Steve-A Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 They ALL crack :P thats abit of a generalisation and is quite an old frame and was very popular so oubdviously some are going to crack :) mines fine. There is a know weak point around the bottom bracket/chainstay yoke that is the death of almost all PX Zebdis, nomatter what Mk. Many have broken, not all, but a large percentage.

flower Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 get a planet-x pitbull . VERY strong a tad heavy but you get used to it it dosnt break it breaks walls!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josephine Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 get a planet-x pitbull . VERY strong a tad heavy but you get used to it it dosnt break it breaks walls!!!!! Matt Burrows would disagree, he cracked his at least 5 times when he had one, but in fairness he just got it welded as it was steel. Lesson to be learned; heavy doesn't necessarily mean strong.
