wayn3 Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 I think i'm going to buy a Zoo! Python 05 but i don't no what size to get, i currently have a Onza T-mag (which i snapped at the head tube), and i am looking for more hight and i am 5 foot 8 which do you think will suit me better the long or short. Thanks wayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 I don't think that your height affects it too much, i've seen really short people on bikes that are about as long as them, and also i've seen tall people on bikes like the T-Vee and T-Bird, so i really think it's up to you, shorter bikes are easier to bunny hop on. Hope this helps mate!Mike!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sponge Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 I'm about your height too, I like the feel of both Pythons, but it depends on what sorta riding you like... CLS one is by far superior for static gaps, and Yao Zhi one is just a tad flickier. CLS one also helps on natural more... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technical Tom Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 Hi, im about 5ft 8" and i have the 06 python 1045 wheelbase, but with my forks on it's 1050 and i used to ride a t-pro and the difference in the wheelbase on the python is soooo much nicer, if i was you go for the longer wheelbase you will benifit in the future from a longer wheelbase.Hope i helped,Tom.

koxx1 Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 the long is cool but if you're the kind that likes to do bunny hopes and the more street style riding i suggest the short Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaffacakes Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 The best thing to do is just have a go on both and see how you like them. I don't really like long bikes at all, infact anything over about 1010 I hate . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
