ogre Posted November 9, 2006 Report Share Posted November 9, 2006 I'd recomend the echo 'cause it's got a bash I ride a python and i miss having a bash plate depending on what year model you have you might need new forks (if i remember correctly the latest prodigy has a huuuge steerer tube arrangement thing) headset, stem and you might need a new rear hub 'cause the axles 14mm and the python/echo take a 15mm or something wierd/annoying meaning you can only use the deng hubs ! you might be ok with the hub actually your better asking tarty or something though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urban legend. Posted November 9, 2006 Report Share Posted November 9, 2006 Hmmm echo team is the frame i believe a man named chris from a shop called activ dropped by acccident from about 2 foot and it cracked the stays Not good but its your choice.Dont be forgetting that the python is mega long Craig.

Passy Posted November 9, 2006 Report Share Posted November 9, 2006 If you are cramped up dead bad on your mission try a python but if you want summit a bit more ficky abouty and short try a echo both frames are strong and a doub either will snap or crack on you.(I meant the echo is a bit short not short)(shortER soz) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

esfrost Posted November 10, 2006 Report Share Posted November 10, 2006 I have an echo team and i love. Stiffest frame i have ever tried. Strong as hell. Great choice for urban riding. Just buy an echo team, u'll be happy with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
python_man Posted November 10, 2006 Report Share Posted November 10, 2006 errrrrmmmmmm well the name says what I would go for get a 05 or 07 they are the best models if you’re not too keen on really long bikes get the shorter model 05 1005 pythons are lovely Sex on legs or wheels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ted Posted November 10, 2006 Report Share Posted November 10, 2006 Hi guys, Im riding an onza t-pro at the moment and im looking for a new frame. I wanted to get a ZOO! python but then realised that it didnt come with a bashguard . Could anybody suggest a frame which comes with a bashguard and would suit an average height person who is used to the feel of a t-pro? Maybe the echo team 07?Thanks in advance.
