Alex Dark Posted November 13, 2007 Report Share Posted November 13, 2007 Basically Im just wondering which of the above is the better bike for street trials riding?Both very similar condition, very similar price (around £50)..... I want something i can still 360, 180 drop off , front wheel hop do various street moves, bunnyhop etc.... while getting the advantages of a long trials specific frame ( better on the back wheel, gap farther etc )i dearly love my Woodstock but its quite sketchy on the back wheel, and i cant gap very far on it.....( yes i have tried longer frames and yes i have seen an improvement in my riding in certain areas, before someone goes on a tirade about it not being the bike but the rider ! Help! im really stuck............( yes, i have tried longer frames and yes, i have seen an improvement in my riding in certain areas; before someone goes on a tirade about it not being the bike but the rider ! )Please post asap!

Henrik Y Posted November 13, 2007 Report Share Posted November 13, 2007 (edited) I haven't owned any of those frames but my friend had a Koxx Levelboss and he recently bought a Zoo Pitbull. I've tried them both and I have a short Crescent ilions that is about 1050mm and I like to do some street tricks. The Koxx was impossible FOR ME to do an 180 and it didn't feel good for anything else then jump on the rearwheel and pedalkick. I thought that the Zoo would be the same as the Koxx but I got very surprised. It was much easier to pull up to manuals. Superb balance when standing still on the backwheel. It's a little long but it was much easier to make 180 with.That's my experiance with those two frames. But things like handlebars and steems could make some differense too. The Zoo had a little longer and higher angle on the steem. Edited November 13, 2007 by Henrik Y Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam-Griffin Posted November 13, 2007 Report Share Posted November 13, 2007 Never rode stock my self but the Koxx LB looks ridicoulous and the Pitbull would probably be the choice of most stock riders, i'd go for the Zoo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
