Trials Boy Posted July 9, 2005 Report Share Posted July 9, 2005 Hi All, I'm thinking of replacing my Orange Zero Frame. I'm 5 foot 8 and i'm 13 (So growing kinda' fast (Y) ) Which frame would you all recommend? I was maybe thinking of a Short Control? My budget is around £200 so second hand. I wouldn't be getting it yet, say September ish (My birthday) Help appreciated guys. Thanks, Mat (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

butcha87 Posted July 10, 2005 Report Share Posted July 10, 2005 Base TA26 or you could wait for the new Saracen, apparently a good ride!Maybe a second hand Zebdi, Pashley or an Echo control/pure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UrbanPoet Posted July 10, 2005 Report Share Posted July 10, 2005 Thats your opineon, i may like my zero better than a Base, and what is so 'Disgusting' about them? :) ← I don't get why people hate Zero's so much. I absolutely loved mine and it served me well. Anyways, I'd suggest a new school frame, long, low but maybe not silver. Control, BT 5 etc. I'm sure you can get a second hand one of those for cheap.
