Love the 7.0 (one of my favorite frames)

Tube on the chainstay could be wrapped a little tighter.

Jitters, your over the top dude! Tarty Maggie on the back is nice. Are you ever gonna try front disc or just a Vee Man? That Raven is great, nice job huh? So are you going to make the Raven your main bike? Sell the Echo, keep them both for friends that fly in to ride????

Huba huba props.

Thanks, gonna keep 'em both in hopes to entice some unfortunate soul to try out trials, and for a back up if one breaks. Gonna keep riding the Echo for now and stick with V's on front. May go for disc if I ever smooth out, but right now I'd probably just destroy rotors every ride. lol

Yeah the shitty chainstay protector is just a temporary thing. Gonna fashion up a more betterer one in the next day or so.

At last! It rides so nice..... I had to use a zip tie to hold the Brake cable away from the tire.

Yeah, a real beauty there! Not crazy about the 80s football helmet stripes on the seatstays though. Are those decals or are they cleared over? I'll own one of those frames someday.
