RicH_87 Posted April 25, 2005 Report Share Posted April 25, 2005 deffo Team forks, and deffo zoo bars (or onza carbon risers if you can afford them!) any stem will do really, but i would say echo. (Y) nice bike too, i would love to try your brakes. :- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spunkey_monkey_boy Posted April 25, 2005 Report Share Posted April 25, 2005 the zoo bar and stem are sooooo sweet, i got them and i feel so much more confident on my bike now, they were an instant improvement... if your not sure about the zoo stem then get the zoo bars and a different stem but i'd go for zoo bar and stem (Y) btw - are you the lad with one hand who was featured in MBUK years ago doing silly dirt jumping?

A true inspiration!! :) You my friend are a legend!!! :) As for the parts, i think you should get onza light guy forks to match the frame and also onza bar and stem (carbon bars). Cheers, Joe.

hulltrialser Posted April 26, 2005 Report Share Posted April 26, 2005 that bike is realy nice and how do you bleed the brake as the hoseing is in the bleed bolt hole. Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MADBob Posted April 26, 2005 Report Share Posted April 26, 2005 I recently got a mag too.... To be the original bar+stem set up felt way too high and short. I've now got zoo bar+stem which is about 1" lower and 1" longer (depending on bar position) and the ride improved 110% All I need now are forks, booster, pads, grind and my front avid to bed in.....

1handedluke Posted April 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2005 (edited) Hey Bob can you post up a picture with the Zoo stem and handlebars. Thanks Luke that bike is realy nice and how do you bleed the brake as the hoseing is in the bleed bolt hole. I'm not to sure at the moment, But i think you just bleed it at 1 brake and it comes out at the other. I Think thats what Tarty said. :) Edited April 26, 2005 by 1handedluke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MADBob Posted April 26, 2005 Report Share Posted April 26, 2005 Appologies for the poor quality pics... Margrett :S in front and Bo :- behind :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted April 26, 2005 Report Share Posted April 26, 2005 Hey Bob can you post up a picture with the Zoo stem and handlebars. Thanks Luke I'm not to sure at the moment, But i think you just bleed it at 1 brake and it comes out at the other. I Think thats what Tarty said. :) ← Yeah, sounds right. Basically, inlet tube on the rear brake, escape tube on the front one, and it acts as one complete system. The only problem I could imagine would be that it'd be a bitch not to get air trapped, but if you took the front brake off the forks and held it above the lever, it should be fine :) Good work anyway, nice bike, and kudos to you for riding trials :) Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
