Mooore! Posted November 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2006 I was going to get the Hifi stem when i bought the frame but when i tried my old stem on it everything just felt right so i decided to stick with it and i've never had a problem with the position.The front V brake would be lethal if it worked any better, i know it looks a bit ridiculous way out there but its the dogs danglies performance wise. Cheers for the comments guys, keep em coming Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers for the comments guys, keep em comingSo are you using a brisa stem with 31.8 bars? How does that work? I guess I never really thought of that as a option. Was it hard getting the bar in there? Let me know........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mooore! Posted November 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2006 Its not a brisa stem, its an Echo one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.Wood Posted November 28, 2006 Report Share Posted November 28, 2006 Dece... Whack a grind on that rear rim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mooore! Posted November 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2006 Funny you should mention putting a grind on. I was talking about that about 2 minutes before i fell off and did my back in. The reason for falling off... The brake slipped when i landed & i fell back & cracked my back across 3 steps. Have done the rim now so will post a new pic when i put the wheel back on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim-p Posted December 4, 2006 Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 thats really nice i was wondering you could tell me how much that was because i now someone who might be buying one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mooore! Posted December 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 I'm not sure how much it cost all together because i didnt buy it all at once, some bits have come from bikes i've had in the past & also i was able to get a few bits quite cheap because i worked in a bike shop for 7 years. Sorry i cant be more helpful mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
