Sponge Posted December 25, 2012 Report Share Posted December 25, 2012 Just spotted these and haven't seen them anywhere else yet, thought I'd share, enjoy!: GU 20" 2013 (1000wb, 72ha, +85bb, 350cs, 589reach, 105mm headtube) weight- light? CNC backed pads! 20t TR freewheel (72ep) Street stem (50mm) Street forks Those eagle eyed of you should spot an updated Echo TR rear hub with disc mounts and splined cog/lockring!

Jake. Posted December 25, 2012 Report Share Posted December 25, 2012 Interesting to see that they've produced more streety stuff, the 20t ffw looks pretty cool. Those forks should be a popular alternative for street riders over the inspired straight blade forks, the previous alternative was urbans and they look a bit silly for a street setup.

customrider-Rhys Posted December 25, 2012 Report Share Posted December 25, 2012 Andrei Burton has one of them 2013 frames at the moment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
williams Posted December 25, 2012 Report Share Posted December 25, 2012 I really like that GU frame and I think that it's cool that they have started making frames again! Geo sounds really nice too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sponge Posted December 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2012 (edited) This is the first time I've seen the 20" version of the new GU, I like that they've finally decided to put a gusset under the downtube bash mount. The anodized electric blue is probably one of my favourite finishes for frames in general! Provided those street forks are along the lines of 400mm/35mm geo I think they'd be ok, but from seeing the Czar 2013 builds they look extremely tall. Maybe someone else might know the actual geo of these? Could be an interesting alternative for some riders.

customrider-Rhys Posted December 25, 2012 Report Share Posted December 25, 2012 (edited) might buy one of these frames, the old 09's ride nice still although the plus silly bb is off putting Edited December 25, 2012 by customrider-Rhys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blake Posted December 26, 2012 Report Share Posted December 26, 2012 That mod geo is discusting. Get that bb down, it's a gu for God's sake. Freewheel looks proper weird, who is going to use it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex-trials-boy Posted December 26, 2012 Report Share Posted December 26, 2012 All looking good to me forks look luch, see how the new GU's last and the echo freewheel looks pretty cool. I sware White Industries made freewheels for trials from 16t,17t,18t,19t,20t,21t,22t always thought was pretty cool sware they made a 9t and a 12t they were absoluty tiny haha. Glad to see more brands like echo are adopting to the demand of more street riders bring on the 2013 deng range Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
