2011 Frames?

[Jackk-08]

Hey,

Looking at buying a new frame for Spring 2011, does anyone know of any good frames coming out for around that time?

When do the new frames tend to be released?

Thanks

There aren't really set times when frames get released - it's not really like the rest of the cycling world where everyone tends to release them at the same time. As far as spring 2011 goes, Echo and Zoo have new frames out then.

Mark do you know if Onza will be doing anything new with their stock bikes for 11'?

I know they mentioned tweaking their 26" line a while back, and some of their riders are testing newer Limey frames as far as I'm aware...

Yep - there's a few proto frames out that have been tested for a fair while now. From what I gather there's a load being shipped either currently or in the near future, though that may or may not contain any production models

I'm intrigued at what may appear after Christmas as I'll be buying a new frame.

The next Onza 26" frame is gonna be sweeet, trust.

I don't know much about companies other that Zoo! and Echo. Pretty sure that Echo will release new 2011 Team and Lite frames along with a new range of parts and such,

and Zoo are releasing new Zoo Piranha and Python frames. Neil Tunnicliffe recently got his proto 2011 Piranha.

Im looking forward to it though, especially the new Python

I'm sure I heard there is not going to be a zoo python and there is only going to be a echo 20" and 26" in disk or magura? I'm sure someone will corect me if I'm wrong

Zoo Python and Piranha news from Mr. Tunnicliffe himself

Keeps saying there will be photos and updates on his website soon

As the Echos go thats along the lines of what I'd heard, I'm looking forward to seeing the final products

Seeing as he thought his Piranha was a Pitbull, I'd guess the Python is in fact a Lynx. But that's just names.

4 new frames have been released so far, 3 Echo's and 1 Zoo. There are bound to be more, at the moment Echo has a lineup of just two mod bikes - a GU LE and 20" Echo - which for one of the largest trials manufacturers is not a massive number. Echo have been focusing more on single parts than frames recently and I'd expect few novelties in the frame department until the TR SL and Urban range are complete.

According to a reliable source in China as of earlier of this year, a long geo Python ala 04/05/06 was/is supposed to be coming... But plans always change so there's no guarantee.

It seems a fairly unheard of geo in recent years, as the trend seems to be massively high BBs and short reach/cs.
