AkuskaUK Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 Does anyone know the differences between the Echo 24" Mrk 1 and 2? I have already done a google search and forum search and it returned nothing. Any help is appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trials hoe Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 mk2 came in the dark ano finnish (like the 2013 ones i think) other than that the geo is the same, don't know about the rear spacing options on the mk2 though. that was what my googling found anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AkuskaUK Posted December 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 That's all i could find!, no other changes? Not any stronger? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamKidney Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 (edited) Pretty much the same frame essentially. 2010/11/12 Wheelbase: 1065mm Chainstay Length (Using 18:14 ratio): 360mm BB Rise: 70mm Head Angle: 72 degrees Centre of BB shell to top centre of head tube: 655mm Weight: 1.492kg (Without BB), 1.752kg (With steel BB). 2013 Wheelbase: 1055mm Chainstay Length (Using 18:14 ratio): 360mm BB Rise: 70mm Head Angle: 72 degrees Centre of BB shell to top centre of head tube: 650mm Weight: 1.436kg (Without BB), 1.778kg (With steel BB). The 2013 is ever so slightly heavier apparently and 10mm shorter, has 135mm spacing and the black finish. Strength should be no issue. Edit: How can the 2013 be lighter than the Mk1 when weighed without the BB, but when installed with the bb, which is the same in the two frames, be slightly heavier? ...

trials hoe Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 (edited) the mk2 geo is the same as the 2013 version? i thought deng just put a different finish on it rather than change the geo. edit - mk 2 is the same just a diff colour and18g lighter http://www.echobike.com/ http://www.tartybike.../c70p11475.html Edited December 3, 2012 by trials hoe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AkuskaUK Posted December 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 Thanks for the answers so far, so no difference in strength? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
