just weld your zebdi back up. if i remember they are steel, maybe alum? i think they are alum. nevermind, why not try a echo pure? none of those have cracked.

It depends on what style of riding you are doing. The 5.0 should be extremely strong by the way.

5.0 is a pure trials, long frame. THe Zebdi is more of a do-it-all frame, but I don't think you'll really notice the difference unless you are an expert.

thanks for your input, its not for me ill just stick with my zebdi till it kills me, its for a friend whos got a barracuda subway frame at the moment, and the bt raven is only about 218 pounds so hes considering it.

no one knows what the BT Raven 5.0 is like considering theres only 1 in the UK. At planetX everyone knows their is a rush as all the frames are snapping. Any frame must be better than the PlanetX zeb, even a subway. BT 5.0 is a pure frame whereas the PX is a street frame with XC geo. Id defo go with the BT raven 5.0 not because i know what the BT frame is like, but because i know how bad the planetX is. Also my opinion is based upon the quality of the Raven 4.0. Id recast the votes if i was you..

why not look into Zoo! or Echo? Echo's are very nice.
