Post by: Mattdub on March 18, 2013, 10:51 AM: Very cool Nick :daumenhoch: , great line up ;) .

Coming back to the geometry ref the PP and ZX3 , the PP headtube angle looks quite a bit steeper than the ZX3 in those pics . I remember riding a mates PP bitd & the headtube angle was super steep making the steering freaky fast ! ;D .

It's an optical illusion to some extent as the rear wheel on the PP isn't sat fully on the bike stand as the hub/rear dropout spacing does not allow the bike to sit fully on the stand. They should both be at MK so you can have a look at them both together :daumenhoch:
