Sam T Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 They're usually short, high bb and mod like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cunny12345 Posted January 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 well done. . but not all. . mine is long Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dann2707 Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 (edited) I've got an Onza comp which has pretty much those characteristics. It's fun but I think it is a bit too short, but think thats cos of my bars I have atm. It's really flicky and seem to be able to hop to rear wheel higher than when I had a lower BB. But that might just be because i've progressed a bit. Also feels so good on the rear wheel, I wouldnt go low bb ever again i dont think. I'd go for a little bit longer though personally, more like 1010, 1020 wb not 1000. Edited January 12, 2012 by dann2707 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dann2707 Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 Cheers mate. I swapped stems on mine recently, from a 150x35 to a 170x35 and it's totally transformed the bike, feels soooo much nicer as im not crouched as much over. I think it would feel amazing with trial tech high rise bars rather than these Tensile bars I have atm. As for price I got mine for £100 almost brand new, was used like 2 times or something. Have you considered the Ice 2? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cunny12345 Posted January 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 fair enough! ohh thats a fair price! yeah may have to look for one now, whats it like with a maggie, flexy with a booster? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dann2707 Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 It's crazily flexy without a booster, unusable to be honest. Got an Echo SL booster (2 bolt) on it and now it's perfect, so much hold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cunny12345 Posted January 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 ah fair enough then, similar to my python then, terrible without, really good with a booster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or get your hands on a 320, same geo but a lot stiffer so the brake works fine with no booster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
