improvement?.......still a lot to to do though. www.onza.com

Sound this bike has the geo you want. http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?pr...;category_id=47

Yeah he made it. It was el masssssive.

Just looking through my Italy pics and thought you guys might like to see this one I got. Its Insane. (The Benito Tech Dab-Last Picture) (And Ryan's old skool leg through, ha ha) And a couple of others......

As Mark King said, Prices have been going up every year now. Its a sad thing really because our aim 10 years ago was to make trials affordable. Its becoming so tough now though. Percentage wise we and the shops make roughly 20% less margins then normal bicycles. The new 09' range has had to have every single componant looked at to see where we can bring the cost down. Think we have done a pretty fine job. When the T-bird had HS33 brakes we were sourcing every componant out of the factory in Nottingham. So a lot of the frames had been made years before and it was all based on costs dating back to 04'. hope that made some sense.

Hmmm.... Well with current hike of price of the far east you will see that the 09' Comp being more expensive (approx £560). Its coming in an off white and it is a slightly better frame with the 'CNC' reverse chain tugs and Disc mount. Your call dude........... No plans yet, The Zoot has been a steady seller since early 06' and we are unsure if a 'Trials specific' frame is needed. Maybe a hybrid 24" street bike is something we should look at. I reckon with 24" you can really go radical as its aimed at being much of a fun bike. I think once the all thepro series frames are finished and the 09' range is out we will hit the drawing board and thrash some ideas around. I can see a proto being about by christmas.

not yet. frames are all the same to a degree. Apart from the Ice of course.

It should be in around £429. There are 3 models above the Pro. These are Blade, Comp and Ice full pro build. All 09' models are landing an about 6 weeks. As Ben and few others have pointed out the spelling mistake in the banner I made for TF. I spelt 'Friendly' wrong. Human Error. Within mintutes of seeing it I changed it and sent the rectified ad to TF. I've done all I can.

I'm being honest, I would get shot down if I wasn't. The current 08' team all had 1 set in Oct 07' and they ain't had any more.

If you recall previous comments left I am redesigning the whole thing. I cant just sh*t one out of thin air though.

I know no one gives a toss what I say, But this is a TRUE fact. Andrai Burton, Joe Seddon, Scott Wilson, Gaz Merideth, Karl Donnerly........you get where I'm going with this. None of them have broken these cranks. Danny Butler And Ben Slinger ran them for years with out breaking them. In fact Danny has transfered them on to His Atomz bike and ran them at this years UCI worlds. (I don't sponsor him so he doesn't have to) Stunt Man T: I told you that these cranks were breaking in the same place as yours. I did not say we had problems with the cranks. and for £99, They are 'CNC' cranks. Look across the board. Thats how much 'CNC' cranks cost.

Top lad! He is an absolute natural.

Right on, 2 hour discussion with the Kenda design team in Taipai this year should have should have some good out come! Kenda/Tensile are teaming up. I'll have some feedback from Mr Mohamet and Mr Burton pretty soon too.

This is a mock up of the 2009 Onza Pro. Hopefully will be retailing around £419, Spec: All new Pro frame, U6 tubing. Disc mount and Inverse Chain tugs. Plus 19" Mag mounts. 1.6KG Tensile Freewheel. Cold forged Alloy T-Pro Crankset Onza Duel Pull mechanical disc brakes. The photo does have some errors due to some of the spec not being in stock, I.E Matching Rotas and headset. Etc Oh, and colour should be more like the Limey 1 when it comes out.....Not White. ETA: August

:$ Owned, I'm your bitch Tom. You gonna change my spelling mistake soon? I still think Onza are the most popular trials bikes

Ah I know mate, Just thought he might be compeating on another Atomz. It wasn't a dig.

Is Danny gonna ride that next week? 7 days to train on? good luck dude. Ill see you next week.

Well here goes to stopping up late and a pulsating work load......Mark shall I change my name to...........Ronan keating?........I like his tone. off topic but has anyone seen the free advertising google are doing at the top of the page? Statistically (spell check me) Onza are the most popular serched Trials bike according to that I think. ha ha. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Just a quick one to say what a lovely weekend it was, Wasn't there just for the trial but so glad that I got to see some great lads having great fun. Got to meet some of the riders which really made feel like I should be visiting more of these comps, Gonna try and make it to some more as I really really enjoyed it. Next stop Italy, Who dares me to run up to Vincent and ram an Onza t-shirt on him then take a quick pic. He He. but after that Ill start looking at what weekends I can make it to. Back on thy topic of Fort William, well done to the organiser's. After having a quick chat with Fred you really have to respect the commitment some of these guys put in. Like to make one big shout out to young Jack Carthy who I think is an absolute prodigy. I still cant believe he's only 11, Hope he stays with Onza for years to come as I'm sure he will be a world champion. adios!

Cheers, thats what I am doing. Rebuilding the whole site. Don't say I never listen........Thanks for your help guys.

Yeah i get what you mean. I've not finished it yet though, Do you think I should take it off line?
