Ash-Kennard Posted April 1, 2006 Report Share Posted April 1, 2006 Heres the deal. I ride an echo control long with urban forks, it should be 1080, but when i built it up it turned out to be 1090. But I think thats due to the urban forks.recently my forks have been creaking and I have been told that urbans always creak. I measured my bike today and I found that I had grown. Instead of being 1090 it was now 1095. 1/2 a cm is quite significant for a bike to grow.I have checked the forks over, by taking them out and looking at them. But there are no signs of stress.I just can't understand why it has grown so my question to you all is, just really how long are your 1080 controls. also with your answer can you state which forks you are using. eg. 1095, echo urbans.ash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simpson Posted April 2, 2006 Report Share Posted April 2, 2006 I THINK my echo control was 1075 but that was with straight blade saracan forks - not sure about your problem sounds very..... odd for your forks to just.... bend more curved maybe? but still half cm if - coming london today the weather looks good lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted April 2, 2006 Report Share Posted April 2, 2006 (edited) You're talking about stock bikes here, but all Echo Group mods I had apart from the Python were bang on 10mm longer than they should be.

nb88 Posted April 2, 2006 Report Share Posted April 2, 2006 1085 control - 1085 with fatty forks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flipkickbs Posted April 2, 2006 Report Share Posted April 2, 2006 (edited) My 04 control 1085 measures up at 1093 with urbans on. Half a cm could easily be caused by a bend in the tape measure, or not holding it in the right place. I wouldn't worry about it.
