Mat Smith!! Posted October 31, 2009 Report Share Posted October 31, 2009 OH MY HOLY BOOSTER, whys it so high up? use smaller spacers and bolts LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canardweb Posted October 31, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2009 About vees: I just prefer a good old HS33About booster: sorry, but if it's lower, the backing of the pads will be locked by the booster so it would rub my rims!

ginger allen echo Posted November 1, 2009 Report Share Posted November 1, 2009 Your going to have such nice wrists if you keep your levers at that position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canardweb Posted November 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2009 Nope, I have to change it, as I already said, my freewheel is totally destroyed so I didn't get any chance to try the bike! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3dd Posted November 1, 2009 Report Share Posted November 1, 2009 Very nice, but it would obviously be easier to crack this and not the Limey? Echo is like 1.6kg... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canardweb Posted November 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2009 Very nice, but it would obviously be easier to crack this and not the Limey? Echo is like 1.6kg...nope, my friend has had the same frame for one year now, and it's still strong (even though my friend is fat!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R&D Posted November 19, 2009 Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 nope, my friend has had the same frame for one year now, and it's still strong (even though my friend is fat!)Canard, i'm really considering going for the Onza Limey, how did your frame crack? So would you not recommend it? PLEASE give some feedback regarding the Limey!Also, how is the Control treating you compared to the LImey?

Canardweb Posted November 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2009 Well, I really miss my Limey you know! It was so nice looking, I was happy having it in my student's room when I was sleeping.But since I got the Echo Control, I feel so much more confortable! I don't know why though, it's just personal preference. I am much more capable of things with the Echo (perhaps becaus it's lighter too...).One thing you need to know: the Onza Limey 3 wouldn't have cracked if there wasn't this hole to put the Magura hose in it! Koxx had made an XTP with these holes and it cracked just the same! So wait for 2 or 3 weeks until the new Onza Limey 3 are in shops without these holes (and they are white: LUSH!) and then go for it!It's much better quality than the Echo, believe me!
