i am very keen on the zoot i think thats the one i will go for because its cheap yet everyone that i have asked say that they are quality. at £550 that should leave me with some extra cash to do it up a little.

if you are getting the zoot as a full build, just a few tips thatll help you make it better:

*dump the dh tubes, they have them front and rear, it saves a hell of alot of weight and makes the bike far more responsive

*dump the front tyre(keep as a spare rear) and get a lighter front 1, something like a dmr moto digger is perfect (Y)

*the standard rear hub is pretty good, its got several ep (something like 48 and has 6 pawls) so for a begginer itll be fine, i only used mine for once night, before i built my new pro 2 up on it :) my friend now has the onza hub and so far, its been reliable and responsive

*the bar and stem setup, i found the bars were too low and the stem too short, get a stem around 90x10/15 and some bars with about 2inch of rise(i run 2.5 doublewalls)-itll feel perfecto then for spinny street manouvres

*the standard cassette doesnt have a suitable gear, it only allows 22:18 or 22:15 which is a bit annoying as 18 is too low and 15 is too high, so you will need to source a 17t or 16t sprocket depending on your style, i found 22:17 to feel almost identical to 22:18 on a 26 (Y)

*a new chain wouldnt be a bad idea, the standard ones are shite, get a kmc kool (Y)

have fun
