed ones as Ive heard they are alot more stable and better at keeping the back wheel in place.I got some ZHI snail cams and they are massive but there also smooth not toothed so thats why i wanted to know what toothed snail cams are the best to getKieran.I've had Monty cams, Zhi cams, Trialtech cams and now Echo TR cams which I ahve to say are the best! They are micro-notched, made of steel and have moce more adjustability that other teethed cams.Thanks i will try the Echo TR cams then were did you get yours from and how much are they?and there not like the small black Ecko snail cams (smooth) are they?Thanks Kieran.I've had Monty cams, Zhi cams, Trialtech cams and now Echo TR cams which I ahve to say are the best! They are micro-notched, made of steel and have moce more adjustability that other teethed cams.Thanks i will try the Echo TR cams then were did you buy them from and how much were they?and there not like the small black Echo (smooth) snail cams are they i know you said there toothed but i was just wondering.thanks Kieran.I've had Monty cams, Zhi cams, Trialtech cams and now Echo TR cams which I ahve to say are the best!

weirdoku Posted June 24, 2009 Report Share Posted June 24, 2009 Thanks for the advise Echo TR sounds good i just had a look at them and the teeth are tinyYou'll be surprised, the are indeed small but you can still feel the notches up against the cam bolt, mine has not failed me at all so far. They haven't shown any signs of being squashed either, all my other aluminium cams eventually got crushed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
