come on people give me some frames to look at ?
-
Well i did have a zona zip, and i loved it at first, improved my sidehopping so much, but i then got bored of it and decided to spray it matt black, still it did not make me want to ride the bike anymore, i have now gone for a ko-bike km1 (see Trials-Uk for more details), i will post a review on here after i have rode it for a while.
Me personally though, i would not really advise the zona, it just gets boring, for some strange reason everybody sells them after a while.
Dan.
ive got a monty 220 and i got bored with that so sanded it down to bare metal and polished it but im still bored of the way it rides and thats why i was looking for a different type of frame bit longer and lower with a high bb hieght

The mounts are called evo (evolution) mounts one will also be quick release. handy for if you take your front wheel off to get your bike in the car lol

Right i have just bought a 14t acs to get my gear ratio slightly better, but due to me running a 'fat' motorbike style chain and the acs having a raised part on the freewheel the chain isnt sitting properly when pedalling and generally feel shyte, good i machine donw that part of the freewheel or is it a better idea getting a cassette hub as my ratio at the moment is 32t>14t.
32t-14t you should be runing a 38t with a 14 but you could get an odessey freewheel which is a 13 but the gearing will still be out -
heres the gearing ratios
44 - 16
38 - 14
36 - 13
33 - 12
30 - 11
28 - 10
25 - 9
hope this helps

This is the rubbish way todo it.
The best way is to take your bolt and cut a | into the head of it and put it in the other way round. Ill get pictures at some point.
its not exactly easy to cut down the middle of a small bolt though??

We know
OBM did this ages ago I believe
ok sorry im not to know ive not been on here long but still not everyone will of read it before

the old style maggie levers always brake on the tpa.
but this can be fixed
all you need is a bolt from a skateboard or one with the same thread it has to be between 1" and 1.5"
now to start remove the lever blade look inside the blade where the broken bolt from the tpa is and remove it, then take the red part of the tpa off. there should be a square brass coloured bit, screw the new (skateboard) bolt into this holding the square bit with a pair of pliers then reassemble the lever.
all fixed now to adjust the new tpa just hold the brass square and screw in the bolt or vice versa this should work perfect at least it did for me good luck and get riding.
-
my m8 had this problem and we stripped an old skateboard he had and the bolt was the same thread but longer and this has been working fine since
-
who has a zona zip and what do you like about them and why? thanx
-
It's heavy because of the shocker (at least 1.3kg over traditional rigid forks), seat and seat post (my guess is 0.8kg) and the disc setup (an extra 0.5kg over maguras). In total that gives you over 2.5kgs of extra weight.
i think maguras weigh more than discs do, but that all depends on the discs anyways it will weigh more mainly because of the forks suspension forks also mean less control i dont know why monty have done this but i would get new forks

4) Alex dx32
This rim is the strongest rim out of them all but the look of it is the biggest let down as you can only get it in black without being drilled . But you can get in different sizes e.g 32 36 which is a good advantage.

i was on about a stock bike soz buddy
still go for a short mod frame
no worries mate i should of said that i was riding a mod lol
-
everything will be apart from the headset i think also if you have a 20" rear wheel then you will need a 19" one.
-
that just wierd how can it know what your thinking, there is one thing i noticed though which is that the symbols for the letters are used for more than one letter
-
dont grind a rotor if your brake is crap get a bigger rotor maybe some new pads
-
you could remove the broken mount and reweld a bigger one over the hole and that should also be stronger
-
any more recommended frames?
-
ive got a pic but dont know how to upload it ??

at the moment om riding a monty 220 but will be getting a new frame any suggestions on a cheapish but half decent frame i have been looking at a zona zip?
-
black looks tons better in black bit bright before also how does the zona zip ride, i have a monty 220 and im thinking of buying a zona
-
im 15, 5'11" and ride a mod? so 1065 would be really long?
-
I haven't been riding for very long and i am thinking of buying a frame although i was unsure weather a long or short frame would be best. At the moment i ride mainly street but sometimes natural all depending on what there is around.
