Andeee Posted August 6, 2010 Report Share Posted August 6, 2010 Hi there folks after getting back into trials i am really tempted to get a new frame. I currently ride a echo pure 06.5 which was running a 10+ b.b and 1075 length. Feels good to ride but am looking for something ith a lot more b.b height for street riding. Few questions regards of swapping parts from my pure to the zoo. Whats the maximum tyre width the frame will take as i am currently running a 2.35 highroller if it takes wider i may go back to a michelin hot s. Also in my echo it took a 127.5mm square taper b.b i was running middleburn cranks will the frame spacing be ok? Also whats the frame like to ride? I come across one video and the guy ridiing it made it look easy to throw about. Also feel free to post pics of yours aswell. Thanks Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Styles Posted August 6, 2010 Report Share Posted August 6, 2010 Hi Andy, welcome back haha well the new zoos feel very nice! i have a few mates who have them and they all love them! im not sure if the middleburns will have enough clearance on the chainstays, whats the offset on the arms? i think the video that you are refering to is from a guy called Neil Tunnicliffe... i ride with him, and i tell you what.. wow lol. his zoo feels really nice aswell! he robs off with my bike, so i do the same to him! the tyre clearance should be fine, the tyre you have now will deffinatly fit. hope ive helped Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laurent Posted August 6, 2010 Report Share Posted August 6, 2010 im wanting zoo piranha frame too. i have read good and bad things about them but it looks really strong and is very light. i dont know how its so light as it has 3 seattubes I used to have one. I rode it for a year or so, and i think this is a really good frame for its price. If you like this kind of geometry, in my opinion it is the best frame you can get for this price. Quite well made, quite resistant and light. A good compromise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
