October 20, 201312 yr Author Is that an Echo? What is the BB bracket height on the pedal bike? Its BIONIC B5r-7 1090 wheelbase, +70bb, 380mm chainstays and 71 degree head angle... tips the scale al 1508 grams. Now that is sexy.........and the bicycle looks good too Thanks Mok!!! You gotta own one of this babies... Lots of fun and teches how to handle a motorcycle too!!! you forgot to paint the handlebars black Its a Monty WBC limited edition... With a weird but magic geometry (10 degrees up, no backsweep) Looks nice and would be a pitty to paint over it... Ill maybe swap it for carbon bars, if id get one with the same geo... BTW... Ive been riding the bike for 5th time today... I felt it really more flickable with less PSI, according to my gauge that might not be dead-accurate im at 7 and 5 (front and rear) Grabbed my camera and shoot a couple stuff... I tried doubleblips for the first time, i got them almost dialed!!! Its all about hitting very low with the front wheel i guess and the bike pops up like magically... I managed to stall over the log a couple times i think its all about practice... Also tried slowing down my splatters (i dont know if thats a splatter or something called different... couldnt get my hands in any training videos yet ) I just preload, twist throttle, dump cluth as i decompress and try to keep it controlled either aplying throttle or stepping on the rear brake... PS: Ill get some friends to help me and ill try to steal that log tomorrow :D I got a new truck thats the perfect obstacle robbery machine and the EVO fits nice and snug with truckbed door closed.
