Token Posted May 11, 2007 Report Share Posted May 11, 2007 i don't ride with them get zoo! haha much better Yeh the zoo ones make you gap 2 foot further....... and also cost twice as much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomtrials Posted May 11, 2007 Report Share Posted May 11, 2007 Yeh the zoo ones make you gap 2 foot further....... and also cost twice as much.I've also heard they make you gap like tunnie and sidehop like damon... i just like a good set of cranks, if you can afford them then why not?

Token Posted May 11, 2007 Report Share Posted May 11, 2007 Because they aren't any better, and they cost twice as much. I don't know if you have the same view as me, but if I pay twice as much for something I'd like to see something beneficial and not just a choice of 'pretty colours'.

I don't know if you have the same view as me, but if I pay twice as much for something I'd like to see something beneficial and not just a choice of 'pretty colours'.there about 100 grams lighter, made of a better material aswell.its the fact that the 6061 echo cranks are forged that makes them strong.

gianttrials Posted May 12, 2007 Report Share Posted May 12, 2007 can you run 22t chainrings on them not really they're for 16 or 18 tooth screw on chainrings. what about middleburn pro trials? they use a 22tooth 5 bolt ring (super pro trials a 16tooth fixed sprocket/bash) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali C Posted May 12, 2007 Report Share Posted May 12, 2007 yeah you can run a 22 tooth cog, surly make screw on ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gianttrials Posted May 12, 2007 Report Share Posted May 12, 2007 yeah you can run a 22 tooth cog, surly make screw on ones.my mistake didnt realise that surly made 1 mind you if they dont make a bash you'll still need to figure that out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted May 12, 2007 Report Share Posted May 12, 2007 my mistake didnt realise that surly made 1 mind you if they dont make a bash you'll still need to figure that outHeatsink could probably make one, or you could just run 18T? If thats an option.Buying an 18t and a 15t for the rear would probably be cheaper than getting a new bash made as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
