I've got a spare one I'd be willing to swap for one of those bikes with a seat. Edited July 9, 2016 by niconj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross McArthur Posted July 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2016 Thanks everyone. I'm really enjoying the bike at the moment. It's developed a few creaks and groans, so some care and attention is required! Ill hopefully get out again this week to film some more.

LEON Posted July 10, 2016 Report Share Posted July 10, 2016 Thought so, I like mine but it really does need good sunshine to look great. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lifes-a-trial Posted July 10, 2016 Report Share Posted July 10, 2016 Excellent riding Ross, you seem to get on with that set up well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross McArthur Posted July 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2016 It's pretty much perfect for what I need and for what I want it to feel like. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyT Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 Bike is beautiful , it's riding is exploding my brain. Looks like a huge 18 pound mod bike, that bar/stem woahhhhhhhh . Is it just an echo 24" comp frame ? Rims give it a semblance of class. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niconj Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 It's the now very rare echo disc frame. Geo is just like a normal 24'' frame even though this one is pretty long at 1070/+70 I'm so very jealous of your riding Ross... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big front tyre, chunky stem, thick grips. It installs a feeling of confidence. I get freaked out at skinny front comp tyres like TryAlls and bar tape.

Its all about practice man. Each one of those clips took maybe 10 to 20 goes to get it the way I wanted.. And even then it wasn't perfect. I tried to kind of show that with a couple of the clips, like on the bollard to wall line and the fakie nose roll. Sometimes I have to just go with what I've got as there's only so much battery power in the go pro. maybe I should get one of these dongle thingy'majigs that plugs in to charge on the go. 3 minutes ago, isitafox said: You look like @dann2707when you wear skinny jeans Just following Alis top tips on how to be more street.

AdamAllen Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 That was sweet!, Silky smooth aswell, Does the echo feel more like a mod to you? The 1 I had a play on in Brum just reminded my of pythons from years gone by! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross McArthur Posted July 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 I don't think so. Anyone who rides it feels its super long, which I thought as well. I struggled with the feeling of the wheels being so far apart to begin with but slowly getting used to it. I thought I'd look like Mike Steidley with the long bike + high/long bar and stem but don't think I pull it off too badly? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one wants to look like Steidley on a bike. i think you are over four foot tall so I don't think it's possible for you to mirror his image. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
