wilf Posted October 14, 2012 Report Share Posted October 14, 2012 Me and old man Muel were up at Hawksnest today on the motorbikes and there were a few kids on trials bike there. One lad was on a dual disc Monty 207, it had Hope Tech Trial brakes... In red! It also had Hope hubs on it, pretty sure the front was a Pro 2 but the rear was something special, it was fixed because it had a Monty FFW. Has anyone got any ideas what it could be?

Jake. Posted October 14, 2012 Report Share Posted October 14, 2012 Should have stopped and asked... Dammit. I'd bloody love it if there was a hope pro 2 116mm fixed rear hub! If you could see that much detail, surely you wouldn't have been that far from them anyway? You even spotted that he had a Monty ffw?

Azarathal Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 Why bother with a fixed pro2? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamKidney Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 Theyre definately about. A mate of mine has a 116mm screw on pro2esque rear disc hub with 8mm Cap head bolts. Its quite nice actually, and looks good with a matching front Pro2. Pretty hefty mind. I'd rather stick to Bonz/Rockman/Echo hubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake. Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 Why bother with a fixed pro2? It's just one of those brand things, I've love to have middleburn cranks with a FFW etc. And Sam, that sounds pretty cool, shame it's heavy.

Yeah I was pretty close to them but i only spotted the rear hub at the last minute and I knew it was a Monty FFW because of the red ring. It was just like this one but the rear hub was in red with the normal hope etching. http://www.tribalzin...d-his-Monty-207 I think that kid was there aswell on a gas gas :L Edited October 15, 2012 by wilf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revolver Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 Are these the kids of those parents that we hear sometimes on here who buy their kids expensive bikes and aren't very nice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, I spoke to his dad and he was a really nice guy, the kid was pretty damn good aswell for his age. I remember his dad saying that they got the bike through a guy called Malcom so I'm guessing its this Malcom Rathmell who sponsors Charlie Rolls.
