zion 660 frame 4130 steel
marz xc700 - did have sids but way too flexy
juicy 5s
token carbon cranks
tioga wheelset with carbon hubs bit heavy but very cheap will do until i can afford somethin better
rest of the parts r a mix of lx & xt

Nice bike. I've never heard of Zion. Are you racing it, If so I bet it's the only one out there.

cheers guys yeh been a bit lazy 11months wow porn sites have alot to answer for:rolleyes:
the forks r xc700 coil sprung 100mm theyre a bit on the heavy side but theyre super plush & stiff & cheap like most of the components on the bike i think i picked em up for $350 from jenson in a closeout sale

WOW, that is one of the nicest XC bike I have ever seen. I have never heard of a Zion, but I like what I see.

It looks great, just the whole frame design and colour. As someone said before, yes you would be the only one with one of these, you don't ever see any.

Great bike.
