JT! Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 Has the new design paied off? Any problems fitting? Any clicking / crunching / braking?I'm doing a bit of upgrading and i thought i might aswell buy a BB that's going to last while the wheels are being played with, as the truvative gigapipes getting a bit crunchy. Love the idea and the simplicity of the echo BB, and now i'm loosing the front freewheel i can have one. So what's the score? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ogre Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 Might be a bit blond for asking this, but can you repalce just the axle if you killed one? or would you have to shell out for a whole new unit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
