marcus123 Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 hi this mayb a stupid question because im new to trials but is a zona zip an onza? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoyoyo Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Pretty much. I think i remember reading that Onza wanted to keep the two separate or something like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolbeen Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Yer zona is onza but zona is a bit better by doing frames like zoo and echo if you know at i mean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Marcus Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 both are from the same company arnt they! A.K.A onza, but the zona's are 24" or havei got the wrong bike in my mind??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaRtZ Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 but the zona's are 24" or havei got the wrong bike in my mind???No you're just stupid. For a start a zona is not a single frame. its a companysecondly the zona zip, wherever it is written usually has 20" or mod following it closely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Euro Braker Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 I heard Onza were making copy frames like the Zip is a copy of the Python and more. But Onza didnt want them to be called Onza (dunno why) so all copy frames Onza will make will be called Zona. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boris_on_trials Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 I know Onza and Zona are the same .This may sound like i'm a retard but i've just noticed that onza and zona are the same name just rearranged O N Z A + Z O N A ' same letters just thought id point it out.

PaRtZ Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 I know Onza and Zona are the same .This may sound like i'm a retard but i've just noticed that onza and zona are the same name just rearranged O N Z A + Z O N A ' same letters just thought id point it out. Right, Ill type out the whole story to avoid confusionONZA = NOT ENTIRELY ZONA ok? Why would onza decide they want to sell onza frames under a different name. YES they ARE related, onza factories manufacture zona frames and slap zona stickers on. I mean the relationship between the two is VERY close, but that doesn't mean they're the same friggin company!Zona have two frames currently - The zona zip is the mod (or 19" wheeled for those of you who don't know it yet) and the zona zenith stock bike (26") Yes the frame names do both begin with Z's like the company Zona use already existing frame designs and tweak them to improve them. This, along with alternative maufacturing methods + materials is probably why they are so cheap.So in essence. Onza do help their sister company zona out, but zona is a DIFFERENT brand to onza. Think of it as tensile + onza (I know its not the same but as an example) What frames do you know that are manufactured by tensile?OK that should avoid any unessecary confusion now. If I've made a blunder Ill edit it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex.loves.boys Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Wow i just realised somethingonza is zona but with the words mized upi never knew thatreally pointless but hey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoyoyo Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 The zona zip is the mod (or 19" wheeled for those of you who don't know it yet) *Awaits the poor simpletons,getting confused by 19"* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Kearns Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Yer zona is onza but zona is a bit better by doing frames like zoo and echo if you know at i mean.I dont think anybody understands what that means mate.But anyway zona is not really a part of onza, its just there are make replica's of different frames, like for example the t-pro was the replica of the koxx levelboss. The best person to ask really is "OnzaBoyMark". Cheers ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

watto Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 (edited) Onza , Zona Tensile etc are all part of the supercycles group of companys they are run by the same person etc based is the same place , is that simple enough ? Hence if you go to super cycles the logo for all they brands they own/run are listed down the left hand side of the web page .EDIT : Except for maxxis.
