wolfie Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 He brought it as a whole bike from Tarty Bikes for £1200. The reason I know this is that I ride with him regularly. It’s the nicest mod I’ve ever ridden. Just email or ring Tarty Bikes and see what they can do for you; this is what mitch did. He should be on here later as he is normally on daily. Hope I've helped a bitWolfie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

melvin146 Posted December 31, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 thanks i know that i might have to change a few other bits too my t-pro if i swap the frame for a gu typhoonbut i dont know haw much it will cost???what are snail cams and what cranks will i need to get cos the echo ones are quite expensive for me anyways Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfie Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 Sail cams are just chain tensioners that allow easy set-up by simply turning the tensioner along a bolt. The cam gradually pushes your rear wheel backwards until the desired chain tension has been gained. Any snail cams will do the job for chain tension, and your cranks should be fine as long as your bottom brackets axel is long enough. Mitch is using an echo bottom bracket, which has an axel length of 128 mm. You may also have to change your headset if your t-pro has an internal headset as well.
