isitafox Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 The forks will be part of the problem, they weigh a tonne (bout 1.6kg I think) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VAMPIRE V12 Posted October 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2012 They are a heavy set of forks the only reason why i'm keeping them is because it matches the paint job haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Anscombe Posted October 27, 2012 Report Share Posted October 27, 2012 (edited) set of white forks would finish it off i think treat your bike to a lighter fork! Edited October 27, 2012 by Dave Anscombe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeCottTrials Posted October 27, 2012 Report Share Posted October 27, 2012 (edited) I have just got a zoot and have to admit the front end doesn't pick up as easily as I'd like. Will definitely be after a different stem+lighter fork. Anyone know what the standard stem geo is? EDIT: Found it 110mm x 20 degree That would be a considerable change now that I've seen that. Changing for sure Edited October 27, 2012 by MikeCottTrials 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Changing for sure Aye its a good starter bike but you have to mod it a bit to get it anywere good. But i guess once you have modded it and the frame goes you just use all the parts from your old build and a new frame and by that time you have lernt a lot about street enough to warrent getting a new frame Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ogre Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 i really liked my zoot! i found a 70x25 stem with trialtech high riser bars was f**king awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CC12345678910 Posted November 6, 2012 Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 (edited) It was a BBB 90x35 with some trialtech high rise bars. Made the front end much easier to pull up I used the 110mm x 35 system ex on the 10mm stack and pre-cut standard forks, the change on the rise was enough to tip the balance yet not really shorten the reach. Aye its a good starter bike but you have to mod it a bit to get it anywere good. But i guess once you have modded it and the frame goes you just use all the parts from your old build and a new frame and by that time you have lernt a lot about street enough to warrent getting a new frame Left it standard apart from beefed back brake (home brew steel booster and inspired fats), aforementioned stem ^, some MAD phase bars (TT standard rise copies) and some TT thick foams and BB. Would have played further but this happened.due to a piece of faulty billet at around 3 to 3.5 months. still a brilliant bike though, still got most of bits to build another one. need a green decal frame and pro2 set-up. The warranty credit at TB meant I could afford a 2011 fourplay frame mind. Had it a year now and only just got it to a standard where I'd say i'm 'finished', it's liitte niggles not great mountains anymore.

VAMPIRE V12 Posted November 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 shame about your zoot snapping but it looks like all trials bikes will end up like this one day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CC12345678910 Posted November 7, 2012 Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 (edited) hopefully not the fourplay, i like it too much.... no,no, this ones gonna keep going till its considered 'old skool' like orange ms isles and zeros and pashleys, honest. ha I wouldn't worry about your zoot either, I took mine back to TB in person and adam said it was the first one back in bits. he he i won something! A BIG RECIEPT!! Edited November 7, 2012 by CC12345678910 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
