manuel Posted October 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 I admit it does look a little odd at the moment - Im pretty undecided myself, as to wether or not twas a good idea to spray it or not !! The photos do make it look wierd though - its better in real life.It needs a seat. If only to stop me catching my nuts every time i sit down. and hopefully give it some shape at the back.It needs a booster - but mine doesnt fit as the bosses are too far apart for my viz carbon one !!!It doesnt look as good as the pure ..It rides very differently to the pure .... brake is fairly poor without the booster so i was unable to really rag itgood sidehops (obviously) awesome bunnyhoops, good front wheel stuff - but because my body is in a wierd (for me) position my taps are abit down as I kinda get the timing all wrong ... ah well - it just feels abit wierdy after 2.5 years on the pure.oh well out of the dark (golden?) age and into modern times for me .....RJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yoyoyo Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 It doesnt look as good as the pure ..You said it.Colours not that bad... maybe the forks were a bit too much, but hey at least peeps will still be able to recognise you from a distance.I'd have it though.

Phill_Monks Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 what a waste of spray paintsorry......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tall_Rob Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 I like it....In a way it still sort of looks like the pure but a bit thinner.Great job on the spraying, looks professional.It what you think Rowan. Do you like it?Zoos' are pants with frame flex but i use a heatsink booster to solve that.... try one!Get the seat on it too but i don't really see that working.At least your different to everyone else (all i can hear is sheep on this forum).Good luck dude and hopefully ride again soon if i'm up your way.Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
An_toin3 Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 (edited) not too sure on the color.., but I think it looks good, can you still do them silly long manuals ? All we need is a video on it Edited October 19, 2006 by An_toin3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RicH_87 Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 notice how the 3 zoo bummers all said the same thing i.e. not much...I think it would look alright if it didn't have that massive shit triangle gusset/booster, makes it looks out of proportion at the back.Plus white forks (like the baby blue law says)...and non yellow cable ties.Anyway, it's how you ride it, and no doubt you'll make it look immense.I'm well tempeted to grab and old megamo radica' 20" now or something and paint it baby blue with white forks, riser bars, high stem and a seat.that would be awesome....probably all snapped by now though.

abtrials Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 Really like the bake Rowan, love the colour, then again i loved it when your pure went from yellow to the blue, but the cable ties are other than that really nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE trials commentator Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 i hate Zoo's with a passion,i think they look smacked out.although the blue makes it look a little more elegant,so im inclined to say,this zoo aint too bad.i think i might have some baby blue coloured cable ties if you want?ill have a look an chuck em in the post.Carl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Jones Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 Looks awesome i reckon. I don't know why people dislike it so much. It's different....wish i had the balls to spray my frames that colour.Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boon racoon Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 all you haters...take a hike!it's not silver..big f**king dealif zoo made their frames with cable stops for people who might want to run gears, then he wouldn't have to use zip ties. apart from that it looks DE-licious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bEavoLa Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 and what of the Echo, Rowan - not snapped i hope?that frame should be hung from the wall as a testimony to it's work in great British Trials videos! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greetings Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 Looks beautiful. So similar to the Echo, just a bit lower. Looking foward to your next video Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trials Boy Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 Looks f**king mint mate! Nice job! Lets just hope it rides as well as it looks! Does it..? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadChikken Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 and what of the Echo, Rowan - not snapped i hope?If I remember rightly he found a big crack in the rear dropout Shame it was oh-so sexy! Im kinda undecided on the zoo thus far, will take a look on sunday and then make a final decision. The colour rocks, just not quite sure with all that extra metal compared to the slim smooth lines of the pure....M@ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
