Anyone have experience on the Echo Control?

[gononza]

I'm curious to know what people make of them, now that they have been out for a while. Does anyone have experience with the new control? What are the ups and downs of the frame? Additionally, does anyone know if the pure fork suffers the same "and sadly ironic" incompatibility issues with the control that people have been talking about with the pure frame?



Any thoughts would be really helpful. Thanks

what incompability issues would that be???????

[gononza]

people were talking about the pure fork being too long for the pure frame. It was putting the front end up too high making wheel switches/"displacements?" very difficult. Said problem was remedied with a shorter fork like the echo urban or px knifen forks.

I run the pure with a 400mm fork, anything longer would be too long. Just sort of forget the names that echo gives their forks, and refer to them by Axle-Crown length only.

Well.. im on the Pure and I run a 400 fork at the moment. Im however gonna get the longer 420 fork, guess its a matter of preference.
