Sorry to hear get well soon! Another very fast West Coast Pro has converted to Zerode. he brought the bike to Mammoth and listed his Demo for sale on the way home! Brought the 2 builds into the studio today. So have some real images finally.....

"Trim your brake hose."
That always takes the wind out of a proud new owner's sails.

That bikes awesome and Eddie masters getting sideways with sandals on aboard a zerode also is awesome.
I agree and on that note here are some action shots.....of some Zerodes I have owned. Me shooting not riding.
I'm 70kg. Happy with the 180mm rear. It's been on for ages. I bedded it in with Organic pads. The front I gave up on, as I'd bedded it in with sintered pads, and I had a race on, and wanted better performance. Just put it back on and did a few runs today on organic pads and it seemed good enough to race tomorrow. I'll report back later. Haven't had to brake hard,, this is were the front was weak before.
^I've been DH racing 203mm Kettles with Formula organic pads. Good enough performance for my 170lbs.
Do you mean the G1?
There's now 3 sizes of G2. Check the Zerode site for measurements, they're on there.
Are you looking for this one...
What about 105kg.........Are you looking for this one...
I weigh 212 LBS and run a 550 LBS spring....so you would probably be at 600 maybe 650.
I'd be really interested in riding one of these. Seems like a pretty sweet setup.
MY god. those zerodes are CRAZZZZZY short in the reach. That large is smaller than almost every medium!
only the older ones, the new G2 is bigger. 425 reach on the new large i believe. (im happy at 6nothin)
425 is still kinda short for a large.
Yeah, same reach as my medium trail bike.
Also the same reach as a large canfield
Not saying its for nba basketball players but ive found it just the same as the other large bikes ive owned. Does head angle factor into reach-perhaps because of the slacker head angles?

Yeah I am 6' 2" with shoes the LG is good. I am riding the MD for the next few weeks. See how she feels. Is you bike like a 500 reach or what since you are closing in on 7'....
SAPA couldn't make the frames any longer not sure about new outfit but have a feeling its the same dealio. The top tube shape was the issue.

Finally got my G2 built up...
This bike rocks!

Lovely, but does it hold a candle to your Straight 8? That bike gave me some serious boners in high school.
I'm shrinking these days :'(
I finally got my hands on a set of Dorados. My bike is complete, for now.
I've only had a short pedal around since the Dorados went on, I have a feeling this bike is going to be very sweet indeed.

i only see one fork in that pictures.
those legs are naked. need some trousers.
I noticed the same thing, the medium is tiny and the large is smaller than every medium I've owned!
The large frame doesn't look small when built up though, I wonder if something is amiss in the numbers. Personally I check fit by taking the hypotenuse between reach and stack, the L zerode still comes up short when you do that - but I'd be curious to put a tape measure to one to see if it was actually bigger than the numbers suggest.
I've been riding L in various frames lately and have been enjoying it even at 6', it sucks how limited the choices must be at your height. Price you pay for dwarfing the mortals I suppose.
I'm 5'11 and love the medium G2. I'd say I even would prefer it stayed as short as the G1. Guess I like a smaller bike. The Zerodes stability and smoothness maybe makes a difference. I had a 6'4" mate who loved his G1, even bought another when they went to anodized. Plenty of tall dudes on the medium G1 and happy.
Each to their own.
Looks good with the Doradoes Rider77. Always wanted to try them. Makes for a reliable bike you have there.
