Quote from: pickle on February 29, 2016, 07:34 AMNo race bike should ever have 990 lugs on it in my opinion You'd be surprised how many NBL and ABA mains were won with bikes that had 990 lugs. Ed, its not a race bike. Start and end of it. Saying that everyone builds Zimas the same. Id sugest it needs Sens forks, 2pc bars, and 2 pegs on the one side. Build it into a proper mid trails / street / park bike, not a tank for tanks sakes.

In one of the interviews ride mag did with Steve I'm sure he mentions doing the normal type of fork pictured further up the thread. I reckon it would look killer with those forks, straight rear cable, front potts mod, pegs one side & a set of slam bars
Here's Sen's forks ... never seen Zima forks like this before [ Attachment: You are not allowed to view attachments ]
don't build a race bike build a trails bike, 2pc bars etc Steve always rode 2pc bars, it was build for trails his dad told me him self
👌 and how I would have built it! don't run a boa tho get some ad lugs brazied onto the forks be different

I still think you should do a fairly basic build up of it. It's a prototype so build it like a test rig Bare metal, mismatched parts & nothing too blingy on it! That said, you'll make it look good whatever you do with it
