ZR – Update of the year
Nevertheless we have been thinking for a long time, „What can we do to make our race bike better?“ After looking the bike over we went into the shop and after a few weeks this is what rolled out ...
The all new Toxy ZR. A combination of super dynamics, maximum speed, and an even more comfortable seating position. Since the ZR went into production six years ago it has f
ascinated everyone with its ability to accelerate and speed that they were able to ride. And with its rear suspension and the way it handles it is able to be used on race tracks, roads and trails all over the world, no matter what condition the surface is in.
Precise tracking, a small turning radius, and an unbelievably comfortable ride are just a few reasons to take a Toxy ZR on your next ride. And with the aerodynamic speedbag you can take the ZR on your next bicycle vacation and see more in less time.
Once we had the ZR in the shop the first thing we did was look to see where we could save a little weight. In the rear swing we now use a super light precision ball bearing assembly (- 120 grams). The axle is made with a high grade aluminum and welded direct to the mono arm (- 155 grams). And with an optimal tube dimension we saved another 235 grams.
We also found a way to save weight by shortening the chain (- 70 grams). Because of the chain we were able to move
the chain guide up for
15
mm more leg room. At the same time a new pedal roller gives
15
% more turning radius that makes the ZR even better in the curves.
A new modified seat angle with a double sided holder lets you adjust the seat quickly for better aerodynamics. With the right adjustment you can have up to 10 % less wind drag.

For even more comfort we equipped the ZR with a wider aluminum handlebar that really makes a difference on the long rides.
It does not matter if you are riding in the Alps , in the Race Across America, or the 1500 km of the Paris-Brest-Paris you will notice the lightweight of the ZR Update 2006 (over 500 grams less than the original) and the 15 % more comfort through the better seating position, more leg room, and a better turning radius. With all the „little changes“you get even more speed, aerodynamics, and super racing results.
We can continue to tell you about all the things we have done but the bottom line is as simple as this. You get even more Toxy ZR for your money.
Once you ride the ZR you will not be able to get over the fascination of the speed you will reach and the distance you will be able to hold this speed because of aerodynamics and comfort.
Those that want even less weight have the option of ordering a ZR with the Toxy Lite W8 package. The components are made up of a carbon fiber seat, air shock, Stronglight Vulcan crank set, and 20 " system wheels. With this package the ZR weighs 10 ,7 kg.
The basis model is already built for racing with a light oversized frame and disc brakes that makes it look like it is already in motion even while it is standing still.
