manuel Posted March 21, 2008 Report Share Posted March 21, 2008 you need a ghetto spray job - looks waaay too new !!

Tom Booth Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 Looks cool, Was'nt the Zoot based on the ET geo wise? with exception of the seatstays and toptube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew62 Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 Wasn't it the 24UK? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al_Fel Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 You should have got an inspired. lol. Its looks alright but it does look over built and chunky I hope its does the trick for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 Yeah, I agree. It just doesn't look particularly refined, at all.I don't get why the seat angle isn't increased either, just to make it easier to slam the seat, should you want to? Kinda looks a bit turds with them that high, and knowing the Macneil seats sit relatively far forward anyway, and the way your's is nearly touching the tyre, I don't really get what sort of gash looking setup you'd have to run to slam it properly.

AdamR28 Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 Was'nt the Zoot based on the ET geo wise?No, it was ripped directly from the very first Inspired proto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnyMilton Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 (edited) ...I like the parts......shame about the frame... Not to keen on the MK2 frame, to much detail(example the brake mounts no need for every type of brake mount, to be on one frame)...

thewoomaster Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 Davetrials said that this bike is the worst 24'' ever ,i said that was bullshit and that the worst looking 24 is an Onza Zoot, as it is as ugly and as cheap as shit!! Thats why.So you every ridden a zoot? oh let guess there to heavy (lift some weight's u wimp lol) thats poo. Can't see why most hate the zoot, the frame is the best thing about the zoot true?Yes i got one and have re-spec it, sprayed it up, and gotta say think you all chat shite about zoot cos it ride's bloody mint! Also the colours they brought out with the zoot are poo, the geo is as sweet as any 24inch bike if not one of the best as the Inspired Fourplay is almost the same? Yet that's the best 24inch bike why? cos its got a seat but we all want a Inspired Fourplay (like dave's Inspired )oh me 2 , anywayz nice bike dude in white please Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMunn Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 That bike looks terrible...I thought the frame looked okay but seeing it built up has warped my mind. Never mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Winton. Posted March 23, 2008 Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 Looks fit.nothing wrong with zoots, stop being fannys about them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Bleech Posted March 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 you need a ghetto spray job - looks waaay too new !! I think the thing that makes it look wierd is the skinny forks - some fat urban thingies would suit it betterits pretty cool though...Give it a couple of weeks and it will look ghetto I agree the forks do look a bit skinny, but there aren't any urban types about with 24" mounts Someone should make some. Like i said the seat is lower now and I am playing about with the bar height to get it feeling right.You should have got an inspired. lol. Its looks alright but it does look over built and chunky I hope its does the trick for you.The inspired are lovely frames but the bottom bracket is way to high for me. Been on 5 or 6 and not got on with any of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also man.....i'm buff so no wprries about the weight, if i can bunnyhop my 40lb Kona high enough, i dont think a little old Zoot will be too much trouble. Don;t be so defensive over your ride, atleast you like the way it looks, i dont...who cares? You carry on enjoying it and i'l stay away from it.Also, the 24uk is growing on me, but the front cable guides are silly! Looking forward to seeing it messed up!
