Sponge Posted July 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 I rode someone's Zhi... it sits on the backwheel nicer than my short Python does. I couldn't tell much else about it, as it was a short go...I feel like holding a little game on TF, with maybe a Zhi green stickerset and a black Zhi shirt up for grabs... Something like what JT did on april fools day for his Tlite.Possibly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synergy Posted July 21, 2006 Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 i keep looking at those zhi bars and i want some :@ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egg Fried Rice Posted July 21, 2006 Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 (edited) i just emailed my uncle about a bike shop in Hong Kong.told him to get me a price list for some frames out there and some other stuffif i get anything i might sell it and get some profit for it JKEDIT: are you planning to sell any of this stuff? lol Edited July 21, 2006 by J-KAY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sponge Posted July 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 One lucky person called Chris Antoniou is getting those Control forks, Zhi bars, and booster.. for his new Limey/King/Tensile combo off ebay..

Egg Fried Rice Posted July 21, 2006 Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 how much was the tyres, forks, cranks, rims and all that?JK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sponge Posted July 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 Forgot to say, to those of you still interested... They have Echo Pure 04 frames here .. One of them got sold yesterday evening, could have taken a pic! Funnily enough, the 04 Pures are still pricier than 06 Pures... due to metal I think, I doubt in China that they care about novelty of models, more about material i guess.. Maxxis, Koxx, CK, Profile, Tryall, White Industries, and Onza are pricey here... hardly any profit for the shopkeepers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Posted July 21, 2006 Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 Damn, I'm so jealous! Awesome pics, I wish I could ride there! Beautiful... But won't there be some trouble at the airport with all the parts in your luggage? I mean will you have to pay any custom/import fees?

JT! Posted July 21, 2006 Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 (edited) Who's going to be shitting himself going through customs?Sponge is! Edited July 21, 2006 by JT! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted July 21, 2006 Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 lol... I'd be pissed off, if I had to pay more than I get, when selling the stuff... But maybe it isn't that much to pay at the customs... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted July 21, 2006 Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 That's such a beautiful looking place! The bike parts 'n' stuff are cool, but that place just looks so nice. Ridiculously picturesque. I wonder though if the people there appreciate what they have or whether they feel jealous of the sorta places we live in? Unlikely That Zhi frame looks kinda nice, good to hear it's got a shorter back end. It's cool that YaoZhi's sorta helping out with the Chinese scene too...Have fun getting all that shit in your suit-case, and don't worry about the stem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sponge Posted July 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 Hurray, the JT post!Putting it in the luggage suitcases and shit are all fine... the smaller bits can go in my rucksack easy. I've done it before a few years ago with a kiddy BMX taken apart, no problems at all so long as its in a suitcase with clothing. Plus I'm only bringing one frame back, for myself, all the rest is small-ish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
