T-Limburn Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 (edited) there is definately a difference, although i dont agree that they feel like try-all flats. i hated the feel of those on peoples bikes that i tried them with, but set up right the new zoo! bars are very nice.EDIT: here are a couple of pics, prawns bars and my bars. look and feel very different Edited February 10, 2007 by T-Limburn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
totaltrials Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 Well thats a load of ballcrap - mine and urban legends bars are significantly different - his old = hirise ... mine new = lowrise ...Well it's clearly not if the person who made them is saying they are the same geometry as they have always been.All the Zoo bars I have had are exactly the same. I'm not disputing there havn't been different geometry bars but if you have seen any which are different then they must be a bad batch.I e-mailed Deng about it again, and yet again he says "The geometry is the same."So the person who makes the bars says they are the same as always twice, I'm going to believe they havn't been changed.Phil.

Phatmike Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 Phil, they definately have changed mate - as previously said, the older ones were noticabley higher rise. I know, I've owned both (and want the older ones back!). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Garland Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 My adamant bars, which are same as new Zoo ones, are ok, but I do prefer my mates older Zoo! ones. Seeing as deng has so many companies he could surely release the Zoo bars as they were, Echo low rise and then keep the Adamant in between.

UrbanLegend Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 110% they have changed, I don't care what Deng SAYS, the fact of the matter is they have!I have the really old original ones with hollow "Zoo" logos, rather than filled in. They have a much higher rise than the new ones, and are the best bars I've ever used!The new ones have a solid logo and are far lower, and I do believe a tad wider. I was on a group ride today, 90% of us had Zoo bars and it was VERY easy to see the differences.So Dengola must have been on a fag break whilst his factory churned out some different bars or something. Phil, if I were you I would tell Deng to keep an eye on his workers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
