Aaron.Tottman Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 If you want to ride dual slalom then you go for it.it won't be a bad frame for trials but you might find that that frame is a little harder to keep on the back wheel.not trials geo' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben John-Hynes Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 They're amazing frames,And quality forks.But for £200+, you could get something with a slightly more modern geo.I loved my Zero though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skoze Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 That's gorgeous.Such good condition! They actually ride surprisingly well too if you buy it, please sell me the forks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spode@thinkbikes Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 I think that's a little pricey. It's second hand and you have no idea what the previous rider was like. It could die within 6 months (it WILL if you put a rear disc on it).Also, as much as I loved my Orange Zero, you'll probably learn quicker with a more modern geometry.Throw a few hundred more at it and you could buy a complete bike....
