_im_from_earth Posted June 2, 2011 Posted June 2, 2011 Will that Sukuma ever go into production ? Looks promising and is something that I would consider. Then again you can get a snyper 140mm on Chain for about 11K at the moment. Pricing will be interesting. Its in production! Tube molds have been opened... hydroforming mould is heating up... CNC jiggs are being made... I can hear the whizzing I think the spark of welding machines will commence by the end of July. These puppies should be hitting the shelves at the end of August/ beginning of September. Unfortunately too late in the season to spend a month in the Alps, but perfect timing to disappear in Karkloof for a few weeks. Please don't expect quick email responses from me at this time, I will invariably be sic and away from the office

SURFER Posted July 29, 2011 Posted July 29, 2011 One more owner, Zula Previous had a Scott scale HT. Must say that the Scott was much faster, but will not swop the Zula, way more comfortable and easier on technical stuff.

I’m sure the Zula is quicker on everything else?

SURFER Posted July 29, 2011 Posted July 29, 2011 Much faster on what? climbing and flat jeep? I’m sure the Zula is quicker on everything else? Zula faster on any technical surfcae (downhill, flat or uphill) HT faster on jeep(downhill, flat or uphill. Unfortunately more than 60% of my rides is jeep type of track. Above opinion is only a comment, not looking for argument, will never go back to HT
