Re: buy a tomos
what's that dmp pipe like? i'm unfamiliar with them.
Re: buy a tomos
same as tecno estoril
Re: buy a tomos
where can i get an esterol pipe for a puch?
Re: buy a tomos
REALLY? now that's interesting . . .
Re: buy a tomos
no for real thou i need to know what the best set up for torque is? and where i can get an estoril pipe at? or that copy pipe you were saying?
Re: buy a tomos
estoril is the best pipe for torque, everybody and their mother agrees. as for where to get one right now, that's kind of the $64,000 question. you'll notice there are three or four WTB posts for them in buy/sell.
i want to hear about this dmp pipe, because if it's really a clone of the estoril . . . i want one!
Re: buy a tomos
theres hills in ohio?
Re: buy a tomos
well best setup for torque ,if you dont mind playing the odds,i think would be a polini 65cc kit big carb and proma circuit pipe.
Re: buy a tomos

Re: buy a tomos
another torquey pipe to look into is the proma gp.

Re: buy a tomos
One bike I'm running that's kinda torquey is a pinto w/ stock cylinder (#1 open transfer I think) w/ a square 16mm intake (bored 14), a 14mm bing (72 jet?), a 50cc HC head, high flow bing filter, two-shoe clutch lightened (92g) and with Paz springs, Proma GP pipe, 14/45 gearing, on snowflakes with IRC NC53 2.5R/2.25F. With this set-up I'm toping out just over 30 on the flats, have great acceleration and can climb just about anything (steep grades for miles on end) at about 23 mph. I'm at 5600' above sea level and weigh in at about 180.
Re: buy a tomos
metrakit anyone?
the easiest to install and torquiest kit on the market is probably the metrakit 65, might take a while to find one, but they are worth it. combine with an estoril or dmp for super torque action, combine with sha 16/tecno boss/clutch tuning for super all around dustin'
run low gears 14:40 or 15:45
Re: buy a tomos
15/45 climbs great but rpms are at the top.with 16/40 i can cruz half throttle 25/30 mph and the rpms are just purring
Re: buy a tomos
whats a good site to find 16/40 sprockets?? or anyone wanna sell me those 2?
Re: buy a tomos
40t may be hard to find but 16-18 is available. 18-45 works good for me too
Re:don't buy a tomos
What gears do you have? I have a 12t front and an unknown rear one that I'm not using. I can count up the rear one if ya wanna trade? A 12/45 setup would have amazing torque, but not a very high speed. For torque, go down in the front and up in the rear. For speed, go down in the rear and up in the front. I'm pretty sure you don't want a 40t in the rear if you want torque. You definately don't want a 18t in the front. That will steal all of your torque.
Re:don't buy a tomos
16/40 works on the big hill of ohio so does 18/45 with 2-1/4 tires
Re:don't buy a tomos
I have a 38 rear I'm not using. I was running 14 x 38 and jsut switched to 16x45. Might go with 17 x 45 though.
