For Morewoodkid or anyone else in the know...

 

What size seat post will a Zula take?

I am asking because I have a carbon Easton post which is 30.9 mm in diameter.

 

What is the (more or less) waiting period on a Zula? How much deposit is needed?

I want to buy one for my birthday in a little over a years time and would like to know how long beforehand to put in an order.

 

Thanks,

Ray

There are a few being built at The Epic Bike Store.

Pictures dont do them justice. They have to be seen in the flesh to be REALLY appreciated.

there are a couple at the Epic Bike Store, and Lance knows everything about these bikes.... only problem is they based in Plumstead, Cape Town. But I would still recommend you give him a call
