BetaNZ Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 Hi guys, after a bit of research I have come to three options for my first trials bike ... a 2010 echo lite spec 1, a 2010 zoo lynx spec 1, or a second hand monty kamel 221 for $1450 NZD (or close to 720 pounds) that probably wont still be there when my xc bike sells as it seems someone else is interested, so which bike would you go for and why? Also bashplate or bashring? My purchase will be made through tartybikes so for reference the bikes are there. The link for the monty is: http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=331389556 Cheers Brad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want a light bike, go for the echo, a strong one, go for the zoo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Vandart Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 Excellent advice Kieran. I second that opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BetaNZ Posted November 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 Hey guys, thanks for the replies. It says on tartybikes that both bikes are 9.7kgs including pedals, but if the Zoo is stronger I think I will go for that. Cheers Brad.

t-comp-kierz Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 Go for the zoo! Its nicer and stronger than the echo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BetaNZ Posted November 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 ok sounds good, and the echo has white grips which turn into brown very fast lol Cheers Brad, now I just got to sell the xc after holidays and get zoo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
