Gandalf the Yellow Posted September 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 what a beauty! but is it really 1080 with that 45 mm rake fork - would be a super short reach...? I'll have a measure tomorrow with them forks. where could i get one steve http://www.biketrialseller.com/ go go go. I've got a new Tryall stem now and it rides absolutely lovely, it's taking me a ride or 2 to get used to it. Thanks for the comments so far guys.

Matt Vandart Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 just a few questions.. are biketrialseller.com an abroad company? how much is shipping? whats the bike good for ? street ? natty? thanks matt Matt, Awesome for both. It is short feeling in terms of its reach. Perfect for me, I'm 5ft 6 ish. Dave Kerr rides one and he's pretty tall (to me anyway ) we'll probs be riding in Newquay or Aberystwyth some time in the near future dude, get a look at one then.

STEVE-0 Posted October 26, 2010 Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 Amazing looking bike, if you can afford it get a try-all stem on there to finish it off! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i like cunning stunts Posted October 26, 2010 Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 just ordered one of these. Wasnt sure on the length but think there worth a punt. For £150 delivered it aint bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julius Czar Posted October 26, 2010 Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 Looks amazing! I love them frames, ZHI have definately stepped up their game on the frames front, spec looks pimp too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i like cunning stunts Posted October 26, 2010 Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 Forgot to say what do you think of that front tyre? Thinking of going back to maxxis at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gandalf the Yellow Posted October 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 Amazing looking bike, if you can afford it get a try-all stem on there to finish it off! I already have and it looks lovely, it rides a lot better too! Forgot to say what do you think of that front tyre? Thinking of going back to maxxis at the moment. yeah it's good for street which is mainly what I ride, I used to have nobby nic's and they were a bit better for a bit of both. my larsen's always been a little bit better when it comes to flats though! thanks for the comments so far guys. all good it seems! ** for those interested in the geo** I've measured it and it comes to 1075 with Urban forks, with that high bb it somehow does ride really nice as long as you get the bar and stem set up right!

Alex Dark Posted October 30, 2010 Report Share Posted October 30, 2010 IS this frame actually comfortable for you? Really want one, but i'm 5 10. Does it feel cramped at all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gandalf the Yellow Posted November 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2010 IS this frame actually comfortable for you? Really want one, but i'm 5 10. Does it feel cramped at all? It is, bike feels shorter but I'm 5 10 as well and I loved every 1075 wheelbase bike I've owned (had 1085/1090 before and it was just alright). but the high bb and my further reach just somehow makes it feel so flickable. to be honest even when it had a standard trialtech stem it felt not cramped, but it didn't ride nice. so the answer is no! try one if you can, its very different to many other bike's I've ridden before.
