Ryan-Trials Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 No it wont fit, the clearance between the zona bashplate and onza t-bird cranks wont go so you will have to run bashless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan-Trials Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 Scott21 rides bashless, He has no trouble. He was asking if it would all fit, not weather he could ride bashless.I answered his question and the answer was no it wouldnt all fit.

Dan6061 Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 The headset, crankset, and backwheel won't fit. Unless you have a 19" rear wheel?I'm sure I had issues with my old 24t sprocket not fitting the Zona Zip frame properly, maybe it was because the chain ran so high up compared to an 18:12 set up? Don't remember now..The headset's in the T-Birds and internal, and the Zonas are external, so that'd need to be replaces.Zonas take a 19" rear wheel, not a 20" one like the T-Birds have, so you'd need a new wheel too.They are brilliant frames though, I've had a go on a Zoo before, and I much prefered my Zona to it, felt easier on the backwheel.They're a little on the heavy side though, but I can't really feel it when I ride mine!

RETROLEO Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 Well I had a saracen 2.ZERO, and I had to buy an new BB because the chain ring did not clear the frame.This could also be a problem for you but I just picked up a Toxsin one of ebay for about £20.This could help, but I think it would be a better idea to sell some of the parts off the T-bird and e.g. Frame, Crank, BB, Rear Free Wheel and so on. But some parts e.g. wheels, bars and stem could be used again all though I would recommend upgrading the forks because they weigh a ton.Hope Iv helped. Leo.
