T-pro's should really be called T-snaps , i would avoid them although a very nice bike to learn on , but you can pick up a brand new zona zip frame which are apparantley pretty strong and look fairly close to a zoo pyhton for around 160 quid.
If you do Decide to get stickers , then just get a picture or some artwork of the zona logos , take it to a sign/sticker company tell them the dimensions and they should be able to do it. I had my onza ones done when i sprayed my bike and you wouldnt be able to tell the difference between them and the official onza ones. piece of piss to put on aswell. Thats mine, i sprayed lacquer over them after aswell to give it a shine and to stop the stickers from peeling back. Ian.
Try spraying brake or clutch cleaner on the bars and/or inside of the grips, its designed to evaporate leaving no oil or residue. I race motorbikes aswell and do this on my racebike grips to - havent slipped once. Works a treat.
Never tried it , or thought about trying it to be honest , i dont see a problem with just using magura blood. Although the flora vegetable oil is still circulating in my front brake :L i cant be arsed changing it.
I don't use a freehub, but judging by some of the remarks i've heard about the new viz extreme freehub it could be worth a look. Quality might not be as good as the hope pro II but the 120 engagement points might grab your attention! have a look ...on here
Its exactly the same , if you look at the first step you'll see you have to put a spoke in once every four holes , and the difference between 32 holes and 36 is 4 , however if you go on this , which is what i used to learn from , you should find everything a bit easier to understand.
id say for a smooth rim , rockman green pads , work really well in the dry and quite well in the wet too. also for a grind try the plazmatic Crm's good bite and strong hold ...... excellent noise to !
yep would have to agree there , i swapped my onza forks (1397g) for a set of echo sl forks for £80 (588g) noticable difference whatever your doing , and if your prepared to throw a bit o' money at it , i would recomend some monty 221 cranks (£80 and very light ) and some magnesium pedals which quite a few brands are selling for around 45 pounds.
