Simpson Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 Looking for a Long mod with a high BB, Ideally Wheelbase: 1025mm Chainstay Length: 362mm BB Rise: +85mm Head Angle: 71.5 degrees Centre of BB shell to top centre of head tube: 620mm And yes I know that that's the same geometry as a maladie! I freeking love the frame but its so close to being in 2 peices and I destroyed it first ride, but it rides so so well I'm not sure wether anything else is going to replace it, Also need another frame to take on the 24 tour as a backup for when it does finally die. So any ideas would be greatly appriciated, because I am literally up shit creek at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 (edited) Monsterboy. My mate has one, and if it had a properly long wheelbase (1050ish), it'd be my perfect mod. If you are after a spare frame, I have a T-Lite I need to shift? It's the short version though, so 990, +50 and mega short stays.

Muel Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 Could I interest you in a Zona Zip? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 Zips ride so nicely... Mine was the geo you've got listed in your original post but +55 or +60. Worked out as being either 1035mm or 1045mm long. That frame was a whopper though. Had it in my TGS phase and it was swish for that kind of business.

Mine is a later one. 1053WB and +50bb when I measured it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 Nah, mine was production. Had the proto FallGuy forks on though which mixed things up a bit. Had a proto long T-Lite that was around 1035mm with a 350mm back end though. That was interesting. FunFact: Swapped that frame with Will Arnold for a T-Pro, and we both cracked our respective new frames on the same day as each other.

Muel Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 I want that T-Lite. I ran T-Pro forks on my first Zip. 1075WB with a +55bb, and about a 60D head angle. It was actually pretty nice when I got used to it, I could roll up stuff that I can't tap now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simpson Posted July 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 Neon's are shite had one before and it ate itself, if a company can't think to design their frames propperly then I aint buying one. And Zona Zips are just tankly, I mean I'm no uber light comp boy but I'm no weight lifter either! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan6061 Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 Man up Simps! Zona's don't even feel heavy when you ride them. I might have to build mine again soon, the headtube on my Neon is a bit flared. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 my Neon my Neon my Neon What the f**k if this shit about? You changed frames?! After like 5 years of running the same Zona? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncy H Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 I'm pretty sure the cls onza should be out soon which should fill your desire. There was one on the onza stand at the national last weekend. Fire onza an email Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Grainger Posted July 22, 2010 Report Share Posted July 22, 2010 might be looking to get rid of my zoo 07 if your interested. its the long version, like 1025 i think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan6061 Posted July 22, 2010 Report Share Posted July 22, 2010 What the f**k if this shit about? You changed frames?! After like 5 years of running the same Zona? Didn't you know!? I bought a Neon conquereoroeoroer frame off my mate for £80. I fancied a change! It's shorter than the Zona, but doesn't feel it. It's much lighter too! But now has a slightly flared headtube as my Chris King has started to fall apart and I stupidly rode with it loose! Either going back to the Zona, or build my mate's spare T-Pro...
