Mike Poyzer @ Onza Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 Still waiting for the final prototype. Scheduled for release as a bike just after Christmas. May come sooner if released as frame only. I haven't decided yet.PS. I just returned from holiday and read the thread about our new "Cleaner". The Hitman is based on the existing T-Rex frame and the Cleaner has the new hydroformed down tube. Ref. the Cleaner, did you guys not see Pulp Fiction or the Assassin. Every Hitman has a Cleaner. Harvey Keitel in a pinafore, I don't think so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bessell Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 Can i get some more info on the Dual frame? ( I really want one) Release dates?..ore design changes or something?You really want an onza? you ok? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basher Posted August 28, 2007 Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 You really want an onza? you ok?What have people seriously got against onza. Is it because they are known for having a good starter range so thats all people think they are good for and dont make any quality products?? They are a very decent company in my eyes and especially lately have put alot of thought into products, the zip is a quality frame at a very cheap price, the limey is a top notch frame thats had alot of thought put into it. I dont think anyone can complain about the tensile range thats spot on really. I dont see whats wrong with them it kind of sadens me thats so many people put them down.

chrishayton Posted August 28, 2007 Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 Colour is pearlised white.why lol. not bad compared to some previous efforts, but just stick to boring colours as people like them more. honestly i think every onza should come in the colour of the first limey. that was amazing then you stuck green stickers all over it.

Has anyone seen my shoe? Posted August 29, 2007 Report Share Posted August 29, 2007 Yeah I think the Mk1 limey is my favourite looking bike ever.They were just gorgeous! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe@Onza Posted September 18, 2007 Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 We have just had an air shipment in and the Onza Lime citrus were in it, Amongst some other things like Hogniesum pedals etc.The Lime Citrus pad is made from a slightly harder compound and is designed for light grind rims. Competitively priced like the Lemon pads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe@Onza Posted September 19, 2007 Report Share Posted September 19, 2007 Right, This is a bit more of an announcement rather a new product, The Limey2 does not have a wheel base of 1100! Neither did the Limey1!! Its actually 1085! This news has come about after finding that our lite guy forks that we measured it with have a large rake on them. After measuring it with different forks including other branded forks it comes out at 1085!I apologies for any riders that have been mis lead, But at least all you other riders that wanted a slightly shorter version have one now, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basher Posted September 19, 2007 Report Share Posted September 19, 2007 So was the wheelbase on the first limey also 1085? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan. Posted September 19, 2007 Report Share Posted September 19, 2007 (edited) hang on am i being stupid or has a company not checked their own product so technically if you haven't, you have mislead many trials riders across the country who ride your frames?

basher Posted September 19, 2007 Report Share Posted September 19, 2007 Anyone know what those citrus pads are like???good on smooth not on grind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Poyzer @ Onza Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 The lemons are slightly softer for no grind and the limes are slightly harder for a light grind. Watch out for the Orange and Pink Grapefruit in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 The yellow ones don't work on a smooth rim. My bro is using them with tar, which makes them pretty good, I used to have a set with a light grind, which was amazing but they wore out really quick.

Krisboats Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 (edited) I thought the limeys were awesome for having a 1100 wheelbase. Now they're just standard bikes It feels like the day i found out santa isn't real Edited September 20, 2007 by Krisboats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JT! Posted September 30, 2007 Report Share Posted September 30, 2007 He's 8ft73" tall...I supposed that length appeals to him?2.5cm extra? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JT! Posted September 30, 2007 Report Share Posted September 30, 2007 I don't get all this fuss over wheel bases anyway, it's the cockpit length that determines how long or short a bike will feel anyway...Yeah, it was just a weird comment that's all.He's either ridden the bike, and it felt good to ride, then he's found out it's shorter, and now he doesn't like it.or...He's never ridden the bike and just judging it on it's WB alone.Either way...

I thought they were nice and long, so it gives more clearance for things like wheelswaps (which i find awkward with smaller WB bikes due to the bikes short length and my long legs). Whilst i never tried big wheelswaps on a limey, my next frame will be 1100 just for the fact its that little bit closer to being the right size for me.How can they be awsome just for having a 1100 WB?They're not awesome because of that alone, but it sets them in the group that very few other frames are in with them being nice and long. The others seem to have silly high bb rise which is annoying and the limeys look nice. If they're around the 1085-1090mm mark they're similar to cheaper frames like adamants, controls and pitbulls... which don't have the reputation of not withstanding everyday street riding like the mk1 limeys.
