Another CAD pic of the zoo 26". According to the guy who posted the pic on OT, there will be two versions: 1090mm WB and +25mm BB and the other one is 1070mm WB and +10mm BB. And both of them have horizontal dropouts and 377mm chainstays.

wtf is this??? 116mm!? Who builts a 116mm rear hub out there? That means no more king, hope pro2 etc... They seem to give a shit about the common hub spacing standards... Only works with a special Adamant 116mm hub? lol That's ridiculous! I hope that it's not the final drawing...

Oohh you silly sausage, they are made that wide for the snail-cams/chain tugs to fit inside the frame. :rolleyes:

Its the same as the zoo/echo frames that are out now.

"silly sausage" lool

As it is a stock frame, I was shocked at first, seeing the strange hub spacing...

Didn't know that 116mm is the common spacing for mod hubs with snail cams... :$

Well, even if it is 116mm so that you can run snail cams on a 110mm hub, then it still is a STOCK frame, which should have 135mm rear hub spacing so that you can run a King or a Hope or any other decent hub instead of Dengs crap.

Basically with that spacing the only options are a BMX King or going FFW and running a mod rear hub. If Deng really does produce all his new frames with that rear hub spacing, then I think there are more than enough riders who don't want to get rid of their Hopes/Kings and will buy a frame that is not made by Deng. Stupid decision by him if you ask me.
