cai Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 Hey,Does anyone know what the geo of Zona Zips are?Or how they compare with long Pythons?Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Brodie Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 basically exactly the same geo as the python however the wb is around 1045mm instead of 1055mm with the python..rob.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 1045mm WB with echo lites, +45mm BB if I remember rightly, shorter chainstays than a python though, so the bb is a little closer to the rear wheel.Mine rode pretty nice, it was mega for street bashing. I kinda want another one now, if they didn't weigh about 2.5kg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan6061 Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 Muel, stop being a weight fag. The head angle is 72, and wheelbase is 1040 (I think that's what mine is?)I dunno... I just ride it. Get one though, they're seriously good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossMcd Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 I love mine!rides well on both natty and street!the only difference between the zona and the python is the chainstay length and the weld length at the front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giddy Koxx Boy Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 Hey, if you are thinking of buying a zona, DONT!'I bought one it had drilled try all rims echo forks the lot and it still weighed 11.8kg!Seriosly i bought it, then sold it within a week (only lost £5) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossMcd Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 My zona is one of the lightest bikes i have riden imo.has monty forks and echo wheel builds and there is no problem with wieght.People who want light bikes are just wimpy and have no muscle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeCottTrials Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 My zona rides really well im happy as 2 bollocks with it, i would say it is heavy but i dont notice until i get on a different bike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muel Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 (edited) Hey, if you are thinking of buying a zona, DONT!'I bought one it had drilled try all rims echo forks the lot and it still weighed 11.8kg!Seriosly i bought it, then sold it within a week (only lost £5)They are heavy frames, I weighed mine at 2.4kg I think, but that's only half a kilo heavy than most frames, if that.Basically, ignore this guy, you could get it under 9.5kg pretty easily I think if you wanted.EDIT: 11.8kg? LOL! Mine was 11.5kg, with T-Pro forks, (still have them, weighed them yesterday, 1.4kg), T-Pro wheels, T-Pro bar and stem, Muscleman cranks etc. Basically, try and imagine a heavier spec. Exactly, you can't. Edited April 22, 2008 by Muel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Dark Posted April 23, 2008 Report Share Posted April 23, 2008 11.8kg seems way overboard!My mates one feels a lot lighter than that ( onza t-bird rear wheel, echo cnc'd front wheel, tensiles, full hs33s, t-poo forks )They're not bad bikes...and certainly one of the nicest riding mods ive been on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1337 Trials Posted April 23, 2008 Report Share Posted April 23, 2008 Glad to see they are decent frames. Was looking into getting one as I can afford a zona zip first hand rather than get a python or echo second hand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
