CalopS Posted November 17, 2005 Report Share Posted November 17, 2005 Im swapping my zoo frame with someone on sunday for his monty frame and im wondering if it wont feel right with a zoo bar and stem? Just the monty bar and stem have a price tag of £130 and i dont want to spend all that money if its going to be a waste when the Zoo bar and stem are the same Thanks Carl p.s. if anyone has a spare monty bar and stem lying around give me a pm :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SQuiT-man Posted November 17, 2005 Report Share Posted November 17, 2005 The zoo bar and stem would be one of the best alternative combos IMO- it'll be a tiny bit lower than the monty setup, but still fine. Ive got a zoo stem and a monty stem, and put them on a table held solidly next to eachother with the steerer-clamps flat to the surface, and the rise on my zoo stem is 5mm higher (pretty much nothing- certainly not noticable), they are exactly the same horizontal length. I ran a zoo stem and a pair of onza carbon risers (much lower than the monty high-rise bars, perhaps a bit lower than the zoo bars), and they were great on my monty, so they should go fine. Danny Foster seems to like his that he is running on his monty 221. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
