Harryy Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 I have recently started trials biking again after a long break, I'm now thinking that i need a change of bike and was just wondering what should I change my frame to that wont feel too much different to my T-Bird. I have been looking at the Echo Control frames and im kind of interested in them are they any good??? Also if I do get a new frame will i need to buy a lot of new parts or can i just put most of the bits off of my onza onto the frame? Thanks.

rab shropshire Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 in a short answer you will need to change nearly all your parts, The T-bird is a mod bike (20" wheels) and the echo control is a stock (26" wheels) What you need will be a mod frame have a look on tarty for mod frames try this link tarty bikes mod frames Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harryy Posted July 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2010 my mate has the same model t-bird he was thinking of getting a ice frame i think | I was looking at that a while ago but i wasnt sure because (Im not very good with trials bike terms ) the frame just looked to be quite low and didnt rise up that much, which i think may be comfier to ride.

It is quite cool to look at but i would'nt know what it will be like to ride and i would have a go on his bike when he gets the new frame but he dosn't get it untill christmas. also at one point he was thinking of getting a because frame from tarty is was around £200 pound i think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, I am also looking to upgrade my Monty 219 Alp frame, and i was looking at either the Zoo Lynx or Echo Lite 09. they are, in my opinion the best value frames for their weight.
