I picked up a Zeta 2 for my short commute through town. Thought I’d do a quick review and share some thoughts.
I tend to buy quirky and/or independent brand bikes.. I’m a serial Stooge buyer after all. When I spotted this I figured I’d have to give it a go.
I think the quality let’s it down, but the principle of a mini velo really appeals to me. I might look into something a little more bespoke for the future with a proper spec.
I love the look of the mini velos.
I keep talking myself out of getting a Velo Orange Neutrino, I reckon it'd be a hoot to commute on.
Still lust after a cannondale hooligan, but resale prices are silly...
Give me a Dawes Kingpin or Raleigh shopper any day
I don't get it, the wheels are tiny, but not so it can fold?
So all the downsides of a folder without the benefits.
uncomfortable ride on anything but smooth tarmac, you'll have to book ahead if you want to take it on a train and unfinished welding under the BB...
Your review has convinced me never to buy one, thankyou...
Also Who is "Brendan Kerr"?
Yay, mini velo thread. Bloody love this kind of thing. Keep them coming.
I initially wanted a Hooligan, but they are so hard to find and the premium is crazy now!
The Velo Orange Neutrino looks perfect, but the geometry is decidedly 'old school'- I;d probably go for a Marino custom build to get it a bit slacker and longer.

Pretty much! It's good fun though. It's like a BMX with gears, so it's pretty playful. I did a 10 mile ride and that was starting to become a chore on the mixed riding I did. It would be perfect for town riding though.
Brendan/Bernard, who cares.. he's one of those sick riders with bags of skills that I don't have.
