Davetrials Posted August 25, 2009 Report Share Posted August 25, 2009 People might actually buy these now, cos f**king hell they looked so rank on the echo site Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaarel Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 I don`t really gear about that bike but that BB looks awesome!is there any change to get it from Tarty anytime soon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason222 Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 Not a fan of the bike at all, but I must say, the workmanship on the rear end of that frame looks really nice, too bad they sorta skimped out on the front. Top and down tubes should always be welded together IMO. Non joined always feel so flexy in the front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spaceman Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 I would say the inspired is still the best, in terms of looks.I'm not a fan of the cnc'ed yoke, as well as the downtube - are they trying to make it stiffer with that odd cross-section shape?The inspired is smooth all round, everything looks right. But for the Echo and Adamant 24", hmm, i feel that it's like creating a 24" frame for the sake of creating one... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But for the Echo and Adamant 24", hmm, i feel that it's like creating a 24" frame for the sake of creating one...the echo has a much more rounded profile, it looks like a small control 09 to be honest, Im pretty interested in the echo but I need to ride one to tell if i like it or not.jamie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clawz114 Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 For the people moaning about the color, it comes in black too... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the trials mop Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 For the people moaning about the color, it comes in black too...I think it looks sooooo much better in black, it doesnt show how angular the down tube looks, but i think it would look better in a matt black to match the urban forks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Brodie Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 im not sure if i like it or not either.bb yoke is sexy thoughthe actual bb looks intresting!is it unique to the frame adam or will it fit any bike? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Grainger Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 (edited) looks pretty sweet, but the seat area looks a bit odd i think, think its to do with the silly low top tube like rowan saidEDIT: HAHAHA just checked the echo site, look at those beasts. tartys pics are deffinatly doing these bikes a huge favour.

Rusevelt Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 (edited) Looks better than the build on the Echo site. Deng has no intention of bringing out an A1 then? Edited August 26, 2009 by Rusevelt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadManMike Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 I love that, it's seriously sweet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 shame the tt is so low (like the freetrials)...Word. There's virtually no point bothering running a seat on something that low, plus for a 'streety' setup it just looks whack. Be interesting to see if a Mid/Spanish style BB takes off for trials...

Dan Thornton Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 Mmmm, doesnt look too bad,I think i prefer the Echo 24'' though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adam 94 Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 Thats my favourite 24" i dunno why Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted April 29, 2020 Report Share Posted April 29, 2020 Mwahahaha, MASSIVE bump for this as I've just bought the same frame. Despite the questionable design I'm pretty sure the geo on this is gonna be absolutely perfect for me but only time will tell. Just need to source some forks, bars, cranks and FFW (want to go freehub at some point) and she can be built up! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
