Oldskooltrials Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 I've been wanting to build this up for a while, and as i had my tools out from building the Pashley yesterday i thought i'd pull my finger out and get it done. Not my ideal set up to be honest,the original back wheel is f**ked so I've had to use the only one I have that works. It's brakeless purely out of laziness on my part, I've got some old Raceline D's that i may put on in the future? Geo is 1035,400,-10,69-70ish headangle. Just had a quick burn up and down the street and it feels surprisingly good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Endohopper Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 Absolutely beautiful ! For a second I mistook that cable guide on the seatstay as the upper post of a pair of 4 bolt Magura mounts and thinking I was certain that these were V brake frames . The whole black , blue and white vibe looks really elegant and you show great taste by running an Azonic riser . Damned nice ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalopS Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 Looks ace. Keep it brakeless! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross McArthur Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 (edited) Looks great man! Very clean. Seat clamp and push in plastic seat? Edited March 3, 2011 by Ross McArthur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldskooltrials Posted March 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 I measured it again and it's definitely 1035,but with my (very poor) riding skills i don't think 10mm would make any difference! The photos are a bit dodgy,my camera seems to struggle with bright stuff for some reason? Maybe i need to use the manual functions rather than the auto setting? I like the shape of those old Azonic's but they seem to snap a bit too easily, I'll look into that seat clamp but i think the seat falls out without it? It needs a D521 on the back and some new tyres, there's bugger all tyre clearance on the back of it hence all the side nobbles being cut off. I cant stand tyre or brake rub. If I'm allowed out at the weekend I'll see if i can film some woeful brake-less riding Thanks for all the comments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erikjon Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 I'm loving the Zero bro! Never saw a Zero here in Singapore but this one looks the business! I'm a big fan of Old Skool trial bikes so keep the vintage fire going! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldskooltrials Posted March 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 that bike is a treasure on wheels. it looks like new . The pictures make it look better than it is,but considering its over 10 years old its not bad. I just need to find the money to finish it off. Then I'm going to rebuild this beast.

Rusevelt Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 Bet this steed brings back fond memories for Mr Petr Kraus. Upgrade the stem to a Trialtech highriser. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
