Josh PWND Posted February 11, 2008 Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 2nded aslong as it is still cheap and all good frames id maybe buy one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigjames Posted February 11, 2008 Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 if its good quality bits and obviously represents good alue for money then its a good idea, but it cant be only a little bit cheaper than buying bits off the shelf that you'd normally chose.

As with complete bikes, the "parcel" is cheaper than if purchased as spares, a Kit must represent better value than buying individual items. I agree it should include a bottom bracket.I'll work on it.Fred. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Duck Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 I think a frame kit is only a good idea if its going to be relatively cheap. Most people i expect, would want to buy the frame only, if they already had a headset, forks etc. The frame kit option would need to be aimed at beginners?

Bigman Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 That frame does look good, but it looks alot longer than 1075mm......Frame kits can be a good idea, but they need to be aimed at the right people...Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andeee Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 Zhi's dont look that bad the geo on the Z2 white stock sounds nice. The reason why the zhi's and bionics are similiar to the deng models is: Because previous zoo designers helped designed the zhi's etc.. so there basically designed by people who designed deng stuff...

The reason why the zhi's and bionics are similiar to the deng models is: Because previous zoo designers helped designed the zhi's etc.. so there basically designed by people who designed deng stuff...The reason is because, the guy behind zhi rode for zoo, so the first frame they brought out was practically a zoo frame out of a catalogue with zhi stickers. And then he started to do his own things. More than likely the frames and parts are all made in same factory as deng. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cai Posted February 14, 2008 Report Share Posted February 14, 2008 Because previous zoo designers helped designed the zhi's etc.. so there basically designed by people who designed deng stuff...Wrong, Yao Zhi was a former Zoo rider. And went on to do his own products. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grantham Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 A whole new range of products are about to be released by ZHI, deliveries expected in march.that frame looks so nice! really tempted as it has horizontal dropouts to I got a zhi Bottom bracket through the other day to try, really impressed with it. It has a slightly thicker axle than my last one making it feel much stiffer, feels like I can transfer more power through the pedals. there a good price to, I really like all this new zhi stuff thats coming out, good to see companys trying different things. My BB is in a pimp gold colour to that matches my frame nicely. I will upload some photos I took of it later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
