Used Product For 6 Months Strengths Everything Weaknesses NONE Similar Products Used Prototype Python... Review A very strong frame. A nice high BB, good for UCI trials also the 1045mm wheelbase helps in UCI. This bike will never let you down. www.zoobike.com www.craigleescott.co.uk

Used Product For 1 Month Strengths Very long wb, super low stand over, strong and riding, cool looks... Weaknesses Bit heavy (comapared to XTP) Similar Products Used Owned: Brisa B20 (04), Monty X-Lite, tested few others (Level boss, XTP mods...) Review I have the newer (05) frame which sports new CNC plates around BB area and no bashplate design. The bike has Louise disc brake on front and industrial stantard 05 HS-33 on rear. Bike was assembled with various Echo parts. New Echo rims that are CNC lathed instead of drilled are superb! Rear rim has very tall walls and is made of better alloy than TryAll rims. The ZOO! brake pads have superb lock and modulation on smooth rim with slight tar on it. Pads feel bit soft and obviously are not made for ground rims. Bars/stem combo is quite unusual. Quite low ZOO! Stem combined with ZOO! Riser bars. These bars feel quite strange at first, but as soon as I got used to them, they feel very good. Bars are quite wide, I measured 76cm/29.9" tip-to-tip. The bike feels super stable, almost like stock bikes! I have improved loads since buying this bike. The long wheelbase (1050mm with chain on correct tighness) lenght of Python is really spot on design! It gives superb handling and reach over the obstacles. Python has quite long rear end but that's not an issue because some how the longer wheelbase makes rear end feel super short. Bike is stable on rear wheel, but still hasn't got that "looping out" feel of super short chainstays. ZOO! Python sports quite high BB and this gives a slightly different feel while trackstanding. This is the best mod bike out there! Give it a go! Excellent build quality, superb parts, great feel!
