ginger allen echo Posted March 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 Too right i'm happy with it! Had a hop around on it today just messing around and it's pretty flicky. Gonna give it a good testing tomorrow and get the back brake bedded in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Gething Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 Very, very nice bike Any ideas on the weight? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ginger allen echo Posted April 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 ummm it's not silly light 'cos if i had a spec that was the bike would already have died. Think it's around 8.9 - 9.5? but i'm not sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 Awesome, Awesome bike!! How are you finding 175's on a mod? I run 170's on them and they seem plenty long! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ginger allen echo Posted April 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 I ran 175 adamants on my Ice 2 and they feel 1000000X better than 160's i had on before. Way more leverage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted April 2, 2012 Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 Yeah I don't like 160's at all but I love my 170's. 175's seem overkill though? surely you can't actually get anywhere? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ginger allen echo Posted April 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 Haha yeah you can't go far. But I can drive so I only ride maybe a mile at most to get to somewhere I want to ride. So it's not too bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CalopS Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 Pritty odd combo going for a maxxis on the front. Should have got a matching try-all! Looks nice though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ginger allen echo Posted May 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 I wasn't really wanting to fork out £40 for a try all.. and when the rear try all is on it's last legs (After slicking it) i'm going for a rear maxxis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
