Mikee Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 I like my zoot, it's lots of fun, good to learn on and can handle bigger stuff too so it gets a thumbs up from me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoozie Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 I'm really pleased with my zoot, especially since I've turned it into a single speed. It is quite a heavy bike, but I dont mind that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidehop Stuart Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 I really like the zoots,First time I went on one, it felt really nice on the back wheel and easy to control Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revolver Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 Ah, nate...Your zoot came from James I presume.Hehe.Zoots are good, they feel higher BB'd than the ciguena frame but they are heavier. You can always cut bits out of the frame if you liked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidehop Stuart Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 Revolver... What bike do you ride now then?Still the Cigeuna? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tris Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 I had a zoot. It was my one and only trials bike.Good bike i felt. It was really nice for things like spins and bunnyhops etc. However on the rear wheel it was hard to keep up (because it has a more street geo). So things like gaps and generally poncing about on the rear wheel is quite hard. Maybe with a long stem and high riser bars it might suit a more TGS style.But yea i'd recomend it.BMX now though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Dark Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 im really impressed with mine, in my opinion nicer than the heatsink mk2.......not quite as good as te inspired but im working on the setup...pm me i you've got any questions, setup is everything, so with a new bar/stem combo the bike'll feel totally different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nate Posted November 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 cheers guys what would the best bar stem set up be from experince. i ride more streety trials Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revolver Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 I would go for a 110x25 or 30, and some viz max bars.I think so anyway, that's what I'd have on my 24", lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Dark Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 85mm x 10* stem with 20mm of stackers and some 2" rise bars, e.g some wingbars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revolver Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 Wing bars, eh?It annoys me that it's hard to find wing oversized clamp bars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Dark Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 Wing bars, eh?It annoys me that it's hard to find wing oversized clamp bars.same, was going to use an echo control stem....but now ive got a kore one as i cant find me bar shim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revolver Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 same, was going to use an echo control stem....but now ive got a kore one as i cant find me bar shim Show us a picture of your bar and stem combo.At the moment, I'm using some azonic world force bars, 2in of rise, and an amoeba stem, possibly 60mm, 10deg rise. Something like that.Riding it now, I can feel al I need is a nice, possibly 20deg, 100m stem, something like that. Thing is, I don't want to rely on a shim.Reckon I should just shim it?

Revolver Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 alright It gives me more options for bars.I'd like to run wing bars or firebars, but firebars are cromo and heavy, and both of them come in bmx sizing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too much rise I think.Funny, my wing pars are bmx sized. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
