poopipe Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 I hate posts like this so apologies in advance.....Currently my t-poo has standard bars n stem & some t-mag forks. There's nothing wrong with any of them but I'm feeling the urge to spend money and it's either bike bits or drugs. sooo - forks ?why are the zoo ones 20quid cheaper than the echo and Gu ones? is it worth spending the extra 30-40 quid for the fancy CNC bits over getting echo easys ? stem - ill get a t-masterbars - I'm torn between echo toughs and zoo risers, im getting slightly stiff wrists on my current setup - would getting the risers reduce it ? ta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMunn Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 When regarding the forks I would think it better to get zoos, no need for the fancy cnc stuff, plus they don't snap like the echo lite/easy forks. I really like zoo risers, but I also like the feel of my flat bars, but they extra width does feel good, so I guess your gonna have to figure it out.

TomN Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 Get the ZOO! forks, I've heard many Echo mod forks snapping. And go for the ZOO! risers aswell, feels well nice and are strong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaRtZ Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 My GU forks are holding up nicely, and I do alot of front hopping cos im a poncy flash git As for bar + stem I would reccomend Tmaster (as you said) and the zoo risers, cos they feel acey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshywa Posted January 28, 2006 Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 dont be put off by the echo the reason they snap was the support only went 5cm ish up the steerer... on the new ones it goes all the way.but for the sake of it here's what happens to the old ones:snaped just by the top cup of the headset. scarier still is the same thing had happened to a mates 3 months beforehonest though the new one (i'm getting on warrenty) are meant to be far stronger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
