Jason222 Posted December 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 (edited) Haha Hydroxx and echoNot really. These frames are fairly unique as far as ZHI's history goes. One might think Hydroxx when one looks at the Z3R, but if you compare it to the Hydroxx 2 they're nothing alike. I don't see where you're going with the B5R looking like an echo? Looks more like a Sky frame from everything behind the headtube. Edited December 22, 2009 by Jason222 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, there's only so many ways to make a trials frame...I agree with the bionic dropout thing. Although I'd prefer dob dropouts, they're similar again, but even more minimalist.

Shaun H Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 Those cranks are going to be about as torsionally stiff as a piece of overcooked spaghetti... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave33 Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 Those cranks are going to be about as torsionally stiff as a piece of overcooked spaghetti...i rode the bike of the main zhi rider when i was in china, he had thoses cranks and they felt pretty stiff to me, even though i couldnt do to much as the brakes are the wrong way for me, im sure the the bionic bike has his parts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
