Ha ha that chart confuses the f@#k out of me. I'll just carry on riding the bike. Maybe get Dez have a look at it for me 1 day lol. Thanks anyway though mate. Appreciated.

Ha ha nice 1 Leon. I see now! I would like to lose the tensioner on my element might have a mess with it 1 night.

I'll check on there website, cheers for the help mate.

Cool. Do tarty bikes sell bags of luck?

How does the chain tension on the above inspireds? Ben.

Same place as where my zoot snapped by the sounds of it, I've seen pictures of others that have snapped there as well! I had a mate tig weld mine back together n that lasted another month or 2 then it snapped again so i bought an element.

Great riding. Looks like your having fun on your bike mate.

I ride with Dez sometimes. Would be good to get a few more people out for a ride sometime.

Watched it a few times now. Great riding mate.

Lads got skills

Is it just the colour that's changed?

Yh I can nearly 360 bunny hop on the zoot and from what I read the shorter the bike the easier to spin etc. to be honest I thought my zoot was fairly light so would be good to get some extra weight saving with the inspired. Looks like I'll be getting one towards February time once I've saved a bit of money up. Thanks for your reply mate. Seems like a great forum you lot have running here.

Hi all, I'm pretty new to the site and to the trials scene really, ive always rode mountain bikes since being a youth and was always doing, tricks wheelies, manuels, jumping stairs etc etc on my mountain bikes, I bought a onza zoot last year and have upgraded a few things on it like the bars to some Trialtech high rise bars as I bent the standard steel ones, also upgraded to a avid bb7 disc brake with An sd7 lever and a wheel build by tarty bikes. I progressed resonably well on it considering I've never rode trials before and definatly enjoy it. A couple of weeks ago I managed to snap my zoot frame, hoping up a wall about 2ft high and landing on the rear wheel. Its snapped where the top tube welds to the frame just under the seat. I'm going to get a friend to tig weld it me so I can at least get a little use out of it for the time being, but I definatly want to get a new frame after christmas and the new year have passed. I'm looking at the inspired element frame, apart from the strength of the inspired would it feel much different (easier/better/stability) than my zoot? I don't quite understand the diffrencies in geo's properly yet to be honest. Also would the curved forks from my zoot change the geo or would I better buying the inspired forks as well. (hope I don't sound to much like a noob) Cheers Ben.
