Muel Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 I would have been interested in one of the Limey mods, had it been made with a beefy disc mount and had come out before the 08 Echo Lite.I'm liking Onza's new thinking with bringing out some higher end components. It will be interesting to see how it pans out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaRtZ Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 I saw that rim drilling on an overly drilled german rider's bike about 2 years ago Im sure. It had cranks drilled out too if I rememberAnyway I love onza bringing out new stuff. Cheap frames etc appeal to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monkeyseemonkeydo Posted March 4, 2008 Report Share Posted March 4, 2008 Just as a note for Mike and Onza, any chance of updating the Supercycles site? It's been like that for as long as I can remember and is awkward to navigate and a lot of stuff doesn't even seem to be on there. The actual Onza site itself is even worse... I mean the team page hasn't been updated since 2002 for jebus' sake! Online presence means quite a bit these days (especially in trials it seems) and if you're trying to improve people's perceptions of the company and open up to a wider following, that would make a big difference in my opinion.

Joe@Onza Posted March 4, 2008 Report Share Posted March 4, 2008 Should have taken the Onza one off line a while ago, Both sites are currently being re-done. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Poyzer @ Onza Posted March 4, 2008 Report Share Posted March 4, 2008 The mod frames shown in those earlier postings were design concepts which we developed and ultimately rejected around four years ago. We thus allowed that particular manufacturer to produce them under his own brand but as far as I am aware, nobody else ever took them on, although there are aspects which have been incorporated in current designs. We still have three of the prototypes here in the factory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waynio Posted March 5, 2008 Report Share Posted March 5, 2008 white as a frame colour came into conversation alot. white seems to be the new black!!!!! its deffinatly a colour in fashion, i cant wait for someone to be able to anodise white!!!! as my prototype "Pro Series" onza frame will be white.

Muel Posted March 5, 2008 Report Share Posted March 5, 2008 (edited) White frames are the new silver more like.Look at the sexiest bikes of 2007, Ali Cs Ashton proto and Danny Butler's white limey. White is definately, in.EDIT: Danny's new Atomz is also white. Edited March 5, 2008 by Muel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe@Onza Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 (edited) The Taiwan post,I'm tired, but here you go. Pictures of the new Pro series from our Stand in Taipei.The Limey 20", Weight 1.74 Kg The Limey 3 , Weight 1.7Kg (hydroformed 26" ), Weight 1.74 Kg The Ice, (one with holes for the hose) Weight 1.78Kg The new Tensile Fork concept idea for have a 20" slash 26" frame.some more pics, Ill put Geo and some organized blub when i get back to the UK.The Limey 3 might not be called the Limey 3, I just needed to call it somethingTensile fork weighs about 820 with the new fluted steerer which looks pretty pimp through the new Head tube design Met a lot of face's here and they all really like the new 26", Cheers Edited August 13, 2008 by Joe@Onza Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grantham Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 parts are looking great joe, good to see what they look like after seeing the drawings, steerer tube design looks an intresting concept whats the reasoning behind it? a stiffer structure?

ZeroMatt Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 The one with all the oddly shaped tubing looks ace.Would the forks have a race attached allready or wil lyou have to buy some strange headset for it to work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan6061 Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 I really like the Ice and the Limey mod, but not they colours they're in. Hint of greeny sorta colour with white..?I'm really liking this one - Click (won't let me post the image?)What model is this?Looks like a reeaaallyyy low Zona.
